' SUFFERED SEVEN YEARS
With Catarrhal Derangements of the
♦ Pelvic Organs.
Hundreds of Dollars
Spent in Ya?n***Pe»
ru-na Cured.
V Miss Kate Browix. \
Miss Kate Brown, Recording Secre
tary of the L. C. B. Association of Kan
sas, in a letter from 60S N. Seventh si.,
Kansas City, Kansas, says:
“Por seven years / have not known
what It was to spend a well day.
I caught a severe cold which I neglected.
It was at the time of menstruation and
inflammation set in and prostrated me.
Catarrh of the kidneys and bladder fol
lowed, my digestive organs gave way,
in fact the cold disarranged my whole
system.
**/ spent hundreds of dollars with
doctors and medicine, but derived but
little benefit until 1 began treatment
with Perurta. I kept taking it for nearly
nine months before I was completely
cured, but 1 kept growing better gradu
ally so that I felt encouraged tocontinue
taking Peruna until my health was re
stored. I send my thanks and blessings
— I —w *
to you for Peruna.”—Miss Kate Brown.
A neglected cold is frequently the
cause of death.
It is more often, however, the cause
of some chronic disease.
There is not an organ in the hody but
what is liable to become seriously do
ranged by a neglected cold. Diseases of
the kidneys, bladder and digestive or
gans are all frequently the result of a
neglected cold.
Hundreds of dollars are spent on doc
torsand medicines trying to cure these
diseases, but until the true cause of
them is discovered, there will be no
use in using medicine.
Dyspepsia medicine, diarrheca medi
cine and constipation medicine is of no
good whatever when catarrh is the
cause. The catarrh must be treated.
The cause being removed, the derange
ments will disappear.
I’eruua cures catarrh of the digestive
organs, the urinary organs or any of
the internal organs.
1 f you do not derive prompt and satis
factory results from the use of Peruna
write at once to Dr. Hartman, giving a
full statement of your case, and he will
be pleased to give you his valuable ad
vice gratis.

The Hartman Sanitarium, Columbus,O.

The Meat Inspector's Mistake.
In the Prussian town of Rappin, in
the province of Bramlenberg, there is
, an official, the overlapping of whose
duties has recently produced a remark
able complication. In one capacity he
is the inspector of butchers' meat, and
in another he has occasionally to place
the official seal on marriage certifl
cates. On one occasion he used the
wrong stamp, and instead of sealing
the nuptial contract he certified that
the spouses were—free from trichi
nosis. The high court of Berlin had
to be set in motion to rectify the error.
Loubet as a “Benevolent Poacher.”
President Loubet of France—“Papa
Emile,” as he is familiarly called—
has been hunting in the famous forests
of Rambouillet and Mardy, once the
I hunting grounds of kings. One who
saw him there recently describes him
in this way: Rifle in hand, pipe in
mouth, wearing an old blue velvet coat,
with his stout yellow gaiters drawn
tight over the solid, square-toed heav
ily nailed shoes, a dilapidated, easy
fitting soft hat thrown in picturesque
disorder on his head, he looks more
like a benevolent poacher than a pres
ident.
A man's good intentions would be
worth more if he could get them
cashed.
Helen Moon's Case.
New Providence, la., Oct. 13th.—
The wonderful case of little three
year-old Helen Moon continues to be
the talk of the neighborhood and ev
eryone is rejoicing with Mr. and Mrs.
E. V. Moon, the happy rather and
mother.
It will he remembered that this
sweet little girl was given up by the
doctors with Dropsy. She was so far
gone that her eyes were closed up and
her body bloated till it was purple.
After everything else had railed
Dodd's Kidney Pills wero used and to
the joy and surprise of everyone she
commenced to improve.
This improvement resulted in com
plete good health and she continues to
keep strong and well and without the
slightest symptom of the Dropsy left.
The doctors are as mucti bewildered
as anyone at the wonderful cure of
this desperate case.
Publicity is just about as fatal to
the trusts a* a pail of water is to the
duck.
Kill! MEN'S HOBBIES
MILLIONAIRES WHO SPEND FOR
TUNES YEARLY.
I Andrew Carnegie's Fad for Giving
Away Libraries Is Well Known—
Pierpont Morgan Has Large An
nual Dill for Paintings.
Given a million a year to spend at
pleasure, find something on which to
spend it. That is the proposition
which is met by multi-millionaires of
this country, England and Germany.
It is a peculiar fact that the men
who have this opportunity choose one
thing as the object of their expendi
tures.
The millionaires choose their hob
bies and they are as various as the
wealthy men are numerous. Apart
from the expenditures required in
business these millionaires spend
more on their hobbies than they do on
themselves personally.
Pierpont Morgan is credited with
an annual personal expenditure of
about $150,000, and his average an
nual bill for paintings is about $250,
000, not far from double what he
spends on himself. His entire collec
tions of famous paintings amounts to
200 pictures, and is valued at $10,
000,000.
Staveley Bruce, the English ship
ping and iron king, has made a spe
cialty of statuary, as well as paint
ings. The Italian laws forbidding the
exportation of art treasures has had
a peculiar effect on the collection of
Mr. Bruce. He is obliged to keep
$500,000 worth of statuary in Italian
cities. He adds a love for pictures to
that for statuary and seldom spends
less than $200,000 a year for paint
ings.
Mr. Carnegie’s fad, as is well
known, is the public library. He is
credited with handing out $15,000,000
annually in putting his preaching into
practice. I.ast year his gifts in this
direction amounted to $5,000,000 in
the United States. He gave in addi
tion $5,000,000 to English workmen
and $10,000,000 to Scotland. As he is
now giving away a good deal more
than hts income, which is $10,000,000
a year, he may be able to realize his
ambition to escape the “disgrace of
dying rich.” It has been computed
that at his present rate of giving it
will require twenty years before he
can become "poor.”
An English millionaire, another of
the throe multi-millionaires who give
away most of their income, is Mr.
Spillor, the cloth and cotton magnate.
His favorite amusement is a peculiar
one, and it has made him known as a
sort of fairy godfather to the poor
children of northern English towns.
He organizes and pays for huge treats
for slum children. The outings and
pleasure excursions he gives these
children cost him in the neighborhood
of $500,000 a year. In addition to this
he supports eight children’s hospitals
and orphanages. His hobby on the
betterment of poor children gives hrm
no time for any other amusement. He
lives in a fashion similar to that of a
well-to-do professional man, and
maintains but one establishment for
himself.
When the more personal amuse
ments of millionaires are considered,
it will be found that yachts and race
horses take the most of many a
wealthy man’s money. It has been
computed that eighteen men of great
wealth—American, English and of
other nationalities—spend the larger
part of their income on yachts. Sir
Thomas Lipton is among the best
known. He spent $000,000 on the cup
races alone. Col. McCalmont is an
other Englishman, a rival of Sir
Thomas, who spend a fortune on the
water. Aside from the royal yachts
men of Europe, it has been estimated
that the eighteen millionaires inter
ested in this sport spend about $20,
000,000 a year on their craft, and
that the value of the yachts foots up
to $55,000,000.
Fttveen millionaires spend their
mousy on racehorses. In this the
American again leads, and there are
two Amerienn turf millionaires to one
English. Lately the Americans have
had about their own way on the
English turf, as a result of their ex
penditures on racehorses. There is
some profit for the successful in turf
expenditures and big losses for the
unsuccessful.
American Flag Enough.
In response to a suggestion that a
flag should be adopted for the District
of Columbia corresponding to the vari
ous state flags District Commissioner
MacFarland said the other day: “The
American flag is the flag of the Dis
trict of Columbia. It has never had
any other. The states ha\ a state flags,
some of which are very much older
than the United States flag. But the
national flag seems to me ail suffi
cient for the national capital, which is
its special home. People in the district
have never been even tempted to di
vide allegiance between two flags and
ho such temptation should ever be of
fered.”
Miss Cleveland Runs a Farm.
Miss Rose Cleveland, the sister of
ex-President Cleveland, is a success
ful farmer. She now owns about one
half of a 700-acre island near Isles
boro, Me., having within a few days
acquired an additional tract of land.
Miss Cleveland has about 800 chick
ens, a large herd of cows and a big
vegetable garden on her island, where
she raises prize pumpkins, fat chick
ens and makes prime dairy butter. She
handles her aftairs herself, it is said,
but employs a large force of men.
There is but one other cottage on the
island.

Syrup of Figs appeals to the cultured and the
well-informed and to the healthy, because its com
ponent parts are simple and wholesome and be
cause it acts without disturbing the natural func
tions, as it is wholly free from every objectionable
quality or substance. In the process of
manufacturing figs are used, as they are
pleasant to the taste, but the medicinal
virtues of Syrup of Figs are obtained
from an excellent combination of plants
known to be medicinally laxative and to
act most beneficially.
To get its beneficial effects—buy the
genuine—manufactured by the

Kail's Family Fills are the best.
There is many; a sober word spoken
in drink.
To the housewife who has not yet
become acquainted with the new things
of everyday use in the market and who
is reasonably satisfied with the old,
we would suggest that a trial of De
fiance Cold Water Starch be made at
once. Not alone because it is guar
anteed by the manufacturers to be
superior to any other brand, but be
cause each 10c package contains
16 ozs., while all the other kinds con
tain but 12 ozs. It is safe to say that
the lady who once uses Defiance
Starch will use no other. Quality and
quantity must win.
The fool who rocks the boat gener
ally lives to regret it.
