A PASTOR SAVED BY PE-RU-NA. > ilsirncMvoLy f Rev. IT. Stubenvoll, of Elkhom, Wis., is pastor of the Evangelical Lutheran St John’s Church of that place. Kcv. Stubenvoll is the possessor of two bibles presented to him by Emperor William of Germany. Upon the ily leaf of one of the biblesthe Emperor has written in his own handwriting a. text. This honored pastor, in a recent letter to The 1’eruna Medicine Co., of Colum bus, Ohio, says concerning their famous catarrh remedy, I’eruna: The Peruna Medicine Co., Columbus, Ohio. Gentlemen: “I had hemorrhages of the lungs for a long time, and all despaired of me. I took Peruna and was cured. It gave me strength and courage, and made healthy, pure blood. It increased my weight, gave me a healthy color, and I feel well. It is the best medicine in the world. If everyone kept Peruna In the house It would save many from death every year.”—H. STUBENVOLL. Thousands of people have catarrh who would lie surprised to know it, because it has been called some other name than catarrh. The fact is catarrh is catarrh wherever located; and another fact which isof equally great importance, is that l’eruna cuies catarrh wherever located. If you go not derive prompt ana satis factory results from the use of l’eruria, 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.

Was Often Ni / Washington During the Fighting of the Civil War How He Sent a Lock of Hair to President Lincoln. John S. Mosby, well known as the commander of a guerrilla band in the service of the Confederacy during the war of the States, who is now a spe cial employe of the Department of the Interior, showed a willingness to talk about his war-time experience to a re porter a day or two ago. The latter inquired into the truth of a story that he had entered Alexandria in disguise and had engaged in some dare-devil trick. "Oh, that story is all nonsense,” said Col. Mosby, "I never went to a place in disguise in my life. These stories arose because of the rapid movements of my command. Why, there is an official telegram on file in the WTar Department stating that I was in Washington in conference with Wilkes Booth the r.ight of the kill ing of President Lincoln. It is need less to say that the statement was known to be false by most of the Fed eral generals. “Yes, I frequently got close to Washington during the war. Many a time 1 would ride up to the hill up yonder across the Potomac and look down upon the city. 1 might have one or two men with me, and we would soou disappear. Just over on the Virginia side early one morning I met a Mrs. Barlow on her way intd vv cirs ii i II i on wiiu a wu^au iuu m vegetables. Her husband was a Fed eral soldier and she was a Northern woman. She had a pass to go in and out of Washington and drove into the city often from her farm. I used to go to her house often and get a cup of good coffee. Of course, she gave it to us, knowing that we rather had charge of things all along that side of the river. Well, on this particular morning Mrs. Barlow had a pair of scissors hanging from her apron. Af ter I had talked with her awhile I said: “ ‘Mrs. Barlow, lend me your scis sors.’ ‘‘She handed them to me, and I reached up to my head, got hold of a bunch of hair, cut it off and said: ‘Mrs. Barlow, please take this lock of hair right into Lincoln, and say to him that I am coming in to see him soon, and will expect a lock of his hair in return. She looked much puzzled, but she said she would do it. , “I found out afterward that she rode rtraight to the White House and gave the hair to the President personally, refusing to give it to any one else. The President was amused and laughed heartily. No, I was not at raid to do this, because I knew that by the time the President could at tempt to catch me, 1 would be thirty miles away. President Lincoln never made an attempt to catch me. because he knew that l would be soihewhere else when his men arrived. Many peo ple took information of me into Wash ington for the purpose of trying to Lring about my capture. "I covered the entire south side of the Potomac for many miles each way. and the largest number of men l had was in 18C>4, when Sheridan was in the Shenandoah valley, was five troops of cavalry, a total of 250 men. With that command we captured all the arms we needed, ail the ammuni tion, food and clothing, and had a wagon train running to Lee’s army frequently with supplies we had cap tured. No, I was never a general. I was a private in the First Virginia Cavalry for the first two years of the war, and began raising my command alter that time, beginning with one troop of cavalry. Each man was ermed with two pistols and a sabre. We had no carbines.” A Higher Position. A Scotchman had reached the sum mlt of his ambitions, in attaining to the magisterial bench. The honoi seemed to be a great one, and he tried to live up to it. With his head high in the air he swaggered along till he went bolt up against a cow which had not the man uerB to get out of the way, but con tinued to browse by the roadside in mild unconcern. “Mon,” cried the indignant owner ‘mind my coo!” “Woman,” he replied, with fine dignity. “I’m no longer a men. I'm a baillie.” Jokers in Debt to Sydney Smith. When the celebrated physician Sii Henry Holland told Sydney Smith that he had failed to kill either one oi a brace of pheasants that had risen within easy range near the latter’s home, the witty divine asked: “Whj did you not prescribe for them?” Ont day Sir Henry was engaged in a ho. argument with “Bobus” Smith, a bar rister, concerning the merits of theii lespective professions. “You wil acimlt,” said Sir Henry, "that youi profession does not make angels o. \ men.” “No,” retorted Smith, “then you have the best of it.” Satisfaction. Admiral Sir William Kennedy o: the British navy tells a story of « boatswain who, when he left the navy 1 paid a boy sixpence a week to wakt him every morning at 4 o’clock ( “What did you do that for?” asked Si. i William. “Well, sir,” said the boat 1 swain, “it’s for a bit o’ satisfaction. 1 gets the boy to tell me The captaii | wants you,’ and I say: 'Go and tel , the captain to be d-’ ” It Never Fea:cd Her.

"I wish those geese would not cackle so loud,” remarked Menzel to his friend, who was sitting at the opposite side of the table, where upon one of the geese seized the op portunity for introducing herself, and, stepping up to him. raid in a tone that showed she was not in the least of fended: “Might I ask you to give me that in writing?” Napkins. Napkins became popular in France sooner than in England. At one time it was customary at great French din ners to change the napkins at every course, to perfume them with rose water and to have them folded a differ way for each guest.

Marinoni, who has Just retired owing to old age, has had a mo-, picturesque career. In his young days he was a printer wit-i no money, but . eas. It was with the in tention of proving what a novel print ing press of his could do rather than of becoming a newspaper proprietor that ho started the Petit Journal, the first sou paper ever published in Paris. The Petit Journal, however, prospered beyond all expectations and its circu lation soon exceeded 1,000,000 copies a day. SI OO Reward OlOO.

The Chinese representative at Wash ington, in a recent dispatch to Peking, stated that some of the Chinese stu dents in the United States had begun to cut off their queues ami to assume foreign to thes in lieu of the flowing garb of tne Clestiai empire, as a mat ter of convenience while residing in the great republic. His excellency was iustructed that the queue was the badge of their nationality and its aho .»iton an infringement of the laws of the Manehue dynasty. As the result, the students have been ordered to re sume the wearing of the queue, on pain of being sent nack to China to be punished. n ATCIITO SUES * CO.. Omaha, Nebr. I J4 1 tiw I ill Eve IhIoh.
