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.

No Evidence of Rotation Here.
Of the 350 and odd members of the
present national house, 283 have re
nominated and are running for re-elec
tion. This does not indicate the ex
istence of any pronounced disposition
on the part of the people to apply the
rotation principle.
Hundreds of dealers say the extra
quantity and superior quality of I)eii

all other brands. Others say they
cannot sell any other starch.
It is always better to concede some
thing than to insist on a demand that
is both just and merciless.
IN GUERRILLA DATS
JOHN S. MCSBY TELLO OF SOME
OF HIS EXPLOITS.
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.

boatswain who, when he left the navy 1
paid a boy sixpence a week to wakt

“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

He Started Penny Journalism.
The originator of halfpenny journal

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.

Cure is tho only positive cure now known to the

acting directly upon the blood and mucous sur
faces of the system, thereby destroying the
foundation of the disease, and giving the patient
