CAUGHT BY THE GRIP. RELEASED BY PE-RU-WA. Congressman Geo. H. White’s Case. A Noted Sculptress Cured. ! i_ ♦ ———— | The world X of medicine ♦ t recognizes | Grip as epi X demic ca | tarrh.— \ ♦ Medical Talk. LA GRIPPE is epidemic cattarrh. It spares no class or nationality. The cultured and the ignorant, the aris tocrat and the pauper, the masses and the classes are alike subject to la grippe. None are exempt—all are liable. Have you the grip ? Or, rather, has the grip got you ? Grip is well named. The original French term, la grippe, has been shortened by the busy Ameri can to read grip* Without intending to do so a new word has been coined that exactly describes the case. As if some hideous giant with awful GRIP had clutched us in its fatal clasp. Men, women, child ren, whole towns and cities are caught in the baneful grip of a terrible monster. Pe-rn-n* for Grip. Mrs. Theophile Schmitt, wife of the Ex-Secretary of the German Consulate, writes the following letter from 3417 Wabash avenue, Chicago, 111.: "1 suffered this winter with a severe attack of la grippe. After using three bottles of Peruna 1 found the grip had dis appeared. " Mrs. T. Schmitt. Mrs. Celeste Coveil writes from 219 N. avenue, Aurora, 111.: "Only those who have suffered with la grippe and been cured can appreciate how grateful I feel that such a splendid medicine as Peruna has been placed at the door of every suffering person. "—Mrs. C. Coveil. Noted Sculptress Cared of Grip. Mrs. M. C. Cooper, of the Royal Acad emy of Arts, of London, England, now residing in Washington, D. C., is one of the greatest living sculptors and painters of the world. She says: "I take pleasure in recommending Peruna for catarrh and la grippe. 1 have suffered for months, and after the use of one bottle 1 of Peruna I am entirely well.' ’—Mrs. M. C. Cooper. D. L. Wallace, a charter member of the International Barber's I’nion, writes from IS Western avenue, Minneapolis, Minn.: "Following a severe attack of la grippe I seemed to be affected badly all over. "One of my customers who was greatly helped by Peruna advised me to try it, and 1 procured a bottle the same day. Now my head is clear, my nerves are steady, I enjoy food and rest well. Peruna has been worth a dollar a dose to me."—D. L. Wallace. Lieutenant Clarice Hunt, of the Salt Lake City Barracks of the Salvation Army, writes from Ogden, Utah : "Two months ago I was suffering with so severe a cold that 1 could hardly speak. "Our captain advised me to try Peruna and procured a bottle for me, and truly it worked wonders. Within two weeks 1 was entirely well."—Clarice Hunt. Congressman White's letter. Tarboro, N. C. Gentlemen: — / am more than satis fied with Peruna and find It to be an excellent remedy for the grip and ca tarrh. I have used It Ik my family and they all Join me In recommending It as an excellent remedy.”—George H. White, Member of Congress. Mrs. T. W. Collins, Treasurer Inde pendent Order of Good Templars, of Everett, Wash., writes: "After having a severe attack of la grippe I continued in a feeble condition even after the doctors called me cured. My blood seemed poisoned. Peruna cured me."— Mrs. T. W. Collins. If you do not derive prompt and satis factory results from the use of Peruna, write at once to Dr. Hartman, giving a full state ment of your case and he will be pleased fo give you his valuable advice gratis.

These remedies are at most physics and do absolutely no good. In fact they frequently provoke piles i fistula, female disorders and many cases of appendicitis are traceable to j their use.

R'iBBRia Maple Street, Norwich, N. Y., Feb. 17. 1000. Lieutenant General W. G. Dunham Massy, colonel of the 5th Royal Irish Lancers, who presided at tho welcome home dinner to the regiment in Lon don, recently, had a sobriquet once that can hardly be forgotten yet. For years after 1855 he was known as "Redan Massy,” by reason that on a memorable 8th of September this “orff'eer boy,” as our friend Mulvaney would have called him, had led an as sault of his own upon the Russian out works at Sebastopol. He was 17, per haps, then, and this first commission was not a year old. He was so badly hurt—a ball had smashed his left thigh—that the Rus sians left him for dead, and when his own people much later on recovered him, he was only just alive. But he, lived through a six months’ confine ment to "a camp stretcher,” and the primitive surgery of those days, to command first the Royal Irish Lan cer^ then, in Roberts’ Afghan cam paign, a cavalry brigade at Charasia and Sherpur; and, by and by. the gar rison of Ceylon. And he is just a C. B. like another, though he has the Le gion, and his old University of Dublin gave him his LL. D. He is a soldier’s son, and a soldier's son-in-iaw; an Irishman born, with a family place in Tipperary, where he is to be found a good deal oftener than in Pall Mall, and where the “Redan Massy” of the far-off days he brings so near finds his chief delight in the peaceful business of the architect and the horticulturist. Professor Morisanl of Naples uni versity, who holds the position of physician to Queen Helena, of Italy, Is both in stature and proportions the most diminutive doctor in the world.

Traveling Man Tells of Experience Which Points a Moral for Business Man—Superciliousness Lost Shaky Firm a Profitable Order. They were discussing the various types of people whom they encounter ed in their travels, and the consensus of opinion expressed by six drummers was that “white" treatment—that Is, politeness—was never lost when ex erted on a traveling man. The stout man, who represented a fur house, had the floor. “This talk,” he satd, “reminds me of a little incident that occurred las.' season. Hopkins was taken suddenly ill, and the firm sent word to me to cover a part of his route until he got in shape again. Naturally, I was strange to the country and to the peo ple, but I got along fairly well until I reached Seattle. There I found a letter of introduction from the firm. There were a lot of furs there which the firm had been informed could ba had for a bargain. It seems two rival Arms had gotten hold of the skins, and I was to use my judgment as to which firm I should trade with. “It was a novel experience for me. I had been accustomed to selling furs, not buying them, and naturally I felt my importance. It was a matter of about $26,000, too, and I mentally pic- i tured the attack of heart disease I would give the members of one or the other firm when I placed my order. I I cuval tot IIIV *. III I dIH r 1IIIU lilt? HlUItT, pictured the offhand way in which I would examine the furs and criticise them. I even had the scene down to j such a fine point that I had the words all chosen to utter between puffs of a cigar—nothing like a cigar, you know, to show nonchalance! "Well, I started out early next day. I bad the cards of the rival firms in my pocket, and as I looked them over idly wondered which I would go to first. One was, say Brown & Jones, and the other was Smith & Waters. •'Brown & Jones was the nearer to my hotel, so I walked over there, in flating my chest as I entered the place. It was a dark, cavernous sort ot store, and I almost groped my way to the rear, between piles of furs. There seated in an easy chair, with his feet cocked upon a desk, sat a young man. Ho wore an incipient mustache and a look of insufferable arrogance. “ 'Well, what do you want?” he asked. "He placed an exasperating accent upon the ‘you.’ I felt ray chest de crease In circumference, and at the same time my innate anger arose. Here I came to do this house a great business service and “However, I smothered my anger, produced the firm's card and asked, meekly as I could, ‘Is this Brown & Jones’?’ “ ‘Yes,’ he snarled rather than re plied, ’I’m Mr. Jones. What do you want?’ “For the second time the query was insultingly put. I longed to tell him what I wanted, but controlled my feel ings. “ ‘I don’t think I want anything from you,’ I said simply, and walked out of the store. "At Smith & Waters’ I received bet ter treatment. I placed the order with them and went back to my hotel with an invitation to dine with one of the firm that night. "Before my trip ended I learned that Brown & Jones had failed for a con siderable sum. Perhaps my order would have tided them o\er thrugh the crisis. At any rate, I am vindic tive enough to be glad of their failure. That little word ‘you’ was the greatest insult I ever received.”—New York Mail and Express. Automobile Sea Scouts. As military motor bicycles have al ready proved themselves to be of value in scouting it is probable that in near ly every civilized country they will be largely used in future land warfare. Why, if the fast land scout prove so useful, should not the navy adopt the same methods? A boat, sixty feet long, with two twenty-five horse power engines, built very light, to carry, say, four persons, and to be capable of con siderable speed, would be a most use ful addition to a battleship or a fleet. The ordinary torpedo boat is too long and draws too much water for scout ing near shore or in shallow water, but a launch might be made to draw less than three feet of water and yet have a speed of upward of thirty knots. There would be no funnels or smoke to attract the notice of the en emy, and with underwear exhaust the boat might be made almost silent. If built low in the \fater or with the power of semi-submersion, it would be difficult for the enemy to observe, and still more difficult to hit. Probably such a craft would be more useful than anything yet Invented in the way of a scout for sea purposes.—London Star. — Hard Work Always Wins. “I have faith in volition. I believe that, by means of a strong will, a person, not physically or morally in capacitated for a particular pursuit, will eventually succeed in the voca tion, to obtaining excellence in which he or she has set himself or herself with all his or her soul and strength. I do not believe in failures—accidents, of course, always excepted—in the case of those who work hard, indefat Igably and hopefully.—Q. A. Sala.

Rockiule.Trx., Dee. 30,1902. — "When I received the trial package of Doan's Kidney Pills I could not get out of bed without help. I lmd severe pains in the small of my baek. The Pills helped me at once, and now after three weeks the pain in my baek is all gone and I ara no longer annoyed with baying to get up often during the night as formerly. I can not speak too highly for what Doan’s Kid ney Pills have done for me. I am now ft7 years old, have tried a great many medi cines, hut nothing did the work until l used Doan's Kidney Pills.”—James R.

A rare tract by Sir William Seagur, Norroy king-at arms, printed in 1602. describes the Earl of Cumberland's Induction into the office of "Peculiar Champion to Queen Elizabeth.” This took place at the annual "feat of arms" held on the queen's birthday. Sir Henry Lea, who was the origin ator of the celebration, removed his armor and presented the Earl of Cum berland to her majesty, praying her to accept him as her knight. On her signifying her acceptance the old champion armed the new, and put a cap and coat of velvet upon himself, while one of her majesty's servants sang a song of which one stanza runs: “My helmet now shall make a hive for bees, And lovers’ songs shall he my holy psalms; A man at arms must now sit on his knees And feed on prayers which are old age's alms. And so from court to cottage I depart.; My saint is sure of mine unspotted heart.” To the housewife who has not yet be come acquainted with the new things of everyday use In the market and who Is r<asonably satisfied with the old, we would suggest that a trial of Defiance Cold Water Starch be made at once. Not alone because It Is guaranteed tiy the manufacturers to be superior to any other brand, but because each Wc pack age contains 16 ozs., while all the other kinds contain 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. Brighton will next year observe the fiftieth anntveisary of an event that stirred the whole of the religious world ! in England, and moved that of Brigh i ton itself to its depths. That event was the death of the Rev. W. F. Rob ertson, famous as "Robertson of Brighton.” His ministry at the Holy Trinity church in Ship street had only ! lasted six years, and he was not yet 38, when death took him; but his fame, considerable in life, has since ' been enormously augmented by the i publication of his sermons, and also by the "Life” so sympathetically writ ten by Mr. Stopford Brooke. Indeed, so truly may it be said of him that he is still a living force that It will, doubtless, surprise many to know that nearly half a century has passed since his death. It occurred at midnight on 1 Sunday, August 15, 1853. I The municipal progressiveness of Glasgow Is forever showing new sides. At the police stations there Is not only a room for lost children, but a tub for strayed fish. A fresh water trout, we read, was seen drifting on the harbor surface at Broomielaw in a sickly condition, “but quickly revived on be ing placed in a bath of fresh water at the police station.” It is not clear that the detention was wholly thera peutic. So reckless an invasion of the lower Clyde, besides being ill-advised, for obvious reasons, may easily have contravened one of Glasgow’s numer ous regulations. But If salmo trutta comes before the baillie, it will surely be allowed that the offender has al ready undergone sufficient punishment. Life would hardly be worth living if one could not forget with some dis crimination. Small things talk loud to the In dian’s eye. Thought She Would Go Crazy. Hulls, 111., Jan. 2Gth.—”1 couldn’t sit longer than five minutes In one place. I was always tired, but could not rest or sleep. I couldn’t help crying and feeling that something awful was Just about to happen. I thought I would go crazy.” In this way does Mrs. A. M. Fysh of this place tell of the Ill ness from which she has Just recov ered. Mrs. Fysh’s case was remarkable. If she fell asleep she would wake up frightened, her mouth dry and her nerves all worked up. She was lone some and melancholy even when sur rounded by loving friends. Her bones ached. She had to make water four or five times every night. She was constipated. She had a voracious ap petite, yet was always hungry between meals. She coughed up a great deal of white phlegm. She heard of Dodd’s Kidney Pills and after using them says: “By the time I had taken five boxes I was a new woman. 1 can not tell how much good they did for me. Be fore using Dodd’s Kidney Pills life was such a drag to me. Now I can do my work and feel glad that I have work to do. I am completely restored.” Happiness depends not on the things the heart has but on the heart that has the things. The teraperalure of the heart can not be gaged by the head. / THE LADY WHO IRONS Knows how important it b to use a good starch. Defiance Starch is the best starch made. It doesn't stick to the iror.
