DANGEROUS KIDNEY DISEASES CURED

of Chronic Ailments of the Kidneys.
Major T. H. Mars, of the First Wiscon
sin Cavalry regiment, writes from 1425
Dunning street, Chicago, 111., the following
letter:
••For years I suffered with catarrh of
ths kidneys contracted in the army.
Medicine did not help me any until a
comrade who had been helped by Pc
runa advised me to try It. I bought
some at once, and soon found blessed
relief. / kept taking it four months,
and am now well and strong and feel
better than / have done for the past
twenty years, thanks to Pcruna.”—
T. H. Mars.
At the appearance of the first symptom
of kidney trouble, Peruna should be taken.
This remedy strikes at once the very root
of the disease. It at once relieves the
catarrhal kidneys of the stagnant blood,
preventing the escape of serum from the
blood. Peruna stimulates the kidneys to
excrete from the blood the accumulating
poison, and thus prevents the convulsions
which are
sure to follow
if the poisons
are allowed
to remain. It
gives great
vigor to the
heart's action
and digestive
system, both
of which are
apt to fail
rapidly in
this disease.
reruna cures catarrh of the kidneys simply
because it cures catarrh wherever located.
If you do not derive prompt and satis
factory results from the use of Peruna,
write at once to Pr. Hartman, giving a
full statement of your case and he w ill lie
pleased to give you his valuable advice
gratis.

: WHY HE WAS SORRY J
* _ _ t
Mr. Swiggard was deeply penitent. I
“You know, doctor.” he said to his
friend and pastor, Rev. Dr. Snow, “1
swore off from drinking anything in
toxicating last January?”
"Yes."
“Well. I liavo kept my vow faith
fully all this time—until last night.”
“And then you fell?
“I am sorry to say I did.”
“I am as sorry as you are. Tell me
all about it.”
“in a moment of weakness I found
myself in front of a saloon. One of
my friends happened along. ‘Come in
and have a drink, old man,’ he said.
'No,' I said. ‘1 ve sworn off.’ 'That's
all right,' he said, grabbing me by the
arm. One drink won't hurt you. Come
in and get ono drink, and Ihen you
can renew your swearing off.* I pro
tested. but the next moment I totind
myself inside, and the old thrist tame
back. I took one drink, and then an
other and another, and Ihen my
freind proposed that we go out and
paint the town,”
“But you didn't do that?” inter
posed the doctor.
“I am sorry to say I did. We vis
ited every saloon In that part of
town, getting drunker and drunker and'
having an uproarious time. But we
weren't ratified with that. We went
to a swell establishment that seemed
to be a saloon and restaurant com
bined, and ordered a champagne sup
per. The waiter brought it on, and
we were about to begin on it, when
something happened."
“What was it?”
“1 woke up."
“Then it was all a dream?”
“It was.”
“And you hadn't broken your vow?"
“I hadn’t been near a saloon. Hadn't
touched a drop.”
“Ah, well, thz~\ you !• av< '. t any

Swiggard, wiping the perspiration

i BLUEBEARD WOULD NOT CHANGE
* .
♦ ♦♦ ♦ « ♦♦♦♦♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ • • • • • •
Once upon a time, not very long
after the now famous Bluebeard bad
embarked on his interesting matri
monial career, a country lawyer call
ed upon him and requested an inter
view.
“What is your business?” inquired
Bluebeard, gruffly.
“Alas! I must confers thnt I
haven’t any business. I am looking
for some. Let me explain. Your pen
chant for alternating as a widower
and a bridegroom has excited consid
erable comment in this neighborhood,
not altogether of a complimentary
character; I may say that dark sus
picions are abroad. Some people go
so far as to say that something ought
to be done.
“Now, I have a little scheme to
put an end to all this. Why not es
tablish a divorce court? Divorces to
be granted on application by cither
party—I fancy that any lady who
wishes to get in her application ahead
of yours will have to start early in
tlie honeymoon. Cause, iucompati
Dlllty. Nothing causes incompatibil
ity like feminine inqusitlveness. What
a happy masculine world we should
have without it! Divorces granted
with or without publicity or sent by
mail on receipt of return postage. I,
as the originator of the scheme to be
retained as permanent counsel for the
husband in the numerous cases of
Bluebeard vs. Bluebeard, which we
may reasonably expect to arise. Ali
mony and counsel fees to he paid by
the wife—I understand that you have
a chronic affinity for heiresses.
“I am sure this plan would suit the
ladies better than the methods at
present in vogue, and it might even
have some advantages as far as you
are concerned. It might relieve your
conscience—if you have any—’’
“Well. I'll think it over," daid Blue
beard, “but I can't give you much en
couragement. I have my own ways
cf doing things and they suit me.”
And the lawyer called many times
after that, but Bluebeard always said
there was nothing doing.—William E.

| METROPOLIS A DIG CITY j
» - « « « ...
To realize how great New York
city is one should compare ft with the
great cities of antiquity. Those great
centos of civilization which have
claimed the wonder of the ages or
their size and splendor, were really
small cities compared with Greater
New York.
Babylon, whose name has come to
be synonymous with dense popula
tion, never had over 1,200.000 inhabi
tants in itE palmiest days.
Route, the mistress of the world,
the great city to which all roads lad,
•‘Rome the Eternal.’1 did not exceed
2.000,000 in population. Gibbon, in
deed, believes that it bad only 1.200,
000, and in this estimate he and Mil
man agree,
Constantinople, at the time of its
greatest splendor as capital of the
eastern empire, had a population of
about 1,500,000. Many of the other
celebrated cities of antiquity were
mere villages compared to New York,'
not containing within the whole cir
cuit of their walls as many people R3
live in one ward of Manhattan.
Athens, when she led the Greek states
in repelling ihe invasion of Xerxes,
had only 30,000 inhabitants, hut Hero
dotus speaks of this number as if it
was something to boast of. Jerusa
lem in the days of Solomon probably
did not contain 20,000 people, and
Thebes and Memphis would have
been only populous suburbs of New
York.
New York city now contains more
people than there were in the Ameri
can colonies when they achieved their
independence. It has 1,000,000 more
inhabitants than the kingdom of
Greece, over 1,000,000 more than the
kli gdom of Servia, Is nearly equal in
population to the kingdom of Portu
gal, and also lacks not much of equal
ing the kingdom of Holland. It lias a
larger population than any one of
the Central American republics, and
more than any South American na
tion, Brazil and the'"Argentine repub
lic excepted. It has about twice tho
population of Denmark and more than
twice that of Norway.

The really unhappy man, whose un
happiness is his own fault, is the cno
who is forever carrying "a chip upon
ills shoulder." Perhaps hi3 happi
ness Is his unhappiness, for when lie
is not engaged In a personal alterca
tion he is brooding over some fancied
slight and awaiting a favorable oppor
tunity to give vent to hi3 wrath.
The man with the chip on Ills shoul
der Is easily recognized, and his so
ciety by wise people Is carefully avoid
ed. He can go nowhere without trou
ble following in his wake. If he at
tends a theater he is either annoyed
by the usher or someone in the audi
ence, or at the man in the box office
for not having sold him a seat bougnt
long before he appeared at the win
dow. He is the bane of the car con
ductor, and on the railroad train ho

row with the bralteman, conductor,

Each flying cinder from the locomo

There are somo women similarly
constituted, who manage to he in trou

in the morning till iney close them
in sleep. Those people are Indeed to
l)e pitied, if indeed they are not cor
dially hated. This quarrelsome habit
of mind ran bo so festered that tho
petulancy grows to Te a malignant
disease and leads sometimes to the
insane asylum. Parents who notice
in their children this fretful, quarrel
ing disposition can cosily find a rem
edy. They may not ag.-ec to the meas
ure—simply, a good, sound thrashing.
Everyone has heard of the story of
the child who was ecntinually whim
poring and quarreling. In despair the
mother cried: “Are you sick? What
do you want?” Gravely the child an
swered: “I think, Minima, I want a
whipping.” She received the whip

Sacrifice to Science.
A well known surgeon was, recently
called upon to perform an operation
on the person of a small son of a
prominent merchant of Philadelphia.
Prior to the operation, his mother
proposed that he should say his pray

which tlie nurFc began to remove his
clothing, while the mother stood by
weeping.
Suddenly he asked: “Mamma,
mayn't I say another prayer?"
“Certaluly, dear; pray all you
wish."
The little fellow at once got down
, on hia knees, lifted his face upward
and. amid the alienee, solemnly said:
"Oh, God, please don’t kill me; kii)

college for their sons during the coming
year would do well to correspond with the
President, who will send them a catalogue
free of charge, as well as all particulars
regarding terms, courses of studies, etc.
Private rooms are given free to students
of the Sophomore, Junior or Senior years
of any of the Collegiate t bourses.
There is a thorough preparatory school
in connection with t lie University, in which
students of all grades will have every op
port unit v of preparing themselves for
higher studies. The Commercial Course
intended for young men preparing for
business, may be finished in one or two
years according to the ability of t lie student.
St. Edward’s Hall, for boys under thirteen,
is a unique department of the institution.
The.higher courses are thorough in every
respect., and students will find every op
portunity of perfect ing themselves in any
line of work they may choose to select.
Thoroughness in class-work, exactness in
the care of students, and devotion to the

Is the Calkewr.lk French?
The French have found a reason for
the popularity of the cakewalk in
Paris. The thing is French! One of
the negroes at the Nouveau Cirque, in
terviewed by a Paris paper, says that
tlie origin of the dance was French.
According to this latest account, sofhe
of the French refugees from the court
of Marie Antoinette introduced the
minuft into New Orleans about the
time of the Revolution, and it was the
native imitation of the most faslil<»i
able dance in Europe that was after
ward developed into the cakewalk.
Wealth of the Pope.
Leo's fortune is immense. It is one
of the great fortune’s of the world.
In the grand schism of the West, popes
were frequently supported on alms.
Voltaire points out that the popes did
not become rich till after the period
when they dared not to exhibit them
selves at Rome. According to Villani,
Bertrand do Got. or Both, Clement V.
of Bordeaux, who passed his life In
France and was governed by King
Philip, sold benefices publicly and died
worth 25,000,000 gold florins, about
$37,600,000. “It appears,” says Vol
taire, "that the popes have been often
treated liko the gods of the Japanese,
who are sometimes presented with
offerings of gold, nnd sometimes
thrown into the river.”
Storekt’U’ers report that the extra
quantity, together with the superior
quality of Defiance Starch makes It
next to impossible to sell any other
brand.
