CATARRH
MADE LIFE
A BURDEN TO ME.
MISS ANNIE CATRON, 927 Main
St., Cincinuati. Ohio, writes:
"As I have found Peruna a blessing
for a severe case of catarrh of the head
and throat which I suffered from for a
number of years, I ara only too pleased
to give it my personal endorsement.
"Catarrh, such as I suffered from,
made life a burden to me, my breath
warn offensive, stomach bad, and my
head stopped up bo that I was usually
troubled with a headache, and although
I tried many so-called remedies, noth
ing gave me permanent relief. I was
rather discouraged with all medicines
when Peruna was suggested to me.
"However, I did buy a bottle, and be
fore that was finished there was a
marked change in my condition. Much
encouraged 1 kept on until I was com
pletely cured in a month's time, and I
find that my general health is also ex
cellent." People who prefer solid medicines
should try Peruna tablets. Each tablet
represents one average dose of Peruna.

upon a magnetic- needle is noticeable
at half k Jozen yards, and as one gets
nearer the plant this Influence in

MORE DESIRABLE THAN BEAUTY.
Writer Makes Good Argument in Fa
vor of Neatness.
We all long for' beauty, but there
Ib within the grasp of all women
something even more desirable than
beauty namely, exquisite neatness.
The writer has descanted on the de
sirability of neatness more than once,
but it is something that will bear to
be talked about more than once, or
twice, or even a dozen times. "Faith,"
says Pat, when reproved for lying,
Oi have such a respect for Truth, Oi
wud not be dhragging her out on every
occashun." The writer differs in this
respect from Pat. She, has such a re
spect for neatness that she would be
dragging her out on every occasion.
A man who had traveled much and
seen many women In many countries,
said the other day, "I prefer neatness
to beauty. Beauty does not last, while
the woman of 80 can still be charm
ingly neat." By neatness he meant
more than simple tidiness. It Includ
ed stj'le and care and taste and the
indefinable art of putting on one's
clothes properly. It is a faculty, alas,
that Canadian women do not possess
to any extent, says a writer in the
Montreal Herald. They doubtless in
herit the lack of it from their English
ancestors, who are noticeably untidy.
The mass of Englishwomen do not
seem to know the meaning of the
word. Their skirts and belts always
separate at the back. Their hair is
never beautifully colffed like the
Frenchwoman s, their whole aspect is
, frowsy to an extreme. Of course, this
does not apply to all Englishwomen.
There are exceptions to every rule.
On the other hand, the Americans are
neat, and hence smart, for it is im
possible to be smart without perfect
neatness. They have a trim, trig way
of wearing their clothes that gives a
style to the cheapest ready-made. If
you cannot be beautiful you can at
least be charmingly neat. And neat
ness has an attractiveness that mere
beauty lacks.
Diabolo in the Past.
More diabolo discoveries. In the
National library at Paris are two
prints, one entitled "The Game of Dia
bolo at the Beginning of the Last Cen
tury;" the other entitled "The Devil
for Four (the old diabolo)." Two
couples are playing diabolo excitedly
in a room; the furniture is upset and
the mirrors broken. Another design is
entitled: "The Good Devil, How He
Goes!" A young woman throws a big,
simple fellow in the air, and from his
pocket fall pieces of gold. In the same
picture is another woman, with her
.diabolo cord round the neck of a man,
with the inscription below: "See how
we lead them!" Dia'iolo raised a
;furor in France in 1812. It was then,
according to the Figaro correspondent,
imported from England, and an Eng
lish caricature of a later date repre
sents a great Wellington sending to
.St. Helena's a very little Napoleon rid
ing on a diabolo. Long before the
revolution of 1789 some missionaries
in Peking sent an exact reproduction
of diabolo to a French minister of
state who collected Chinese curiosi-
.ties. The Chinese are always found to
have- forgotten everything we are be
ginning to learn! Dundoo Advertiser;
A Sailor and a Chow Dog.
At the hour when women were mak
ing afternoon calls one day last week
a man attired in the uniform of a
sailor in ' the navy attracted a good
.deal of attention in West Fifty-fourth
street. New York, by something he
carried under his right arm, a some
'thing that looked at first like a white
.'bundle, but which, on closer inspec
tion, proved to be a Chinese chow dog
(that the sailor was trying to sell. The
'little animal was unusual enough in
'itself to catch the eyes of the women
who stopped to speak to the sailor
'about it. But more unusual than that
!was the way in which the tiny pet was
clothed as protection against the cold.
fHe not only wore a coat with "sleeves"
(Tor his front and hind legs, but he also
had his furry head covered with a
(veritable baby's hood, with a ruffle
around the front of it, the cap being
tied under his neck with red ribbons.
The "costume" attracted quite as
much notice as the chow dog did so
long as its owner remained in sight
on the block.
Future Hardwood Supply.
America's future hardwood supply
jnust come mainly from the- Appa
lachian mountains, according to the
torest service. The other chief cen
ters of production are now in the lake
states and lower Mississippi valley,
but in the former the presence of hard
woods is an almost certain indication
of rich soil, and the tracts once cleared
are turned to agricultural uses. In
Arkansas, Louisiana and Mississippi
the production of hard woods has
reached its height, and in Missouri
and Texas it has begun to decline.
The Appalachians contain the largest
body of this timber remaining in the
TJnlted States, and have the greatest
variety of species. Rightly managed,
their forests would produce 20,000,000.
.000 feet per year, since their. soil and
climate combine to make heavy stands
and cause rapid growth. Much of thi(
area,- however, has been so damaged
by fire and cutting that it will be
years before its 75,000,000 acres are
fully productive. Leslie's Weekly.

VIRGINIA MERCHANT RID OF A
VERY BIG GRAVEL STONE.
Another Remarkable Cure of Serious
Kidney Trouble.
C. lu Wood, a prominent merchant
of Fentress, Norfolk Co., Va., was suf
fering some months
ago with frequent at
tacks of hard pain in
the hack, kidneys
and bladder and the
kidney secretions
were irregularly
scanty or profuse.
Medical treatment
failed to cure him.
"At last," says Mr. Wood, "I began
using Doan's Kidney Pills, and before
one box was gone, I went through four
days of intense pain, finally passing a
stone, one-half by five-sixteenths of an
inch in diameter. I haven't had a sign
of kidney trouble since."

DOCTOR SAID "USE CUTICURA"
In Bad Case of Eczema on Child
Disease Had Reached a Fearful
State His Order Resulted
in Complete Cure.
"When I was small I was troubled
with eczema for about three months.
It was all over my face and covered
nearly all of my head. It reached
such a state that it was just a large
scab all over, and the pain and itching
were terrible. I doctored with an able
physician for some time and was then
advised by him to use the Cuticnra
Remedies which I did and I was en
tirely cured. I have not been bothered
with it since. I used Cuticura Soap
and Cuticura : Ointment but do not
know exactly how much was used to
complete the cure. I can safely say
that Cuticura did a lot for me. Miss

experiments made to save life or re
lieve suffering while he was practic
ing his profession.
