rMr. William F. Valilberg, Oklahoma
3ty, Okla., writes:
"One bottle of Peruna which I have
taken did more toward relieving me of
an aggravated case of catarrh ot the
atomach, than yours of treatment with
the best physicians.
VI had given up hope of relief, and
only tried Peruna as a last resort.
"I shall continue using- it, as I feel
satisfied it will effect an entire mad
permanent cure.
- "I most cheerfully recommend Peruna
to all who may read this."
' Peruna is usually taken as a last re-
aort. Doctors have been tried and
failed. Other remedies have been nsed.
Sanitariums have been visited. Travel
baa been resorted to.
At last Peruna is tried. Belief is
found.
This history is repeated over and
over again, every day in the year. It is
aacu results ns this that gives Peruna
its unassailable hold upon the people.
We could say nothing: that would add
Torce to such testimonials as the above.
That people who have had catarrh and
have tried every other remedy avail
able, find relief in Peruna, constitutes
the beat argument that could be made.

Uttle Henry had been very naughty
and was shut up In a closet until he
should express proper penitence for
his misdeeds. Near by sat his moth
er, ready to extend pardon to the
mall offender at the first sign of
sorrow. At last a faint sigh caught
her ear. Creeping silently to the
door, she discovered the child seated
on the floor in a disconsolate attitude.
"Poor me!" he muttered, with an
other sigh. "Why can't I get out?
I'M done Bonied all I can sorry!"

BLOODY SCENES THERE IN 1793
VIVIDLY DESCRIBED BY HUGO.
Place In Brittany Whose History Dates
from Days' of Druids Discovery
of a Taurobolic Temple
Traces Left by St. Michael.
London. Dol is one of the oldest
towns in Brittany, and is certainly one
of the most Interesting in the depart
ment of Ille et Vilaine. It Is quaint
and small like its name and we can
hardly realize that it was once an
achlepiscopal see and the mise en
scene of all sorts of historic happen
ings. The cathedral is the chief sight
of the place, and though we may not
agree with the local guide book that
the building is a perfect marvel, we
must admit that it is really fine, while
the picturesque houses of the Grande'
Rue, the ancient fountain, the boule
vards that surround the town just as
the moat surrounded it in the days of
long ago, the pretty, peaceful country
on every side, ail combine to make
Dol extremely attractive and put us in
the mood to enjoy its long and varied
story. Dol has survived experiences
both strange and tragic, and it is dim-
cult to realize that its quiet streets,
rarely disturbed by anything more
alarming than the escapades of un
ruly pigs and geese and calves on a
market day, and the shrill cries of ex
cited peasants, were the scene of a
frightful slaughter, when, in 1793, the
"Chouans" defeated the revolutionary
army commanded by Kleber, Marceau
and Westermann. The combat is viv
idly described in Victor Hugo's
"Quartre-Vingt-Treize" and a large
canvas depicting the . enrollment of
these redoubtable volunteers can be
seen in the Hotel de Ville.
Since the revolution, Dol may be
said to have given itself up to slum
brous reminiscence, for nothing ' hap
pens there now, but after all, a place
where things began to happen when
A Street in Dol.
the ancient Druids slaughtered bulls
on the top of Mount Dol and bathed
their prostrate worshipers in their
blood, can afford to rest on its historic
laurels.
Mount Dol is a curious eminence,
rising abruptly from the flat country
surrounding the "little town, and al
though tradition has long claimed that
the Druids used to offer sacrifices
thereon it was only a few years ago
that the veritable taurobllic temple
was discovered. There were two oth
er slabs, each of them containing 27
funnel holes arranged in three rows,
and beneath each altar was a small
chamber, in which the candidate for
baptism used to crouch, while the
blood of the slaughtered ox rained
down through the funnels upon him.
It was such a baptism that was suf
fered by Julian the Apostate, in his
desire to wash off his Christianity. As
time passed on this Druid temple was
used by the Romans for the worship
of Diana, and later still it became a
Christian church. Numberless prehis
toric implements have been found on
Mount Dol, and If you have the good
fortune to be accompanied on your
visit by a Breton you will be shown
in the rock a footprint of the Arch
angel Michel and a deep scratch pro
duced by the devil's claws.
The foundation of Dol was contem
porary with the beginning of a mon
astery built by St. Samson in 548. The
town became prosperous, and in the
ninth century was chosen for the coro
nation of Nominee, a king ot Brittany,
who did much to establish the Inde
pendence of his native land. He was
a great lover of freedom, and deter
mined that not only his country, but
his church, should be saved from
French domination. Accordingly he
summoned a council, at which he
charged the French bishops with
simony, forced them to admit their
guilt and lay down their croziers. He
then announced his decision to remain
no longer under the jurisdiction of
Tours, and he ended by creating seven
sees in Brltany, making Dol archiepls
copal, with control over the others.
Such unheard of behavior was strongly
.opposed by France and the popes, but
for 300 years little Dol remained a
metropolitan see.

said I could never

and freer from pain. I kept on using
them and in three months was able to
get out on crutches, and the kidneys

Doctor Said to Use Cuticura.
"Six months after birth my little girl
broke out with eczema and I bad two
doctors in attendance. There was not
a particle of skin left on her body, .the
blood oozed out just anywhere, and we
had to wrap her in silk and carry her
on a pillow for ten weeks. She was the
most terrible sight I ever saw, and for
six months I looked for her to die. I
used every known remedy to allevi
ate her suffering, for it was terrible
to witness. Dr. C gave her up. Dr,
B recommended the Cuticura
Remedies. She will soon be three

Blighted Faith.
Edith's small friends were helping
her celebrate her sixth birthday, and
one embryo Prince Charming had
been so devoted that seven-year-old
Gladys slyly whispered to Edith's
mamma that "Edith has got a beau.
Mamma, who wasn't so very aged her
self, felt that the role of chaperon was
being prematurely thrust upon her,
and explained to Gladys that small
girls had little boy friends, not beaus.
Gladys was not to be daunted, how
ever. "But I have a beau," she announced
"at least I had one, but he's mar
ried now. Just think, he promised
faithfully to wait for me, and then he
went off and married some one else.
And now,' with profound and tragic
conviction, "I'll never believe another
man as long as I live."

Mrs. Hadley on the shoulder, said, feel

DOWN MISSOURI WAY
CANADA'S RESPECT FOR LAW
AND ORDER THE SUBJECT
FOR FAVORABLE COMMENT.
Those who have visited Canada are
always impressed with the strict ob
servance that is given to the laws
of the country, and the order that is
preserved everywhere. The editor of
the Gazette, of Fulton, Nev., recently
paid a visit to Western Canada, He
was so impressed with the conditions
that he saw everywhere, that on his
return home he was inspired to write
as follows: "Reverence and respect
for law is a dominant characteristic
of the Canadian people. Wherever
one goes in Canada, whether east or
west, the law is supreme. The law is
obeyed because it is law, seemingly,
and not because violation carries a
penalty. Canada enforces the law and
makes every law effective. No coun
try is more free than Canada. In name
Canada is a dependency of the Brit
ish Crown. In fact, it is almost a
third republic. All its taxes are voted,
collected and expended by the Domin
ion and the provinces. The nominal
head of the Government is the .Gov
ernor General, appointed by the Eng
lish Crown. Practically his only au
thority is to veto the acts of parlia
ment, which he scarcely ever exer
cises. Canada gives nothing to, the
support of the English government or
the English king. She gives England
the advantage in trade regulations and
tariff laws, and in return receives the
protection of the British army and
navy. Canada enjoys the protection
without sharing in the expense.
"The sale of liquor is strictly regu
lated. None but hotel-keepers may
obtain license to vend the stuff, and
before a license can be secured an ap
plicant must prove good character and
provide twenty rooms in his tavern
for the accommodation of guests. Tne
bar-rooms close at 7 o'clock Saturday
evening and remain closed until Mon
day morning. The schools and churches
in Western Canada excite admiration.
Though new, Western Canada is not
godless. The finest buildings in every
town are the churches. Next come
the school houses."
Turning to the wheat fields of West
ern Canada, the editor of the Laurel
(Neb.) Advocate of Sept. 17th says:
1 have often thought that the
reason that the characters of Charles
Dickens are so impressed upon the
minds of his readers is because he
dwells upon them so long and de
scribes, them so minutely that by the
time one has waded through his long
drawn out stories they are so burned
Into his brain that he can never forget
them. It was this way with the Cana
dian wheat fields. Had we only seen
a few the memory of them might
have worn away in time, but a long
drawn out experience such as we had
Is sure to leave an uneffaceable im
pression. ' Never while we live shall
we forget the Canadian wheat fields.
They call it the granary of the Brit
ish Empire, and we don't blame 'em.
Nobody who has seen these wheat
fields can wonder at their enthusiasm.'
It is worth while to record that these
fields have now been harvested, and
In many cases yields as high as forty
and fifty bushels per acre have been
marketed, while the general average
has been away above 20 bushels per
acre. Oats and barley have also
done well, and the profits, the prices
of grains being high, have paid the
entire cost of the farms of many a
farmer. There is now 160 acres of
land given away, in addition to the
160 acres that the homesteader may
purchase at $3.00 an acre. Particu
lars of this as well as the lowest rail
way rates will he given by the Cana
dian Government Agent.
8poits for Fashion's Followers.
At auctions in London during the
last half of 1907 there were catalogued
for sale 19,742 skins of birds of para

plumes and a vast number of the
skins and plumes of many other birds
of beautiful plumage, including alba
tross quills and the tails of the lyre
