W. L. Douglas is going to increas
the capacity of his factory to 6OC
pairs of shoes per day. The additio
will add 16,000 square feet of space fc
manufacturing purposes. At the sam

quate power for the present and ai
"other addition to the factory , whic
will no doubt be necessary later 01
When the factory starts up the fin
of July it will be on an output of 5C
dozen or 6,000 pairs of shoes per da ;
and the weekly pay roll , exclusive e
office help , superintendent , foremei
etc. , will be § 22,000 per week. Th
Douglas salesmen on the road are sel
ing 25 per cent more goods than las
season. The increased sales is the d :
rect result of good shoemaking and < s
tensive advertising. The advertisin
expenditure of Mr. Douglas is no1
larger than at any period of his bus
ness , and this Is to be still further ir
creased. Beginning this week hall

For Health nnd Decency. _
Disregard for the law against ex
pectorating in public conveyances has
at last moved the New York health
department to action. Tuesday morn-
nig seventy officers of the department
in citizen's attire were detailed tc
travel all day in the ears of the various
companies throughout the city and on
all the ferry boats. They had orders
to arrest any person found violating
the ordinace. Before noon several men
the officers
were compelled to accompany
cers to a magistrate's court , where
they were fined and warned against a
repetition of the offense.
Guns. Heard Eighty-Four Miles.
An interesting matter , from a scien
tific point of view , in connection witti
the death of the queen is the distance
at which the sound of firing was heard
when the fleet saluted as the body was
conveyed from Cowes to Portsmouth.
Letters in the English journals oi
science show that the sounds of the
guns were heard in several places at
a distance of sixty miles , and that ai
a distance of sixty miles the concus
sions were sufficiently intense to shake
windows.

A novel method of boring holes ir

on a flat ship where a breakdown oc

Hon. B. B. Doviner , Congressman
from West Virginia , in a letter from
Washington , D. C. , to The Peruna Med
icine Co. , says the following of theic
catarrh remedy , Peruna :
"I Join with my colleagues in the
House of Representatives In recom
mending your excellent remedy , Pe
runa , as a good tonic and also an ef
fective cure for catarrh. "
Mrs. Mary C. entress writes from :
Paradise , Tex. , the following : "I
think I can say that your good advlco
and medicine has cured me of chronic
catarrh. I have had no pains in my
head since I have taken Peruna , I
have been in bad health ever since
' 59 , and have taken a good many med
icines which were only of temporary
relief. Peruna is the catarrh cure. The
Peruna stopped my catarrh of the head
so that it did not become chronic , and
I am very thankful for Dr. Hartman's
advlco and medicine. "
Peruna is a specific for all catarrhal
diseases. It acts quickly and bene
ficially upon the inflamed mucous
membrane , thus removing the cause of.
catarrh.
Catarrh is catarrh -wherever located.
Catarrh is essentially the same every
where. The remedy that will euro ca
tarrh in one situation will euro it in
all situations.
