/ Gentlemen : "I suffered with pain In my right side for over eight years.
Doctors said my liver was affected. My complexion was dark and yellow , I
tad * bad taste In my mouth , and was tired all the time. I took a great deal
of medicine , but nothing seemed to do me any good. I read In the paper ol
Peruna , and decided to give It a Mai. I felt better before the first kottle was
gone , and after taking three bottles / was cured , and I have enjoyed perfect
since. " LEIU HILTON.

never failing remedy. It cleanses the

"fever , " as it is sometimes called , which
iproduces a tired out , sleepy feeling , and
inability to do much mental or physica1
work , is the result of a sluggish

' The great popularity that Peruna
Is due to the fact that in all such cases

DIVERTING A RIVER COURSE.
Job of Kncrinccrinsr Undertaken
by Uncle bain in Colorado.
In accordance' itli the pol T ' o nm-
meuded by President Uooseveu m aia
message to Congress , rl e UnL.C 1trt * 3
government Is taking its n'-t x''P to
ward reclaiming the aric ' "is of tue
West
One of the greatest engineering feats
of modern times is already under way.
The Gunnison river in Colorado Is to
be diverted from its course through a
six-mile tunnel so that the stream shall
Irrigate the Uncompahgre valley. 11
will cost $1,000,000.
The result will be that a whole farm-
Ing community will be reclaimed and
a fertile district , now parched and dry
for lack of water , will once more blos
som as the rose ,
When the Uncompabgre valley was
settled a few years ago , abundant Irri
gation was supplied by the Uncom
pahgre river , but the cutting of the
timber since then has caused the
stream to shrink to a tiny creek. As a
consequence the farms were deserted
and the value of the land sank to al
most nothing. Now , with the promise
of a new water supply , the land has
fairly leaped in price , and some of it
Is now held as high as $300 an acre.
The work preliminary to starting the
big tunnel has Just been completed by
the United States Geographical sur
vey.
It involved a trip across the Black
canyon of the Gunnison , a district
never before explored in its entirety by
white men. A few years ago a party
of explorers made the attempt , but they
had gone only a short distance , when
they lost all their boats and supplies
and barely escaped with their lives.
Before sotting out the government
employes planned to have provisions
lowered to them by ropes from above.
. ) they started with as light an equip
ment as possible , onljr their surveyors'
Instruments , a camera , and a few nec
essary articles. It took them ten days
to traverse the ten miles of their jour
ney. '
The poisonous properties of the toad
have long been Regarded as fabulous ;
but recent investigation has proved
that the skin of a species of toad se
cretes a poison similar In action to digi
talis. The venom of the toad has had
the reputation of possessing poisonous
properties from a very early period and
was probably one of the earliest forms
of animal poison known. The old tra
dition that King John was poisoned by
a friar who dropped a toad into his
wine was regarded as a ridiculous fa
ble until some years ago , when it was
discovered that the skin of the toad
secretes a body the active principle of
which "phrynin , " is a poison of consid
erable power.
Nature Notes mentions a curious inci
dent which was witnesed at Belper , a
small town not far from Derby , Eng
land. Late one afternoon three rats
were seen crossing a yard from the dl-
recrion of the fowlhouse. One rat had
a lu'ii'o egg between its fore legs and
its mouth and was being carried by the
other two , one at each end ; that is , they
were carrying in their mouths the other
rat with its back downward. A day or
two afterward the correspondent heard
a squealing noise in the fowlhouse ,
more nk that of a child than that of
a rat , so he opened the door and there
was a rat on his back , with the egg as
before 3teniloned , and two others en
deavoring to raise him and take him
away.
A member of the medical faculty of
the University of Michigan has discov
ered that a galvanic current promotes
the growth of tissue. Two cages of
guinea pigs , six to the cage , were ex
perimented with. The guinea pigs were
ail exactly the same age. Through one
of the'cages an electric current was
passed day and night. The other cage
was in no way electrlctified. For a
stated period the animals in both cages
were fed with precisely equal quanti
ties of food of the same quality. The
experiment proved that guinea pigs
who lived in the electrified cage gained
in weight during a measured time 10
per cent more than those In the non
electric cage. If , as a result of these
experiments , electricity be applied on a
large scale to the fattening of animals
used as food possibly "electric bacon"
or "electric beef" will command a spe
cial price.

Inflammation of theOvaries by Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
" DEAR MRS. PINKHAM : Eighteen months ago I was a pretty
sick woman. I had felt for some months that I gradually grew
weaker , but finally I had such severe pains I could hardly stand it.
I had taken cold during menstruation and this developed into conges
tion of the ovaries and inflammation , and I could not bear to walk or
stand on my feet. The doctor recommended an operation which I
would not hear of. One of my friends advised me to try Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound , so I gave it a trial. Can
you imagine my feeling when within two months I felt considerably
better , my general health was improved , and my pains had entirely
disappeared. I kept taking it six weeks more and am now enjoying
the best of health , thanks to you. Yours truly , MRS. SOPHIE BINNS. "

A nasty practice is what the Chicago
Inter Ocenn calls the pasting of re
peated layers of wall paper , one upon
another , thus covering up the filth and
germs of disease that may be propa
gated In the very absorbent and de
caying mass of flour paste , paper ,
animal glue , colors , etc.
They eive opinions of eminent
health officers and sanitarians , urging
that such practice should be stopped
by legal enactment , and also take oc
casion to say that these sanitarians
recommend Alabaitine as a durable ,
pure and sanitary coating for walls.
The Inter Ocean says : "This is a
Tery important question , and , as it
costs nothing to avoid this danger ,
why take any chances ? " I
