Chicago , SepL The Peruna Drug
Manufacturing Company , manufac
turers of a widely known proprietary
medicine , has brought suit in tiie Su
perior Court of the city of Chicago
against the Curtis Publishing Com
pany of Philadelphia , alleging that it
has been damaged to the extent of
250,000 by a recent article in the
Ladles' Home Journal.
The suit Is based on a statement re
cently made in that journal that a tes
timonial as to the merit of tho remedy
manufactured by the plaintiff , alleged
to have been given by Congressman
George II. White of South Carolina
? was fraudulent , denial from Mr. White
I that he ever gave such a testimonial
\ also being printed.
' ' * The Peruna Company declares that
> Congressman White did give the tes
timonial in good faith , that it has two
original letters from Mr. White. It
declares that Mr. White was led to
repudiate the testimonial through a
misunderstanding.
This Is the second large damage suit
that bus been filed against the Curtis
Publishing Company since it inaugu
rated its attacks on "patent medi
cines. "

An Old , Cd ! Story.
HANDSOME Denver woman left a good
husband because she was "tired of him" and
married a man who was a rake. The expected
happened. It was the man who got tired this
time. Ho did not lake the woman away from
the other man because lie loved her. He mere-
wanted to show what he could do. One day
this second husband intimated that he was through with
her. Made desperate , the woman shot the brute and hilled
him.
him.The whole thing , tragc.iy and all , was logical. The
woman invited , retributive justice. And so did the man.
When the woman loft her faithful husband , lured by the
tempter , she cut herself from happiness. She was too
proud to crawl back and 1-cg the forgiveness of the man
she had deserted for a whim. And she lived every day
of her life in the scorn of tho man who had done with
her what he would. What wonder she was desperate to
madness ? And as for him ' .20 got what lie wanted when
he took the woman from theside of her husband. It was
small satisfaction. It was vx > easy. And when tho de
ceived , silly creature realized her status the man got what
he deserved. A real man would have staid by the woman
to the bitter end. iUt real nu > : i avc not in the business

Why the Postcfiice Doesn't Pay.
HE managers of the post office announce tear
fully that tho rural free delivery system will
cause a deficit. Rural free delivery enables
farmers to got mail regularly. It enables a
good many people to make a respectable liv
ing and , above all , it keeps the inhabitants
of the nation in touch will ) each other and
with civilization. Whore the rural free delivery goes
there is no more of that dreadful unbroken monotony which
fills Western insane asylums with fanners' wives.
Postofflce officials and others , more or less interested ,
attribute to the rural free delivery system the national
postofflce deficit and attack rural free delivery by impli
cation. They are wrong. In the first place , the rural
free delivery system should be constantly extended even
if it does cause a deficit. In the second place , it Is not
rural free delivery which is at fault , but tho national sys
tem of allowing the railroads to swindle the government
through the postoiRco. The fifteen millions deficit is a
very small flea-bite compared to tho enormous sum that the
railroads steal every year from the government.
The government hires its mail cars from the railroads
and pays for a year's rent as much ns tho car costs to
build. And those car ? , outrageously overpaid for by the
government , are such flimsy deathtraps that no company
will Insure the lives of the po.stal clerks that work in
them. For hauling these mail cars on the same train that
hauls private express cars the railroads charge the gov
ernment anywhere from one thousand per cent up in ex
cess of the rate that they charge the express companies.
Summer Drownings.
N nine out of every ten of the numerous cases
of drowning which sadden the summer season
the fatal accident may be traced back either to
gnorance of a few simple rules that should be
known and observed by bathers , or else to a
rash and reckless disregard of them when
known. In the cases of the drowning of good
gwimmers , the fatal cramp Is generally due to their having
gone into the water too soon after eating or when over
heated , and therefore with their strength , unconsciously to
themselves , below its par value.
Here are the cardinal rules for swimmers : Never go
Into the water when overheated , 'or soon after eating. The
careful physician would probably insist upon an interval of
at least two hours between meal and bath ; one hour is a
fair compromise betwe'en zeal and prudence , and a half
hour tho absolute minimum for safety. Finally , don't enter
the water timidly and by degrees , but boldly and with a
plunge , wotting the whole body at once. If one is not able
to dive in , he should wade in to knee depth , then wet his
head thoroughly and plunge in bodily. These rules have
been repeated oflon enough to bo familiar to everybody ,
but they are continually disregarded.
When in distress in the water , cool presence of mind
and calm self-control are the essential means of salvation.
It is a panic of fear that carries the struggling victim to
death before rescuers can reach him. Anyone who has con
fidence can float , especially in salt water , .almost indefinite
ly , and with practically no muscular exertion. New Yorlr

T Spring into existence a new State , it attracts the
W f attention of the worldNot loss worth noting
the great economic movements which are
] v changing the pages of our geogra-
it is not many years since there was little
to say about Western Canada , except that great stretches
of unoccupied pnude extended north and wc r , from Win
nipeg to the foot of the Rocky Mountains. Out of this
territory west of Manitoba two now provinces Saskatche
wan and Alberta will , on Sept. 1 , come into existence as
full-fledged members of the Canadian confederation.
In this great Western Canadian area , including Mani
toba , there wore , by the census of 1001 , only about as
many people as in the single city of Cincinnati. Yet its
agricultural resources will support twenty millions , nearly
one-half tho population of the British Isles. The room
for development is thus ample , and that is the first essen
tial in the building of a great commonwealth.
The new provinces will be largely devoted , as Is Mani
toba , to wheat , with some cattle-grazing. They have not
been fully occupied heretofore , because the world has been
able to get along without their products. 1'ut tfio United
States must , before many decades , cease to export wheat ,
so large will be the demands of its own inhabitants. The
densely populated countries of the world arc ever seeking
their food supplies from its newer areas.
This great region of Canada has boon called "the last
west. " It might also be called the "first north" of the
American continent , since the successful cultivation of the
soil , through improvements in agriculture , is steadily mov
ing northward , and it is possible that another generation
will see tho tide of humanity rushing into areas not now
deemed suitable for Tanning. The length of the summer's
day , toward the arctic circle , offsets to some extent the
shortness of the season. More important still , areas gov
erned by Pacific temperatures are everywhere warmer thar
in the older half of the continent. Youth's Companion.
A Dwarfish Murderer.
E have before had occasion to note the grow
ing public indifference to the brutal murder of
innocent men coincident with a sentimental
repulsion at the thought of the legal execution
of the brutal murderer. A case in point : Tha
Chicago papers tell us that a fellow of tho
street. 17 years old , with a shocking record of
fiendish crimes , concluding with a particularly atrocious
murder , was lot off because lie is dwarfish in stature. It
appears that this youth , with others , broke into a butcher
shop , but found no money , which angered him. lie selected
the biggest knife in the shop , and as the gang loft , said :
"Watch me ; I'm gohf to get even wit' some guy for dis.
De foist guy we moots gets dis sticker in his gizzard. " A
young follow came swinging along , unconscious of danger ,
and the dwarf stabbed him to death with the butcher
knife. The judge refused to sentence the murderer to be
hanged because he was "too small. " Mistaken sentiment.
If he is big enough to murder he is big enough to hang.

JUST GETTING A NEW SUIT.
When Q Bird ? .Ioilts It Is in the Hands
of Its Tailor.
We got n new suit some of us be
cause our old ono wears out. That is
the most apparent cause for the new
annual suit of the birds. Yet with
them , as with some of the favored of
us humans , the feathers go out of fash
ion. But the annual moult is , first of
nil , nature's wise provision for the
safety and life of the bird. Feathers
are not only covering but also means
of locomotion , and hence the bird's
only means of life. A year of use
leaves many of them worn and bro
ken , some of them , through accident ,
entirely lost. Here in my woods is a
crow with three of the large quills In
his right wing go no. I can see the gap
as he flies over. He has been shot at ,
nnd nature must replace those feathers
If that crow is to survive , even though
he conies justly ( human standards ! ) by
his loss from stealing corn. The feath
ers of this crow and of all birds might
last for two years or longer , but to
keep the race at Its best , nature has
found it necessary to provide a new
plumage at least once a year.
But there are other reasons , at least
there are advantages taken of the
moult for other ends ; such as the tem
perature of the seasons heavier in
winter and lighter in summer , also the
adaptation of the color of the plumage
to the changing colors of tue environ
ment as the change from the dark
summer color of the ptarmigan to its
snow-white winter plumage to match
the snows of Its far northern homo ;
then , and perhaps most interesting of
all , Is the advantage taken of tho
moult , for the adorning of the bird for
the mating season. Indeed , nature goes
so far , In some cases , as to cause a
special moult to meet the exigencies
of the wedding as if fine feathers do
make a fine bird. All this to meet the
fancy of the bride ! So at least the
scientists tell us. Country Calendar.
Smike as a Hypnotist.
Hypnotism has been advanced as an
explanation of the peculiar fascination
exercised by serpents over weak ani
mals , which become so influence : ! by
the eyes and body movements of their
charmer that they are easily captured.
Birds , squirrels and mice arc the readi
est victims.
According to the Instances observed ,
the doomed animals sr-cni to realize
their danger , but are powerless to re
sist the influence. Sometimes a di
version , such as n sudden noise , will
break the spell. It may have been , in
the instances observed , that the victim
was a parent trying to distract the
snake's attention from its young and
approaching incautiously too near its
enemy. Or there may have been an at
traction by curiosity or antipathy , the
victim becoming careless of itdanger
through anger or weak through terror.
The explanation that a state of hyp
nosis is induced Is reasonable.
The common hen may be readily
hypnotized , ami music renders some
mammals incapable of movement. The
first move of the snake's victim may
bo one of curiosity. Then tho snake
may. even without being uvraro of It ,
exert Us hypnotic influence , anil , seeing !
Its proy within rojfch. naturally avail !

j M'CALL MAKES . ADMISSION.
Says Store than Half Million Was
Used in I.ctrJH'atircs.
John A. McCall , president of the New
York Life Insurance Company , was on
the witness stand the greater part of
Wednesday before
tho Armstrong in
vestigating commit-
tee iu NevvYork ,
and in sharp con
trast with his first
appearance two
weeks ago he made
no secret of the im
mense payments by
his company to
' Judge" Andrew
Hamilton to influ
ence insurance Icg-
A. M'CALL. islntion in various
States of the Union. Much of the pro
posed insurance legislation in various
States ho characterized as blackmailing
attempts. It was brought out :
1. That since 1000 tho New York Life
" " Hamilton $470-
has paid to "Judge" ,
027.02 for legislative purposes , and has
filso paid to others large sums for sim
ilar work , bringing the total of such ex
penditures up to $509.127.02.
2. That in addition to these payments
to Hamilton , President McCall expects
him to render bills for his services dur
ing the present year which will aggre
gate about $105.000.
3. That , besides these payments to
"Judge" Hamilton and in addition to the
$235,000 paid him in 1003 , ostensibly on
j account of real estate deals and for
j which he has rendered no account to the
I New York Life , ho was also paid $75-
000 in Juno , 100-1 , for which he has
' rendered no account. The total of the
sums given him , so far as is known , for
which ho has rendered 110 account now
stands at $310,000.
4. That John A. MvCall. who is a di
rector of the Metropolitan Life Insurance
Companjborrowed $75,000 from that
institution at 1V > per cent interest. On
July 1 last , shortly before the appoint
ment by the Legislature of tho insur
ance investigating committee , the inter
est rate on this loan was increased to
2 per cent , at which it still stands ,
the loan being unpaid.
5. That John R. Ilejreman , president
of tho Metropolitan Life , in addition to
borrowing $50,000 from the New York
Life at 1 % per cent , also , it was inti
mated , borrowed monoy from his own
company , the Metropolitan Life.
0. That the New York Life cncour-
apes its agents to get new business on
tho deferred dividend plan by paying
them GO per cent commission of the
first year's premiums and only 40 per
cent commission on annual dividend poli
cies. This , in face of tho fact admit
ted by the chief actuary of the New
York Life that it is easier for an agent
to get new business on the deferred divi
dend system than on the plans for which
the smaller commission is paid.
7. That the cost to the company of
getting new business on the deferred
dividend plan is so excessive that in
1003 tho New York Life hud to borrow
from its surplus accumulations over $7-
000,000 to pay the expenses of business
which in premiums yielded only in that
year about $3,400.000.
8. That , "although diligent search has
been made during the past two weeks ,
no record whatever has been found on
the New York Life of anyone of the
three $50,000 payments to the Repub
lican national campaign committee.
0. That four relatives of President
McCall , all of them employed by the
New York Life at largo salaries , live in
au apartment house at 40 West Seventy-
second street , owned by the company , at
rentals which yield the policy holders
only 23-10 per cent on an investment
of 203,000 , the cost of the property.
10. That President McCall admits
there should be a limitation to the busi
ness which a life insurance company
may roll up ami that the legislative com
mittee should give that subject serious
attention.

117,507,500 and exports at $1,518,402-
833 , both new high records.
Au unusual feature of American for

customs revenues , notwithstanding the
large increase in imports. Dutiable mer
chandise imported reached a value of
$000.071,238. an increase of $03,114,107
over tho previous year. Nevertheless ,
