Spring Catarrh is a well de
fined Spring disease. The
usual symptoms 'are given
above. A bottle of Pe-ru-na
taken in time will promptly
arrest the course of the dis
ease known as Spring Catarrh.
Taking ? the Initiative.
There is a certain satisfaction in tak-
mg the enemy unawares on bis- own
v ground , in downing him with his own
sveapons. President Polk evidently
took comfort-in his method for miti
gating the hand shake , that curse of
the chief executive office , and he must
have chuckled when he wrote in his
liary the bit which is given in James
Schouler's "Historical Briefs : "
If a man surrendered his arm to be
shaken by one horizontally , by another
perpendicularly and by another with a
itrong grip , he could not fail to suffer
severely by it But If he would shake
and not be shaken , grip and not be
gripped , taking care always to squeeze
the hand of his adversary as hard as
*
the adversary squeezed him , he would
suffer no inconvenience by it. I can
generally anticipate a strong grip from
a strong man. I take advantage of
him by being quicker than he and seiz
ing him by the tips of his fingers. This
te stated playfully , but it is all true.
Realized It Herself.
The angry waves broke upon the state
ly vessel.
"Isn't the commotion terrible ? " ex
claimed the young man with the steamei
cap and the camera.
"O , yes ! " moaned the pale young wom
an in the steamer chair. "You feel it ,
too , do you ? '

Apparently Inventors are , continually
endeavoring to combine in one articles
which were formerly made in several
distinct units. This
is particularly the
case in regard to
kitchen utensils. A
novel combination
of this kind Is
shown in the illus
tration. In this de
vice a St. Louis
man has succeeded
in combining a
fork , a spoon , knife
and can opener. Atone
HAS MA27Y USES.
one end is the fork ,
at the other end the spoon , knife and
can opener. By thus combining these
four articles in one the economical
housewife can save expenses , obtaining
the four articles for the cost of one. It
aiso means less silverware to wash
the one combined utensil requiring less
cleaning than the four.
Cream Puff.
Put four tablespoonfuls of butter and
a cup of water together in a sauce
pan and place over a slo\\r fire. Have
already measured one cup of flour and.
as soon as the water and butter reach
the boiling point , add the flour all at
once and stir vigorously. When thor-
oughlj' mixed remove from the fire and
add four unbeaten eggs , beating the
mixture between the times that each
egg Is added. Drop by the spoonful on
buttered pans , having a space of one
and one-half inches between each puff.
Bake in a slow oven for half an hour.
When done and cool cut a slat in the
side of each puff and fill with sweet
ened .whipped cream. Use to a cup of
cream four tablespoonfuls of powdered
sugar and one-half teaspoonful of va
nilla. This recipe makes eight puffs
Giblet Pic.
This is a nice change , occasionally.
Two sets of giblets will be required ,
and half a pound of beefsteak. Pre
pare and thoroughly clean the giblets ,
and throw into a saucepan , cover with
water and bring to the boil. Skin
them well , add salt , and simmer very
slowly for an hour and a half. Cut
the giblets into pieces of regular size ,
dip into seasoned flour , and mix with
half a pound of beefsteak cut into thin
slices , also thickly flavored. Pour in
sufficient thoroughly seasoned stock to
cover. Cover the pie with a nice , short
crust , pierce a hole in it , decorate with
pastry leaves , and bake slowly for one
hour.
Xeopolitans.
One cup of powdered sugar , one-hall
cup of butter ; two tablespoonfuls of
lemon Juice , three eggs , yolks and
whites , and three egg yolks , beaten
separately ; three cups of sifted flour.
Mix all the above ingredients , add a
half-teaspoonful of soda dissolved in a
tablespoonful of milk. If too stiff to
roll out , add a little more milk. Roll
Into a sheet a quarter of an Inch thick
and cut into small rounds. Place in
a slightly greased baking pan ; brush
the tops with beaten egg and milk and
sprinkle finely chopped almonds over
all.
Corn Souffle.
Heat one pint of milk ; stir Into it
three-fourths q a cup of corn meal
and cook until Ihlck and smooth. Add
salt and a little butter ; beat Into this
the well-beaten yolks of four eggs and
then the whites , which have been beat
en separately. Pour into a baking dish
and cook twenty-five minutes in a moderate -
erate oven. Serve at once.
Maple Sugar Candy.
Break into very small bits one pound
maple sugar and stir Into it one cup
of cream and one cup of milk , mixed ;
turn Into the blazer and boil , stirring
all the time to prevent scorching , until
a little Lardeijs in cold water , then
beat Into it as many hickory nuts
( kernels ) as it will take ; then turn butte
to cool.
Short Sncreestlons.
Green vegetables should be put into
boiling water with a tiny pinch of soda.
Paint brushes can be cleaned by
washing In hot soda water and soft
soap.
In blowing out a candle hold It aloft
and blow upward. This will prevent
the scattering of the grease.
A most effective way to clean linole
um is to wash first with a little water ,
and then polish by applying mjjfe.
A lemon should always be kept near
the kitchen sink , as a slice of raw
lemon will remove all stains from the
hands.
The shank bones of mutton , so little
valued in general. If well soaked add to
the richness of gravies and soups for
sick room broths.
To remove medicine stains from
spoons rub with a rag dipped In sul
phuric add , wash with soapsuds and
polish with soft chamois skin.
Heat a lemon thoroughly before
squeezing It , and you will obtain nearly
double the quantity of Juice that would
be obtained if it were , not heated.
Potatoes will bake more quickly If
boiled in salted water for ten minutes ,
then put in the oven. The boiling
plater will heat them through so they
cook In a short time. *
WiANCIAL
CHICAGO.
No important developments appear to
detract from the underlying strength
which sustains confidence in the business
outlook. Weather conditions were mainly
favorable to operations and activity is
more evident in production aud distribu
tion. Leading retail lines find the gen
eral demand steadily expanding , indicat
ing that the purchasing power is undiminished -
ished , but there is some accumulation of
lightweight apparel , which needs a warm
wave to bring quick disposal. Wholesale
dealings now show the effect of the be
tween seasons period and current ship
ments dwindle , but forward buying for
fall and winter supplies compares favorably -
orably with a year ago , and road sales-
.cuen obtain orders making a substantial
aggregate in the principal staples.
Notwithstanding the late .spring and
other adverse factors , farm conditions in
both Illinois and Iowa never before were
more encouraging , and land and stock
values have advanced to the highest aver
age. Mercantile credits remain quite sat
isfactory and money works easier , while
trading defaults occasion little anxiety.
Failures reported in Chicago district
numbered 20 , against 17 last week and
23 a year ago. Dun's Review of Trade.
NEW YORK.
Cross currents in trade and crop con
ditions prevent generalization. There has
been a further slight improvement in
crop condition. This has made for a
more optimistic feeling as to ultimate
yields and future trade in the sections
enjoying even a small share of seasonable
weather , but the great majority of cities
and particularly those in the eastern half
of the country complain of continued slow
retail trade and collections. On the other
hand the reports as to fall trade are quite
satisfactory , a reflection possibly of the
fact that retail stocks of heavy goods
were well cleaned up last winter. Crop
uncertainties and the fact that reorder
business this spring has been practically
absent in many lines , however , induce
conservatism as to future ordering and
there is less disposition to embark freely
in future commitments until the situa
tion becomes clearer.
Business failures in the United States

Disasters Hurt Pacific Mail.
The annual report of the Pacific Mail
Steamship Company says that its earn
ings were $4,839,245 , a decrease of $885-
092 , beinj * attributed to numerous wrecks
and to the effects of the San Francisco
earthquake.
Price of Bread-stuffs Up.
The threatened shortage in the wheat
crop and the high price of that commod
ity are now reflected in the boost in the
price of flour , which has risen from $4.50
to $6 in the last month. If continued ,
this would necessitate a smaller loaf or a
: ent advance in price.
Iron and Steel Exports.
The bureau of statistics at Washington
agures the probable total of iron and steel
wports for the Gscal year at $ 75,000-
XX ) , as compared with $57,000,000
1897. .
The Revolver.
The revolver is of dubious service in
War. Its only function there Is as a
cavalry we'apon. Indeed , It Is an evolution
lution of the mediaeval purpose to pro
vide horse soldiers with a firearm. In
the cavalry the weapon is effective only
up to fifty yards. It has no value for
hunting. The average man can do
more execution on birds and beasts
with a slingshot The only purpose-
which the revolver serves Is to kilV
another man , and even for that pur
pose its usefulness is overestimated.

"Women for the most part spend
their lives at home , and it is these
women who are willing1 and ambitious
that their homes shall be kept neat
and pretty , their children well dressed
and tidy , who do their own cooking1 ,
sweeping1 , dusting1 and often washing1 ,
ironing1 and sewing1 for the entire
family , who call for our sympathy.
Truly the work of such a woman
is "never done" and is it any wonder
that she breaks down at the end of a
few years , the back begins to ache ,
there is a displacement , inflammation
orulceration of the abdominal organs ,
a female weakness is brought on , and
the struggle of that .wife and mother
to continue her duties is pitiful.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound , made from native roots
and herbs , is the exact medicine a
woman needs whose strength is over
taxed. It keeps the feir.inine organs
in a strong1 and healthy condition.
In preparing for childbirth and re
cuperating1 therefrom it is most effi
cient. It carries awoman safely
through the change of life and in

Mrs. Sadie Abbott , of Jeannette ,
Pa. , writes :
Dear Mrs. Pinkham
"I suffered severely with pain every
month and also a pain in my left side. My
doctor prescribed for me but did me no
good ; a friend advised Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound and I wrote you in
regard to my condition. I followed your
advice and am a perfectly well woman. The
pains have all disappeared and I cannot

Mrs. Pree McKitrick , of La Farge ,

Dear Mrs. Pinkbam :
"For.six years I suffered from "female
