MEDICAL
Of the United States Treasury Recommends
Pe-ru-na.
fcwtber Praminent Physician Uses
and Enssrset Pc-hMta.
DR. LLEWELLYN JORDAN. Medi
cal Examiner of the U. 8. Treas
ury Department, graduate of Co
lumbia College, and who served three
years at West Point, has the follow
ing to say of Peruna:
"Allow me to express my grmth
tw4e to you for the heme fit 4mrhrm4
from your womeJerful remedy.
Omm amort month has brought
forth m vast change mad I mow

momths of suffering. Fellow suf
ferers, Peruma will euro you."
A constantly increasing number of
physicians prescribe Peruna in their
practice. It has proven its merits so
thoroughly that even the doctors have
overcome their prejudice against so
called patent medicines and recom
mend it to their patients.
Peruna occupies a unique position
in medical science. It is the only in
ternal systemic catarrh remedy
known to the medical profession to
day. Catarrh, as everyone will admit,
is the cause of one-half the diseases
which afflict mankind. Catarrh and
catarrhal diseases afflict one-half of
the people of United States.

In the house complaint was entered
against the railroads for the length of
time they take to get lumber into Ne
braska and the way in which they treat
the dealer. Lumber is sometimes on
the road a month, with the dealer un
able to locate it. When it does arrive,
1 unless it is unloaded within forty
eight hours the purchaser has to pay
a day demurrage. Frequently the
cars stack up on the dealer and injnany
cases shippers have been unable to
unload the cars within the prescribed
time, and have had to pay the demur
rage chargeswhen it is all the fault
of the railroads. Should a measure be
introduced to regulate this evil it will
have the support of the lumber deal
ers, who two years ago were tied up
with the railroads. The following
members were excused from attend
ance for thev remainder of the week:

Testing the Richness of Milk.
Dairymen abroad have been experi
menting for the purpose of determin
ing which yield of milk, the morning
or evening, is .the richer of the two.
The decision was in favor of the even
tag milk being the richer, both for but
ter and cheese making Qualities. The
milk of cows fed on ground feed in
winter was richer than that produced
by the same cows from grass im the
summer.
Raw Food In the North.
The eating of raw fish is by no
means confined to the Esquimaux
Fairly well smoked salmon, cod and
trout are eaten raw by Indians aad
Canadians alike, snd sre both palata
ble and easily digested when cut with
a sharp knife into the thinnest pos
sible slices, much ss old woodsmen
like to shsve off the chipplngs of s
well smoked but uncooked csribou
ham.
Happiness in Pastry.
There sre so msny holy snd tender
emotions flying about in our inward
world, which. l:se angels, csn never
assume the body of an outward act;
so many rich snd lovely flowers spring
up which besr no seed, thst it is s
hsppiness poetry wss Invented, which
receives into its limbers sll these in
corporeal spirits, and the perfume of
all these flowers. Jean Paul Richter.
Modern Surgical Methods.
The use of the needle snd thresd
in closing wounds has come to be a
fine art. In former days the surgeons
were mere bunglers, and most wounds
left hideous scars. But at the present
day the manner in which arteries sre
ligatured, tendons spliced." intestines
sutured and wounds closed Is the
foundation of success, no skilled use
of the scalpel taking its place.
The Simple Life in Gotham.
After sll. the simple life Is wide
spread here. We do nothing but labor
to get a few dollars to pay the office
holders. Political bosses do all our
thinking for us. so we have no cares
along that line, but simply work and
sleep until it's time to go to the poor
house. Surely nothing could be sim
pler. New York Telegrsm.
Msgnesits in California.
Magneslte. which is used in the

posits in the United States. Hither

Character Told by the Chin.
The chin is one of the most sub
stantial parts of the face when It is
normal, and by physiognomists Is said
to register unerringly certain charac
teristics, to tell on one for weal or
woe." Others say that this is not so.
for one may smile and yet be a villain,
and the smile is what makes the fa
cial characteristic.
And Chain the Mat.
A Brooklyn minister of a prag
matical turn of mind has his front
doormat chained to his house, and
to inculcate the right spirit in the
passerby has had the motto "Trust in
God" worked in scarlet letters of large
seize in the middle of the mat.
Russian Bristles Best.
A first essential of a good hairbrush
is that the bristles should really be
bristles, not imitations, and that they
should be of a good kind. Russian
bristles are the best; they are ob
tained from the back of the wild boar.
ALL DONE OUT.
Veteran Joshua Heiler, of 706 South
Walnut street. Urbana. 111., says: "In
the fall of 1899. after taking Doan's
Kidney Pills I told
the readers of this
paper that they had
relieved me of kid
ney trouble, dis
posed of a lame
back with pain
across my loins and
beneath the shoul
der blades. During
the Interval which
has elapsed I have
had occasion to re
sort to Doan's Kid
ney Pills when I
noticed warnings
of an attack. On each and every oc-
:as!on the results obtained were just
cs satisfactory as when the pills were
Qrst brought to my notice. I Just as
zmphstically endorse the preparation
to-rlsy ss I did over two years sgo."

New Matsrial for Ships' Decks.
A substance called petrollgnlte i
being adopted as a material for tbe
decks of ships. It Is prepared from
sawdust, mixed with certain minerals,
and formed Into slabs, under high hy
draulic pressure. Its valuable prop
erties are that it is non-inflammable,
and is not slippery when wet.
To the housewife who has not yet
become acquainted with the new things
of everyday use in the market and
who is reasonably satisfied with the
old. we would suggest that a trial of
Defiance Cold Water Starch be made
at once. Not alone because it in guar
anteed by the manufacturers to be su
perior to any other brand, but because
each 10c package contains 16 oz..
while all the other kinds contain but
12 ozs. It Is safe to say that the lady
who once uses Defiance Starch will use
no other,
win.
