In our mercantile service at the present

'The growth of this army of foreigners
has been a gradual process. BrltHh sail

It is notorious that for years the method
of Inspecting the provisions of outward
bound ships has been a farce. The food
has been Inadequate In quantity and va
riety. Added to this, the cooking hue been

only, while the accomodation has beon
most wretched.
"Not only have these circumstances
helped to drive away dltons from the sea,
but owners, although having a great deal
to cope with themselves, have found It
cheaper to employ foreigners, who would
put up with any kind of food. Tho fact
Is, liowrver. that the liilubli government

Mr. Andor Kiss, 81 Z E. 18th St., Kancas

'1 cannot thank you enough for being
cured. For seven long years I doctored
steadily for my catarrh and conga, whloh
cost me hundreds of dollars.
"But my catarrh grew worse all the
time. Even though I was under the
treatment of some of the most famous
doctors, still I had a terrible cough anl
thought sometimes I would . choke, I
could get no air. .
"I then bought a bottle of Peruna, and

I felt better the following day already.

A Good Appetite. '
Peruna very promptly produces a vig
orous appetite. It is especially appli
cable to those people who have lost their
relish , for food. They get up in the
morning with. coated tongue, and do not
care for breakfast. They drag along
through the forenoon,' sit down to din
ner with a languid appetite, or perhaps
a distaste for food. And so on through
the .day. r
Almost the first dose of Peruna will
help such people. They want to eat at
once. To their surprise,, rood sets wui
on their stomach, and digests well.
It Is the universal experience with Pe
runa that a natural hunger is produced.
Where there is a loss of flesh as the re
sult of disease or fatigue,' Peruna Im
mediately Increases the weight ' of the
patient, good solid flesh.
One bottle Is amply sufficient to con
vince anybody that Peruna is an appe
tiser, prompt in action, harmless In op
eration, and lasting in results. , . .
Chronic Nasal Catarrh.
Mr. Charles H. Stevens, 122 Sixteenth
St, Detroit, Mich., writes:
"It affords me great pleasure to testify
to the merits of Peruna aa a remedy for

"I suffered for some time with chronic

seven bottles of Peruna, I am pleased to

With.
Reference to an atlas, a map or an en
cyclopedia will frequently disclose the fact
that geographical names vary greatly In
the spelling, and often one will And differ
ent names applied to the same objoct.
For Instance, the great extinct volcano
of ' Washington is known on some maps
as Mount Rainier, on others as .Tacoma;
Kongo is spelled in some places with an
, initial "C," In others with "K;" Lake Per.d
Orlene, in Idaho, has been spelled In a
doxen different ways; Dyea, or Talya, in
Alska, Is spelled In more ways than there
are letters in the name. ...
There are upon the maps of this country
thousands of such' cases.
In order to Insure uniformity of users
In our government publications, the presi
dent of the United States in 1890 organised
the board of geographic names. This
board Is made up of men chosen as repre
sentatives of different departments and
bureaus of the government.
It Is the duty of the board, whenever a
case of conflicting usage Is brought before
It. to decide which form shall ba adopted
The decision is binding upon all depart

the ma pa of the United States are first

The work of the board, in the examlna

this is not always feasible. We do not

I was troubled much with catarrh for
several years. I was advised to take
Peruna and used two tjottles of It, whljh
did ms much good.
. "I decided to see my old home in Ger
many again, after an absence of forty
years, and bought a bottle of Peruna to
take while on my way. Whenever I
would have symptoms of catarrh I woul3
take Peruna, and so was very well whll-3
going over. I would advise every one
who crosses ths ocean to take Peruna
along.
"1 was in Germany nine months and
during that time had no attacks. I was
then sixty-six years old.
"Last winter I took cold and got ca

"Everybody who Is troubled with ca

"For a long time I was troubled with
catarrh of the kidneys, and after taking

it the greatest catarrh medicine of the
age, and believe it will cure any case of
catarrh on record. '
"Rest assured that Peruna will ever be
highly praised and recommended by my'
self."
board commonly decides upon tha names
first applied, or selects the most appropri
ate or euphonious name among those In

those applied by the Indians, or those
given by early Spanish or Trench ex
plorers. Oeographlo names,- Ilka other parts of the
language, are undergoing changes all the
time. Some of these are corruptions, like
the substitution of Bobruly for Bols Brule.
In -such cases the board restores the orig
inal 'form, if possible. Often the corrupted
form is too firmly established to be dis
lodged. Other changes that are going on ara de

by leaving off superfluous and silent let

are In the direction of uniformity In spell

It does not adopt the possessive form of
names, such as "Jones' Pass" and "Pike's
Peak," since the person whose name is
thus borne does not own the geographical
feature. It spells "center," not "centre,"
and It drops the final "h" in "burgh" and
'ugh" in "borough" for the sake of brevity
and uniformity.
During its sixteen years of existence the
board has decided many thousands of
cases, and those submitted to It are still
quite ss numerous as during ths first year
