My back ached dreadfully all the time, and I suffered so with that bearing-down feeling I could hardly walk across the room.

For 2,000 years China lias not swerved an iota from steadily pursuing a consistent policy of peace. Tills may be put down to the fact that all the men who hare played a prominent part in Chinese affairs have invariably been true fol- lowers of Confucius, The result is that in China the saying, "the pen is mightier than the sword," is not a high sounding boast, but an active prin- ciple of government. It is the scholar that is to-day the ruler of the empire. The soldier holds a lower place. This subordination of the lighter to the thinker Is recognized throughout the length und breadth of the land. It may be urged that Chinese people have brought much unnecessary suffering upon themselves by their firm adher- ence to the principles of peace. It is true they have left their country practically exposed to foreign invasion. They maintain no effective army; they have no battleships. But China's strength does not lie so near the surface. Perhaps the severest criais which the nation has gone through was in tile thirteenth century, when the Mongols under Genghis Khan, after carrying fire and sword into the heart of Eu- rope, swept everything before them In China. Frora this staggering blow it recovered with nstonishing rapidity. Strange as it may seem, the enlightened opinion of the world is steadily coming around to the position taken by China with respect to militarism. With the view of re- ducing the possibility of war as much as possible, arbi- tration is the method now best recommended for the settle- ment of international risputes. This is a step in the right direction. But as long as nations are armed to the teeth there is always a strong temptation to test the effectiveness Of the weapons they possess. As long as there is powder in the magazines there is always danger of an explosion from a flying spark. The day, however, seems to be still far distant when the na- tions of the earth will agree to a general disarmament. But until this consummation is reached the peace of the world can never be absolutely secured. Bound to Keep the Girl. Mrs. Suburb—I think Mrs. Lawnmow must have a girl at last. Mr. Suburb—Why?

Soon after Congressman Robert G. Cousins' advent at Washington he was invited to a function of very stately formality. Every tiling, was new to him then, even to the evening dress just from the furnisher's. As he left the hotel to enter a wait- ing carriage he was spied by Thomas B. Reed, who took him all in at a glance. "Hello, Bob," drawled the irre- pressible Heed; "what ails you?" "I feel like an ass in a lion's skin," said Mr. Cousins. "You look as though you had a bo» in your bonnet." "Wal," said Mr. Cousins, who also has a peculiarly resonant drawl, "it isn't a presidential bee."

If a fashionable girl marries a poor man she has a great deal both to learn, and to unlearn, and her capacity for these two lessons will be the measure of her ability to become a good wife. But suppose such a girl marries a rich man? We all know, especially in this country, that money alone will not make a comfortable home; It will hire servants, sometimes at tremendous wages, but the air-of this free country is fatal to servitude, and the man or maid who while at home in the old country was the very incarnation of obedience, re- spectfulness and content only requires a few months in one of our cities, with the advantage of reading the papers before they reach the hands of the family and of listening to the lessons of their compatriots who have been here a little longer, before imibiblng the principles of liberty and equality to such an extent that unless the beads of the house are well able to hold their own position they speedily lose it and become the servants rather than the rulers. I Our society girl is not by position and education fitted to ' become the wife either of a poor man or of a rich one. ! Is she, then, never to be a successful wife? Are both poor I men and rich men warned off from trying to appropriate ! her delicate loveliness and dainty grace to the embellish- ' merit of that home for which every man longs in his inmost ' heart? Nay, the case is not quite as bad as this for our dear society rosebuds and half opened blossoms. There is a teacher who can in quite a Short course of most delightful lessons teach the most inexperienced girl, whether she be city bred and luxurious or whether she be country bred and unsophisticated, to lay aside all her previous habits and to acquire a complete new set, to take up the most tedious and distasteful tasks and find them charming, to CKOItGK W.

Shortly after the 18th Brumaire, Table de l'Arade, who was always a favorite with the Emperor, solicited an appointment for one of his acquaintances. "What has he done?" asked Napo- leon. "He has been a journalist, a censurer, a giver of advice, a regent of sovereigns, a tutor of nations. The Bicetre is the fittest place for people of that stamp." Suppose Napoleon liv^d to-day, with his every thought anticipated in the newspapers! Some good newspaper advice might have saved him in the Russian campaign and later at Waterloo.—New Yorlc Press. .

THE UNIVERSALITY OF STOCK GAMBLING. By nomas P. Peters. Don't think that speculating in Wall street Is not widespread. It is almost universal. I will venture to say that few have kept out of the market. Wherever the daily paper goes, wher- ever the telegraph or the telephone reaches, you will find the broker's office, with the blackboard and its mystic figures and its ostensible connec- tions with a floor Arm. The town may be of only 2,000 population, still it is very apt to have at least one broker. The poet was wont to sing of the sim- plicity of the farmer. The artist was wont to picture him at night, after his chorea fere done, sitting about the stove in the crossroads store, talking of the crops and of subjects usually as old as the Civil War. But that is not the farmer of to-day. Now, when his chores are done, he puts on his store clothes and rides over to the village station and gets his evening paper and turns at once to the stock page, or he calls up his broker on the telephone and asks to be informed how Amalgamated Copper closed to-day or what the price of whsat was at Chicago. He is not the simple rustic he could once have been called. He is the business man, deep in the gambling called speculation. Into all walks of life has this gambling gone. I have an intimate friend, once very well off, now work- ing hard for a small pittance and his family greatly re- duced in circumstances. Speculation did it. I know a barber, once prosperous, now living on his brother's farm. He went into Steel common when it was paying 12 per cent upon the investment. No more dividends were de- clared after he bought. He lost about $800 and his little business was sacrificed. I know a widow whose earnings have gone the same way. The great gambling fever has burned into these homes and left only the bare walls standing. THE EVIL OF EXTRAVAGANCE TO DAY. By (fee Dachess ot Somerset. Luxury and selflshness are what we suffer from; we want higher ideals in life; men lack moral responsibility and a graver sense of duty; they mistake mistiness for wisdom and are full of false reasonings. To-day the expenditure and extravagance in dress is boundless, clothes suitable to their age and purse never enter' into the consideration of many. Do they look any the better decked out like paroquets in garments which neither suit nor profit thom? There is effort and anxiety everywhere, and this does not bring happiness or contentment. Dress suitably to your age, to your walk in life ,and, above all, suitably to your purse. The tendency is to waste too much money which might be employed to greater ad- vantage in other ways. I said to a young girl the other day, it matters more nowadays what you have on your head than what you have in your head. The remedy for failure lies with ourselves If we have the courage to face it; the standard of daily life must be raised, men must think not only of themselves, they must strive in the spirit of the "Great Master,' and work while it is day—example is better than precept; we must realize each and every one the discipline of daily toil, daily sympa- thy, daily prayerfulness. OOM PAUL'8 GRAVE. By the Side of His Wife He Sleeps in the Cemetery at Pretoria. Clasped to the breast of the land be loved and for whose freedom, he vain- ly struggled, Paul Kruger, tbe beloved of his people and one of the virile forces of his time, sleeps to-day by the side of his wife in the cemetery at Pretoria. Denied the privilege of returning to South Africa after the war which desolated its fairest fields, it was not given him to die among the scenes of his labors; but with death, his exile was ended and the "lion of South Africa" was borne to virtues cease to influence the follow- ers of the "lost cause."—Utica Globe. TWO BOY8 KILL A PANTHER. Lad of 14 and Brother, Aged 8, Con- quer Mountain Lion. Two boys, one 14 and the other 8 years of age, the sons of Day Stevens, of Aurora, did some pretty nervy work for boys in killing a mountain lion a few days ago, says the Salt Lake (Utah) Herald. The lion had killed a pig belonging to their father in Lost creek, and he sent the boys to town for some strychnine to poison the car- 1 OOM PAUL'S LAST RESTING PLACE. vicinity and one or two frequently. About a year ago a man in Glenwood had a very narrow call with a bear there. The animal attacked him when he was getting out some timber, and he had only an ax to defend himself with, but he used it to such advan- tage that the bear was shortly after- ward found dead. These animals have become very bold ' and destructive. They have killed a number of head of cattle this season and in seasons past, and about a month ago one was so daring that it killed a riding horse which had been tied to a tree and which the rider had left for a few minutes. The patch of timber in which these wild animals have their home is very dense with quaking asp and under- brush and affords an ideal shelter for them. It is not much use for a single person to undertake to hunt them, because the animals tike alarm and get out of the way before being seen. the land of his struggles, his ambi- tions and his hopes, to find his final resting place. It was a had home-coming to those who regarded Oom Paul as the leader of their race—rendered even more sad by the present aspect of South Africa. The brave old man had struggled hard to make the land a white man's land and his success was undeniable until the English coveted his republic. And then came the dreadful war, with its price that staggered humanity. That war, England proclaimed to the world, was fought iu the interests of ad- vanced civilization. Yet to-day the labor of South Africa is not white, nor is it free. It is not even black. Coolies have been imported from China to work the mines and serve the capitalistic class, which has no in- terest in South Africa beyond the wealth of Its mines. They have dis- placed the blacks, indigenous to the soil, and the whites, who hoped to build up a Caucasian civilization in 8outh Africa, and they themselves, mere prisoners in compounds, with every shred of liberty gone except the right of quitting work when their con- tracts expire, are slaves in everything but name. But Oom Paul Is at rest. He heeds not now. , The iron entered his soul Wrheri his beloved republic collapsed in rain. By tbe side of his wife be sleeps —and distant is the day when his same shall be forgotten or his sturdy cass for the lion. When the boys were returning with the strychnine and as they were emerging from a bunch of willows close to where the pig lay they discovered the lion devouring his prey. The elder boy had a shotgun and lie nt once fired at the lion. The shot took effect and the animal gave a loud growl, which so frightened the boys' horse that it turned and ran back. In trying to control the horse the gun was switched out of the boy's hand by the willows. The younger boy jumped from the horse, grabbed up the weap- on and lired the other barrel into the lion just as it was leaping upon him. It was a well-directed shot, entering the throat of the lion and tearing away a portion of its brisket. It bounded into the air and fell dead. The animal measured nine feet from nose to tail tip and weighed close to 200 pounds. The boys got a cart, load- ed the body in and drove home in tri- umph with their game. There are a number of wild, animals, such as lions, coyotes, etc., in the mountains in the east part of this county, and a splendid opportunity is afforded for hunters who have the nerve to penetrate unbroken timber in quest of the animals. At the head of Daniel's canyon, on the east side, between Fish lake and Grass valley, is a regular camping ground for these animals. As many as seven bears have been seen at one time in this Weeping at a Wedding, A Chinese marriage is all ceremony —no talk, no levity and much crying. The solemnity of a funeral prevails. After the exchange of presents the bride is dressed with much care in a red gown, brocade or silk, if she can get it; her eyelashes are painted a deep black and she wears a heavy red veil attached to a scarlet lieaddress from which imitation pearls are pen- dant over the forehead. A feast is spread upon a table, to which the blushing bride is led by Ave of her best female friends. They are seated at the table, but no one eats. The ut- most silence prevails, when finally the mother leads off in a cry, the maids follow and the bride echoes in the-chorus. Then all the bridesmaids leave the table, and the disconsolate mother takes a sept beside the chair of state where the bride sits. The bridegroom now enters, with four of his best men. The men pick up the throne on which the bride sits and, preceded by the bridegroom, form in procession and walk around the room or into an adjoining parlor, signifying that he is carrying her away to his own home. The guests then throw rice nt the happy couple—a custom wo have borrowed from the heathen. Too Generous. George—I have been invited to a "(lower party" at the Pinkies'. What does it mean? Jack—That's one of the newest ideas this season. It is a new form of birthday party.

oman'sKidney Troubles Lydia E. PinKham's Vegetable Compound is Espe­

cially Successful in Curing This Fatal Disease.

mm**

Mrs. J. W. Lang and /firs. S. Frake Of all the diseases known, with

which women are afflicted, kidney dis­ease is the most fatal. In fact, unless early and correct treatment is applied, the weary patient seldom survives.

Being fully aware of this, Mrs. Pink-ham, early in her career, gave exhaust­ive study to the subject, and in pro­ducing her great remedy for woman's ills—Lydia G. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound—was careful to see that it contained the correct combination of herbs which was sure to control that fatal disease, woman's kidney troubles. The Vegetable Compound acts in har­mony with the laws that govern the entire female system, and while there are many so called remedies for kidney troubles, Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege­table Compound is the only one espe­cially prepared for women, and thou-

fare been cured of serious kidney j(MV|e<3rilents by it. Derangements of tfve Itffhlnine organs quickly affect the kidneys, and when a womap has such symptoms as pain or weight in the loins, backache, bearing down pains, urine too frequent, scanty or high col­ored, producing scalding or burning, or deposits like brick dust in it; un­usual thirst, swellingof hands and feet, swelling under the eyes or sharp pains in the back rnnning down the inside of her groin, she may be sure her kid­neys are affected and should lose no time in combating the disease with Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com­pound, the woman's remedy for wo­man's ills.

The following letters show how marvelously successful it is. Lvdla E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound

Mrs. Samuel Frake, of Prospect Plains, N. J., writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham:—

I cannot thank you enough for what Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has aone forme. When I first wrote to you I had suf­fered for years with what the doctor called kidney trouble and congestion of the womb. My back ached dreadfully all the time, and I suffered so with that bearing-down feeling I could hardly walk across the room. I did not gi-t any better, so decided to stop doctoring with my physician and take Lydia E. Pink­ham's Vegetable Compound and I am thank­ful to say it has entirely cured me. 1 do all my own work, have no more backache and all the bad symptoms have disappeared.

I cannot praise your medicine enough, and would advise all women suffering withkidney trouble to try it.

Mrs. J. W. Lang, of 636 Third Ave­nue, New York, writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham:—

1 have been a great sufferer with kidney trouble. My back ached all the time and 1 was discouraged. I heard that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound would enre kidney disease, and I began to take it; and it lias cured me when everything else had failed. 1 have recommended it to lots of people and they all praise it very highly.

Mm. Pinkham's Standing In­vitation.

Women suffering from kidney trouble, or any form of female weak­ness are invited to promptly communi­cate with Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass. Out of the great volume of ex­perience which she has to draw from, it is more than likely she has the very knowledge that will help your case. Her advice is free and always help­ful. • a Woman's Remedy for Woman's IDs.

CHINA'S GREAL LOVE OF PEACE. By Sir Chcntuna Liang-Cheng.

For 2,000 years China lias not swerved an iota from steadily pursuing a consistent policy of peace. Tills may be put down to the fact that all the men who hare played a prominent part in Chinese affairs have invariably been true fol­lowers of Confucius, The result is that in China the saying, "the pen is mightier than the sword," is not a high sounding boast, but an active prin­ciple of government. It is the scholar that is

to-day the ruler of the empire. The soldier holds a lower place. This subordination of the lighter to the thinker Is recognized throughout the length und breadth of the land.

It may be urged that Chinese people have brought much unnecessary suffering upon themselves by their firm adher­ence to the principles of peace. It is true they have left their country practically exposed to foreign invasion. They maintain no effective army; they have no battleships. But China's strength does not lie so near the surface. Perhaps the severest criais which the nation has gone through was in tile thirteenth century, when the Mongols under Genghis Khan, after carrying fire and sword into the heart of Eu­rope, swept everything before them In China. Frora this staggering blow it recovered with nstonishing rapidity.

Strange as it may seem, the enlightened opinion of the world is steadily coming around to the position taken by China with respect to militarism. With the view of re­ducing the possibility of war as much as possible, arbi­tration is the method now best recommended for the settle­ment of international risputes. This is a step in the right direction. But as long as nations are armed to the teeth there is always a strong temptation to test the effectiveness Of the weapons they possess.

As long as there is powder in the magazines there is always danger of an explosion from a flying spark. The day, however, seems to be still far distant when the na­tions of the earth will agree to a general disarmament. But until this consummation is reached the peace of the world can never be absolutely secured.

When Greek Meets Greek* . Soon after Congressman Robert G.

Cousins' advent at Washington he was invited to a function of very stately formality. Every tiling, was new to him then, even to the evening dress just from the furnisher's.

As he left the hotel to enter a wait­ing carriage he was spied by Thomas B. Reed, who took him all in at a glance.

"Hello, Bob," drawled the irre­pressible Heed; "what ails you?"

"I feel like an ass in a lion's skin," said Mr. Cousins.

"You look as though you had a bo» in your bonnet."

"Wal," said Mr. Cousins, who also has a peculiarly resonant drawl, "it isn't a presidential bee."

And for once Mr. Reed was at loss for a reply.—Harper's Weekly.

HAD TO GIVE UP.

THE FASHIONABLE GIRL AS A WIFE. Br Mrs. Frank Leslie.

If a fashionable girl marries a poor man she has a great deal both to learn, and to unlearn, and her capacity for these two lessons will be the measure of her ability to become a good wife.

But suppose such a girl marries a rich man? We all know, especially in this country, that money alone will not make a comfortable home; It will hire servants, sometimes at tremendous wages, but the air-of this free country is fatal to

servitude, and the man or maid who while at home in the old country was the very incarnation of obedience, re­spectfulness and content only requires a few months in one of our cities, with the advantage of reading the papers before they reach the hands of the family and of listening to the lessons of their compatriots who have been here a little longer, before imibiblng the principles of liberty and equality to such an extent that unless the beads of the house are well able to hold their own position they speedily lose it and become the servants rather than the rulers.

I Our society girl is not by position and education fitted to ' become the wife either of a poor man or of a rich one. ! Is she, then, never to be a successful wife? Are both poor I men and rich men warned off from trying to appropriate ! her delicate loveliness and dainty grace to the embellish-' merit of that home for which every man longs in his inmost ' heart?

Nay, the case is not quite as bad as this for our dear • society rosebuds and half opened blossoms. There is a teacher who can in quite a Short course of most delightful lessons teach the most inexperienced girl, whether she be city bred and luxurious or whether she be country bred and unsophisticated, to lay aside all her previous habits and to acquire a complete new set, to take up the most tedious and distasteful tasks and find them charming, to

Buffered Aconies from Kidney Ijisor-ders Until Cured by Doan'a Kidney Pills. George W. Renoff, of 1953 North

Eleventh street, Philadelphia, Pa., a man of good repu­tation and stand­ing, writes: '"Five years ago I was suffering so with my back and kid­neys that I often had to lay off. The kidney secre­tions were un­natural, my legs and stomach were swollen, and I had no appetite. When doctors fail­ed to help me I

began using Doan's Kidney Pills and improving until my back was strong and my appetite returned. During the four years since I stopped using them I have enjoyed excellent health. The cure was permanent."

Napoleon's Idea of Journalist. The worst recommendation that any

man could have in Napoleon's eyes was to be a newspaper writer. Shortly after the 18th Brumaire, Table de l'Arade, who was always a favorite with the Emperor, solicited an appointment for one of his acquaintances.

"What has he done?" asked Napo­leon. "He has been a journalist, a censurer, a giver of advice, a regent of sovereigns, a tutor of nations. The Bicetre is the fittest place for people of that stamp." Suppose Napoleon liv^d to-day, with his every thought anticipated in the newspapers! Some good newspaper advice might have saved him in the Russian campaign and later at Waterloo.—New Yorlc Press. .

THE UNIVERSALITY OF STOCK GAMBLING. By nomas P. Peters.

Don't think that speculating in Wall street Is not widespread. It is almost universal. I will venture to say that few have kept out of the market. Wherever the daily paper goes, wher­ever the telegraph or the telephone reaches, you will find the broker's office, with the blackboard and its mystic figures and its ostensible connec­tions with a floor Arm. The town may be of only 2,000 population, still it is very apt to have at

least one broker. The poet was wont to sing of the sim­plicity of the farmer. The artist was wont to picture him at night, after his chorea fere done, sitting about the stove in the crossroads store, talking of the crops and of subjects usually as old as the Civil War. But that is not the farmer of to-day. Now, when his chores are done, he puts on his store clothes and rides over to the village station and gets his evening paper and turns at once to the stock page, or he calls up his broker on the telephone and asks to be informed how Amalgamated Copper closed to-day or what the price of whsat was at Chicago. He is not the simple rustic he could once have been called. He is the business man, deep in the gambling called speculation. Into all walks of life has this gambling gone.

I have an intimate friend, once very well off, now work­ing hard for a small pittance and his family greatly re­duced in circumstances. Speculation did it. I know a barber, once prosperous, now living on his brother's farm. He went into Steel common when it was paying 12 per cent upon the investment. No more dividends were de­clared after he bought. He lost about $800 and his little business was sacrificed. I know a widow whose earnings have gone the same way. The great gambling fever has burned into these homes and left only the bare walls standing.

THE EVIL OF EXTRAVAGANCE TO DAY. By (fee Dachess ot Somerset.

Luxury and selflshness are what we suffer from; we want higher ideals in life; men lack moral responsibility and a graver sense of duty; they mistake mistiness for wisdom and are full of false reasonings.

To-day the expenditure and extravagance in dress is boundless, clothes suitable to their age and purse never enter' into the consideration of many. Do they look any the better decked out

like paroquets in garments which neither suit nor profit thom? There is effort and anxiety everywhere, and this does not bring happiness or contentment.

Dress suitably to your age, to your walk in life ,and, above all, suitably to your purse. The tendency is to waste too much money which might be employed to greater ad­vantage in other ways. I said to a young girl the other day, it matters more nowadays what you have on your head than what you have in your head.

The remedy for failure lies with ourselves If we have the courage to face it; the standard of daily life must be raised, men must think not only of themselves, they must strive in the spirit of the "Great Master,' and work while it is day—example is better than precept; we must realize each and every one the discipline of daily toil, daily sympa­thy, daily prayerfulness.

vicinity and one or two frequently. About a year ago a man in Glenwood had a very narrow call with a bear there. The animal attacked him when he was getting out some timber, and he had only an ax to defend himself with, but he used it to such advan­tage that the bear was shortly after­ward found dead.

These animals have become very bold ' and destructive. They have killed a number of head of cattle this season and in seasons past, and about a month ago one was so daring that it killed a riding horse which had been tied to a tree and which the rider had left for a few minutes.

The patch of timber in which these wild animals have their home is very dense with quaking asp and under­brush and affords an ideal shelter for them. It is not much use for a single person to undertake to hunt them, because the animals tike alarm and get out of the way before being seen.

the land of his struggles, his ambi­tions and his hopes, to find his final resting place.

It was a had home-coming to those who regarded Oom Paul as the leader of their race—rendered even more sad by the present aspect of South Africa. The brave old man had struggled hard to make the land a white man's land and his success was undeniable until the English coveted his republic. And then came the dreadful war, with its price that staggered humanity. That war, England proclaimed to the world, was fought iu the interests of ad­vanced civilization. Yet to-day the labor of South Africa is not white, nor is it free. It is not even black. Coolies have been imported from China to work the mines and serve the capitalistic class, which has no in­terest in South Africa beyond the wealth of Its mines. They have dis­placed the blacks, indigenous to the soil, and the whites, who hoped to build up a Caucasian civilization in 8outh Africa, and they themselves, mere prisoners in compounds, with every shred of liberty gone except the right of quitting work when their con­tracts expire, are slaves in everything but name.

But Oom Paul Is at rest. He heeds not now. , The iron entered his soul Wrheri his beloved republic collapsed in rain. By tbe side of his wife be sleeps —and distant is the day when his same shall be forgotten or his sturdy

cass for the lion. When the boys were returning with the strychnine and as they were emerging from a bunch of willows close to where the pig lay they discovered the lion devouring his prey.

The elder boy had a shotgun and lie nt once fired at the lion. The shot took effect and the animal gave a loud growl, which so frightened the boys' horse that it turned and ran back. In trying to control the horse the gun was switched out of the boy's hand by the willows. The younger boy jumped from the horse, grabbed up the weap­on and lired the other barrel into the lion just as it was leaping upon him. It was a well-directed shot, entering the throat of the lion and tearing away a portion of its brisket. It bounded into the air and fell dead.

The animal measured nine feet from nose to tail tip and weighed close to 200 pounds. The boys got a cart, load­ed the body in and drove home in tri­umph with their game.

There are a number of wild, animals, such as lions, coyotes, etc., in the mountains in the east part of this county, and a splendid opportunity is afforded for hunters who have the nerve to penetrate unbroken timber in quest of the animals. At the head of Daniel's canyon, on the east side, between Fish lake and Grass valley, is a regular camping ground for these animals. As many as seven bears have been seen at one time in this

Weeping at a Wedding, A Chinese marriage is all ceremony

—no talk, no levity and much crying. The solemnity of a funeral prevails. After the exchange of presents the bride is dressed with much care in a red gown, brocade or silk, if she can get it; her eyelashes are painted a deep black and she wears a heavy red veil attached to a scarlet lieaddress from which imitation pearls are pen­dant over the forehead. A feast is spread upon a table, to which the blushing bride is led by Ave of her best female friends. They are seated at the table, but no one eats. The ut­most silence prevails, when finally the mother leads off in a cry, the maids follow and the bride echoes in the-chorus. Then all the bridesmaids leave the table, and the disconsolate mother takes a sept beside the chair of state where the bride sits. The bridegroom now enters, with four of his best men. The men pick up the throne on which the bride sits and, preceded by the bridegroom, form in procession and walk around the room or into an adjoining parlor, signifying that he is carrying her away to his own home. The guests then throw rice nt the happy couple—a custom wo have borrowed from the heathen.

CONTRACTING CATARRH c(m!T!cIv?n> Few women escape.

The cold wind and rain, slush and mild of win-ter are especially

catarrhal derangements.

Upon the first symptoms of catching cold Peruna should be taken. It forti­fies the system against colds and ca­tarrh.

Pe-ru-na for Colds and Catarrh. The following interesting letter giv<'8

one young woman's experience with Peruna:

Miss Rose Gerbing. a popular society woman of Crown Point, Ind., writes:

"Recently I took a long drive in the eountry, and being too thinly clad I caught a bad cold which settled on my lungs, and which I could not seem to •hake off. 1 had heard a great deal of Peruna for colds and catarrh and I bought a bottle to try. I am pleased that I did, for it brought speedy relief. It only took about two bottles, and I consider this money well spent.

"Ton have a firm friend in me, and I not only advise its use to my friends,

but have purchased several bottles tor give to those without the means to bnyj nnd have noticed without exception that) it has brought about a speedy cur^ wherever it has been used."—Ros» Gerbing.

Pe-ru-na Contains no Narcotic*. One reason why Peruna has found pep

manent use in so many homes is that K contains no narcotic of any kind. Pe runa is perfectly harmless. It can b< used any length of time without acqui»» ing a drug habit. Peruna does not projj duce temporary results. It is permanent: in its effects. .

It has no bad effect upon the system and gradually eliminates catarrh by r*^ moving the cause of catarrh. There lie-a multitude of homes where Peruna ha*-been used off and on for twenty yeaiAl Such a thing could not be possible If* Peruna contained, any drugs of a nai» cotic nature.
