FRAI'DS IN A IIAI.E OF HAY.
Knitiila in Watch Cases.
According to an article in the Cincin
nati Commercial, a lifty-one pound stone
was recently found in that city secreted
in a bale of hay of eighty pounds.
This is not as bad as finding a lump of
lead of nearly one-half the weight <>f the
solid gold watch case secreted iu the cen
ter of the case.
Gold watch cases are sold by weight,
and no one can see where this lead is
secreted until the springs of the case are
taken out and the lead will be found se
creted behind them.
These cases are made by companies who
profess to be honest but furnish the
means to the dishonest to rob the pub
lic. it is not pleasant for anyone to find
that he has lugged a lump of lead in his
watch case.
Another trick the makers of spurious
solid gold watch cases is to stamp the
case "l". S. Assay." The United States
does not stamp any article made out of
cold and silver except coin, and the fakir,
by using this stamp, wants to make the
public believe that the government had
something to do with the stamping or
guaranteeing the fineness of watch cases.
Another trick of the watch fakir is to
advertise a watch described as a solid
gold filled watch with a twenty or twenty
five-year guarantee. These watches are
generally sent (.'. O. I)., and if the pur
chaser has paid for the watch, he finds
that the Company which guaranteed tlie
watch to wear is not in existence.
The Dueber Hampden Watch Company
of Canton, Ohio, who are constantly ex
posing these frauds, will furnish the
names of the manufacturers who are m
this questionable business.

THE IDOL OF JAPAN-
Gen. Vlncouut Kutnurii In Untied as
tie Gcotkc Wiinliliik ton of the
ImluiiU Km pi re.
Gen. Viscount Katsura, who has often
been spoken of as "the Washington of
Japan," is considered the bravest and
greatest of all tbe fighting men of the
Flowery Kingdom. Two years ago he
became prime minister. He began his
fighting career in 1867, during the civil
war which resulted in the overthrow of
the old order of things in the land of
the rising sun and the adoption of west
ern civilization. Though only a lieu
tenant then, he became known for ex
traordinary courage. He was always
in the thickest of the light, always the
flrst to volunteer to lead a forlorn
hope.
After the war his government sent
Katsura to Germany to study military
matters On his return he took a lead

practically creator or the modern Jap

was again sent to Germany, In company
of the late Grn. Kawakami, to inspect
the German military system. The two
officers were at that time regarded a 9
the most promising men in the entire
Japanese army. Katsura became a
major general on his return home and
was vice minister of the war office un
der Oyama. In 1891 he was made lieu
tenant gc-r.eral. In the Chino-Japanese
war he led his army through Corea to
Manchuria, and later, under Gen. Nod
zu. won many victories. His name be
came a terror throughout the invaded
country. ,
Katsura was born In 184!) in the west
ern part of the main island of Japan.
This province has given birth to many
illustrious statesmen and generals,
among them Marquis Ito. Field Marshal
Yamagata and Count Inouye. The vis
count believes the Japanese are the best
soldiers in the world and says he would
not fear the result if he had to lead them
against any white troops.

WALTER RALEIGH'S PIPE.
! Preclon* Historical Hello Which Is
Owned ami Zealously (luarileU
1»> Prince of \V ulch,
For the last two weeks Americans in
London have been flocking to the ship
ping exhibition In Whitechapel to see a
relic of United States history which will
be interesting likewise to their country
men at home. This Is nothing less than
the pipe smoked by Sir Walter Raleigh,
which is also, of course, the first ever
smoked in England the famous
courtier of Queen Elizabeth having In
troduced the "fragrant weed" into Eng
land on his return from America. Ths
pipe belongs to the prince of Wales, who

always has seen to its being guarded
most carefully, and never before allowed
It to be placed on exhibition.
It is probable that Raleigh used this
»pipe when he demonstrated to Queen
Elizabeth the weight of a given amount
of smoie by weighing some tobacco,
smoking it and weighing the ashes.
Even more interesting than these,
however, are the associations of the
pipe with the latter part of the court
favorite's life. It was his constant com
panion when he paced the battlement
outside the prison at the tower of Lon
don, while composing his history of the
t world. To this day the window in the
| White Tower is pointed out where Sir
Walter smoked his pipe as he watched
his rival, the earl of Essex, walk to the
scaffold erected on the green just below,
and there is equally trustworthy sub
stantiation for the tradition that this
was the pipe that the knight carried
with him to the block when it came his
turn to take "the sharp medicine, but a
cure for all diseases."

CATCHING COLD
Is the Beginning of Most Winter
Ailments' —Pe-ru-na Protects
Against and Cures Colds.
There is no fact of medical science
better established than that a teaspoon
ful of Peruna before each meal during
the winter season will absolutely pro
tect a person from catching cold. Now,
if this is true (and there is no doubt of j
it), thousands of lives would be saved, j
and tens of thousands of cases of j
i chronic catarrh prevented, by this I
simple precaution within reach of j
every one.
After a cold has been contracted a '
tcaspoonful of Peruna every hour will ]
■ shortly cure it, leaving no trace of it
behind. After chronic catarrh has be
come established, or the first stages of
J chronic bronchitis or consumption have
i been reached, it will take much longer
to effect a cure.
It seems strange that as well known
and well established as these facts are
j any one should neglect to profit, by
! them, and yet no doubt there are many
who pay little or no attention to them
and goon catching cold, acquiring
chronic catarrh, bronchitis and con
sumption.
Catarrh May Permeate the Whole
System.
Mrs. Mary E. Sampson, West Derry,
Rockingham county, rJ. If., writes:—
"I had terrible headaches, both ears
run and I was nervous all the time, alsa
had trouble each month; was deaf in
one ear for thirty years. I took six
bottles of Peruna and one of Matialin
and am happy to say that it is the best
j medicine that I ever used. lam not so

j thing I eat agrees with me, and I am
j feeling better in every way. I think
