MRS. ALINE DePASSE.
Mrs. Ale DePasse, 776 E. 165th St.,
New York, N. Y,, writes:
“It gives me pleasure to testify to the
curative qualities of Peruna and Manalin.
“I was afllicted for over seven years with
catarrh of the head, throat and di-
gestive organs. 1 consulted many phy-
sicians, but they “did me no good.
“One day I happened to read some testi-
monials in your Peruna almanac. 1 de-
cided to try Peruna and Manalin, I
bought a bottle of each, and after taking
them for a week I noticed a change for the
better. So 1 kept it up, and after using
twelve bottles I was perfectly cured.
“I also gave the medicine to my chil-
dren and they had the same beneficial re-
sult. I would never be without these rem-
edies in the house.
“I highly recommend Peruna and Man-
alin to all my friends, and in_ fact to
everybody.”

Lead has a

it has an elasticity which permits the
paint to follow the natural expansion
and contraction of the wood. Pure
White Lead (with its full natural te-

adnlterants), alone fulfills all the re-

There are a few of the lower ani-
mals that attain to a greater age
than that of man. The pike, the
turtle, the eagle and the elephant
have been known to reach well into
the second century of life. The
golden eagle has been known to live
nearly 200 years. The most notable
authentic instance of human longev-
ity is that of Henry Jenkins, of York-
shire, England, who died in 1670, at
the age of 169.
IGNORED MAN FOR 27 YEARS.
Jilted Girl Even Forbade Their Ate
tending Her Funeral.
Miss Jennie E. Carroll, who died
a few days ago at the house of her
sister, near Southpass City, Wyom-
ing, had not, so far as was kmown
to those familiar with her life, spoken
to a man for twenty-seven years.
She was forty odd years of age at
the time of her death, and ever since
she came to Wyoming eighteen years
. ago had made her home with he sis-
ter, Mrs. Ella Cobbler. She went
there with the understanding that she
was not to be required to speak to
Mr. Cobbler and did not do so, though
he lived two years after her arrival.
.The story is that twenty-seven
years ago, Miss Carroll was engaged
to be married to a young man in the
East. Guests had assembled for the
ceremony at the home of her mother,
but when the hour came, the young
man did not appear. Miss Carroll
never saw or heard from him after-
ward.
She toek a vow that night, the story
russ, never again to 'speak: to a man.
Before she died she requested her
sister to permit no men to attend her
funeral, and none did attend it.—

Well Dressing Festival.
The annual custom of decorating
the wells of the village of Tissington,
in the heart of the peak of Derby-
shire, which for centuries has taken
place on Ascension Day, was duly ob-
served yesterday, when many visitors
joined with the villagers in the
thanksgiving service held in the
church.
There a procession was formed,
and each of the five decorated wells
was visited, psalms and Asconsion-
tide hymns being sung. Upon the
stone frontage of the wells a wooden
structure, covered with a layer of
clay, had been placed, and flowers
had been wrought into exquisite mo-
saics, with Scriptural passages inter-
woven.

Increased demand for finished steel

and importunate customers seeking
prompt deliveries will make the sea-

‘ww Grange GooG Roads Bill:
e Legislative Comes
best endeavor
The State Grang
mittee are using ti
to get a Good Roads law enacted that
shall be in accord with the views exe
pressed by the Good Roads Commite
tee of the le State Grange. There.
fore, a bill has beén prepared, and, at
the request of the committee, intro-
duced by Assemblyman Hamm and
Senator Cobb, proposing to amend
the Fuller-Plank law so that highway
administration in the money system
towns will be in harmony with the
desire of the Grange.
This bill to overcome objec
tionable features of the present law
by an adjustment of State aid accord-
ing to the assessed valuation “per
mile of road, instead of the valuation
per town. i he classification as
worked out at the instance of the
committee poor towns will receive a
larger proportion of State aid and
towns of like circumstances and con-
ditions be placed upon an equal foot-
ing. Under the present law there is
manifest discrimination, because the
dividing line being at the million of
valuation towns, with more than a
million assessment cannot receive
more than one-tenth of one per cent,
of their valuation, while towns below
a million can draw to the extent of
one-half the amount that they them-
selves raise, without reference: to
other conditions. Many towns rated
as above a million are relatively poor-
er than many towns below a million,
and therefore quite as much in need
of assistance. :
The Grangé bill proposes to
towns with a valuation of less
$5000 mile a 100 per cent. addi-
tion to that which they raise them-
selves; $5000 to $7000, 40 per cent.;
$7000 to $9000, SO per cent.; $9000
to 311,000, 70 per cent.; $311,000 to
313,000, 50 per cent. To gzuard
against unreasonable demands upon
the State a. limitation is fixed for
towns of less than $25,000 per mile
valuation at not to exceed $25 per
mile annually, and towns with a mile-
age valuation in excess of $25,000
shall not be permitted to draw more
than one-tenth of one per cent. of
their total valuation.
Thnis bill was prepared by Patrons
who are thoroughly posted in road
matters, and it’ has been received
with marked favor in Albany. Indi-
vidual members of the order, and
granges that can actsoon, should urge
t T Yepresentative Ti the: Legislat-
ure to.support-its: passage. In this
no Patron should allow himself to be
influenced by unverified reports re-
specting the progress of road legisla-
tion, for the committee is alive to the
real situation and has offered a meas-
ure that deserves support.—J. W.

Florida Will Have Roads.
W. J. Morgan, the well known pro-
moter of beach race meets and moun-
tain climbs, and lately. prominent in
good roads agitation, has just re-
turned to New York City from a sea-
son’s absence in the South. Among
other things he has the following to
say:
‘Five years. ago,
Florida first to look
proposition for racing, Jacksonville
had about one dozen automobiles,
and about one-half of them in run-
ning order. A recent canvass showed
nearly 400 automobiles in Jackson-
ville. Considerig that there have
been few roads that the Florida driv-
er could use in the past, the present
number of cars only goes to show
what may be expected for automobil-
ing in Florida when the present good
roads crusade bears anything like a
good crop. It is safe to say that
there are 1000 automobiles in the
State, but of course that number is
vastly increased in winter.”
Mr. Morgan says that the manner
of conducting future meets on the
Ormond-Daytona beach is somewhat
undecided at the present time. When
the St. John's Canal is cut through
between St. Augustine and the St.
John's River, at Jacksonville, a con-
tinuous water trip can then be had
from the north to the most southerly
point of the United States, Key West.
The residents at the latter place want
a motor boat meet next winter.—The

The Slow But Sure Gait.
There have been numerous disap-
pointments in the outcome of some
of the boys. We remember one boy
in particular who was the butt of ali
ridicule from the boys of his age, and
he took it good-naturedly. He
seemed to have no particular friends
and herded by himself. His clothes
always looked funny and he had that
awkward swagger over which the rest
of us had much sport. No one evcr
thought that that plug would ever
get anywhere or have anything. But
to-day that plug is drawing a better
salary than any two of the old gang.
He has more money, more influence
and more friends than any of the
rest of us. The plug hal a gait that
was slow, but tt was sure. He didn't
appear to be a bit bright then, but he
had a surface that took on a polish.
