A GREAT many remedies to tempore
riljr relieve catarrh bve been devised
from time to time, luch a apraya, emiffa,
creams and other local applications, but, as
rule, the medical profeaaion haa little or
no enthuaiaam in the treatment of catarrh.
It ia generally pronounced by them to
fce incurable.
. It therefore erented a creat ernation in,
pnedical circles when Dr. Hartman an
nonnced that had deviaed a compound
which would cure catarrh permanently-
The remedy waa named Peruna, and in
ahort time became known to thousands
of catarrh aufferera north, aouth, east and
weat.
Letters testifying to the fact that Pe
runa ia a radical cure for catarrh began to
pour in from all directions.
Thousands of such letter are on file in
the oftjee of The Peruna Medicine Co.
Rev. E. Stubcnvoll, Pella, Wia., writes:
"I feel obliged to extend you my peraonnl
thanks for my complete restoration. All
through the winter I auffered from throat
and lung trouble, but recovered my entire
health by the use of your excellent rem
edv. Peruna."
The following letter from a prominent
gentleman of Los Angeles is a case in

A Delightful Prison. I
It Is very doubtful If there la any-
where a more delightful prison than
tbat of Tobel, In Switzerland. There
are very few guards, not more than one ,
to every 25 prisoners, and they never '
think of carrying arms. The prison
ers' cells are constantly open, so that I
the Inmates can easily communicate I
with each other and can tell at any .
time what the guards are doing. More
over, the prisoners are allowed to have ,
paper, ink, newspapers, cider and varl- i
ous dainties from the kitchen,-Including
fried eggs, ot which they are very
fond. One would suppose that pris

Memory Lost After Fall on Ice.
As the result of falling on the icy
sidewalk, Samuel A. Chapman, of Bos
ton, a student at Annandale College, is
suffering from a peculiar malady. On
the evening of January 20 Chapman,
in company with two other students,
called on friends near the college. On
their return Chapman slipped on ths
try path and, falling backward, struck
the base ot bis spine. He suffered no
immediate affects, and being helped
up by his companions, walked on to
the college. Next day be was uncon
scions, remaining so for two days. Up
on regaining consciousness bis mem

he made some progress, looking to ths
improvement of his memory. He la

Floor Space Per Acs,
It Is n matter of great Importance to
know how many her.s can be kept In
one pen nnd at n profit. There is quite
a general opinion that hens which are
allowed to roam at will or have spa
cious yards do best in flocks of forty
o forty-five, and on being confined to
Winter quarters should have about ten
square foot for each ben. From actual
tests this has proved nbout right. They
niny be confined closer if they have a
scratching shed where they can run In
bright weather.
This may be made open to the south
and nnnexed to the hen house, and It
would be better if such shed or apart
ment was closed with plenty of glass
on the south side. This npnrtment need
not be ns warm as the regulnr house.
Mine is of plain boards put on up and
down, nnd cracks battened. It has two
laiatc windows in south, as cut shows,
with spacious door, which can be left
open on tine winter dnys, so the hons
enjny a good warm suii bath. The win
dows should be arranged with curtains
to close cold nights. Most of the feed
Ins is done In the scratching pens in
Utter of chaff or straw. George H.
Townscnd, In New England Home
stead. The Home Vegetable Garden.
All who own or rent homes should
raise their own vegetables, but quite
often it is the farmer who owns the
largest number of acres who does not
raise one-tenth of tho vegetables used
on the place. In planning for the home
gnrden this year try to have some
thing new. Few ever try to ralFo tho
cauliflower, knowing nothing of this
most delicious of all vegetables. Oth
ers try but fall because seeds are start
ed In open ground, when they should
be started In hot beds very early in the
season. Soil must be well enriched
with a good manure. This vegetable
requires a high state of cultivation to
bring It to perfection, and moisture is
one of Its most essential requirements.
Some varieties are naurally self
blanching, while the outer leaves must
be tied over bends of others to Insure
their snowy whiteness. Late sown
sorts are best grown In shade of fence
or buildings. The salsify or vegetable
oyster is one of our best vegetables,
nnd is indispensable for soups. This
not very well known root Is like the
parsnip, and like it one of the few
winter vegetables, bardy enough to be
left where it grows and dug when
needed. This is sown in rows, or
ridges like beets and can he sown at
gardening time in April. Have toma
toes, radishes and summer squashes in
abundance. Many gardeners make one
planting of peas and then stop. They
should be planted at Intervals of two
weeks from early April until June, and
then one can have them in succession
for quite a while. Have plenty of late
beans, for the October benns are usu
ally more appreciated than the early
summer sorts. Sweet corn planted at
Intervals during the summer will give
one any number of delicious puddings
until frost. Do not make the mistake
of waiting until planting time and tbeu
making the garden of whatever bap
pens to be on hand, but make your
plaus early, and order fresh seeds
from some reliable seedsman, then yon
will not be disappointed in poor seed
when too Inte to remedy your mistake.
Laura Join's, in The Kpitomltsfc.
Eradicating Weeds.
"How can we eradicate daisies and
similar weeds?" is asked at every meet
ing. There are some reasons for the
appcurance of weeds which, if under
stood, will show us what to do. One
of nature's laws is that something must
be kept growing on the laud. This is
for tbe purpose of protection. When
the desirable, more complex plants fall
to grow coarser dues come in. Make
the soil a congenial and comfortable
home, so those plants wanted can
thrive, and the coarser ones disappear.
One of the surest ways of getting rid
of daisies Is to use plenty of niuuure.
A second reason Is the neglect to pre
vent their seeding. A common practice
Is to mow the fences after haying or
harvest. At this time most of the foul
weeds have matured seed over a great
er space than If let alone. Many of
them when cut early will form a sec
end crop, which la rarely looked after,
A third reason Is the system of using
machines and abandoning tbe boo,
Wtere tbe fields are level aud level cul
ture is practlcod, where smoothing bar
rows and weeders are used with Intel
llgence the fields are, or can be, kept
clean, but under any other conditions
our fields are 'weedy and much more
weed seed Is matured than under the
old methods. In most cases the hoe
could be used to advantage as of old.
Its use would produce better yields and
fewer weeds.
In fighting the orange hawk weed
(devil's paint brush) an application of
3000 pounds of salt wns found to kill
them, and If applied In the afternoon
wiien the grass is dry did not hurt it.
Salt can be applied to dock and weeds
of that kind with success. The wash
ing of excessive amounts of salt on to
adjacent plots should be guarded
against. The sprrtylng of weeds with
copper sulphate (blue vitriol) Is suc
cessful where used. One oat field was
badly infested with many weeds and
wns thoroughly sprayed. In August
there were few weeds, and the oats
were larger and cleaner In straw than
the unsprnyed, yielding a third more.
The amount used was one pound to
four gallons of water, nnd about forty
gallons per acre. Tlnnts thnt are cov

New Strawberry Plots.
Early In tho spring is when the new
strawberry beds should be made, and
those who contemplate having tbeni
cannot prepare the ground too soon. It
is a fact tbat but few farmers, com
paratively, know how to grow straw
berries. It was for a long time be
lieved that it was difficult and labor
ious to grow them, when, in fact, thero
!s no crop In a gnrden tbat can be
grown so easily, or which gives such
valuable results in proportion to cost.
Strawberries can be had on every farm
nnd abundantly. Growers who make
their land produce maximum crops
have secured 10,000 quarts per acre,
but 5000 quarts may be considered an
excellent yield. TV some Idea of
how many quarts may be grown on a
small garden patch twenty-five by 100
feet, which is less thiin 1-10 of an acre,
300 quarts on Bucb a space Is at the
rate of 5000 quarts per acre. Consid
ering also the qunllty of the berries on
the farm, for homo use, will be supe
rior to any that enn be purchased in
market (as they will be fully ripe and
not Injured by trausportntlon, they will
bo worth at least ten cents per qunrt,
or ?30 for the crop of a small patch
twenty-five by 100 feet smaller than a
city lot. As more berries can be grown
proportionately on a small plot than
on an acre, there Is no reason why 500
quarts should not bo picked the first
bearing season. Tho strawberry bed.
If kept clean and free from grrfss and
weeds, should continue to produce
crops for two successive seasons or
more.
Dow or spade the ground ns deep as
possible, and then spread manure over
the surfnee to the depth of two or tbreo
inches, working It well into the soil,
but before working tbe ground apply
also for an acre a mixture of 100
pounds nitrate of soda, 200 pounds
bone meal nnd 150 pounds muriate of
potash. Let it be done tho first wurm
day, early In spring, and be sure to
work the manure nnd fertilizer well
Into tbe soil and make the soil as fino
as possible. Then leave It until April,
when tho ground should bo worked
over again. For a small patch the la
bor will not be so costly, and, as the
first preparation is tUc most Important
tbe work should be well done. After
the plants arc set out but little work
will be entailed on the farmer. As
there are new and better varieties in
troduced every year get from some re
liable nurseryman two kinds stamln
ate and pistillate (male "and femaic)
plants, as the selection of varieties
depends on whether the soil is heavy
or light. If for a garden make the
rows three feet apart, placing the
plants one foot apart in the row. Every
fourth row should consist of tbe stani
inate variety and the others of the pis
tillate kind. A patch twenty-five by
100 feet would require about 000 plants.
Use only young plants runners from
last spring's growth which may be
known by their roots being nearly
white, those of old plants being dark.
Set them In straight rows, pressing tbe
earth well around the roots, using
water. If necessary, being careful not
to cover the crowns of tbe plants.
After tbe plants begin to grow use
the hoe and work between tho plants
well. A hand-wheel hoe may be used
between tbe rows, and It will work
very close to the plants without Injur
ing them. If the plants are "checked"
In the rows thnt is. placed in lines
both lengthwise and crosswise the or
dinary hoc need not bo used, as the
wheel boo will enable one to do the
work of several men with hoes. In
that maimer a small patch can be hoed
lit nf teen minutes, or even in less time,
DoTiot wait for grass and weeds to ap
pear, but keen Jlie soil loose. During
the summer each plant will throw out
runners, and soou the bed will be
thickly matted. It will be an advan
tage then to cut the stems which con
nect the runners with the parent
plants. Should weeds or grass appear
In the matted rows pull them out by
band. If the matted rows ore a foot
wide It will leave but a small space
between the rows to cultivate. If
water con be applied on a small patch
during a dry spell It will be beneficial.
Along in the fall. Just as winter ap
proaches, cover the rows with tine ma
nure, and over the manure use a light
mulch of salt bay or straw. Early In
the spring rake tho bed over, so as to
remove tbe mulch between the rows,
and after the plants are well up use
straw or salt hay under them, so as to
have the berries clean. These details
are not as laborious as they seem for a
small crop, and if choice varieties are
used the result will be very satisfac
tory. The instructions apply to larger
ureas also, if beavy yields of choice
fruit are desired1. Philadelphia Record.
One of the essentkl of the happy homes of to-day Is a fund of
Information as to right living and the best methods of promoting
health and happiness. With proper knowledge, each hour of
recreation, of enjoyment and of effort may be made to contribute
to that end and arc of not less value than the using of tbe most
wholesome foods and the selecting of the best medicinal agents
when needed. With the well-informed, medicinal agents arc used
only when nature needs assistance and while the Importance of
cleanolng the system effectually, when bilious or constipated, has
long been known, yet until within recent years it was necessary
to resort to oils, salts, extracts of roots, barks and other cathartics
which were found to be objectionable and to call for constantly
Increased quantities.
Then physicians having learned that the most excellent laxative
and carminative principles were to be found In certain plants,
principally in the leaves, the California Fig Syrup Co. discovered
a method of obtaining such principles In their purest condition and
of presenting them with pleasant and refreshing liquids in the form
most acceptable to the system and the remedy became known as
Syrup of Figs as figs were used, with the plants, In making It,
because of their agreeable taste.
This excellent remedy Is now rapidly coming Into universal use as the
best of family laxatives, because It is simple and wholesome and cleanses
and sweetens the system effectually without disturbing tbe natural
functions and without unpleasant after effects and Its use may be discon
tinued when It is no longer required.
All who would enjoy good health and its blessings should remember
that it is the one remedy which physicians and parents well-informed
approve and recommend and use and which they and their little ones
alike enjoy, because of Its pleasant flavor, its gentle action and its
beneficial effects.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all reliable druggists, at the regular price
of fifty cents per bottle, in original packages only, having the name of
the remedy Syrup of Figs and the full name of the Company
