    PERUNA A TONIC OF
GREAT USEFULNESS.
fc 'h;D
HON. R. S. THARIN.
Hon. It. S. Thnrin, Attoniey at Ijuv nnd
counsel for Anti-Trust League, writes from
l'ennsylvnnin Ave., N. W., Washington,
1). ('., ns follows:
"IlnvinK used Peruna, for catarrhal
disnytlrvH, 1 sin able to testify to its
gretit remetlinl excellence and do not hesi
tate to Rive it my emphatic endorsement
nnd earnest recommendation to nil per
sons affected by Hint disorder. It is also
tonic of great nuefttl ness. "
Mr. T. liarnecott. West Aylmer. On
tario, Can., writes: "l-sst winter I was
ill with pneumonia after having la
grippe. 1 took l'erunn for two months,
when I became quite well. I nlso induced
young lady who was all run down
and conlined to the house, to take l'eruna,
and after takinir I'cruna for three months
she is able to follow her trade of tailoring.
I can recommend l'erunn for all such
who are ill and require a tonic."

Home people prefer to take tablets,
rather I linn to take medicine in a lluid
form. Such people can obtain l'eruna
tatilels. which represent the solid medicinal
tniirwlienta of l'erunn. Knch tablet is
equivalent to one average dose of l'eruna.
HISTORIC TILE STOLEN.
It Marked the Spot Where President
Garfield Fell.
Somebody has stolen from the
Pennsylvania Railroad station nt
Washington, D. C, the small red tile
which marked tho spot where Presi
dent Garfield fell when ho was shot
by Charles J. Gultean.
The railroad officials have not re
ported the theft to the police. They
think tho thief was one of the
souvenir-mad persons who make life
a burden to the watchmen of Gov-
eminent property. A number of re
quests have been made by souvenir
hunters for permission to buy the
tile, but they have always been re
fused. Fourteen Years' Auto History.
At the Columbia Exposition the
entire automobile output of the
country, one car, was contained in
one small obscure corner of one
building. When the automobile
manufacturers of 1907 wanted to ex
hibit in New York they had to rent
not only Madison Square Garden to
hold the exhibition cars or tne mak
ers who rest upon the Selden basic
patent, but also one of the largest
armories In town to hold the over
flow of what are known as the" Inde
pendent makers. And the floor
pace of both great halls was crowd
ed full of the different types of ma
chines which the country had pro
duced. Outing Magazine. 47
Points on Eyesight.
On a trip through Iceland the
traveler sees thousands of mountains
covered with eternal snow, rivaling
tho Alps In grandeur; great geysers
and Innumerable hot wells; water
falls, one of which the Gullfoss Is
second only to Niagara In size and
beauty; crystal streams and lashing
rivers; lava beds of fantastic
figures, covered with moss that glis
tens In the sun like hoar frost, and,
as a crowning glory, the atmosphere
Is so brilliant, that objects over 60
miles distant appear close at hand.

"For many years I have used coffee
and refused to be convinced ot Its bad
effect upon the human system,"
writes a veteran school teacher.
"Ten years ago I was obliged to
give up my much loved work In the
public schools after years of continu
ous labor. I had developed a. well
defined case of chronic coffee polson
ins:. "The troubles were constipation,
flutterings of the. heart, a thumping
In the top of my head and various

times after exertion, a general 'gone'
feeling with a toper's de3ire for very

"A short time ago friends came to
visit us and they brought a package
of Postum with them, and urged ma
to try it. I was prejudiced because
some years ago I had drunk a cup of
weak, tasteless stuff called Postum,
which I did not like at all.
" "This time, however, my friend
- mado the Postum according to dlrec
tions on the package, and it won me.
Suddenly I found myself Improving
la a most decided fashion.
"The odor of boiling cqfleetio lon
ger tempts me. I am so greatly bene
11 ted by Postum that If I continue to
Improve as I am now, I'll begin to

WHITENING LINEN.
Linen that has become yellow with
age, should be whitened according to
one housewife, by boiling in a lather
made of a gallon of milk nnd a pound
of pure white soap. Put this in a
double kettle so the milk does not
scorch. Rinse through several waters
in the last of which has been put a

RUGS FROM BEDSPREADS.
Two old bedspreads were colored
blue, cut in strips and woven, aB for
rag carpet, into rugs, one four by six
feet and two others ot less dimen
sions. A white fringe finished the
ends, and the velvety surface ot the
rugs when woven gave them, an Or

KITCHEN AND SCULLERY HINTS.
Here are some good suggestions
for your kitchen: Have your shades
and curtains of white muslin that can
be -laundered. When using your gas
stove in the summer, cover the top of
your coal ranga with newspapers,
which will make a handy table. Have
your rack near the stove, so that your
towels will get well dried after each
dishwashing. A small shelf should
be put up near the stove to hold your
salt and pepper box. Cover the wall
back of your sink with oilcloth, pref
erably white, and here ma bo hung
your sink broom, Bhovel, dish mop
and soap box. In a box or drawer
may be kept the necessary articles
for ironing, says Woman's Life. The
top may be covered with oilcloth, and
will give an extra table. A chest
of drawers is useful and almost nec
essary for keep:r.g the kitchen towels
and aprons, besides many other use
ful articles. It is well to keep In the
kitchen a bottle of linseed oil and
lime water, -together with a roll of
old linen pieces for bandages, for use
in case of burus.

MIXED ROYAL MARRIAGES.
Holy 8ee's Hostility to Such Alli
ances Hat Become Greater.
The marriage of the Bonaparte
princess, a Roman Catholic, with
Prince George of Greece, who be
longs to the orthodox Church, is caus
ing much discussion in aristocratic
circles. Several ecclesiastics are
reported to have declared that If the
court has always been favorable to
mixed marriages it is because that in
cases where tthe necessary dispensa
tion has been granted the parties
have not held to the promises mado
ns regards educating the children in
the Roman Catholic faith. It is
added that two recent cases have oc
curred which havo Increased the
Holy See's hostility to mixed mar
riages Prince Ferdlnnnd of Bulgaria, who
became orthodox so that he could be
elected Prince of Bulgaria, obtained
permission to mnrry a Roman Catho
lic princess, and promised to educate
his children In that religion, a prom
ise which It Is alleged was not kept
The second oecnslon Is thnt pf
Prince Waldemar of Denmark, who la
alleged to have made the same prom
ise's nnd never to have kept thorn. As
rogards tho Bonaparte princess It Is
stated at the vntlcan that the parties
will have to enter a formal engage
ment nnd find serious guarantees that
tho children of the marriage shall be
educated In the Roman Cntholic
faith.
How Indians Poison Arrows.
An old Cherokee Indian recently
gave away the secret how the In
dinns of olden times used to poison
their arrowheads for war purposes, or
for killing benrs. They took a fresh
doer liver, fastened It to a long pole
and then went to certain places
where they knew they would find
rattlesnakes In abundance. About
midday the rnttlers are all out of
their dens, colled up In the cooking
sun. The bucks would pnltn t,ie
first rattler they could find with the
long polo. A rattler, unlike common
snnkes, always shows fight In pref
erence to escaping. The snake
would thus repeatedly Rtrike at the
liver with Us fangs until Its poison
was all used up, whereupon It would
quit striking and try slowly to move
tin. The bucks would then hunt up
another rattler and repent the per
formance keeping up with the work
until the liver was well Bonked with
snake poison. Then the polo was
carried home nnd fastened some
where In an upright position until
tho liver beenme ns dry ns a bono.
The liver was then pounded to fine
powder nnd placed In a buckskin bag,
to be used as needed for their ar
rows. This pdwder would stick llko
glue to any moistened surface and
was death to any creature which It
entered on arrows. Denver Field

Record of Railroad Deaths.
The remnrkiible showing of the
statistics of rnllroad accidents for tho
year ending June 30, last, proves that
It has not been without Justification
that the people throughout the Unit
ed States have become aroused to
the necessity of more scientific rail
roading. The figures are furnished
by the Interstate Commerce Com
mission, and Indicate that more men
and women were killed and injured
last year than ever before In the his
tory of American railroads.
The only excuse offered by the rail
roads Is the old one of defective
rails. They declare that they are
willing to pay for the best rails pro
curable, but that the best rails aro
not good enough to meet the re
quirements of present day traffic
While the railroad business has
steadily advanced, while a heavier
strain Is constantly being put upon
the rails, the Improvement In rails
has practically come to a standstill
Ralls that were quite ndequate a de
cade or two ago are no longer con
sidered safe, but the railroads say
they can obtain no better.
The World's Meat Eaters.
Contrary to common opinion, the
people ot the United States are
neither the biggest meat eaters of
the world, nor Is their per capita con
sumption of meat Increasing. A re

last S5 years our consumption of
meat has been steadily decreasing,
while that of foreign nations has
been Increasing.

NATURE PROVIDES
FOR SICK WOMEN
a mnro potent remedy In the roots
and herbs of the field than was ever
produced from drugs.
In the good old-fushloned days of
our grandmothers few drugs were
used in medicines and Lydla E.
I'iuUlium, of Lynn, Mass., in her
study of roots and herbs and their
power over disease discovered and
gave to the women of the world a
remedy for their peculiar ills more
potent and efficacious than any
combination of drugs.
Lydia E. Pinkharii's Vegetable Compound
is an honest, tried and true remedy of unquestionable thernpeutio value.
During its record of more than thirty years, its long list of actual
cures of those serious ills peculiar to women, entitles Lydia. E. Pink-ham's
Vegetable Compound to the respect and confidence of every fair minded
person and every thinking woman.
When women are troubled with Irregular or painful functions,
weakness, displacements, ulceration or inflammation, backache,
flatulency, general debility, indigestion or nervous prostration, they
should remember there is one tried and truo remedy, Lydia E. Pink
ham's Vegetable Compound.
No other remedy in the country lias sucn a recora ot cures 01
female ills, nnd thousands of women residing in every pnrtof the United
States bear willing testimony to the wonderful virtue of Lydia E. Pink
ham's Vegetable compound and what it has done for them.
Mrs. l'inlcham invites all sick women to write her for advice. She has
guided thousands to health. For twenty-five years she has been advising
sick women free of charge. She is tho daughter-in-law of Lydia E. Pink
ham and us hernssistant for years before her deeeaso advised under her
