The Mysterious Tumbler.
This little experiment is mysterious
those that witnéss it to
! seem like magic, and yet it simply is
an illustration of a well-known principle
of natural philosophy. All you need
: to- make the experiment is a marble-
top table, a glass tumbler and a piece
of a candle, ‘
You first put under the legs at one
| end of the table thin wedges of wood
| or paper to give the table a very slight
i moisten the rim car;
incline in the directipn of the other
end.
Now take a plain ass tumbler and

| Gennine stamped C C C. Never sold
| Beware
for the incline, if you have not made
the wedges too thick, will not be great
enough to make the tumbler move by
gravity.
Jut you are going to make the tum-
bler move of itself, so that it will seem
to do so by magical power, To do this
light the piece of candle and hold it
near the tumbler for a few moments.
The heat from the candle will cause
the air in the tumbler to expand, and
this expansion will have the effect of
raising the tumbler just a little ‘from
the smooth marble. The air cannot es-
cape, ‘however, because the water
around the rim of the tumbler keeps it
in,
Then the tumbler will begin to move
slowly along the marble top, for the
slight elevation that the expanded air
has given it makes it now rest on a
thin layer of moisture, and it glides
down the incline by the force of gravity.
A Thrilling Tale.
An artist says that nothing is more
tiresome in his profession than to
have somebody with an untrained eye
pick out a commonplace bit of land-
scape and say—
“There, you ought to make a picture
of that!” <
Writers often have to endure the
same dull commonplaces.
“Now, don’t you put me in a book,”
jocosely counsels some dull person
who would figure ill in print.

Uses Pe-ru-na
For Colds
Pe-ru-na is known from the Atlantic to
the Pacific. Letters of congratulation and
commendation testifying to the merits of
Pe-ru-na as a oatarth remedy are pouring
in from every State in the Union. Dr.
Hartman is receiving hundreds of such let-
ters daily. All classes write these letters,
from the highest to the lowest.
The outdoor laborer, the indoor artisan,
the clerk, the editor, the statesman, the
preacher—all agree that Pe-ru-na is the ca-
tarrh remedy of the age. ‘The stage and
rostrum, recognizing catarrh as their great-
est enemy, are especially enthusiastic in
their praise and testimony.
Any man who wishes perfect health must
be entirely free from catarrh. Catarrh is
well-nigh universal; almost omnipresent.
Pe-ru-na is the only absolute safeguard
known. A cold is.the Beginning of ca-
tarrh. To prevent colds, to cure colds, is
to cheat catarrh out of its victims. Pe-ru-
na not only cures catarrh, but prevents.
Every household should be supplied with

this great remedy for coughs, colds and so
forth.
The Governor of Oregon is an ardent ad-
{ mirer of Pe-ru-na. He keeps it continually

Such material is likely to be of the

said to a scribbling camper—
“I could give you some stories (hat
would make your hair stand on end.”
“Good for you! Give us one now.”
“Well, here's the best of 'em. One
day I went out about nine o’clock in
the mornin’ an’

“Is that all?”
“No, sir! Next mornin’ I went out
about the same time, an’ I shot an-

Most boys have an old silver coin of
some kind, which they are keeping as
a relic, either for sentimental
or because they think it worth

it, even with a strong glass.

“I had a bad cough for six
weeks and could find no relief
until I tried Ayer’s Cherry Pecto-
ral. Only one-fourth of the bottle
cured me.”
L. Hawn, Newington, Ont.

Neglected colds always
lead to something serious.
They run into chronic
bronchitis, pneumonia,
asthma, or consumption.
Don’t wait, but take
Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral
just as soon as your cough
begins. A few doses will
cure you then.

R OF OREGON
CAPITOL BUILDING, SALEM, OREGON.
A Letter From the Executive Office of Oregon,
in the house. In a recent letter to Dt.
Hartman he says:
STATE OF OREGON,
ExXEcuTiVE DEPARTMENT,
SALEM, May 9, 1898.
The Pe-ru-na Medicine Co., Columbus, O.:
Dear Sirs—1 have had occasion to use
your Pe-ru-na medicine in my family for
colds, and it proved to be an excellent rem-
edy. I have not had occasion to use it for
other ailments.
Yours very truly, W. M. Lord.
It will be noticed that the Governor
says he has not had occasion to use Pe-ru-
na for other ailments. The reason for this
is most other ailments begin with a cold.
Using Pe-ru-na to promptly cure colds, ho
wrotects his family against other ailments.
This is exactly what every other family in
the United States should do. Keep Pe-ru-
na in the house. Use it for coughs, colds
la grippe and other climatic affections of
winter, and there will be no other ail-
ments in the house. Such families should
provide themselves with a copy of Dr.
Hartman's free book. entitled “Winter Ca-
tarrh.” Address Dr. Hartman, Columbus,
Ohio.
