Chronic Cotarrh.

c. w. Mellier, Of 4o6 South Fourth
street, st. Louis, u twenty years e age,
and has been q sufferer from chronic
catarrh, which had become quite ohea-
sive. When he came to DR.. Hartman, two
months ago, he was told it would take six
months to cure him. But he has pro-
gressed beyond all expectations, and
nearly all signs Of the disease have dis
appeared. Before being treated he could
not breathe out Of the nose, and now he
has perfect control Of the nasal organ.
PERUNA did the business.
James Dunn, Of 1870 Gay street, St.
Louis, has suffered from catarrh since
1870. The gentleman told the reporter
the following straightforward story OF
his case. II took the disease in Mem
phis. 1t commenced in my head and
extended to my throat, and a bad cough
followed. I went to number Of ply
sicians, and they told me my trouble wAs
liver disease, and one said il was pxlpita-
ton of the heart that caused the cough.
For the last year have been practically
worthless. could not ascend fight OF
stairs without suffering from shortness Of
breath and fast beating Of the heart, and
my appetite was very defective. After
eating / often coughed 50 hard that
would throw up everything in my stom-
ach. I could not walk any distance with
out painting. Five weeks ago I went
under the care Of Or. Hartman. and now
my cough has disappeared and feel Ike
a new man" PERUNA was his trest-
ment.
Next came George Sauerbaum. residing
at 1920 Carr street, St. Louis, who IS m
old patient Of DR.. Hartman. He stated
that he had suffered most intensely from
chronic catarrh Of the head and lungs, but
Is now almost cured, his lungs being en-
tirely we'll and his head greatly improved.
The gratitude Of this gentleman was
almost boundless, and he expressed II 70
the reporter In the strongest terms, cay
ing /" PERUEA will cure any disease.'

THE sAwDusT INcENDIARY.
The Mischief Done and Loss Caused by
The Improper Use of Sawdust.

The Mischief Done and Loss Caused by
The Improper Use of sawdust.
The sawdust spittoon should not be
tolerated a day in any building whose
owner is desirious of avoiding loss by
fire. To this apparently harmless and
clearly article are traced many fires,
and it is undoubtedly the cause of those
mysterious CONGREGATIONS which are so
constantly happening. Not long ago
the treasurer of one of the Boston in
surance companies was in New Hart
ford, N. Y, and while there he was in
vited TO inspect the cotton-mill in the
town with view to making any sug-
gestions, as the mill was considered
quite model in its fire protection APP
planes. And so the Insurance official
found it, save in one particular. In the
weave-foom, under pair of match
gears, was a box of sawdust placed
there to catch the oil. ''It's only mat
ter of time, said he, ''when that box
will be the cause of burning your mill.
a piece of rag will fall into the
saturated sawdust and spontaneous
combustion will readily ensue; or
a partially burned match will set
the sawdust smolderingn At this the
mill-owner said he knew now what
caused the fire in the office some months
previously. He arrived at the office one
morning to find that the floor had burned
through where sawdust cuspidor was
placed, and a good fire was being
worked upin the basement. Undoubted-
ly a half-lighted cigar or match had
caused the fire.. after smoldering for
hours. A similar narrow escape oc-
CURED in Boston only few weeks ago.
When the Office boy came round in the
morning to open the building it was
found that the sawdust spittoon, which
stood under the gas-jet in a most con-
yenient place to throw burned matches,
had burned through the floor during the
night and was on fire in the basement.
The building was one of the largest stor-
age warehouses in Boston, and contained
merchandise at that time valued at $780,.
600. A narrow escape for the insur-
ance companies. Railroad stations
frequently use this neat but incendiary
appliance, and they are to be found
everywhere. Underwriters should see
to it that they be absolutely prohibited.
The danger lies in the sawdust. Sand
is just as cheap, answers every purpose
and is safe to use.-BoStoB Commercial

over-Pressure in Schools.

Many prominent English physicians
claim that there is an alarming increase
of nervous diseases owing to over-pres-
sure in the schools. Rev. Edward Ev-
erett Hale, at the same time, urges the
wisdom of keeping children in the
schools o ly during one-half the year,
suggesting that they be required to take
a course of industrial education during
the remainder of the year. The cause
of education will certainly be benefited
by these suggestions and criticisms from
intelligent persons on the outside.
Many measures have lately been under
taken to make the school-room attract
i've and to relieve the children of the
feeling of oppression while in the en-
forced pursuit of knowledge, and it is
coming to be understood that variety
of employment is the best means Of
properly developing its latent faculties.
''Over-pressurea occurs only when there
is long application in a given direction.
A child rarely needs rest; it needs
change. Chicago Current,
