In several Oriental countries generous offers
have been made of premises for housing the lega-

C. w. Meiiicr, OF 400 South Fourth
street, st. Louis, is twenty years of age,
and has been a sufferer from chronic
catarrh, which had become quite often
sive. When he came to DIR. Hartman, two
months ago, he was told it would take six
months to cure him. But he has pro-
crossed 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. :" | took the disease in Mem
phis. II commenced in my head and
extended to my throat, and bad cough
followed. / went to a number Of ply
sicians, and they told me my trouble was
liver disease, and one said II was palpita-
ton of the heart that caused the cough.
For the last year have been practically
worthless. | could not ascend flight or
stairs without suffering from shortness Of
breath and fast beating of the heart, and
my appetite was very defective. After
eating often coughed so hard that
would throw up everything in my stom-
ach. could not walk any distance with
out painting. Five weeks ago | went
under the care OF DIR. Hartman. and now
my cough has disappeared and feel like
a new man. PERuNA was his treat
ment.
Next came George Sauerbaum, residing
at 1870 Carr street, st. Louis, who Is an
old patient of DIR. 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 1t to
the reporter in the strongest terms, say

I'm We Olden Time.

Uncle Davey was giving the boys
some advice in their love making af-
fairs, and one of them asked him how
the young people did when he was
sparkling.

have no gas, nor no kerosene, nor no
new tangled notions, and we done our

thing about. Sometimes the fire
shined up little too powerful in
places, and the young man would git
up, without sayin' anything, and put
shovelful of ashes on it. Then he
would cuddle up to the girl in the
shadows and she would cuddle up
some, too, and it really didn't seem
like there was anything else in the
whole big round world to be wished
for. Purity soon the fire would git
obstreperous again, and the little
flames would twinkle in and out, as if
they wanted to see what was goin' on,
or had seen, and was laughin' and
winkin' about it, and havin' some fun,
too, and the young fellow would reach
for the shovel and the ashes and cover
the bright blazes all up. And some
times, remember, now, only some
times, the girl would git up and put
the ashes on, and then--wel), boys,

John, of Kansas, delivered an address in the

toms Caldwell, in answer TO a request for
authority to employ seventy-tlve persons in

THE OLD LOVE.

AS one who sees in old remembered hooks,
With eyes that have grown sad with
ceaseless tears,
The same glad beauty of the long lost
years,
And hears again the song of summer

So if from troubled dreams could awake,
And feel thy warm kisses on my face,
l think the sweetness of thy winsome
grace
Would touch me-only for the old loves
sake.
