To Physicians.

We do not find fault, reproach or con-
denim the practice of any regular physi-
cian-this is not our mission-but we do
claim that if he were to add PERUNA to
his prescriptions, as directed in our book
on the Ills of Life" land furnished graf
uitously by all druggists), he would cure
all his patients.
Mr.. Henry C. Reynolds, Ironton, Law
renee County, Ohio, writes: My wife
has been sorely distressed for many years.
Her disease or diseases and the symptoms
of them have been so varied that an at
tempt to describe them would be more
than feel able to undertake. I have
paid over thousand I,ooo) dollars for
doctors and medicines for her, without any
satisfactory results. We read so much
about your PERUNA that I was forced to
try it. She has now taken five bottles;
they have done her more good than all
the doctors and medicine that she has ev-
er made use of. PERUNA is certainly
Godsend to humanity"
Mrs. o. L. Gregory, Las Vegas, San
Migvel County, New Mexico, writes: II

Mrs. Cora Engel, First House on La

A. w. Blackburn, Wooster, O., writes:
"Several weeks ago man came to me,
all broken down, terribly nervous, stom-
ach without any power to digest food.
Had tried four doctors; none did him any
good. Asked me to do something for
him. I recommended MANALIN. He

Sight Restored By Fright.

A lady has for years been a great suffer-
n from neuralgia, and at one time was
attacked with congestion of the brain.
From a gradual failing sight the lady
three or four months ago lost entirely
The use of her eyes and became, as
It was thought, hopelessly blind. Expert
medical attendance failed to effect
any relief, and gave her little hope of
ever regainirg her sight. Recently the
sudden and alarming cry of "Fire"
rang from the lips of one of her daugh-
tcrs. Realizing the imminent peril, it
seems that in the despair with which a
drowning man grasps at a straw the lady
made an effort to open her eyes. The
long unused nerves responded to her will.
The alarm proved to be without founda-
ton, but the fright it caused restored a
sight which physicians had given up as
hopeless. In an interview with n physi-
clan a reporter learned that it was more
than probable that during the long time
the lady had suffered from neuralgia the
optic nerves had become weakened, and
D loss of nervous current had ensued,
which was partially restored by the sud
den shock which the fright produced.
The lady now is enjoying comparatively
good sight, and the impression prevails
hat she will fully o

A Demonstrated Moose.

A ha!f-breed Indian in the Dead
River region in Maine has homestead
ed a huge moose, and uses him in the
farm work. In the winter, when the
moose is hitched to a sled and is driven
upon the ice, there is no horse In the
country round about which can keep
up with him. The half-breed turns
his big steed into an enclosure with q
fence OF ordinary height. Once in q
while the moose jumps out and goes
on an excursion, but as he never fails
to return, this privilege IA not be-
,grudged him.

Dynamite Shells from a Big Gun.

noon. About 1000 pounds of air
pressure was used, although the gun is
guaged for 1000 pounds. The shells
were driven from a mile to a mile and
Il half. Half q dozen mel assisted In
loading and firing. Each shell con-
tanned ten pounds of dynamite. Be-
fore each discharge Lieut.. Zalinsky
waved a white flag to the watchers at
Fort Hamilton. Then two or three
men carefully brought out q dynamite
cartridge and charged the gun.
After they had gone back out
of sight a bell sounded, and the next
instant, with a hiss and a scream and
a cloud of vapor. the projectile left
the barrel. One could follow it's
flight until it reached the water. A
dull report and a column of spray told
it had exploded. The range was
made short, because the fog would
have concealed any vessel that might
be at a distant point.
The projectile consists of wooden
bar FIVE feet long. which fills the bore
Of the gun. and to the forward end Of
which an iron cap containing the K
plosive is attached. The lighter
wood trails behind the iron and gives
it a steady course like that of rocket.
Now and then, however, a shell would
take its fight. revolving end over end,
until 1t struck the water. The explo-
sim took place all the same, however.

Got the Reward.

An amusing story of the intro
duction Of the mulberry into Cali
lfornia Is related in the New York
Independent. In the territorial legis-
lature in early days a green country
member introduced and secured the
passage Of a bill giving a reward Of
$1,000 to the person who should first
produce five hundred young null
berry trees from the seed. Shortly
after the end Of the session the
try member received the reward, when
1t was discovered that he already had
his mulberry grove started before he
introduced the bill.

Perhaps some may have asked,
Where do all the fish come from? A
few years ago the answer might have
been. From the coast; and a descrip-
ton of a fisherman, generally accepted.
would have been n who goes forth
at sunset, or sunrise. a the case may
be, and returns the next day, to be
welcomed by his anxious wife and
smiling BARNS. Very pretty, and
very true of the coasters, but by no
means applicable to the deep-sea
smacksmen. Their lot is cast in diff.
ferent places-their fishing grounds lie
far off in the North Sea, where they
toll, summer and winter, all the year
round, with only a few days break &C.
casionally, when they run home to re-
fit. Out on the North Sea there are
of course neither churches nor chapels,
reading rooms nor libraries-neiLher
clergyman nor minister ever comes
round thai way; the Scripture reader
and the missionary find it too far off.
So far as ordinary means are concern
ed, the deep-sea fishermen, our WI
flesh and blood, hailing from u own
shores. working within a hundred
miles or so Of our coast, toiling on our
behalf, TRAVELLING the fish that come to
u markets and tables, might as well
be cruising in the Caribbean Seas.
Year in, year out, it is drudgery and
toll unceasing, without any of those
privileges and joys which raise our
hopes and ennoble our souls. The
Gospel is to them an unfamiliar sound.
True, in boyhood they may have heard
Of such things; but far off in the
North Sea, beyond the reach of pulpit
or press, cast in the company of those
who know not and care not for such
things, they Don catch the prevalent
tone, and 60 with the rest. Bygone
lessons are forgotten in present isola-
ton, and they are apt to sink to the gen.
eral level. AS a rule, singularly sharp
and intelligent in their own line, and
in many ways attractive in their fine,
frank, fearless style. but neglected or
forgotten by the Christian Church, it
is little wonder they have let slip her
teachings and truths. These deep-sea
fishermen are not a small and numeri.
cally Insignificant body. There are
over $4,000 of them cruising in the
North Sea. -Quioer.

a society of young women has been
formed in a Western city for the suppress

by the payment of a fine, which is given
