Sic Had COnHTence.

Mrs. II. G. Harshbarger, Manor Hill,
Huntingdon County, Pa, writes: "DR. S.
B. HARTMAN 81 Co, Columbus, o.: I
have been afflicted for three years, caused
by over-work too soon after confinement.
My kidneys became seriously affected;
could not retain my urine day nor night.
It was high colored, thick and bloody.
NV rIonthlies had left altogether for four
teen months, during which time I was
confined to my bed with beating in right
ovaries. The discharge from the womb
was so offensive no one could stay in the
room. The urine continued bloody, with
pain in voiding it, and when in bed would
pass from me in my sleep. have had
three doctors attending me regularly, one
for four months, one of the others one
whole summer, and the third all winter.
We had two others in consultation with
them, and used twenty bottles of differ
ent kinds of patent medicines, all to no
good. then got a bottle of PERUNA,
and before 1 had hree-fourths of the bot
tie taken I quit wetting the bed and could
retain the urine sufficient to attend church,
which had not done for three years,
and my monthlies came back as natural
as ever; indeed, I considered myself a
we'll woman again. Since that time have
had pneumonia. My confidence in Pc
RUNA was so great that did not send for
a doctor. I followed the directions in
your ellis of Life" and am over it, as well
as can be expected of one so delicate as 1
have been. Others in my neighborhood
had the same disease, and among them
were strong men, and had the best physi-
clans, and yet died, while sailed through
in safety on PERUNA and MANALIN. I
sincerely believe, and would say to all the
afflicted in the wide world, that PERUNA
and MANALIN are the only two medicines
that any one needs in any disease, if used
as directed in your book entitled "The Ills
Of Life"
7. E. Fleming, publisher of the New
Dominion, Morgantown, VIVA, writes:
"Some months since, received some of
your medicine in exchange for advertis-
ing. My wife has taken five bottles of it,
and has derived great benefit from it."
Mr.. NJ. c. Pershing, Bradenville, Pa,
writes; My wife has been using PERU
MA for some time for weak lungs and liv-
or and kidney complaint, and thinks it is
doing her great good. Has used only one
bottle as yet. Please send your book on
the Ills of Life as we can't get any from
our druggist"
Mr.. John Denny, Mt. Vernon, o.,
writes " We have a large sale in Pc
RUNA. 1t gives satisfaction"

By the Rules of Tens.

President Stitzeli, of the Berks
Co., Pa, agricultural society, in a
speech before that organization,
said:
"Again there Is another impor-
tant matter that / have often
thought OF, that farmers should
encourage their sons as much as
possible to stay on the farm. The
agriculturist certainly stands at
the head .of all occupations,
and farming is a noble and honora-
bic calling. Take ten farmers, ten
professional men, ten merchants
and ten manufacturers and watch
their operations for a period. of ten
years, and you will find that the
farmers will come out ahead at the
expiration of that time. Many
farmers have an idea that they 10 ust
educate their sons for some pro-
fession. The late Judge Wood

What It Costs.

ave paid in this country last
year to 10000 retail liquor deal
ers, $SOO,OO0,000, and were taxed
$500,000,0o0 more forthe crime pow
erty and huge machinery required to
take care of the results. The enor-
nous sum OF $1,300,00O was paid
for what? Not for bread, meat, or
clothing; not for homes and COM
fort; not for health or education,
but for. the enlargement of prisons,
the multiplying of places for help
lessness. the needless sickness, the
preventible misfortunes, the va
grancy and brutal crimes that all
the property you and 1 possess is
levied on to pay for. It scatters no
beauty or blessing in single home.
1t holds back no murderous hand
1t is the factor in all that degrades
and imbrutes. 1t promotes crime
and fills the land with blood. 1t
fosters improvidence, and creates
poverty. Is it not a blunder that
such trade is permitted to exist
not only permitted, but protected,
patronized and defended as no 9TH
er trade is in our land? The out
RACES cause but a passing shudder
and feeble protest, while the awful
work of ruin and death goes on. A
young man, apparently respectable
went to the police to give himself
in charge. He said he had hurt his
wife. They found her lying on the
floor, her throat cut, the babe five
months old sitting by her side
with her little hands smearing her
mothers blood on her baby face.
Were such a horror produced by
any other agency than drink, the
whole community would be stirred
to the very depths with righteous
indignation. But it is simply re-
corded in the daily papers as an
item, without protest; and this
goes on and on. Shall it go on
forever God forbid. If we can do
nothing more we can and will pro
test against so demoralizing and ru-
nous a traffic. Protest at home and
at the ballot box; strike hard at
the drinking customs at public re-
ceptions, at the decanters and whis-
ky TASKS, at lthe cut glass of the
moderate and the rum-jug of the
lnebriate. Strike in the name of
justice purity and humanity. Strike
for the love ofcountry, andIin behalf
OF suffering women and children.
Strike in our churches, at our fami-
ly affairs, at our private praying.
Strike till we die; and by Gods
help we shall do something to re-
pair the most awful national and
social blunder of the nineteenth
century."-John B. Gcug OH.

"While VIC are talking about this
there is another point that wish
to touch on, neighbor. Now you
seem to hold to the idea that the
amount of land cultivated must
govern the income derived. 1t is
the amount of labor and capital put
upon the land that governs the in

would give profitable employment
to twenty men if need be. and all
their accumulated working capital.
The possibilities of an acre have
never yet been reached and perhaps
never will be. We must get rid Of
that foolish notion that a man can
not farm it unless he has so or 160
acres of land. The practical work

Lattuoa IN Winter.

Under this caption We found the
following recipe in an old book, and
give it to our readers more as an
evidence of the credulity of our an
cestors than with any faith in the
recipe. However, as it costs but
little trouble or expense to try it,
we hope some of our readers will
make the experiment and give us
the results. 1t is as follows:
"Take two parts of rich earth and
one part of slaked lime; take some
lettuce seed, soak them in strong
brandy twenty-four hours, then
plant the seed in box and keep il
moist with lukewarm water, setting
the box in a warm room. In forty
eight hours, we are assured, but
don't vouch tor it's truthtulness
good-sized heads of lettuce will
have formed"
Neither do we vouch for it, but
still it is worth trial, as the time
soon expires.-Spirit of the Farm

Welded Under Difficulties.
.umhia (TexN Disnatch

\
An exciting and dramatic Incl
dent occurred here last evening.
Sunday morning two men rode into
town. Their remarkable appear
ance at once attracted the attention
of every one. They were covered
with mud and carried perfect ar
senal of rifles, pistols and knives
with them. One was man over
go, with long, gray hair and blood
IN his eye; the other was man of
80 years, built like a giant and
wearing terrible scoWl on his face.
They were father and son, William
Wofford and Sam Wofford, from
the backwoods of Matagorda coun-
ty. The old man said he was look
ing for his "darter Kate" who had
slit OUT with her cousin, Bill Wof-
ford. Yesterday the father and son
located the runaway couple, who
were occupying small fsherman's
tent half mile outside the town.
When old Wofford found out the To-
cation of his erring "darter" large
crowd of curious men and boys fol-
lowed the terrible-looking pair to
the vicinity Of the tent, as the old
msn kept continually examining his
gun and saying: "San, I'm go'en
to kill him, suahr' AS they neared
the tent the crowd fell back, while
the old man and his giant son ap-
preached with rifles in hand. Sud-
denly the flap Of the tent was vio-
lently thrown open from the inside
and there stood Bill and Kate, each
holding a terrible Winchester rife
One covering the old man and the
other the son. Old grayhead and
Sam glared like two wild beasts on
the brave lovers and Bill called out:
''Do you s'pose Pm goin to give her
up arter we done tramped it togeth-
er all the way from the Colorado to
the Brazos? Not much; she's mine
an you may STAN there now and
see us married" The old man and
Sam, under cover of the suggestive
Winchesters, slowly moved back, all
the time facing the boy Bill and his
Kate, who had the drop on them.
D16stu JlIIlO u COGAIOE ntQ gone To
town for license and a preacher.
and after nearly two hours, during
which time Bill and Kate never took
their eyes of the old man and Sam
and threatened to kill either should
he raise hand, the preacher and
the license arrived.
During the ceremony the bride
groom kept his rifle at a half-cock
pointing toward his father-ln-law.
The preacher was so afraid they
would open hostilities while he was
there that he could scarcely finish
the ceremony. After the marriage
the old man delivered a terrible
curse on both, said he would spare
their lives now, provided they never
set foot in Matagorda county: eff
you do" said he, as he shook his
long, dirty, yellow locks and vio-
lently struck mis- rifle with one hand,
''if you do, you're both on you dead
soon as you cross the line, for when
I'm gone Sam he's there. You've
got the whole world before you
'cept Matagorda county. Now gow
With this philippe the old man and
son departed forlorn, while Bill pull
ed down the flap of the tent.

United States Senator Hoar OF
Massachusetts, in his letter to the
recent unitarian convention in Bos-
ton, said: 81 believe that every
Indian child not belonging to the
civilized nations should be educat
ed and taught agriculture or some
trade or useful occupation at the
public charge. This policy, pursu-
ed for ten or fifteen years, will re-
lieve US of the Indian question. We
shall have no Indian wars with
tribes whose children are in our

granted; and as fast as possible,

habits and prejudices of the In
dians, lands in severallty."
