Catarrh Cures Considered.
THEIR EFFECTS, DEFECTS AND DIFFER
ENCES

THEIR EFFECTS, DEFECTS AND DIFFER
ENCEs.
Catarrh medicines are OF two classes
those that cure and those that relieve.
Those that cure are called specifics;
those that only relieve are called pallia-
tives. The number OF specific catarrh
remedies is small indeed; the number
OF catarrh paliatives is Legion. The
effect of catarrh palliatives is often i'm
mediate. but always temporary; they
never cure. This kind of catarrh medi.
cines includes sprays, snuffs, inhalants.
gargles and local applications of all
kinds. They seem to cure for awhile,
but the disease is sure to return.
Pe-ru-na belongs to the class of
catarrh remedies called specifics. Pc
ru-na does not palliate the symptoms.
but cures the disease. 1t is sometimes
slow in its action on old cases of chronic
catarrh, but it is rare. and its effects are
permanent 1t is also an unfailing
remedy for coughs, colds, bronchitis,
consumption in its early stages, and all
the chronic diseases of winter. An ex-
excellent treatise on catarrh will be
sent free to any address by the Pe-ru-na

How to Keep a Chameleon.

The Florida chameleon, which also is
frequently brought home by the tourist,
is bright and intelligent creature. He
requires almost unlimited sunshine to
bask in, and flies, which he catches on
the end Of his long tongue, to eat. A
fernery is a comfortable place for him.
This fellow, it is said, has temper, and
if not we'll treated or if teased he will
show fight, though he can hardly do
much harm. The genuine chameleon,
after whom the Florida lizard is named,
is one of the quaintest and oldest OF
pets, but he is a native of the old world
and rarely seen in our country.
Another American of the family, often
sent from the west and south to pet
lovers, is called the horned toad, though,
he is no toad, but lizard. He is said to
be an interesting pet and capable of be-
ing taught. All the small members of
this race live on insects and need to be
kept in very warm quarters. Olive
Thorne Miller in Harper's Bazaar.

An Eccentric Washington Woman.


There is a woman in Washington So
ciety whose eccentricities in certain lines
are so we'll known as to pass without
comment. Her position as matron of
literary proclivities is the motive for sun
dry gatherings at her house during the
season. On one occasion the guests bid
den to the literary feast were informed
upon arrival that they must enter by a
side door, as the morning being rainy
they would otherwise track mud over the
hall carpet. That the hostess is not SO
much a respecter of persons as of things
is further evidenced by her conduct at
an afternoon reception.
Those of her guests whose garments
were ornamented with jet were asked
during their stay to remain in the second
parlor, where the furniture was Of ma
hogany. This sorting out process was
explained by the frank announcement
that if people would wear sharp orna.
ments on their clothes she must protect
her own property by excluding them
from the sacred precincts of the first par
lor so that the rosewood furniture could
not be scratched.-Kate Fields Wash

To Remove Substances From the Eve.

To remove the solid particles from un-
der the lids, it is sufficient to pull the lid
away from the eye and to wipe the body
with piece Of moist paper or the corner
Of a handkerchief. If it is under the up
per lid, grasp the lid firmly between the
thumb and finger, lift it from the eye
ball and draw it down over the lower
lid, and then allow it to slide slowly
back to it's natural position. The foreign
body will be scraped off on the lashes.
The operation may be repeated several
times. Or lift the lid from the eyeball,
allow the tears to accumulate beneath
the lid and forcibly blow the nose. Or
place in the eye few grains of f1axseed,
which, forming nucilage, will prompt
ly bring relief. Or place across the up
per lid the point of pencil or bodkin,
and turn the lid back over it. In this
way the foreign particle is brought into
distinct view and can be readily wiped

Stealing Ideas.

1t must be surprising to the uninitiated
to see how soon fashions become general
lied in Paris. A creation, new fash
ion, is hardly out of an exclusive house
of the Rue de La hardly out Of the
workrooms, it might be said-when you
see it copied in the show windows of the
Louvre and the Bon Marche, where it
can be bought for less than one-fourt!,
Of the price asked by the great couturiers.
At first the rulers of dress thought that
some of their workpeople were bribed to
give points, but they soon discovered that
the offering of ideas took place in the
showrooms instead of the workrooms
The Louvre and the Bon Marche engaged
handsome, distinguished looking young
women, dressed them as if they had $780,
600 a year and were accustomed from
infancy to having and wearing the best,
gave them a private carriage and had
them go to the great costumers to order
garments ''just come out
These afterward served as the models
of things which the week after you
might buy by the dozens. The large
shops resort to this means to obtain nov
elites not only in the beginning of the
season, but all the year round, and the
couturiers have no way of avoiding the
sales, for their showrooms are open to
all who wish to purchase and give or.
ders. To be sure these couturiers make
most Of their creations for authentic
princesses and &duchesses, but here also
the shops get the best of them.-Cor

Blunder Worse Than Guilt.

There are some penalties on innocent
acts essential to human safety, and the
signaler whose failure has DESTROYED a
train must be punished, even though,
when he pleads that he was in ssdwam, .
he is to his own mind telling the simple
and sufficient truth. Nature is even
harder on blunder than on guilt, and
though man has no right to be as stern
as nature, which, for example, executed
adynamiter at Madrid-not for his in
tention to murder, but for his careless
ness in dropping his ebomb-still, there
are points upon which he must be nearly
as hard.-London Spectator.

The Boomerang Is Not New.

The boomerang, the Australian natives
weapon of offense and defense, referred
to in all reference works as an instru-
ment unknown until after the discovery
of Australia, was doubtless known be-
fore the time of Christ. Pliny the elder,
contemporary of our Saviour, writes
as follows in his Natural History re-
speeding an instrument made of the wood
Of the aquifolia:
IF staff made of this wood, when
thrown at an animal, from want of
strength in the person throwing, falls
short Of the mark, it will come back to-
ward the thrower Of its own accord. so
remarkable are the properties of that
tree" .*
It is altogether probable that the
learned Pliny did not consider the shape
of the ''staf' and referred it's peculiari-
ties to the nature of the wood of which
it was made.-St. Louis Republic.
