CATARRH VICTIMS.
An Extract From a Recent Lecture
by DIR. Hartman, of the Surgical
Hotel, Column bus. Ohio.

Hotel, Columbus, Ohio.
Everybody has catarrh. If not every
body, at least nearly everybody. Some
have catarrh in the form Of discharge
from the nose, or hawking from the
throat. Some have 1t in the head.
producing frontal headache, or crack
ling in the ears, or partial deafness.
With some it is confined to the throat.
or bronchial tubes, producing hoarse-
ness or sore throat, cough, or pain in
the chest Some have it in the form
Of catarrhal consumption. Others have
catarrhal dyspepsia, catarrh of the
liver, catarrh of the kidneys, catarrh
of the pelvic organs, producing a host
Of diseases generally known as fe-
male diseases. Many of these people
do not suspect that they have catarrh.
Their ailnent has been called some
thing else. The reason they have
failed to find cure Is that they do
not suspect the real nature of their
disease. If they knew. they had ca
tarrhe they would take Pe-ru-na, as Pc
ru-na has come to be recognized ev--
erywhere as the standard internal, rem
edy for catarrh. Thousands know it
by happy experience. still greater
multitude will find it out during the
coming winter as the efficacy Of Pc
ru-na is rapidly becoming known to
the whole people.
Mr.. Frank e. Ingalls, Waco Texas
writes as follows:
'Pe-ru-na and Man-a-lin have cured
me of one of the worst cases Of ca
tarrh any one ever had. l heard that
Pe-ru-na would cure catarrh, and. on.

Paper Matches.

Paper matches are the latest. The
time-honored scheme of rolling up a
piece of paper and using it for a
lighter has been utilized by an in
ventor in the manufacture of
matches and promises to revolution
lie European match making. 1t is
particularly timely, because the
wood for this purpose is constantly
growing more scarce and costly. The
new matches are cheaper than those
made of wood and weigh much less,
quite an item in expectation. The
paper used is strong and porous, and
when immersed in a solution of wax,
steerine and similar substances,
burns with bright, smokeless and
odorless flame Strips of half an
inch in width are first drawn
through combustible bath and are
then turned by machinery into long,
thin tubes. They are then cut to
match length and the heads dipped
into PHOSPHORUS wax and dried

POR THE LETTER WRITER.
What Is Popular in The Way of Writ
ing Paper.


One of the novelties for letter
writers is pen extractor made of
silver, says the New York Adver-
tiser. It is very small, but strong,
and is exceedingly useful.
Striking novelties in writing paper
are plaided, blockedand brocaded in
elaborate fashion. Pale tints are
also fashionable, blue, gray, violet,
pink and cream. Pale gray lettered
with black or silver is used for sec
ond mourning. Monograms are
smaller and are inclosed in q ring
not larger than ten-cent piece, and
are frequently backed with blue or
green enamel, Long narrow envel-
opes are taking the place of the
square ones for weddings and other
invitations. +
The latest wax for sealing letters
Is red of a beautiful dark ruby tint.
Dark green, mauve and violet are
beautiful. Yellow is seen, but is not
much liked, as it is so loud. The
daintiest of all is pale green wax,
which looks lovely on white paper.
Cheap wax is poor investment, as
it catches fire in melting, and
hardens too quickly. In sealing
letters care should be taken not to
hold the wax too close to the fame.
If catches fire ever 80 little a black
ened deposit is left which spoils the
seal.
To seal a letter properly, one
should have an alcohol lamp or wax

A TALL CABBAGE.
Il Is Twelve feet Four inches High
and Product Of California.


The tallest cabbage in California
was grown from seed sown by Samuel
Wakeman, Of Berkeley, Cal The
stock OF this plant, on exhibition at
Mr. Wakeman's store, is II feet
inches high, says the Berkeley (Cal.)
correspondent of the San Francisco
Examiner.
In 1886 Mr.. Wakeman brought a
small quantity of kale seed from the
Isle OF Jersey. He kept some OF the
seed, and gave some to the agricul-
tural department of the state uni
versity. The remainder was dis
tributed among eastern friends,
many of whom have made inquiry as
to where more of it can be procured.
In the university grounds and in
Mr.. Wakeman's garden are growing
several stocks Of the plant fneasur-
ing eight and nine feet in height,
but the specimen now on exhibition
in the Berkeley store is the record
breaker-@ It's wonderful growth was
attained in nine mon tbs.
The sprouts of the hale are edible,
and taste much like those of the cab
bage However, in its native habi-
tat, the Isle of Jersey, its leaves are
used to feed the diminutive cows
that have aided to render the name
of Jersey farmyard word all over
the world. The California expert
menter finds that the succulent green
leaves are much relished by chickens,
and point in favor of the plant is
that it produces green leaves the
year around.
The stock of the Berkeley mon
strosity is as large as mans waist
at the root, and tapers gradually to
the seed branches, ten feet from the
ground. To this height the stem
has been stripped of its leaves, rem
dering its resemblance to hickory
sapling very remarkable. The top
is surmounted by feathery lunches
of small yellow flowers.
The fiber Of the plant is hard and
lasting, and can be. converted into
excellent canes. Mr. Wakeman has a
walking cane of this description,
vanished and mounted with a gold
head. He brought the cane from
England. srtNesl VI

AN OLD WOMAN.
Claims to Be One Hundred and
Twenty-One Years Of Age.

TwentY-One Years Of Age.
Lying at the point Of death in a
little weather-beaten cottage, pic
turesquely situated on a hillside be
tween Chicopee Falls and Holyoke,
is Mrs. Margaret Bowen, who, at the
age of 121, can claim the distinction
of being one Of the oldest--if not the
oldest--women in the world, says
the Boston Journal Until recently
she was in possession of all her
mental faculties, but physically un-
able to care for herself Within a
week she failed rapidly. She is al
most blind, and but little of her rea-
son remains. Her face is saffron
hued and wrinkled.
Her husband, Bartholomew Bowen,
76 years old, cares for her as tender
ly, as affectionately, as be did when
he chose her as his life partner.
Mrs. Bowen's maiden name was
Margaret Sweeney, and she was
born in the parish of EveIane, Cork
county, Ireland.
She does not recall the exact year
Of her birth, but places it according
to the Irish custom, by the year of
the great blow" or blizzard. She
was for years nurse in the parish
and known throughout the county.
Her marriage to Mr.. Bowen was
not a case of love at first sight, but
it was an affection that gained in
years that followed. .....
Mr.. Bowen's first wife left him
with two children at her death. He
wanted some one to love and care
for them, and, having long had a
warm friendship for Miss Sweeney,
they were finally married, Miss
Sweeney at the time being 9S years
old.
They lived in Ireland until they
thought they could better their cir
cumstances by coming to America.
They arrived in this country on the
night of President Lincoln's sssassi-
nation and came to Chicopee Falls,
where they have lived ever since.
They occupy humble cottage on
the Holyoke road, and Bowen pro-
vides support for himself and wife
by tilling the soil. 20,
The cottage is neat and fairly com
Portable, but is not large enough to
contain all the household effects, so
Mr. Bowen made an excavation near
by to hold the wood, coal and other
necessities, covering the pit over
with boughs and brush.
Mrs. Bowen is one of family of
nine children, none Of whom lived to
be 100 years old, but all reachd the
age of 20. She has never employed
a physician, and has hardly been i'll
day. ..--s... s.#"+@#
She attributes her longevity to
careful habits OF living. She has
never eaten between meals, never
drank anything at meals, and never
tasted liquor in any form.
Friends of the family ascertained
Mrs. Bowen's remarkable age by
writing to the priest of the parish,
who vouches for it that she was 88
years old at the time of her mar
riage, nearly "a years ago.
Mrs. Bowen speaks very little
English, conversing with her hus
band and friends in the native Irish
tongue.
The history of her life was gained
from her husband and from friends
who had often heard her repeat it.
