throughout the country. Matches be-
tween the teams of different posts are al
so to be arranged.
Athletic teams as a rule, are made up
of men who take a natural interest in
field sports and who join an athletic club
of their own accord. They do things diff
ferently in the army, however; nothing is
left to the option of the individual But
unlike some military orders, irksome sim
ply from the fact that they are orders,
the command to form athletic teams has
been hailed by the men with delight; and
now, between and after drill hours, the
parade ground of post or fort is turned
Into an athletic ground, and men who
otherwise might be in the guard house
for some trivial infraction of military
discipline may be seen in regulation
track costume running, vaulting, jump
ing and indulging in almost every variety
of athletic exercise.
That the introduction of athletic train
Ing into the army is a good thing for the
men. both physically and morally, is con-
cedea by all While the greater part of
the United States army was busily en-
gagged in chasing bands of hostile Indians
all over the western portion of the coun-
try, the need of4field athletics was not
particularly felt; the men had exercise
enough and to spare in endeavoring to
keep within striking distance of their
active foes. But when the savages were
safely disposed of on the different re-
servatioDs and the monotony of garrison
life began, the once hardy soldiers lost
their activity, and what, in their fighting
days, was but short jaunt, became,
through the eneryating influence of gar
rison life, a hard days work.
1t was while sta toned in the west
among these men that General Miles,
himself an old Indian campaigner, began
to see the need of thorough athletic
training for the soldier Other nations
Ire qtrJS n
their soldiers as well as to drill them in
tactics; why should not the United States
do the same, he reasoned; and from that
time until now General Miles has been
an enthusiast upon the subject of field
athletics. To be sure, the troops were
often taken on practice marches across
country, or allowed to play an occasional
game of foot ball with some civilian
team or a team from some neighboring
army post; but there was no system, and
the exercise was transitory in it's effect.
Thus far the official introduction into
the army of field sports is in its infancy,
but the doubtful stage Is passed, and
army athletics are with the soldiers TO
stay. t.se
A report has just been made to the
war department by Colonel Shafer at
present commanding the department OF
California, of a series of competitive attn
letc games held by the soldiers of the
department, in which hand ball, tug-of-
war, standing high jump, running, put
ting the hammer and shot, hurdle races
and base ball were the principal games
INDUCED in, and some very good records
were made.
Not only are the men instructed in or
binary field sports, but they have some
novel sports of their own A favorite
one is a swimming match in the light

yard race or a 440-yard race, the con-

THE FIRST FROST
Cures Hay Fever, But Aggravates Ca
t.. tarrh

Cures Hay Fever, But Aggravates Ca
~ .G t- tarrh.
With the first frost may return an old
catarrh that has been imperfectly cured.
Suppose T.. the proper treatment for ca
tarrh was commenced towards spring;
say .catarrh of the head stomach, lungs,
bladder or other organs. By the time
hot weather sets in the disease may seem
to be nearly cured. The relaxing effect
of the heat of summer, the absence of
colds, ETC., assist in making the patient
think that his catarrh Is cured perma-
nently. Then, instead of continuing the
Pe-ru-na until the affected mucous mem
branes are entirely cured, the medicine
is left off too soon and the catarrh may
return with the first frost which ushers
in cold weather. s
When this is the case the treatment,
which consists of the internal use of Pc
ru-na, should be renewed at once. Much
time and expense will be saved, as cure
In the beginning can be expected often
with a single bottle. But postponing
the treatment until mid-winter a much
longer time will be required to affect a
cure Catarrh is Inflammation of mu-
cous surface, and wherever located the
infiammatory action Is of chronic or
sub-acute character, producing little or
patient to think that the disease is only
trivial disturbance, and thus neglect
1t until 1t becomes formidable. Much
and long suffering follows this very COM
mon mistake. Treatment with Pe-ru-na
should therefore be commenced as early
as possible; preferably with the first
frost, or first symptom of it's return. Pc
ru-na so far as the writer has been able
to discover, is the only reliable cure for
this disease, 1t is equally effective in
plant, The number of persons entirely
free from catarrh must be very small in
deed.
Mrs. "A. Otto, Dowagiac, Mich, writes;
II am glad to say that have made the
acquaintance of your wonderful remedies,
Pe-ru-na and Man-a-lin. They have
done me so much good that when l see
the name on the wrapper 1t looks more
like the name of some dear friend than
anything else. ter-er
II was in a terrible state of nervous
ness with catarrhal affections Five
bottles of Pe-ru-na and one of Man-a-lin
did me more good than whole year S
treatment with different physicians OF
this place. 1t does not cost small for-
tune to get cured with Pe-ru-na as II
does with doctors. Z Perhaps in the end,
when one let's his family physician treat
him for catarrh, he is worse off than be-
foreshe took the first dose, leaving him
more discouraged and almost in despair
of being cured. Take Pe-ru-na."

TRAINING DOWN THE ARMY.

Uncle Sans Soldiers Getting Too Fat
Must Take to Sports.
San Francisco Chronicle.
Uncle Sam has concluded that pro-
longated peace is making his soldiers al
together too fat. Hereafter they must be
trained down, and among other things
they must learn to run. 1t Is not meant
to insinuate that running is hereafter to
be the favorite mode of warfare of our
forces, unless In pursuit of fleeing eme-
my; but it is essential for a soldier to be
active and 1.-THE limbed. 1t Is not suffi-
cient that he is well versed in the manual
of arms and can go through the bayonet
exercises without danger to his comrades;
his calling is one which requires an ath-
letic physique, and the army authorities
propose to see that he gets it.
IAN athletic team will Immediately be
formed at every post in the department of
Colorado, in accordance with specified
rules, to be commanded by a commission
ed officer, selected by the post COM
mander."
So reads the order issued by Gen.
Wheaton, U. S. A, commanding the de-
partment in question. The order has
been approved by the war department and
by Mai. -Gen. Miles, commander-in-chief
of the army of the United States, and, in
consequence, field athletics are to become
lust as much a recognized part of the
soldiers training as drill or target prac-
tice
For a long time past Gen Miles has
been urging upon the department at
Washington the Importance of giving the
rank and file of the army athletic instruc-
tion. and now that the department has at
length approved of the suggestion. the
different commanders are promptly act
ing upon it, and athletic teams are being
formed at every fort and army post

THE METHOD OF A GREAT TREATMENT
Which Cured Him After Everything Else
Failed.

Painful diseases are bad enough, but
when man is slowly wasting away with
nervous weakness the mental forebod-
ings are ten times worse than the most
severe pain There is no let-up to the
mental suffering day or night. sleep is
almost impossible and under such
strain men are scarcely responsible for
what they do. For years the writer
rolled and tossed on the troubled sea or
sexual weakness, until it was question
whether he had not better take dose OF
poison and thus end all his troubles. But
providential inspiration came to his ala
in the shape of a combination OF medl-
cines that not only completely restored
the general health but enlarged his
weak, emaciated parts to natural size
and vigor, and he now declares that any
man who will take the trouble to seno
his name and address may have the
method Of this wonderful treatment free.
Now, when l say free, mean absolutely
without cost, because l want every weak
ened man to get the benerit of my expe-
rience.

as an enthusiast, but there are thousands
