Congressman Botkin IS one OF the most
Influential and best known men in the
State Of Kansas. Whatever he may
choose TO say on any subject Will be ac-
cepted by the people as the truth. So
famous a remedy as Pe-ru-na could not
have well escaped the attention Of so
famous q man. He not only has heard
OF the remedy. but knows a good deal
about it. Pe-ru-na is the one internal
remedy that cures chronic CaIarTh. IL
cures catarrh wherever located. This is
a fact that the people are rapidly finding
out, but there are still a large multitude
who need TO know it. il is especially
seasonable at this time OF the year 10
make a rapid cure Of catarrh. Pe-ru-na
cures catarrh in any season Of the year,
but amid the favorable climatic influences
OF spring its cures Of old cases are more
prompt and remarkable. Very old cases
Of chronic catarrh that have resisted all
other forms Of treatment have been per
manently cured by very short course Of
Pe-ru-na with the genial assistance of
bSlmy spring weather. In a recent letter

Why Celery In BIenched.

It is not for the mere sake of blanch-
Ing that celery is SO treated, for, if
this were the case, only self-blanching
varieties would be used; but it is to
improve the flavor and to make the
stalks tender. Care must be taken
to avoid heaping the earth so that it
gets in among the branches. Hold
the stems together with one hand,
while with the other the earth is
pressed against the plant, leaving out
merely a few leaves at the ends. AS
the tops grow, the earthing up must,
of course, be repeated. Celery is sub
ject to blight which attacks the CEN
ter of the plant. This may be encour-
aged by soil getting between the stalks,
as it has been found, where the plants
are boarded up instead of earthed,
they are less attacked. - American
Cultivator.
