Sergeant Buck Taylor, one of the famous Rough Riders, is a personal friend of Governor Roosevelt of New York. He accompanied Governor Roose- welt on his great stumping tour through upper New York state. He was promoted through gallantry in the field during the late war.
 The Sergeant has the following to say of Pe-ru-na: "I think there is no better medicine'on earth than Pe-ru-na, for catarrh. It has cured me. It would take volume to tell you all the good it has done me. Pe-ru-na is the best catarrh cure on earth, and I know, for I have tried nearly all of them. Respectfully,
 "Buck F. Taylor"
 Winter weather causes catarrh. Ev- erybody knows this. But everybody does not stop to think that winter weather delays the cure of catarrh. Ii takes longer to cure a case of catarrh in the winter generally. than in the warm season. Spring is here. Now is the time fayora ble to the treatment of old and especially stubborn cases of catarrh.

 Manila, March 20, $40 D. mt is reported on hitherto reliable authority that Aguinaldo is taking extreme meas ares to suppress signs calculated to sause a cessation of hostilities. Twelve Adherents of the plan of independence, residents of Manila, have been con asmned to death because they wrote advising surrender, and all loyal Fili- piRos have been called upon to per form the national service of dispatch ing them.
 Gen. Lngarda DeenpitaJed.
 On Friday last Gen. Lagarda visited Ralolos for the purpose of advising Aguinaldo to quit. He argued with the insurgent leader, and attempted to convince him of the folly of his per xistence in the face Of overwhelming odds. Aguinaldo was furious at the advice, and ordered Gen. Lagarda to Se executed Immediately. The unfor- innate general was promptly decapi- lated.

 Among the incidents of Sundays Fighting was the coolness exhibited ag A company of Washington volun- feers, who crossed the river in a ma tlTe canoe under heavy fire-15 be- ing taken across on each trip of the Emali boat-to attack the enemy's trenches.
 The inability of the commissary rain to keep up with the advance led to considerable suffering, and many of the men were completely exhausted when the were recalled, and falling from the ranks, were strung along for distance of almost six miles, numbers returning to camp in the ar siilery ambulancqs, which were al- ways close up to the lines. The work of the ambulances was especially worthy of mention.

Sold by drug gists in fifty-eent and ene-doIlar sizes. You may have q sample bottle of this wonderful discovery and a book that tells more about it, both sent absolutely free by mail.
