Oldest Hotel in Europe.

The oldest hotel in Europe is the
Goldenes KreuZ Golden Cross at Re
gensburg (RatiSbon) in Bavaria. King
Ferdinand /. halted at it on his way
to his coronation in 1881, and no other
hotel in Europe possesses records of
such great antiquity as the Golden
Cross at Ratisbon does, or can boast
Of having had so many Royal visitors
as have enjoyed its hospitality. The
existing visitors books, which date
from 1919, contain the I'M of more
than five hundred imperial, royal and
princely ~personages. The room is
shown where, in 1865, the late Prince
Bismarck, at that time Prussian Pre-
mier, slept when he came with his
sovereign to hold the conference which
was the last attempt to prevent war
between Austria and Prussia. The ne
GOtiatiOns were held in the small half
of the hotel under the presidency Of
King William Of Prussia. The host
is equally proud of the autographs Of
Schiller and other men of letters, which
he possesses. The author of wilhelm
Tell wrote the words "UEd cine Hell
math iStleS' cit is indeed 4 hOme'),
in memory Of his stay there, and no
landlord could wish for a better ad.

BEDTIME
Sor1e ideas as to What Is tas Best
Retiring Hour.

SoE1e Ideas as to what Is "A Sesr
Retiring Hour.
A physician of courtly old-school
manners used to give prescriptions
marked respectively for early bedtime
and for late bedtime. A discussion
arose the other day As to what cOns'i-
tuted early and what late beCtime.
Some of the ladies maintained that 10
o'clock was the limit between the two,
others thought that early bedtime last
ed until II, and a few who believed in
beauty sleep pleaded that early bed
time began at S and ended at $50
o'clock.
SO many people are engaged all day,
and the dinner hour is necessarily, in
city life, deferred to SO late an hour,
the families do not break up from
their quiet evenings until after 10. So
ciety pushes it's hours later and later,
and the votaries OF fashion come near
having no bedtime at all, snatching
their rest when they a between one
gay rout and another. The invalid and
the aged person and the child must per-
force retire early. For those steady
going persons who regulate their lives
by rule, and who habitually rise at an
early hour and breakfast punctually at
Z O'Clock, 10 is certainly q good bedtime
hour. Brain workers would find their
account in seeking the repOSe of the
cough and the darkened and silent
chamber, with preferably Opaque u T.
tains to exclude the light of the room
and street lamp alike, at 10 o'clock.
A long sleep rests the mind as well
as the body, and prepares one for the
work of the next day, whatever it may
be. Far better than an opiate or a mar
cote is the habit of seeking the pillow
at an early hour, and quietly lying still,
with closed eyes and relaxed limbs,
until sleep, gently wooeA, comes with
it's healing touch and softly weaves it's
spells of balm.
The good doctor probably meant by
early bedtime any hour between s and
$50, and regarded the latter period as
between $50 and midnight.
Growing children cannot too careful
ly be enjoined to get plenty of sleep.
The boy or girl who has lessons to
learn must waken early after O good
nights rest, and this is insured only by
~punctuality in retiring. Eight o'clock
is a good bedtime for all young people
under 10 and should be insisted upon
by parents.-Harper's Bazaar.

Over Three Score Decorations.

The most decorated man in Europe
probably is Count August of Eulen-
berg, the marshal Of the German court,
who has siXty-three decorations. This
record was not even equaled by the
late Prince Bismarck, who had only
fifty-four decorations. Count Won
Moltke, another much-decorated man,
had forty-four. Among living men Gen
cral Won Hahnke comes after Count
August of Gutenberg, with a total of
fifty-two decorations. He is followed
by Prince Albrecht of Prussia, who has
fOrty-four.

Q YET.
All Because the Young Man Did Not
Appreciate the Situation.

1 rode up to a country store, where a
young girl stood on the porch swinging
q sunbonnet and talking to a mountain
eer. l had left her in that position a
year before, and her father had told
me then his daughter and the noun
taineer would soon be married. Talking
to the father q few minutes later, l
asked:
rs your daughter married yet?'
"NaW, an / don't reckon she will be-"
What is the trouble? l saw her talk
ing to her lover just now"
"Yaas-She don't do much else. Tibet
feliar amt no count. He's ben cOurtin'
for three var, an aXed Sal ter marry
in a var ago. l tOT him ter clean out,
an s'posed he'd 'lope with her. l tor

them from behind a tree.-WaShingtOn

Hon. Myron II. McCord, Ex-Governor
of New Mexico, in a letter to DIR. Hart
man, from Washington, d. c., says:
Gentlemen-At the suggestion Of q
friend | vas advised to use PeIu-Da for
catarrh, and after using one bottle / be-
gan to feel better in every way. 1T helped
me in many respects. | was troubled
with colds, coughs, sore throat, etc. but
as soon as l had taken your medicine l
began to improve and soon got well. L
take pleasure in recommending your great
remedy to all who are afflicted with ca
tarrh.-M. H. McCOrd.
Thousands of cases of chronic catarrh
have been cured by Pe-ru-na during the
past winter. In spite Of ChaDgeable
weather, in spite of the natural setbacks
from catching cold, and confinement to
lily ventilated rooms, the great catarrh
remedy-Pe-ru-na-has effected these
cures. But now spring is here. The days
are longer, the sun is warmer, and the
blizzard is zone for another year. This
presents a much more favorable OppOrtu-
nifty for the permanent cure of chronic ca
tarrh, especially old, stubborn cases. Now
is the time to begin treatment. Other
things being equal, one months treatment
in the spring is worth two months treat
ment during the Indictment weather OF
winter. Insist upon having Pe-ru-na.
There are no successful substitutes for
this remedy. Send to DR.. Hartman, Co
lumbus, Ohio, for a free catarrh book.

William McCreary. Esq. Immigration

August Ii, 1915.
William McCreary, Esq, immigration
Commissioner, Winnipeg, Man:
Strive, the undersigned delegates
from Kansas and Nebraska, L. S. A.,
in reporting the results of u trip tO
Dauphin, and subsequently to Regina,
Prince Albert and the middle Sas-
katcheWan country, beg to say that our
tickets were limited to tWenty-One
days, and as we had other large regions
to visit, we could only spend a short
time III the Dauphin country. We eX-
amined, however, the principal cult
waited areas in the southern parts of
township %, range 10, the great wheat
fields of Wishart, Buchanan, Owen,
Smith, Ross, Sinclair, the Whitmores,
DrinkWaterS, etc. and, subsequently,.
others to the north, and never in our
experience, have we seen finer grain.
The whole country is watered by nu-
merOuS streams flowing from the slopes
Of Riding Mountain, and excellent well
water is found everywhere, at from
nine to eighteen feet. Extensive for
estS of spruce and tamarack cover the
northern parts of the mountains, from
which timber is manufactured in Dau-
phin and elsewhere, and sold at from
So 4 thousand at the mills. Wild hops
and wild fruits are abundant, and ripen
in the open air. Vegetation through
out is surprisingly luXuriant and, with
out hesitation, we would rank the
whole region among the best grain
growing areas of the continent. The
output of wheat last year was about
10000 bushels, but this year it is esti-
mated at over a million.
Westward lie the homestead lands
which now, and when fresh surveys
are completed, will afford comfortable
homes to thousands of diligent fam
lilies. The great Gilbert Plains also
we were unable to visit, where grain
growing has been conducted with the
best results for years, and which will
become a vast wheat field as soon as .
branch railway reaches there.
Settlement is speeding in all these
regions, reminding us indeed Of the
early days in our own States; and as
we have examined, since our visit to
Dauphin, a portion of the great coun-
try lying south and east of Prince Al
bert we can readily imagine the tide
of immigration which will soon flow
into the Canadian West.

There is more Catarrh in this section of the
country than all other diseases put together. and
until the last few years was supposed to be in
durable. For a great many years doctors pro-
nOunced it a local disease, and prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with
lOcaltreatment, pr~OnOuncedit incurable. Science
has proven catarrh to be q constitutional dis
ease, and therefore requires constitutional treat
ment. Halls Catarrh Cure. manufactured by
+. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only con-
StitutiOnal cure on the market. 1t is taken in
ternally in doses from ten drops to a teaspoon
full. 1t acts directly on the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system. They offer one hundred
dollars for any case it fails to cure. Send for

Fish with an Elastic Stomach.

The good old rule that a receptacle
must be larger than its contents finds
apparent refutation in the ease of the
chiasmOdon, a fish popularity known as
''the black swallOWer." 1t is noted
for its ~voracity and for the enormous
distcnsibility of it's stomach, which
permits it to swallow fishes larger than
itself.

CHURCHES AND scHooLHousEs

The interior walls OF churches, school
houses and all public halls should never be
coated with anything but the durable and
pure Alabastine. So evident has this fact
become, that hundreds Of tons are used an
nually for this work. The genuine Alabas-
tine does not rub or scale off. 1t is cleaniy
during the long period of it's usefulness. Ev
cry owner of 4 building should use it. Ask
your paint dealer or druggist for card of
tints. and write for free copy Of our paper,
Alabastine Era, to Alabastine Co., Grand
Rapids, Mich.

WHAT ARE.

Kalsomines are cheap and temporary prep
arations, manufactured from whiting,
chalks, clays, etc. They are stuck on the
walls with decaying animal glue. Alabas-
tine is not a kalsomine. 1t is a rock-base
cement, which sets, and it hardens with age.
1t can be re-coaIed and re-decorated without
having to wash and scrape of it's old coats.
Beware of Il large fOur-pound package of
light kalsomine, sold to dealers for four
pounds and offered TO customers as a FIVE
pound package.

WHAT is.

Alabastine is the original and only durable
wall coating on the market. 1t is entirely
G-EJcca- f:c!l al kaIsOmine preparations.
Alabastine is mad ready for use in white or
twelve beautiful tints by the addition of
cold water. 1t is put up in dry powdered
form, ia f~ve-pound packages, with full di-
rections on every package. 1t takes the
place of scaling kalsomines, wall paper and
paint for walls. Alabastine can be used on
plaster, brick, wood or canvas and a child
can brush it on.

REJECT TIE "JUsT AS GOOD"

The dealer who tells you that he can sell
you the same thing as Alabastine or
something just as good either is not post
cd or is trying to deceive you. In Offering
something he has bought cheap and is trying
to sell on Alabastine's demands, he may not
realize the danger TO himself as well as to
you. Beware Of all new substitutes. Deal
ers risk a suit for damages by selling and
consumers by using an infringement. Ala

wall coetings adapted to mix with coIS

THE MARKET ELSEWHERE.

New York, Sept. 12.-Values of securi-
ties suffered today from further liquida-
ton Of speculative accounts induced by
the contraction of loans by the banks
for the purpose of replenishing their de-
pleted reserves. Some sentimental effect
was produced by the sudden death Of
Cornelius Vanderbilt. But this event
though sudden was not wholly unex-

the name is most closely associated
gave evidence of support. Late in the
day after loans had either been read
justed or paid off, there We're some no
