The progressive farmer. [volume] (Winston, N.C.) 1886-1904, 1900-12-04

The Quakers have always been Oh .
acterfzed by their Unt1E1ng care in
relieving the suffering Of their own
poor, and are h~ospttable, sweet-spirited
and gentle people. They universally
wear plain, u~nobtrusfve clothing, not so
much for uniformity, as to escape the
ever-changing fashions indress.
Their honesty and veracity is well
known. Hence this letter will be read
with interest by all classes.
Could any words be mo to the point
could any evidence be more convincing,
than the above persuasive, direct, sim
cere letter? Systemic catarrh is a con
dition in which chronic catarrh has per-
vaded the whole system. CatarrL first
begins by l~ocalizing itself In some one
or more organs Of the body, but very
o o it shows q tendency to spread to
other organs. If it is not checked, the
whole system becomes invaded by this
insidious disease.
When catarrh has reached this stage,
of course it has gone beyond the reach
of all local remedies.
Nothing but q systemic remedy can
reach it.
Peruna is the only remedy yet
to meet such cases.
Peruna eradicates catarrh from the
system.
It does its work quietly, but surely.
1t ~cleanses the mucous membranes of
the whole body.
1t produces regular functions.
Peruna restores perfect health in q
natural way.

The privacy of the family life
oughtto be protected in every possible
way. We can think of nothing more
coarse and vulgar than the habit
which some people have Of tearing
down the walls, and bidding the
general public see all that goes on in
their homes. Especially do we rep
rebate the folly of Publishing family
disputes and difficulties. The hus-
band who opens his lips to mention
To others the supposed shortcomings
Of his wife, and the wife who makes
apractice of parading the defects OF
her husband, r both alike worthy
OF Unmixed contempt. If there be
differences and disagreements-and
there ought to be none of a serious
nature-the proper thing to do is to
conceal them from the curious gaze.
Any other policy brings inevitable
Strife and alienation, and probable
disgrace and shame.-Nashville

HIS GREAT WORK.

A Chicago man, who has written
book, was telling about it the other day
to a friend who had once done him
service.
"By the way" said the author, IT
would be delighted to give you a copy
of my work, If you care for it,"
81 should be more than pleased to
have it," was the reply, especially II
you will write your name in it,"
All right. There's a book store just
around the corner. If you will accom-
pany me we will go there and get il. I
don't happen to have a copy in my
office just now"
After they had stopped to glance at
some of the new things in the book
store the author hailed a clerk, and,
pushing his chest out very far, asked
for the novel that he had written.
Yes, SIR" the clerk said. 1--WE have
it around here somewhere, l believe,
but you are the first one who has ever
asked for a copy, and it may take me
some time to find 1t. Wouldn't some-
thing else do just as we'll? We have
great many better books at the same
price. Chicago Times Herald.

Honolulu, H. l., March l. 1900
DR.. C. b. Wood, President Board OF
Health, City
Dear Sir: 1 desire to make the fol-
lowing report, namely:
l was called by telephone this morn
ing to go out to All Sans, on the Wal
me. Not finding the doctor, 1 after
ward met DIR. Cooper and asked him to
accompany me. When we reached the
house DIR. Peterson of the Board of
Health, and the guards were already
there. The suspect case, Yong Look,
is reported to be about so years of age,
and was discharged from Kalihi camp
with his family, consisting of wife and
| four children and cousin, Yong Far
Sue. They left Kahili o'clock Friday
afternoon, and Yong Far Sue left the
family in the woods by Camp Jones,
he going to the Vineyard street camp
for accommodations, but could not get
any there, and returned to the family
at about 6 o'clock. Both he and the
oldest child assert positively that they
stayed in the trees near Camp Jones
all Friday night and did not visit any
house.
On Saturday morning they started
for Honolulu, bought some cakes and
soda water at the corner of King street
and Kalihi road, and then came on to
All Sans place at Waikiki, reaching
there just before II o'clock, Saturday
morning, where they have remained
since that time.
All Sam has worked for us for some
five years past and we regard him as
perfectly reliable in any statement he
would make. I deemed it proper that
this report should reach you at once.
Respectfully,
