No man is better known in the State
of Nebraska than Mr.. Carl 7. Roberts,
contractor and mason. A typical
American-actiye, shrewd, and full oil
business sagacity. He is not only a
provider for his family, but a protec-
tor. In recent letter to DR.. Hartman
he writes, among other things, as fol-
lows:
"Our boy, James, had the membra-
nous Group, and repeated attacks of lung
fever. Our boy, Charlie, was also SUBJ
ject to attacks of pneumonia and pleu-
risy. Our third boy, John, was subject
to fever and ague (malarial) and liver
trouble. Your remedy, Peruna, cured
my boys entirely, and now | have three
of the healthiest boys in the State of
Nebraska, which | attribute to your
medicine. My wife had stomach
trouble which Peruna also cured. AL
together for my whole family we have
used nineteen bottles OF Peruna, and
have thus saved $500 in doctors bills.

Charlottc Dronte Not FInttered.

An interesting anecdote of Charlotte
Bronte is recalled by Mrs. Humphry
Ward in her biographical Introduction
to "Vilette." In 1851 the authoress,
having refused repeated invitations to
London. on the ground that having
done no work she deserved no treat,
finally consented to pay short visit
to the family of her friend and pub
Usher, Mr.. George Smith.
Thackeray was at this time at the
height of his popularity in London, and
Miss Bronte arrived In time to hear
his second lecture on the English hui
morlsts.
When 1t was over. Thackeray, who
had recognized the timid little woman
sitting by Mrs. Smith. came down
from the platform. and, shaking hands
with Miss Bronte, asked her how she
liked 1t. There are few persons who
would not have been flattered by such
an attention, but Miss Bronte, on the
contrary. was almost offended by 1t,
and when she introduces similar In
cident in "Vilette" she comments on
the restlessness and the lack Of de-
sirable soif control on the part Of the
lecturer.

limit of stay In the homes, and the
Army has a shrewd scheme for making
the lodger less loath to leave. For the
first month he gets full pay, the follow
