DRESSED BIRDS ARE DEAD.
The Needed Lesson That Was Given q
Fault Finding Poultry

During: last Thanksgiving week poultry.

of fat, dressed turkeys to certain commits
sion merchant, who is an extremely "close
buyer" and never fails when he receives
consignment to claim an allowance for some
thing alleged to have spoiled on the way.
Heretofore, says the San Francisco Argo-
naut, he had dealt exclusively in live
fowls, and probably the correspondence
clerk got things mixed. At any rate the
shipper was astonished to receive letter by
return mail about as follows:
Dear Sir: We regret to advise you that
four of the turkeys in your consignment of
November reached here dead. Please make
deduction for same and return correct
amount. Yours truly
The poultryman communed with himself
and replied thus:
Dear Sir: | am sorry to say I find it i'm.

have established rule requiring all Gus
toners who desire live dressed turkeys to
notify us in advance, SO we can send them
in heated cars. Turkeys without feathers
and insides are liable to catch cold if shipped
in the ordinary manner. The mortality
among dressed turkeys was very large this
year. Yours mournfully."

speech gives way to splitting, the repulsive
odors of chronic catarrh poison the kiss of
the fondest lovers, and thickened mem
branes bedim sight, impair hearing and de-
stroy taste.
Like the plague-stricken Egyptians a cry
of distress has gone out from every house
hold, and the mildew of woe clings to every
hearthstone.
Catarrh in some form, catarrh in some
stage turks as an enemy in the slightest
cough or cold and finishes its iendish work
in heart disease and consumption.
No tissue, function, or organ of the body
escapes its ravages; muscles wither, nerves
shatter, and secretions dry up under its
blighting presence. So stubborn and diff
cult is this disease that to invent remedy
to cure chronic catarrh has been the ambi-
ton of the greatest minds in all ages.
Is it therefore any wonder that the vast
multitude of people who have been cured
of chronic catarrh by Peruna are SO lavish
in their praise of this remedy? That the
discovery of Peruna has made the cure of
catarrh practical certainty is not only the
testimony of the people, but many medical
men declare it to be true.
As drug store in this age of the world is
incomplete without Peruna, it can be OBJ
tanned anywhere with directions for use.

cure of catarrh and all diseases of winter,

How q Loyal Engineer Did His Broth
er Great Service.

err Great Service.
Meadville, Pa, Nov. 26. 19O0.-(Spe-
cial.)-The Loyalty of the Members of
gineers is proverbial. A circumstance
occurred in this city some days ago,
which emphasizes this feeling.
Frank ]. Zeller is Chief of tho
Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers
No. 143. He is extremely popular
among his fellow railway men. and
one of the best known Engineers run
ming out of Meadville. When the an
nouncement was made a short time
ago that Frank was pretty sick, it
caused great deal of regret among
the boys. Soon he was missed from
his engine, having had to 'lay off"
on account of his back. A brother OF
the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engi-
neers, who had been i'll with similar
symptoms, some time before, and who
had been pulled through, called to see
Mr.. Zeller, and in brotherly way,
took with him box of Dodd's Kidney
Pills, the Remedy which had cured
him. He advised Mr.. Zeller to try
them, with the result that after seven
boxes had beer used, he was entirely
well. and able to work.
In an interview Mr.. Zeller states:
81 had suffered for four years with
this affection. being often kept awake
at night with pains. and at times un-
able to work. I tried several of the
advertised remedies. and found that
they did me no earthly good. Finally,
a member of our Order, who had been
cured of Kidney Disease by Dodd's
Kidney Pills brought me box, and
asked me to try them. had little
faith in them, but as a drowning man
grasps at straw to help him, so
took the Pills. I used seven boxes.
and am to-day as well and strong a
man as there is in Pennsylvania"
Naturally, Mr.. Zeller feels very
grateful, and his complete recovery
has delighted his many friends, and
none more than the good Brother,
who feels that he was instrumental
in saving the life of the Chief.
Dodd's Kidney Pills never fail to
cure Kidney Trouble.
