When He Could work best.

Bishop Brooks and John La Fargo,
the artist, We're warm personal friends,
although widely dssimilar in charac-
ter. The artist was fond of display;
the bishop cared nothing for Ii. but
preferred to pass unnoticed. On one
occasion Bishop Brooks and friend
were coming out of n church where the
artist was decorating a great window.
The friend walked toward a handsome
coupe that was standing in the rain
and said: Il suppose this is your car.
riage, bishop?'
Dear me. no." said the bishop. Il al.
ways walk. That's n livery carriage
waiting for La Fargo"
But La Fargo" said the friend has
been working in the church all day and
will continue to work until night"

steal smile drawing the corner of his
mouth, but La Fargo can never work

A LAWYERS READY ANSWER.
In Which He Rejected Credit Upon
HIS Client as Well a.
Himself.

An eminent lawyer, one of the most en-
inent in the United States, was in the midst
OF an argument before the supreme court III
defense of the patent rights OF his client to
a new-fangled collar button that was being
unlawfuily manufactured by the people Oh
the other side of the case. The distin-
gushed counsel was describing the patent
referred to, and its many advantages, says
the Kansas City Journal, when Judge
Shiras interrupted him, and, in a most seri-
Gus manner, observed:
Il should like to ask the learned counsel
If his client manufactures collar button
that won't roll under the bed
OF course the court was shocked. Some
young people in the seats reserved for spec
tators Uttered, and the marshal, rapplng on
his desk with his gavel, roared: Silence in
this honorable COURT" The eminent coun-
sci maintained his gravity, although his
soul must have been deeply stirred, and
mad presence of mind enough to turn the in
cdent to his own advantage, saying with
emphasis:
II have the honor to inform the court
that the collar button manufactured by
my client is unique in that as well as IN
other respects, but my client would not be
80 selfish as to patent so important bens-
fit TO mankind"

The Nickel Plate Road.

Dining Car service on American Railroads
has undergone number of changes in the
method of serving meals in dining cars. Many
leading roads are now serving from cards
a-la-carte, whilst on the other great trunk
lines the popular American plan OF en-.
joying anything on the bill of fare and
paying the usual price of one dollar. In
recent years the American Club meal has
come to the front, by which guests may
choose from a dozen or more bills of fare,
neatly arranged in booklet form, ranging in
price from IS cents to $l.00. This latter
plan is adopted by the Nickel Plate Road on
it's through express trains between Chicago,
New York City and Boston, except on the
dining cars of that line, choice may be
made from various club menus, or a Sc
lection may be made from them all, at
the price of the higher. In fact, it is claimed
for the Nickel Plate Road that its passenger
train service is equal to the best, and that
its combination dining car meals is an ex-
elusive advantage to patrons of the Nickel
Plate Road.

OFFICER WAS SATISFIED.

Gently given by the British associa-
tion he told, with much gusto, how he
once got the best OF an unduly in
quisitive customs officer. when first
went to Edinburgh" he said, 'the
professor to whom 1 was assistant
possessed a very rare specimen of an
electric fish. Though. in a general
way, like any other fish to all appear
ance, anyone who touched this speci-
men received an electric shock OF
such severity as to put an end TO any
further desire for close acquaintance
with it. a professor on the continent
who was greatly interested in electric
fishes expressed strong desire to see
this Edinburgh speciment, and at the
beginning of the autumn vacation L
was intrusted with the duty of con-
veying it, in specially constructed
box, across the channel for his inspec-
ton. On arriving on the other side
/ assured the customs officer that L
had nothing to declare, but unfortun-
ately for him, the appearance of this
box excited his suspicion. repeated
my assurances of bona fides and in
formed him that the box contained n
fish. AS he still appeared unsatisfied."
continued Sir William, speaking in
Enthusiastically meas ured tones. II
advised him, in-the--most-cou
Gus manner, that an investigation of
the contents of the box was mad, is
able. He, however, was somewhat
determined man and observed that he
had better see about it for himself.
Accordingly he opened the lid of the
box, inserted his hand, and. Well,

HOW A PRETTY SOCIETY GIRL
ESCAPED DREADED CONSUMPTION.
Peruna Used in Time Saved Her Life.
All'S Well That Ends Well.

1t is the same old story Of exposure to
cold. The cold passing down the bronchial
tubes to the lungs; the developing Of set
tied cold on the lungs, coughing, expectora-
ton. This is short road to consumption.
Thousands of people have travelled it. Thou
sands more will travel it and the coming
winter will develop an untold multitude OF
new cases.
In the case of Helen Murphy, the ending
was happy one. She started on the road
to consumption after catching cold at re-
ception. Instead Of waiting until she be-
came incurable, Peruna was resorted to and
her life was saved.
1t is pity that everyone else in this wide
land could not know OF this very effective
remedy in such cases. The news is spread
ing fast but great many people have not
yet heard that Peruna is sure cure in these
cases.
Peruna cures acute catarrh and chronic
catarrh; catarrh of the head and catarrh of
the lungs; catarrh of the throat and catarrh
of the stomach. Wherever eatarrh may
have located itself, whether in the digestive
organs, kidneys or pelvic organs, Peruna is
sure to eradicate the disease promptly.
Another case where consumption was
cheated of its prey occurred in the state of
Iowa. The report OF the case created con.
siderable attention at the time and was fur
nished us unsolicited by Mr.. Henrickson.
In letter to Dr. Hartman he sets forth
some interesting details of his rescue from
consumption. He made use of theiollowing
language: -
II have been for years constant sufferer
from chronic catarrh OF tie head and
throat, which finally worked down into the
air passages. In the spring of 9S | took a
severe cold and coughed all summer. l
thought l had consumption. Then had a
bad attack of la grippe. After taking .
course of Peruna ] feel cured Of all these
troubles.
"Wheneverany of our children get sick we
give them Peruna, and it never fails to cure
them. l most heartily testify to the value
of Peruna in cases of catarrh and la grippe.
j hope this may be the means of others suf-
fering as / did to take Peruna and be cured.
We would not be without it in the house. =
Henry IIenrickson.
Generally the first cold of the season is
caught in November. With some people
this lasts all winter and lays the foundation
of chronic catarrh. In the beginning few
doses of Peruna is sufficient to make per-
manent cure.
Send for DR.. Hartman's latest book on
| chronic catarrh. Address the Peruna Med
icine Co., Columbus, Ohio.
