To meet the demands for Pe-ru-na as a
catarrh remedy during the fall and win
ter three carloads per day is required.
Few people comprehend what an i'm
mense amount of Pe-ru-na this is. It is
eighteen hundred dozen bottles of Pc
ru-na, each bottle containing twenty
ounces. This amounts to twenty-one
thousand six hundred bottles, or four
hundred and thirty-two thousand
ounces, or three million four hundred
and fifty-six thousand doses.
Three carloads of bottles of Pe-ru-na
placed end to end in single row would
extend over four and half miles; ar
ranged in column one foot square they
would make column nearly two thou
sand feet high, four times as high as the
highest cathedral tower in Europe, and
nearly twice as high as the famous Eiffel
tower. Remember, this amount of Pc
ru-na is shipped daily to meet the enor-
nous demand for this wonderful catarrh
remedy.
The facilities Of the Pe-ru-na Medicine
Company are taxed to their utmost to
keep up this remarkable output, week
after week, and month after month.
This ever-increasing stream Of Pe-ru-na
finds its way into thousands Of homes in
every state in the Union.

A New Militia Army.

Washington, April 1.--Representa-
tive Hay, of Virginia, one of the prom
inent members OF the Committee on
Military Affairs of the House, has pre-
pared with great care bill to create
out of the militia OF the several States
a reserve volunteer army for use In
time of war, to supplement the regular
army. The bill contemplates gener-
al broadening of the basis of the Nat
ional Guard, its equipment with the
service rife and its complete organiza-
tion in time of war into regiments,
brigades, divisions and corps, with
the characterization formation, as In
the regular army, and is designed to
obvIate the necessity of large stand
ing army upon the expiration OF the
present law, on July 1, 1901, increas-
ing the standing army to $4,000 and
authorizing the present volunteer
army of $4,000.
The bill will be introduced in the
house tomorrow, and receive addi-
tional Importance from the fact that
Mr.. Hay is Chairman of the Democrat
ic caucus. The bill makes all citizens
between the ages of Is and 45 years
liable to military service in the volun-
teer army. 1t approprlates $4,000,00O
annually in the maintenance and
equipment of the National Guard OF
the several States, this forming the
nucleus OF the volunteer army, and re-
quires the Secretary of War to keep In
each State supply of ordnance stores
sufficient for ninety days use of the
National Guard of the States in the
event of war.
