CAPITOL BUILDING, SALEM, OREGON.
A Letter from the Executive Office of Oregon.

The Governor of Oregon is an ar
dent admirer of Pe-runa. He keeps
it continually in the house. In re-
cent letter to DR.. Hartman he says:
State or Oregon,
Executive Department,
Salem, May 8, 1898.
The Pe-ru-na Medicine Co., Columbus.
Ohio:
Dear Sirs:-I have had occasion to
use your Pe-ru-na medicine in my
family for colds, and it proved to be
an excellent remedy. l have not had
occasion to use it for other ailments.
Yours very truly, W. M. Lord.
Any man who wishes perfect health
must be entirely free from catarrh.
Catarrh is well-nigh UNIVERSAL almost
onnipresent. Pe-runa is the only abb
solute safeguard known. A cold is
the beginning of catarrh. To prevent
colds, to cure colds, is to cheat ca

tarrh out of its victims. Pe-ru-na not
only cures catarrh, but prevents.
Every household should be supplied
with this great remedy for coughs,
colds and so forth.
1t will be noticed that the Governor
says he has not had occasion to use
Pe-ru-na for other ailments. The rea-
son for this is, most other ailments
begin with cold. Using Pe-ru-na to
promptly cure colds. he protects his
family against other ailments. This
is exactly what every other family in
the United States should do. Keep
Pe-ru-na in the house. Use it for
coughs, colds, la grippe, and other
climatic affections of winter, and there
will be no other ailments in the house.
Such families should provide them
selves with copy of DR.. Hartman's
free book, entitled Winter Catarrh."

One of the most peculiar accidents ever heard of happened to colored man near Red Deer, Va, few days ago. Ed Jones took his gun and SC, out for day of sport. He was not looking for large game, but he had not been in the woods long before he saw hn immense deer coming at tre- mendous rate of speed immediately to- ward him. He at once fell upon his knees, preparatory to shot, and when the deer was within twenty feet af him fired and missed his aim. The deer had acquired such tremendous mo- mentum that it could not check itself, and with the next leap landed upon the hunter It knocked him down and Bruised him badly upon the breast with one hind foot, the other going into the negro's mouth, knocking out a number of his teeth, tearing d part of his gums away, and passing dowE his throat The whole thing was over in an instant, but when the darkey came to the deer was gone.

France Has Substitute for the oritIab
 Cat O Nine Tails.

Cat O. Nine Tails
 Some of the French newspapers have been telling about the new method of whipping men which had just been introduced experimentally into some of the penitentiaries and colonies of France. The instrument bears the pleasing name of "the electric eat," and PElectrician expresses the scientific opinion that it is a great improvement 1pon the Russian knout and the cat o nine tails, which, it says, still unfor- tunate3y figures in many penal colo nies and in the penitentiaries of so- called civilized states. The method Of this new whipping machine is very simple and business-HHe. The culprit who has been sentenced to undergo the lash is tied to post in the usual man. ner. Behin6 him is a wheel driven by an electric motor, which goes round with velocity that is unpleasant for the victim. The velocity may be regu- lated, however, according to the sever- lty Of the trouncipg to be adminis- tered. Attached to one of the spokes is a whip which swings around the circle and the culprit is placed at such an angle With reference to the instru- ment of fagellation that every time it comes around it nips him squa-ely on the back. It is claimed for the new invention that it dispenses justice im- partially and equally. It has no ami mus against the prisoner, it's blows arc given with equal intensity, and it bet. ter fulflls the idea of even.handed justice than manual fogging, which is likely to distribute penalties very un- evenly T:Des.
