less. Cured by
Pe.ru.na.

Mrs. Judge McAllister writes f..sn
IZII West 33rd ST., Minneapolis, MINI,
as follows:
- suffered for years with a pain in
the small of my back and right side.
IL interfered often with my domestic
ana social duties and | never supposed
that l would be cured, as the doctors
meqlclne did not seem to help me any.
fortunately a member of our Or
ger advised me to try Peruna and gave
II such high praise that l decided to
try it. Although l started in with lit
Tie faith, l felt so much better in a
week that I felt encouraged.
Il took it faithfully for seven weeks
and am happy indeed to be able to say
that 1 am entirely cured. Words fail
to express my gratitude. Perfect
health once more is the best thing l
could wish for, and thanks to Peruna
lister.
The great popularity of Peruna as a
catarrh remedy has tempted many
people TO initiate Peruna. A great
many so-called catarrh remedies and
catarrhal tones are to be found in
many drug stores. These remedies
can be procured by the druggist much
cheaper than Peruna. Peruna can
only be obtained at a uniform price,
and no druggist can get it a cent
cheaper.
Thus it is that druggists are tempt
ed TO substitute the cheap limitations
OF Peruna for Peruna. 1t is done ev-
cry day without a doubt.
The Grenada sentinel. [volume] (Grenada, Miss.) 1868-1955, 1901-07-27

We would therefore caution all peo-
pie against accepting these substi-
tutes. Insist upon having Peruna.
There is no other internal remedy for
catarrh that will take the place of
Peruna. Allow no one to persuade
you to the contrary.
If you do not derive prompt and sat-
isfactory results from the use of Pc
runa, write at once to DR.. Hartman,
giving a full statement of your case
and he will be pleased to give you his
valuable advice gratis.

A Matrimonial Question.

Should man make a home before
he asks a woman to marry him, or
should he marry first and let the home
making following the wedding? This
Is rather a nice social question and 1t
is entertainingly discussed In J. z.
Mowbray's article, "The Making of a
Country Home" in Everybody's Maya

Discussing the limitations and the
helplessness of life in a fiat under con-
ditions that seem to prescribe a rise,
John Denison says to his wife:
"A man ought to reach his goal be-
fore he takes a wife, for the more he
loves her the more of a handicap she is.

But you understand that he will not

Then she laughed one of her copious
mellow laughs. II think you have got
that wrong, John, upon my word | do
Homes do not produce wives or lead
up to them. It's just the other way
1t seems to me. The wives produce
the homes. Young men, as under
stand 1t, think just about as much OF
making a home before they get wife
as they think about making a flying
trip to the moon. Why, 1t would be
just too ridiculous, John, to see q
young man building home and fur
nishng 1t, and then expecting n wife
and baby to drop in because it's ready
as the wrens do. You know yourself
you never would have had home like
this If you hadn't got married. How

Training Boys In Germany.

training schools in Germany are es-
pecially intended for the class of boys
who idle away their time before and
after school on the street
Theregular session closes at half past
two O'Clock in the afternoon, and after
this time the boys who. either through
poverty or the Indifference of parents,
are not properly and BEAUTIFULLY en-
ployed must attend the industrial
school for the rest of the day.
In the summertime the boys, divid-
ed into classes, each under the super
vision of a teacher, are trained system
atically In all the branches of garden
ing. AT other seasons of the year the
boys are engaged ut various light
crafts in workrooms. such MS making
OF baskets. brushes and brooms, and
| plain carpentry, where the use of tools
is taught. Typesetting and bool15ind
ing are taught to the advanced and
older classes.
| Each boy receives a small remuner
alton for his work when it is faithfully
and obediently performed. The money
| however, is not paid to him directly
but Is put into a sayings-bank for him
| and from time to time he receives his

When the amateur golf championship
was played at Wheaton In 1897 there
was but one Chicago newspaper man
who had the remotest conception of
what the game was. Accordingly, the
newspapers, with the exception Of the
Chicago Tribune, agreed to syndicate
the work and put 1t all In this one
mans hands The Tribune refused to
enter the combination and depended
upon the exertlons of member of Its
own STAFF. But the Tribune reporter
speedily realized his helplessness and
appealed to his brother of the syndicate
for aid. The latter obllglngly handed
over his copy. and the Tribune man set
TO work to make few minor changes
so that its klnship to the original should
not be too apparent. Later In the
evening he met his generous bene-
factor and told him of the changes he
had made.
I'm particular, the account of the
play at the sixth hole between Forgan
and Douglas. You said that 'Forgan
trimmed the cup for hail. Well, you
know, old chap. that Forgan Is a bank
er down town and big man, while
Douglas Is Just one of those Scotch
men. 1t seemed to me rather cheap to

| with Rolla what they would do when
father came to his senses" But Jim
Shotwell was not TO be deceived, and
one bright afternoon some mysterious
shots were heard up at the bend In the
road, and rumor says that .44-caliber
bullets buried themselves in the red
clay close to where Rolla White stood
waiting for the coming of his sweet
heart
But the Spanish war came on and
Rolla White volunteered. He was
made a sergeant, promoted for soldierly
conduct He came home with his regi-
ment, was mustered out and brought
to Corbin with him wound received
in action, which caused the girl to add
compassion to the love which she al
ready bore him. He renewed his atten-
tons under the same protest from jim
Shotwell
The other day the boy passed close
by the spot where Jim Shotwell was
sitting, his chair tilted back against the
wall of the drug store. A quarrel fol-
lowed. How 1t began no one knows.
A passer-by heard the contemptuous
words, "You don't stand for nothin' in
this community. and you can stay
away. You understand
With flushed face and uncomfortable
anger expressed In the flashing of his
eyes, the boy flung back the answer,
'If you don't like me, you old scoun-
drel, you had better come and get me
now and stop me for good"
Jim Shotwell started to rise from his
chair, but only started. Like a fash,
Rolla White had drawn his weapon and
Shotwell fell, wounded in four places
He was carried to his son Johns resi-
dence across the street, to die the next
morning. Rolla White took refuge In
his brothers store.
The shooting occurred at noon. At @
o'clock 1t was dark and the Shotwells
had gathered their clans. Old man Bill
Shotwell, brother of Jim Shotwell, and
his two sons, Dee and Parrish, the
McHargues and other friends, had col
lected. Then the riot began. Who par
ticipated In 1t the courts will have to
determine. The White store and res
taurant was blown up. Windows and
doors were wrecked and the men In
side dashed to the ceiling. Well know
ing what was attempted and what
would follow, the White boys barri-
caded themselves In their back room,
making a breastworks of flour sacks.
The debris caught fire and Sutton Far
ris rushed In attempting to put II out.
Then the first volley of shots was fired
and continued until eighty or n hun
dred bullets had pierced the wall.
There was respite for few minutes,
and Roach White, stepping into the
main room for other sacks of -four to
add to the baIricade stumbled over the
body of Farris.

are produced with precision.
