photography of Maine. However, if a Ier-
son should go to the state library with
one of those volumes in his hand I have
an idea that the institution would pay
$lG0 or $500 for the work. Fact is, there
is probably a larger premium on that
book than on any other by a Maine au-
thor. For twenty years certain parties
have been engaged so sedulousIy in de-
Stroying the books that it is scarcely ever
that one is turned up. Mr. Dunton didn't
write that book in any dilettante spirit.
He wrote it for a purpose. and was so
much in earnest that he paid for the
publishing of the book, and for the most
part gave the edition away. The volume
is as large as the ordinary novel and
therefore 1t may be seen that Mr. Dunton
was very much interestedS IN what he
was doing. The story is too long to tell

az follows:

1t interfered often with my domestic
and social duties and 1 never supposed

Il took 1t faithfully for seven weeks
and am happy indeed to be able to say
that l am entirely cured. Words fail

wish for. and thanks to Peruna enjoy

The great popularity of Peruna as
catarrh remedy has tempted many
people to initiate Peruna. A great
many so-called catarrh remedies and
catarrhal tonics 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 uniform price. and no
druggist can get it cent cheaper.
Thus 1t is that druggists are tempted
to substitute the cheap limitations OF
Peruna for Peruna. 1t Is done every
day without doubt.

succc..ful Diplomacy.

The State Department has received
the amount of the American indemnity
for the claims against Turkey, $95, 600,
through the American legation at Con-
stantinOple.
The money was paid by the Turkish
government to Mr.. Lcishman, our min
lister at ConstantinOple, was by him
placed in the Ottoman Imperial bank,
and drafts rcmitted for the amount.
These drafts have just reached Wash.
ington. AS is always the case, the
claims in the aggregate considerably
exceed the amount of indemnity actu-
ally paid. but our government has ex-
pressed itself satisfied with the pay
ment. 1t assumes full responsibility
for the distribution, the Turkish gov
ernment paying down lump sum of
$95, 600 and leaving it to the State De-
partment to distribute it among the
claimants. at its discretion, and after
Its own fashion. 1t is stated that as
soon as the department officials can
prepare the list 1t will communicate
directly with the claimants.
These claims are principally based
on losses suffered by the American
missionary and educational institu-
tions in Turkey. notably those at Har.
poot and Mnrash. but there are num-
ber of individual claims, such. for in
stance. as that Of the family of the un-
fortunate Cyclist LEM. the Pittsburg
man who was killed by Turkish sol.
diers while attempting to go around
the globe on his wheel.
The State Department officials feel
the greatest satisfaction at the settle
ment of these claims. Secretary Hay
had been told by diplomats skilled In
the ways of Oriental diplomacy and ex-
perlenced in the political conditions of
southern Europe, that he never would
he able to collect them. Among other
difficulties the State Department had to
contend with was the jealousy Of the
great European powers. most Of whom
had claims against Turkey vastly
larger In amount than ours. and whose
total was beyond the ability Of the
Turkish government to meet.
