Scotch schoolmaster Named Donaldson

James Madison, fourth president OF
the United States, was born at Port

Their was planter in moderate circum-
stances, and James was the eldest of
family of twelve. The boys first
education was received at a school
kept by worthy Scotchman, named
Donaldson. His progress was remark
able and encouraged his father to give
his son a college education. Young
Madison entered Princeton college and
was graduated in 1772, remaining a
year after to make a study of Hebrew.
On his return home he devoted himself
to teaching his brothers and sisters,
all the time pushing his own studies,
IN history and constitutional law he
was especially well versed, and these
requirements served him well in his
public career. EARLY in 1776 he was
appointed a delegate to the state con
vention which met in May, at Will
llamsburg. This conventions duty was
-
to instruct the Virginia delegation to
the continental congress in regard to
the declaration Of independence. Three
years. later young Madison was a dele
gate to congress, and from that time
ne held many important public offices.
IN IN 1909 he was elected president of
the United States. He served during
one of the most critical periods in the
history OF the country while the sec
ond war with Great Britain was in
progress. At the close Of his second
term as chief executive Madison re-
tired to his estate at Montpelier, Va,
where he peacefully passed the last
twenty years of his life with his be-
loved books and friends He died there

WHY GIRLS CANNOT THROW.


There Is a scientific Reason, Cons
sisting OF Difference IN Their
s Structsire and That OF boys
Is In this. the season Of outdoor sports,
The boy t school is prone to poke fun
at his sister, because she prefers to
skip the rope, and deride her because
she cannot perforce throw a top at all,
while he can make his spin every time.
And he generally consoles himself for
lack of her. company by saying that
girls can't throw, nohow.'''
& In this he is far nearer right than he
thinks. perhaps. Girls cannot throw,
at least. not like men can. And they
never can. They are not built that
way. IL ..3 s1 i i .52
When a boy throws a stone he crooks
his elbow and reaches back with his
forearm, and uses every joint from
shoulder to wrist. The boys arm is re-
faxed; a. girl throws with a rigid arm.
This is because her collar bone is long
er aid set lower than is a boys. This
interferes with the free motion of her
arm, required in throwing accurately.

Peruna restores health in q normal

Peruna puts right all the mucous

way restores the functions Of every

If it is the stomach that is out Of

branes the vitality and activity which
belongs to them.
The pelvic organs are also lined
with mucous membrane which in the
female sex is especially liable to de-
rangements. Peruna is an absolute
specific In these cases. The women
everywhere are praising it. No other

When the big american line steam

end Of Long Branch, before daylight
on January rs, 1896, in the cargo was
81 ,260, 900 IN gold, consi gned to a firm
in New York. 1t was essential that
{ this should be landed. Arrangements
were made with the Merritt ghapman
L Wrecking company to have the strand

including the gold, were heavily in

going to be very difficult to float the
big ship the consignees Of the gold,
who needed 1t in their business, APP
pealed to Captain Clark as Llyod's New
York agent to have It landed. 1t re-

not make any strenuous efforts to have
the bullion discharged, and just as
naturally Lloyds were anxious to get
1T on as quickly as possible, for in the
event OF a storm arising and causing
the destruction of the ship the gold
would have added so much more to the
loss OF the underwriters. Captain
Clark chartered q steamer and offered
to take charge of the gold and land it.
Thereupon the captain obtained a
promise that the gold would be landed
ediately. Thus the underwriters
were relieved of the further risk and
expense OF floating the stranded ship.
The gold was transferred to the lighter
Haggerty down a sagging chute sug-
gestive stretch OF canvas in bags, kegs
and boxes. Twelve men armed with
