In a letter to DR.. Hartman concern
ing the merits Of Pe-ru-na, Mrs. Brew
1r writes, among other things:
Westerly, r. I.
Dear Or. Hartmann find Pe-ru-na
a sure cure for all catarrhal affections
10 common in this part OF the country.
It cures a cold at once. There Is no
cough medicine that can at all equal
Pe-ru-na. AS for la grippe. there is
no other remedy that can at all com
pare with Pe-ru-na.
II am among the sick a great deal
in u city and have supplied many
invalids with Pe-ru-nG, simply be-
cause I m enthusiastic In my faith
as to its results. / have never known
II to fail to quickly and permanently
remove that d~emoralized state OF the
human system which follows la grippe.
TN all cases Of extreme weakness

Of a good result. In cases Of weak
ness peculiar to my sex I am sure that
no other remedy can approach in good

A diamond circular saw for cutting
stone is described In London En-.
cheering, and is said to cut hard sand
stone blocks at the rate Of five feet
per minute. The saw has dovetailed
recesses In which are fitted steel
blocks, each containing a diamond. A
hole is drilled into the block, but
stopped before running through. "A
diamond Is dropped into the hole, and
a steel wire peg driven ia behind 1t.

Nannette and Keene had grown NJ

since they played together as children
in the sandheaps in Mother Morse's
garden. Since DR.. Coulson came to
town there had been a growing cold
ness between the two. The doctor
had been very attentive to Nanette.
Sherman Keene resented this and had
demonstrated with Nannette, but the
little school teacher had taken offense
and in words more hasty than wise
had sent Keene about his business. re-
minding him that she was still mis-
tress of her own actions. Keene had
avoided her since that time and she.
perhaps to show that she did not care.
had encouraged the attentions OF the
gallant doctor. At all events, It was
with DR.. Coulson as escort that she at
tended many of the socials and enter
tainments that winter. Keene loved
Nannette with all the deep feeling Of
his sturdy manly nature, but he felt
that she had been In the wrong in
their quarrel and feared a haunting
repulse IL he should attempt to rein
state himself. II Nannette preferred
the doctor rather than himself he
would not try to interfere. II Nan
nette cared only for him, surely she
would acknowledge her fault some
day and all would be well again. At
any rate, Keene would not intrude
where he was not wanted. AS for
Nannette, she seemed to be enjoying
herself.
Keene dreamed on az he sat before
the open fire. and II was not until the
first gray light Of morning peeped In
at the windows that he awoke. He
was surprised to find himself still In
the armchair and the vague thought
Of his dream, something wrong with
Nannette," still haunted him. The
wind was still bowling about, and the
drifting snow sWirled and clattered
about the windows. When he looked
out at the storm he cried out In aston
ishment. Never before had such a sight
presented itself in Cedarville. Great
mountains Of snow were piled up Ia
every direction. the Morse's cottage
could not be seen for the drifting snow
and the little red schoolhouse up on
the mountain side was buried all but
the chimney. AS Sherman Keene
looked with ~wide-eyed astonishment
on the work Of the blizzard, he seemed
to feel a voice telling Of something
wrong, some danger for Nannette.

Our cares like other folk;
The pOcketbOok is sometimes full.
We're sometimes nigh dead broke;
But once a year, at Chrismastime,
Our hearth Is bright to see;
Then baby's hand just touches heaven
When daddy lights the tree
For weeks and weeks the little ones
Have lotted on this hour;
And mother, she has planned for Il
Since summers sun aud shower.
With here a nickel. there a dime,
Put by where non should see,
A loving hoard against the night
When daddy lights the tree
The weest kid in mothers arms
Laughs out and clasps her hands,
The rest Of us on tiptoe wait;
The grown-up brother stands
Where he can reach the topmost
branch,
Our Santa Claus to be,
In that sweet hour OF breathless Joy,
When daddy lights the tree.
Our grandpa says twas just as dne
In days when he was young;
For every Christmas ages through
The happy bells have rung.
And daddy's head Is growing gray,
But yet a boy Is he,
AS merry as the rest OF US.

BRASS BAND.

There is nothing that adds to the at
fractions of town more than good
brass band, and when people consider
the facts that in order that band may
be maintained in place certain num-
Der of its citizens are required to not
only give large portion of time to the
detriment of business and be away
from their families, in hard, persistent
practice, besides the expense OF pur-
chasing and keeping their instruments
in repair, but in order to become pro-
ficient and in touch with the times
they must be provided with music and
proper uniforms. In most places the
citizens bear the expense besides pay
ing the band boys something for their
time, and thereby lend encouragement
aud appreciation, the best incentive
they can offer. to induce the band boys
to turn out upon every occasion in
good practice and cheerful effort to
thrill and enthuse actively all public
meetings. picnics and celebrations with
good music, which never fails to draw
out the people and assure success.
Many towns boasts of having an ex-
cellent brass band, but the citizens do
little or nothing to encourage the band
boys or show them that their musical
ability Is appreciated, nor assist them
In the way of room rent or keep them
supplied with music. The towns can
