some time with catarrh Of the lower

after taking two bottles Of Peruna the
trouble almost entirely disappeared. For
this special malady I consider It wen

Augustus Hare tells this story in
bis autobiography Of a friend, who in
some ways, was one OF the most abb
sent-minded men IN the world. One
day, meeting a friend, he said: Hello,
what a long time II Is since I've seen
you! HOw's your father!" "Oh, my
fathers dead" God bless me! I'm
very sorry.' The next year he met
the same man again, and had forgot
ten all about It, so began with: Hello!
what long time since I've seen you!
How's your father?" "Oh, my fathers
dead still"

been heaping up wrath and fndigna-

it has not done anything lately to stir

the Imperial Yeomanry IN the matter
Of their pay. These men went out to
South Africa on the understanding
that they would be away q year. They
were promised In some cases that their

The story is that Capt. Jones at that
ume needed the services of an expert
draughtsman. He applied to the head
OF the draughting department for a
man, asking for the best man in the
place.
i have no best man." said the chief.
They are all good"
capt. Jones went away The next day
an order was issued that to complete a
certain piece Of work all Of the
draughtsmen should work two hours
overtime each day for several weeks
without pay. All OF the draughtsmen
grumbled except one man Capt. Jones
came along the next day and said TO
the chief Of the draughting depart
ment: How do the men like that or
der?"
They don't like it and are all grum-
bling except one man, was the reply.
Who is that mani" asked Capt.
Jones.
"Schwab."
Give me sehwab," said Capt. Jones.
From that day the young draughts-
mans success began. The man who
told this story was asked what he
thought Of President SShwab. He said:

rededicatiOn ceremony viii take place
which is intended to be the most mem

One Of the founders Of Centenary

Mrs. Mary Gordon GoOdfeIlow. She Is

Centenary's early days Mrs. Goodfel-

tenary Society, which accomplished a
great deal for church work. The So
ciety raised $1,000 q year for many
years. It was done by sewing and BY
q large annual fair and festival. She
says that there was a greater readiness
70 contribute money % years ago than
now. In this connection she tells a
story Of the evangelist, John Newland
Mafitt This minister, who was one
Of the most eloquent preachers Of his
day. had made a glowing appeal for
funds for Centenary in 1899, and he
promised his st. Louis congregation
that II they would do their part he
would himself contribute $500. He was
not rich man, and It Is doubtful II
all his possessions were so much as
$500. He left St Louis to 90 to New
Orleans, taking one Of the elegant
steamers which piled the river in those
days. The boat was filed with wealthy
