DIR. Max Nordau. who has lately
turned his attention to the consoliSa-
ton Of large companies of cap. .salists,
Is one Of the most skillful and learned
physicians of Europe. His vsry wide
spread fame is due. however. not to his
scientific ability, but rather to his bril-
lance as an author. In 1883 he shocked
and delighted two continents with his
rarely analytical book. Conventional
Lies of Society,"" In 1886 he published
his 'Paradoxes," and in 1893 the work
by which he is best known, "Degenera-
tion." In this remarkably original
book DR.. Nordau attempts to show on
purely psycho-physiological grounds
that all modern tendencies are toward
degeneration. He fortifies his position
by examinations into art. literature
and life, and claims that degeneracy
is seen in all mental and moral phe-
nomena. DR.. Nordau is descended from
well-known Jewish family of Buda-

have been offered $50 for, but the av-
erage price is S25. They are the finest
little acrobats I've ever seen. For in
stance, here's cage made on purpose
for pocket monkey. You will notice
that it resembles miniature gymna-
sium. There are trapezes, horizontal
bars and all sorts OF things Of that
kind. Now, If a pocket monkey didn't
find them in his home he would be
heart broken. OF course they don't
perform just whenever one wants
them to. but in the morning. Just after
they have walked up, you will find
them doing every conceivable gymnas-

A JUDGES wife ,tlai: sSsI :s4...a #
She Suffered for Years and
Felt Her Case Was Hope
1ess-Cured by
Pe-ru-na.

Mrs. Judge McAllister writes from
1877 West 33rd St. Minneapolis, Mimi,
as follows:
the small of my back and right side.
It interfered often with my domestic
and social duties and never supposed
that I would be cured, as the doctors
medicine did not seem to help me any
Fortunately member of our Order
advised me to try Peruna and gave it
such high praise that decided to try
it. Although / started in with little
faith. felt SO much better in a week
that felt encouraged.
Il took it faithfully for seven weeks
and am happy indeed to be able to say
that l 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 enjoy
that now."-Minnie E. McAllister.
The great popularity of Peruna as a
catarrh remedy has tempted many
people to initiate Peruna. 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 a 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.
We would therefore caution all peo-

Pocket
Monkeys

The latest fad in the way of pets is
the pocket monkey. 1t is only about
two years since the little fellow made
his first appearance in this country in
his present capacity, and he might be
said to have taken the hearts of pet
lovers by storm. Now his popularity
has become SO great that the men who
make business of catering to the
whims of the people who like pets say
that the demand for the pocket mon
key Is five times as great as the sup
ply. They predict bright future for
the new favorite just as soon as the
people down in Brazil can be made to
understand what a good commercial
article they have and thus be induced
to make a regular business of captur-
ing these monkeys and shipping them
up here.
The pocket monkey dwells so far in
the interior OF Brazil as to be almost
out of the reach of traders. He is,
perhaps. the smallest member of the
monkey family known, being about
five inches long. but with tail that is
sometimes three times as long as his
body. He belongs to the marmot fam
lily of monkeys, and is extremely neat
in person and cleanly OF habit. II it
wasn't for those characteristics, he
would not be holding the place he does
in the hearts of those who have in
vested in him.

Successful Diplomacy.

The State Department has received
the amount of the American indemnity
for the claims against Turkey, $95, 600,
through the American legation ut Con
stantinoplc.
The money was paid by the Turkish
government to Mr.. Leishman. our min
lister at COnstantinOple. was by him
placed in the Ottoman Imperial bank,
and drafts remltted 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
$4,000 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 it 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 Marash. but there are a num-
her of individual claims. such. for in
stance. rs 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-
perienced 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.
For more than decade the AmerI-
can claims have been pending. Minis
ter Terrell initiated them: DIR. Angel
went over to collect them, expecting to
be so engaged only short time, but
he returned unsuccessful, after several
years In Constantinople. Then Minis
ter Strauss took them up. and when
he resigned he passed them along to
young Mr.. Griscom. The latter only
recently committed his heavy charge
to Mr.. Leishman. and while to the lat
ter belongs the credit of actually col
lecting the money, 1t Is said at the
State Department that every one Of
the officers named has contributed val
nable services toward the final settle-
ment.

Moderrized Palestine.

In spite Of all our philosophy the
invasion of the birthplace of Chris
tianity by modern devices and modes
of life CRATES harshly on sensitive
minds Names hallowed by religious
associations seem out of place on rail-
way timetables or subscription lists
of long-distance telephones. OF
course, all this is illogical, for we
need not expect any part of the
world to remain in infancy, still prim-
tive habits and modes of life are so
naturally blended with the Biblical
narrative that we cannot entirely sup
press wish for their perpetuation.
But modern innovations are strangers
to sympathy. The railway from Joppa
to Jerusalem, at first an experiment,
is now run on strictly business prin-
ciples, and branches are under con-
struction to familiar places up and
down the Jordan. Trolley lines are
projected to connect Jerusalem with
Bethlehem, Bethany, the Lake of Gal
lice, Samaria, Jericho, Nazareth and
other places, while in the city itself
there are electric lights, telephones
and other modern conveniences. In
stead Of the workman longing his
shadow, he now consults a cheap Am
erican watch for quitting time, and
all other modern supplies are han
died by commission houses through

known that out of about 14,OOO bene-

nearly all of them are decreasing in
