Y CONGRESSMAN BoTKIN= is on

HONG8ESSMAN BOTk1N is one Of the most influential and best
 known men in the State of Kansas. Whatever he may say on any subject will be accepted by the people as he truth. So famous a remedy as PerUna could not have well escaped the atten tion of so famous q man. lie not only has heard of the remedy. but lie has used il and was relieved of an atiliction of twenty-five years standing. Pefana is the one internal remedy that cures chronic catarrh. It cures catarrh wherever located. This is a fact that the people are rapidly finding out, but there are still q large multitude who need to know it.
 Mr. Frank Richter. of Winona, Minn., says in letter to The Peruna Medi- oine Company:
 AS a remedy for catarrh l take pleasure in recommending Peruna for catarrh of the stomach. l know what it is to be afflicted with this awful dis ease and consider it my duty to say a word in behalf of the remedy which gave me such relief. Peruna cured me, and know it will cure anyone else who suffers from this disease. It gives me great pleasure to testify to the eura-
 
 q we'll tested and frequently used rem edy, and for catarrh of the stomach is unsurpassed.
 My catarrh was principally located in my head and stomach. Itried many remedies without success. tried sew eral doctors, but they were unable to cure me. I read of Peruna in the pa- pers and five bottles cured me- Frank Richter.
 The gastric juice is secreted by the mucous follicles of the stomach. When this juice is normal it digests (dissolves) the food without produc- ing any disturbance whatever. If however, the gastric juice is not nor mai, digestion causes many disagree able symptoms. This condition is known as indigestion. Peruna will cure this.

BREAKING RESOLUTIONS.
A Custom Popular with Many Men
at the Beginning of Every
Year,

There is custom among men, as
venerable as it is popular, of making
good resolutions with the advent of
the new year and of faithfully break
ing them before it is week old. It
is we'll to make good resolutions at
any time, and there is no objection
to New Years day as one of the
dates. AS rule, however, says the
Chicago Journal, a man who cannot
keep a good resolution in June will
be no more successful with it in JAN
uary, but it is wise of him tc make
it on New Years day, if only on the
chance of it's keeping him decent a
week. On this occasion, in addition
to making his good resolutions re-
garding his personal conduct, it
might not be amiss for the confirmed
swearer-off to give thought or two
to his behavior to his neighbor. To
forbear to lie; to scorn to cheat; to
eschew avarice; to shun evil-speak-
ing; to forswear the practice of
equivocal business methods; to check
rash temper and cease worrying over
trivial things; to love the truth; to
aid the friendless; to be kind to the
little children; to be tolerant of the
frailties of the weak-these are
some of the ennobling aims.
1t is a time to bury dead issues, to
put away, decently and in order, i'm
possible hopes and dreams and face
the future with strong courage
and bright heart. And with the
forward look must come the convic-
ton to every man who keeps his soul
as we'll as his body clean that there
is a blessing in the fields and the
mountains and the sea, a stimulant
in the very sunshine; that the world
in which we live is a very beautiful
place.
There can be no happiness in the
world without unselfishness. There
fore, when you wish your friend a
happy new year pray that he may be
unselfsh, and try to do something
for others; for if he is human he
can find happiness in no other way.
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1901-12-27

of goodies" and that is why he hap
pened to be poring over cookbook
at an hour when he was usually
sound asleep in his comfortable bed.
"Mince pie is what I want" he
said, "but my cupboard is against it..
I've got the meat and vinegar and
sugar, but there are no spices, and
I'd have to use dried apple, and I'm
not sure I know how the crust is
made. I wonder if I could use cram
berries and dried blackberries in
stead of raisins and currants? I
have half a mind to try it, anyhow"
Suiting the action to the word,
Jack donned his oil cloth apron, and
was soon at work. There was plen-
ty of meat and dried apples which he
had cooked that day, and he was
quite sure that he remembered to
what degree of minuteness he used
