They said there was nothing the matter with his ears. when he was getting more deaf every day. I wrote you for advice, and began giving him Peruna. Now I am thankful to say that he is cured.

 My little daughter three years old vas troubled with a very bad cough which remained after an attack of ca tarrhal fever. The cough was a great deal worse at night.

A FAD FOR BEADS.
How an Oriental Taste is Fostered
 in Many Ways.

Brooklyn Eagle.
 Chains made from all sorts. hues and kinds of beads are worn this season. In fact, the chain fad is one of the pro- nounced faneies of the moment and has led clever, industriously inclined young women to try their skill in the fashioning of these modlsh accessories for indoor and outdoor costumes. In consequence some exceedingly artistic and original de- signs have been evolved by these ingeni- ous amateurs. Muff chains, purse chains, necklaces and host Of other useful and ornamental varieties of chains represent the seasons output as seen in the shops and made at home. The tendency toward things Oriental and semi-Oriental, par ticularly in decorative way. has stimu- lated interest in the bread fad" for gaily colored chains are invariably worn by the color loving Oriental.

 "I shall always be friend of Peruna as I consider 1t the mest medicine for coughs we have ever tried"
 In later letter she says
 Our little daughter still continues to have good health since she has taken Peruna. We call her our Peruna baby"
 Thousands of families in all parts of the United States are protected each winter by Peruna. Once in the family, Peruna always stays. No home can spare Peruna after the first trial of 1t.
 John H. Anderson, of Covington, Ga, writes:
 This Is to certify that my daughter, Blanche Anderson, eight years of age, suffered with catarrh of the head for three years while living in Massachusetts. At times it affected her eyes. so that she could not bear the light, and would have to be kept in a dark room for three and four days. It finally went to her ears. She became quite deaf. and one of her ears began to discharge pus that was very offensive. wrote to pr. Hartman

Real Daughters.

It is gratifying to report the interest some Alabama Chapters are taking In these worthy and venerable women. one Chapter has recently secured the mem bership of two and we are promised a sketch of their lives for this column: the members feel not only sentimental interest in these women, but a very prac- tical one, as they are in destitute cir- cumstances and the Chapter is trying to make them more comfortable and bright en somewhat their declining days. Through the kindness of Russell Bros, of Anniston, we have received the photo graph of Mrs. Polly Ffte, who lives near Jacksonville, but is a member of Gen. Sumter Chapter. Her picture and sketch of her life will shortly appear in the American Monthly Magazine and later in our column. There are Real Daugh- ters" in the Peter Forney, Martha wayles Jefferson, John Wade Reyes and possibly other Chapters, and we want their names and something of their fam fly history in Alabama's, contribution to the next Smithsonian Report. which is to be published in February. Two i'm portant features of our worR-searching out Real Daughters and locating graves of Revolutionary soldiers-should excite the interest and energetic endeavor of all Alabama D. A. R. We have had ex- cellent success already and must perse- we're until the work is completed.

PEOPLE WERE COMMENTED
IN CONCENTRATION CAMP

Washington, May 30.-Before the
senate committee on the Philippines
Col. Wagner described the concentra-
ton of camps. People were as
sembled according to villages, so they
has old old neighbors near them. They
were surprisingly contented and he
saw no evidence of want among them.
They were allowed to go from 300 To
500 yards outside the line. The pur-
pose of concentration was to protec.
the people from the ladrones, and 70
facilitate the collection of rice sup
plies in order to starve out the ia
drones and guerrillas. The result was
that hostile parties practically disap-
peared. People in these camps were
fed, given medical attention and the
sanitation of the camps was looked
after.
