Man,Inon Worship.

Undoubtedly one of the worst things
a young man has to contend against
in the New York of today is mammon
worship. 1T is perfectly rotten" said
a young fellow recently in the YER
nacular of his kind. "a man must
have money or he is failure; he
must make it somehow, and he must
not be too long about it, either, for 1t
is the only criterion Of success. Moth
ing counts without it, and it makes
fellow feel that all he has been taught
as a boy to consider desirable is not
worth while. The cultivation Of ones
mind, the living up to any standard,
an honorable career in ones profes
sion, are all very we'll in their way
if chap is content to plod along with
out being much thought of, but the
world does not consider such things
of much account They do not mean
money, and that is really the only
thing worth having, apparently. 1t is
all very stultifying, of course. l know
that | am dcteriorating morally; that
| no longer feel any enthusiasm for
things that | used to admire, and that
my whole mind is warped by the greed
for gain which see on every side, and
which is the dominant spirit among the
people | know. | Gespise myself for it,
and | despise the world live in" But
what is a elbow to do?"-New York
Tribune.

THE TRADE IN TATToClNG.
A Once Profitable Industry That HI

Once Profitable Industry That Hat
Fallen Off In Late Years.
The tattoo market is not in satis-
factory condition. 1t has grown worse
steadily for several years, and none OF
the leading professionals are happy
over the trade as it stands or the
promise for the immediate future. One
of them said the other day that he had
had half mind to close up shop for
good. "a few years ago." he said,
there were 10 of us tatooers in this
shop and the bus mess was great, Dut
the American people don't care for hne
art, and we are suffering accordingly.
There was a time when no museum
was complete without tatooed man
or tattooed lady Those were the
days that made a fellow happy. Cap
tain Costenus, the Great tatooed
Creek was worth $4,000 year at one
time, and Mile Celeste, who was cap
tured and made princess and tatooed
by the cannibals Of Fiji (between our
selves was the Tijis), got $3.50 q week
for several seasons. The trade has
not died out altogether, but we do r"'

That is to prevent his being stolen, she
says. l never heard OF case where
1t did prevent it, but then they get the
idea from blood-and-thunder novels,
and feel quite proud when it is done
Another class who want queer symbols
tattooed upon their bodies are the the
osophists and men who belong to Or
ganizations I never heard OF"
"Is your work difficult?"
"Not at all. All that it requires is
a steady hand, O good eye and a aknowl-
edge of the business. For tattooing
blue and dark blue we use India ink
today just as they have done for CEN
turies. For reds we employ cochineal
and sometimes purified iron rust. For
green there is a mineral powder
ground very fine that beats anything
know OF. For yellow, ochre is the
best. You have to be very careful
with colors, and often think the
trade got a black eye from careless or
ignorant people using injurious or
poisonous substances. Many OF the
colored inks when tattooed make big
sores. So will many of the water
colors which are used by painters.
Chrome yellow is poisonous, and SO
are all the greens and blues which
contain copper. | ought to say that
chrome green is not dangerous except
ing when it is impure and contains
lead. There are some vegetable colors
which are not injurious, but ought not
to be used, because they are slowly
dissolved by the blood. You can get
very beautiful effect from spinach
green. 1t looks just as pretty as the
side of ripe green apple, but after
year it grows quite faint, and in three
or four years it is absorbed altogether
and there is nothing left. When | be-

The great popularity of Peruna as a ca
tarrh remedy has tempted many people to
initiate Peruna. A great many so-called
catarrh remedies and catarrhal tonlcs 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 cent cheaper.
Thus it is that druggists are tempted to
substitute the cheap limitations OF Peruna
for Peruna. 1t is done every day without
doubt.
