A remedy that would act immediat

A remedy that would act Immediately
upon the congested mucous membrane,
restoring it to its normal state. would
consequently cure all these diseases.
Catarrh is catarrh wherever located,
whether it be in the head, throat, lungs,
stomach, kidneys, or pelvic organs. A
remedy that will cure it in one location
will cure it in all locations. +
Peruna is such n remedy. The Sisters
of Charity know this. When catarrhal
diseases make their appearances they are
not disconnected. but know exactly what
remedy to use. These wise and prudent
Sisters have found peruna n neyer-fail-
ing safeguard. They realize thar when
Il disease is of catarrhal nature, Pcruna
is the remedy. Dyspepsia and female
weakness are considered by many to. be
entirely different diseases-thnt dyspep-
sin is catarrh of the stomach and female
weakness is due to ~catarrli OF the pelvic
organs the Sisters are fully aware, con-
sequcntly Peruna is their remedy in
both these very common and annoying
diseases.
If you do not receive prompt and satis-
factory results from the use of Peruna,

full statement Of your case, and he will
be pleased to give you his valuable ad-

MAN TURNED TO STONE.
Interesting Find on Padre Island
Off Pacific Coast.

The finding of the petritied body Of
man on Padre island, on the southeast
ern coast of Texas, twenty-three miles
from Corpus Christi, is the subject Of
an article in the st. Louis Globe-Dem
ocrat. According to the statement OF
the finders, who were on Padre island
searching for supposed buried treas
ure, the body was discovered while
they were digging in the sands. DR..
Spohr of Texas said in regard to the
discovery:
when l first learned of the discov-
cry of this petrifed man / gave little
serious consideration to the matter, as
l recalled the Cardiff giant hoax.
When l finally decided TO examine the
body made up my mind to take no
chances. l have applied every scien-
tific test within my knowledge. and
unhesitatingly pronounce the remains
before me those of petrified human
body. | further state as my positive
opinion that this is the only instance
of the discovery of human body that
was actually turned to stone.
''This find will eventually prove OF
much scientific value. Those wise
men, who have often asserted that the
liquid in human body would prevent
petriication will now have to revise
their theory. This is an age of new
discoveries. What is today regarded
as an incontrovertible fact is liable to
be dlsproven tomorrow. The idea
that the figure before me was moulded
or artifcially produced in any manner
is all nonsense.
''No artist ever lived who could pro-
duce such perfect presentation to a
human hand as that pointing to the
remains), to say nothing of other feat
ures. A sculptor who could so master
lv initiate a human form would never
be engaged in trying to hoax the pub
lie. Estimating from its size, in life
the body must have weighed not ex-
ceeding 140 pounds. Its actual weight
now il 298 pounds"

How the Mother Mammal Garry
their Young.

A representative of the Pensacola
Fla. Press was shown the saw of a
large saw fish that was captured in
the bav, not far from the navy yard.
The big fish was captured in tram
mel net and was about nine feet long,
the saw being oyer four feet in length
At the time of the capture the mother
fish had five young ones clinging to
her teats-three on one side and two
on the other-and The little mammals
hung on like grim death, it being diff
ficult to extract them after the cap
ture. The little mammals were about
two feet long, their saws being about
twelve inches in length. The saw fish
is the only known species of the NAM
NAL carrying its young suspended
from its teats as the mother fisher
roams the deep blue sea in search of
food, or fleeing from threatened danger.
The little ones are said never to re-
lease their vicelike grip until ''wean-

WIRELESS TELEPHONY NEXT
Some Interesting Experiments
Wireless Telephony a Fact.

Wireless telephone communication
is a fact Instruments invented by
Prof. r. A. Fessenden have been in
stalled in homes along the coast near
Cape Hatteras and Roanoke Island,
and for a distance of fourteen miles
the ticks from the wireless telegraph
instruments can be heard over the tel
ephone, says a Norfolk, Va, dispatch.
Another strange feature in con-
nection with the experiments is the
ability to hear MESA res being sent
over one line through instruments
connected with another line at some
distance from the wire over which the
message is being sent.
The experiments are being conduct
ed between Frisco and Buxton, N. G.,
and instruments have been placed on
the houses of J. j. Davis of Buxton,
with wire to Creeds Hill life-saving
station. 1t has no connection with the
government wire at that point, but
messages over the government wire
can be heard over the private line. A.
j. Eulcher of Frisco has q wire run
ming from his home to the life-saving
station, but it also has no connection
with the government wire, neither is
it connected with the wire from Mr..
Davis home. The extremities OF the
two wires at the station are over
twelve feet apart, nevertheless mes"
sages that are sent over either of them
or over the government wire can east
~ be heard over either of the other
two wires.
Ticks from the wireless telegraph
instruments over fourteen miles away
are also plainly audible.

preparations which are made.
"These contract authorizations are
in the nature of promissory notes of the
government, issued by this session of
congress, to be met and iquidated in
the future, and constitute as much a
part of the appropriations chargeable
10 this session as are the specific APP
preparations made anil which are to be
expended, not al once, but throughout
the coming fiscal year.
The two sums aggregate S1,059,-
81, 052. The appropriations, including
authorized contracts, of this session
exceeded those, including contracts, of
the last session by s27O, 1881
The last session of the iifty-third
congress for the fiscal year 1896 was
democratic in both branches and the
government was administered by Mr.
Cleveland. 1t, therefore, affords fair
grounds for the purpose of comparison.
The difference between the total then

small fee is charged. The candidate
for cure enters and kneels on stone
ledge beside the water--and then, &C.
cording to the cherished legend, what
ever allied him once thereafter ails
him no more. Anyone who visits the
little chapel at almost any time in the
wear will find it full of the lame, the
halt and the blind, most of them peo-
pie of the poorer classes, and the viii
layers of Holywell tell of endless mi
raculous cures that have taken place
before their astonished eyes. That
folk have come to Holywell in trouble
and gone away without it is proved by
the interior of the chapel, which is
ornamented with crutches and deco
rated with bandages that the 'cured'
have thrown disdainfully aside upon
being made whole.
The spring is remarkable for its
size, whether you believe in its heal
ing powers or not, for its green, ice
colo water bubbles up from the earth
at the rate of over 20 tons a minute.

NO WAR TAXES BEING PAID
New Tax Schedule of the United
States Now i'm Effect.

The new tax schedule of the internal
revenue department went into effect
July /, which begins another fiscal
year. Under the new schedule taxes
have been taken off of banks, brokers,
notes and all papers of a similar char
acter. The legacy tax has also been
repealed. All taxes imposed by the
war revenue act, which was for emer-
gency revenue, have been repealed,
and only those that were in force pri-
or to June 13, 1898, are now of force,
and some OF these have been slightly
modified.
The list of articles on which taxes
will have to be paid during the ensu-
ing fiscal year are liquors, oleomargar-
inc, distilled spirits, cigars. cigarettes,
prepared smoking opium and similar
goods.
Taxpayers of the class enumerated
are warned to give in their taxes dur
ing this mouth, otherwise they will
have to pay so per cent more, and if it
is found chat they have not been given
in at all they will be double taxed.
