No other remedy invented by man has
ever received as much praise from men
of high station as Peruna. Over forty
members of Congress have tried it and
recommended it to suffering humanity.
They use it themselves to guard against
the effects of the intense strain of public
life; to ward off the ill effects of the
changeable climate of Washington.
They keep il in their homes for family
use. They recommend it to their neigh
bors, and they do not hesitate in public

We have in our school two types of
pupils-the intellectual and the mo-
tor. The latter type learns from
doing rather than from the text book.
This class of pupils takes little in
terest in booIzwork but finds great
pleasure in laboratory work or
manual training. Hitherto the high
school course has made ample pro
vision for the intellectual type but
not for the motor. The public school

A curiosity Of great an3QuttH q stin
10 be seen within st. Andrews church
at Willoughton, near Gainsborougha
says an English magazine. This Is a
quaint speaking trumpet with an OBJ
scure early history, dating back to the
times Of the knights Templara In
shape it resembles French horn and
is more than five feet long, having a
bell at the end Of the graduated tube,
1t was formerly six feet In length, but
is now telescoped at the joints, where
the metal has apparently decayed.
Tradition declares it was formerly
sounded from the tower to summon
aid in case Of need, as, when blown
at height, the weird, deep notes the
trumpet produced could be heard q
great distance away in bygone days.
1t is believed that this curious instru-
ment has often been used to call to-
gether the villagers, thus dispensing
with the usual bell, and to give addi-
tonal power and strength to the choir,
being then probably used by the chief
singer, as the trumpet intensihes vocal
sound to marked degree.

Henpecked For a Day.

In the little hamlet OF Nordhastedt,
near Meldorf, singular custom is OBJ
served annually. According to tradi-
ton, it dates back to the thirteenth
century. During that era the hamlet
was on one occasion attacked by a
band of robbers, and the men of the
village were soon compelled to beat a
retreat.
Thereupon the women boldly at
tackled the robbers and not only van
pushed them, but also took the leader
and several of the band prisoners. AS
a token of their gratitude the men
have ever since allowed the women to
celebrate this great event by holding
festival at stated intervals, and on
such occasions they exercise no au-
thority themselves. but submit in all
things to the will of the women.
The latter greatly enjoy their tenn
porary supremacy and. as a symbol
thereof. never fall to fasten large
wco'len slipper to every lamp and
chandelier in the hamlet.
