M,sdicine in Bombay.

A Swedish consul at Bombay says
that because of their fear of sanitary
inspection and modern methods of pre-
venting and curing disease the natives
of India in vast numbers are the VIC
tins of plague. In consequence Of the
hatred and fear of hospitals and med
ical men the population of Bombay has
decreased 10000 in the last ten years,
while the increase In the whole of In
dia In the same time was about Is per
cent. Bombay now has 100000 people.
The hospital and general medical SER
vice in India are of the best and do
much good in the affected districts in
spite Of the prejudice which prevails
against such things. The plague is gen.
orally fatal without the most skillful
attention. The natives in their
ignorance seek only to be left to die
In peace. The ancient traditions of the
country are extremely difficult, almost
impossible, to eradicate"

Yours very truly, W. NJ. Lord.
1t will be noticed that the governor
says he has not had occasion to use Pc
ru-na for other ailments. The reason
for this is, most other ailments begin
with a cold. Using Pe-ru-na to
promptly cure colds, he protects his
family against other ailments. This is

United States should do. Keep Pc

The outdoor laborer, the indoor arti-

Catarrh is well nigh universal; almost
omnipresent. Pe-ru-na is the only abb

beginning of catarrh. To prevent
colds, to cure colds, is to cheat catrarh
out of its victims. Pe-ru-na not only
cures catarrh, but prevents. Every
household should be supplied with this

I want to enter a strong plea for the

disadvantage of the present system was

murder. This woman was, believe from
the evidence produced at the trial, guilty
Of the crime which was brought against
her. Nevertheless because she had the

Charging Women Less than Men.

At the old-fashioned inns and res
taurants in Sweden it is customary to
charge less for women than for men on
the theory that they do not eat SO
much. At some hotels In Sweden a
man and a wife are charged as one
and one-half persons If they occupy the
same room. A husband and wife may
travel as one and one-half persons by
railway. and also by the post routes,
furnishing their own carriage.
