Thinks This Country Ahead Of Europe.

President Naftzser Of the Fourth Ma
tional Bank of this city thinks that few
people here have any conception Of how
far this country is ahead Of continental
Europe in the matter OF banking.
He was talking to some friends the
other day about the Spanish-American
war and the superiority of the American
navy. He said this country was Just as
far ahead of Europe in banking as it was
ahead of Spain in war ships.
It was no little surprise 10 him when he
learned that even in Paris the business
men do not know very much about bank
ing They do not deposit their money
in the bank and check against Il as they
do here
In Paris he said when a merchant came
TO the bank TO borrow money he put in
his securities and took the money away
with him and when the note became due
the bank sent a collector with the notes
In leather bag. He would give tho mer-
chant the note and put the money in q
leather bag and carry it back TO the bank.
Sometimes the bank of France employs
more than three hundred of these col
lectors
When asked why the bankers in Europe
did not adopt the American system Mr..
Naftzger said the bankers understood it
al right. but the trouble was TO educate
the people TO it. They are running along
IN the same old way they were when
this country consisted Of thirteen colonies

 Each one of these troubles and great many more are simply catarrh-that is, chronic inflammation of the mucous lining of whichever organ is affected. Any internal remedy that will cure ca tarrh in one location will cure it in any other. This is why Peruna has be- come so justly famous in the cure of female diseases. It cures catarrh wherever located. It's cures remain, Peruna does not palliate-it cures.

Fruit Train Wrecked.

A fast fruit train on the Iron Noun tain railroad, consisting of fourteen cars of fruit from Texas points, was wrecked at Sprudel, about twenty miles north of Texarkana. The train was made up entirely of refrigerator cars and was running on passenger time when the wreck occurred. The entire fourteen cars left the track and were piled up across and beside the right-of-way in an indiscriminate heap. Fortunately no lives were lost. but a large quantity of good fruit was ruined. which will probably cost the railroad quite sum.
