edy."-Mrs. Mary Cook.
Congressman II. Henry Powers of
Vermont, writes from MorrisvIIIe, VI:
"Peruna I have used In my family
with success. can recommend II as
an excellent family remedy, and very
good for coughs, colds and catarrhal
affections. "---H. Henry Powers.
Hon. John II. Gear, United States
Senator from Iowa, writes:
"Peruna / can recommend to all as
very good tonic, and particularly good
as a remedy for catarrh."-JohnH II. Gear.
Senator Gears home address is Bur-
lington, Iowa.
Mr.. o. Fisher, 1861 Lexington avenue,
New York City, writes:
az had catarrh and was troubled with
a constant dropping from the back part
of the nose into the throat, and hor-
rible breath. Also severe hoarseness
and elbow discharge from the nose; but
1 haven't the slightest trouble now of
those complaints, and I honestly and
conscientiously state that am cured Of
catarrh of the nose and threat.
"If there is anyway can state it more
positively I am only too glad to do so,
and am willing, very willing, to lend
any aid in my power in helping you to
induce sufferers to give Peruna q trial.
my wife Is also taking Peruna, and
1t Is helping her wonderfully. She has
improved considerably since taking
Peruna. She feels fifty per cent better
than she has in years, for all of which
am very thankful, as she was extremely
nervous, had systemic catarrh, and thin
blood."--O. Fisher.
If you do not derive prompt and satis-
factory results from the use Of Peruna,
write at once to DR.. Hartman, giving
full statement of your case and he will
be pleased to give you his valuable ad-
vice gratis.

ForakerKurtz man take it, and thus
offset the attempt to bluff that is sure
to be mad3 by the Hanna clans before
the week Is much older. 1t is an old
political trick to get the odds On ono
candidate, so as to boost him with the
fellows.
WHERE TAYLER COMES IN.
Senator Connell, of Columbiana, is a
McKinnon man. Representative Buell.
is also put down on that side OF the
contention. This is blamed on Con-
gressman Tayler, who is accused of be-
ing more active than the present fight
warrants.
1t is no longer whispered, but nov
openly asserted, that Congressman Tay-
ler knows that it would help him in his
candidacy for governor IL he could aid
McKinnon in the organization of the
house and still keep good friends with
Price. He would have plain sailing.
Dick cannot get all of the Hanna forces
two years hence, and, besides, Hanna
will have his own affairs to look after
by that time, and cannot aid him. SO
by playing both ends to tho middle
Congressman Tayler is getting him
self in line for a fall out of Dick that
will shake the G. o. p. to a greater ex-
tent than the present fight is doing.
MALLOY is SATISFIED.
John r. Malloy, one of the Hanna
managers, said to your correspondent
Monday night: 1--WE are giving out no
statements, but you may say am sat
isfied that McKinnon will be the next
speaker of the house. | am making
no claims about majorities and do not
need to. He will win because he has
the votes"
An attempt is being made to make
Governor Nash show his hand and he
has begun to do so in quiet way.
Several state house employees, who are
engaged in offices, the appointment of
whose chiefs is at the governors dit
posal, were doing special duty Monday
and will continue to do it during the
week, in relays, as they can be spared
from their duties.
LAYLIN FOR M'KINNON.
Secretary of State Laylin makes no
particular effort to conceal his move
ments. He is for McKinnon and that
is all he says about it.
The Kurtz people, from Price head
quarters, make the same claims they
did Saturday. They say they got some
important acquisitions after Malloy had
made his statement that McKinnoE
was certain winner, and point with
some elation to the punctures in the
Malloy list, one of the distinguished
holes in the Hanna tire having been
left by Representative Pollock, when
he pulled himself out and inciden-
tally slapped Senator Patterson's'
mouth.

1t seems impossible now for him to

By saving the mucus it enriches the

By cleansing the mucous membranes
it preserves the vital forces.
A constant drain of mucus from the

Lace Makers of PARAGUAY.

Making lace by hand is a we'll ca.
veloped art in Paraguay. 1t was taught
the natives 200 years ago by the mis-
sionaries and has been transmitted
from generation to generation, till it
is now quite general throughout the
republic. Some towns are devoted to
making certain kind of lace. In one
town of 5000 or 5000 inhabitants al
most all the women and children and
many of the men make lace collar
cites, handkerchiefs and ladies' ties.
Another town makes lace embroidery
and others drawn-thread work, such
as center pieces, tray mats, tea cloths
and doilies. The designs used in max
ing the lace are taken from the curl
Gus webs of the semi-tropical spiders
that are so numerous there. On this
account it is called 'nanduti," an In.
dian name which means spider web.
