Pe-ru-na is known from the Atlantic
to the Pacific. Letters of congratula-
ton andcommendation testifying to the
merits of Pe-ruua as catarrh remedy
are pouring in from every State in the
Union. DIR. Hartman is receiving hun
dreds OF such letters daily. All classes
write these letters, from the highest to
the lowest.
The outdoor laborer, the indoor arti-
san, the clerk, the editor, the statesman,
the preacher-all agree that Pe-ru-na is
the catarrh remedy of the age The
stage and rostrum, recognizing catarrh
as their greatest enemy, are especially
enthusiastic in their praise and testi-
mony.
Any man who wishes perfect health
must be entirely free from catarrh. Ca
tarrh is well-nigh universal; almost ON
nipresent. Pe-ru-na is the only abso-
lutte safeguard known. A cold is the
beginning of catarrh. To prevent colds,
to cure colds, is to cheat catarrh out of
its victims. Pe-ru-na not only cures ca
tarrh, but prevents. Every household
should be supplied with this great rem.
edy for coughs, colds and so forth.

SKILL in TAKING cHAMeLeoNs.
Care Needed In Handling These Dell.
cate Creatures.

Catching chameleons is a rather
delicate business" said man who has
had much experience In the business,
land comparatively few persons know
anything about It. The chameleon is
so delicate that crushing and mutila-
ton is a matter of much ease. They
are also very tender. and when an ef-
fort is made to catch them they are
very apt to break their tails of in a
struggle to get away. Men Of expert
ence in the business are careful to
avoid this. but persons who are un-
trained in chameleon catching will, in
nine cases out OF ten, mutilate the lit
tie creatures in this way. The tails
are long and slender. tapering some
times almost to the fineness of a
thread. and the least violence will
break them. However, there is one
advantage in this connection. The
tails remake very rapidly, and while
they never grow quite to their original
length. and they are never quite so
beautifully tapered. the growth at
least restores part of the chame-
Icons symmetry"

CLAIMS TO RESTORE LIFE
Scientist Has = Powder That Brings
Dead Animals to Life.

DR.. c. w. Littlefeld of Alexandria,
who for fifteen years has been pursu-
ing his Investigations OF the vital
principles Of life. experimenting with
cats. dogs. monkeys and other lower
animals. has at last made known the
result OF his work. He makes the as
sertion that he can restore life. He
asserts that the principle of life, in
substance. is volatile magnetism.
In demonstrating his theory, the
doctor employs a solution of saline
origin, with salt as the basis, saturat-
ed with oleo resin and exposed for
several hours to an atmosphere of
free ammonia. Having secured this
saline solution, DIR. Littiefield reduces
it to powder. 1t is this powder that
he has employed throughout his long
course of experiments.
For instance. having put to death
dog or cat by drowning and allowed
the corpse to remain long enough to
| convince anyone following his inyes-
legations that all life is extinct, Dir.
| Littlef1eld takes the corpse and with
out preparation of any kind, places
it Upon heated stone or porcelain
plate, brought to a temperature cor
responding to that of the normal body,
and covers 1t thoroughly with light
| layer of the powder
| Within three or four minutes from
the time the powder has been coated
over the dead body signs Of life man
| ifest themselves, and within fifteen
minutes after the resuscitating meth
DDS were begun in every instance, the
subject has returned to normal life.
A cat remained dead two hours, and
during this time was allowed to re-
main in the hot SUP until rigor mortis
had set in. The corpse was then
placed upon the heated porcelain and
powder applied, and the animal re-
turned to consciousness within five
minutes.
The magnetic influence can easily
be seen by placing drop Of the liquid
with minute particles of solid SUBJ
stance in it under a microscope. The
particles can be seen flying back and
forth with indescribable energy and
| life.

How American cities Grow.

The calendar year 1901. according
to recent report of the United States
geological survey, was the greatest in
the history Of the country in city
building. Forty-two cities submitted
reports to the department in re-
sponse to inquiries. and these showed
that the total number of permits
issued in those cities was s5,571. as
against 68,417 for 1900, gain of IT,

A Story of RootIaek Days.

A well-known lawyer and writer, a
resident of Oneida county, N. Y, who
has long since passed away, used to
tell joks on himself. His story was
to the effect that he called for boot
jack at country hotel at which he
stopped. Now. this lawyer and writer
had very large feet. and the hostler to
whom he made the request, after cast
ing glance at the big boots, ex-

Clock Golf,

In clock golf circle is drawn as
large as the field will permit. Then
on the inside of this circle the figures
from l to IL are indicated equidistant
from each other, as on the disl of a
clock. hole is placed near the GEN.
ter of the circle. but not entirely so.
The point Of the game is to put the
ball from the figures on the circle
to the center hole in the fewest num-
ber of strokes. The play begins at 1
to the hole, and from the hole to 2.
and proceeds thus until the ball Is
driven from 12 to the center hole.
This player going the rounds in the
lesser number of strokes wins the
game. Among golf players the game
is considered merely practice in put
ting.

ter to DIR. Hartman he says:

The Pe-ru-nn Medicine Co, Columbus, O..
Dear Sirs-I have had occasion to use
your Pe-ru-na medicine in my family
for colds, and it proved to be an excsl-
lent remedy. l have not had occasion
to use it for other ailments.
Yours very truly, w. NJ. Lord.
It will be noticed that the Governor
says he has not had occasion to use Pc
ru-na for other ailments The ereason for
this is, most other ailments begin with .
cold. Using Pe-ru-na to promptly cure
colds, he protects his family against 9TH
er ailments. Thisi exactly what every
other family in the United States should
do. Keep Pe-ru-na in the house. Use IL
for coughs, colds, la grippe, and other
climatic affections of winter, and there
will be no other ailments in the house.
Such families should provide themselves
with a copy of DIR. Hartman's free book,
entitled "Winter Catarrh." Address

NEGROES GROW RICH FAST.
Many Of Those Living In the Creek
Nation Are Weil-to-Do.

1t is not in the South that the richest
negroes are found, although many in
that region have amassed a goodly
store of property since the war. Doubt
less the wealthiest community of col
ored people in the world is found
among the Creek Indians in Indian ter
ritory. There are about 1000 of them,
and they are worth on an average of
81. 900 each. The wealth of the more
industrious foots up even higher, GER
tain individuals being the owners of
from $4,000 to $4,000 worth OF land
each. =, IA ID
These negroes are the descendants
of slaves of the Creek tribe of Indians
and are known as Creek negroes. They
are entitled to share in the division
of Creek Indian lands; also part of
the trust funds. Together the 1000 ne
groes own 22,000,000 acres of land. And
yet their education is far from COM
plete. Their social environments are
crude in the extreme and progress goes
slowly amid their huts and fields.
Unlike the other Indians of the rich
five civilized tribes, the Creeks insisted
upon freeing their slaves to give them
an equal share in their lands and mon
ey. At that time there were few slaves,
but the number grew through descend
ants. until now fully 1000 have laid
successful claim to head right" on
! the Creek rolls of citizenship. They
have their own representatives in the
Creek Indian Legislature. their own
schools and their own churches. Ev-
erything bids fair to make them snod-

No Smoking at Funerals.

Up-to-date undertakers now insist
upon drivers refraining from smoking
while engaged in the procession to

ers on hearse and carriages frequently
had steam up" in cigarette. pipe or
cigar after the cortege got under way
from the house of mourning. OF
OF course employees of funeral direct
ors catering to "high-class trade"

x.Ray In Dentistry.

The X-ray is being used in dentistry
with considerable success. 1t some
times happens that the permanent or
second" teeth are not properly cut.
The mouth is thus disf1gured by the
loss of the first set of teeth and the
non-appearance of the second teeth.
With the X-ray the dentist can deter
mine whether the second tooth is in
the gum, and II so. why it has not ap-
peared. The obstruction Is removed,
a passage opened and the tooth works
gradually down to its place.

A QUEER MARRIAGE CONTRACT.
Mohammedan Makes Liberal conees-
slons to His Wife,


slons to His Wife.
Of all the deeds registered in India
last year in connection with matri.
moniai differences. perhaps the most
curious was one fled at Bengal. The
document had been executed by a
Mohammedan. Chaudina. in the dis
trict OF Tippera- The deed was one in
favor Of the testator's wife, and its
conditions were as follows.
Il. II the husband remains sepa-
rate for period of six months from
his wife without her consent the
marriage will be dissolved 2. The
wife may go to her father or to the
house Of her relatives at her pleasure; !;
any sort Of interference or control
on the part of her husband will be
crime equivalent 10 that of impris.
onment. and punishable under the
Indian Penal Code. 3. The husband
will have no control over the children
that have been born or may be born
to her. 4. The wife is at liberty to
divorce the husband as soon as he
violates any of the conditions of the

BUBBLE BLOWING FOR HEALTH
Beauty Seekers Also Advised to Try
the Exercise


The latest suggestion for acquiring
health and beauty is to practice bubble
blowing with clay pipe. 1t is claimed
that. If woman will adhere to the
practice for reasonable length Of
time. she will find her cheeks have be-
come plump and the contour of her
neck decidedly improved. Blowing
bubbles is a similar operation to the
deep breathing exercises now so high
ly recommended, and the searcher
after exercise and beauty must blow
as large a bubble as she can while
seated. blowing slowly and gradually
for fear of bursting the bubble. After
a few minutes the exercise is repeated
standing.
Then she lies fiat on her back on
the floor, with chin as high as pos
sible, and blows as long as she can,
the first bubble slowly, and then as
rapidly as possible.

A flexible metal. hose is made at
Phorzheim. Germany, by rolling up a
metal band like a screw thread, the
joints being made tight by cord of
rubber on asbestos. The material is
galvanized steel or phosphor bronze.
The hose is very flexible. Its tend
ency to untwist when roughly handled
is overcome by making it double, with
opposite windings. 1t is intended for
mining purposes, is eight inches in
diameter and will stand a pressure of

A Carthage merchant is displaying
in one of his show windows an eagle
which was shot by local nimrod
while it was trying to steal pig. Burr
Ozment and friend were hunting
near Carthage. when they heard pig
sQuealing in a tree top. Looking up.
they saw that the pig was fast in the
talons of powerful eagle, which was
sitting among the branches above
them. Ozment stationed himself near
a strawstack. while his friend went
nearer the tree. The eagle became
scared and flew over Ozment's head.
He discharged both barrels of his
shotgun at 1t. When 1t came to the
ground it was SO badly riddled with
shot that it could hardly be mounted.

der with the corner Of her long neck


When she got home she found that
her key wasn't with her. Her mother
was away, and there wasn't a ghost of
q show for housebreaking. The girl
dug her fingers into her front locks.
called herself names for minute. and
remembered that she had a dinner en-
gagement. She went, feeling like a
trump because she couldn't powder her
nose and put on fresh stock A time
table which was in her chatelaine
didn't help her out any. Other trou-
bles arose, which shall not be accounted
here, because the narrative must not
be too sad, dear reader. She got
through dinner, and when it came
time to go home she stood VITA fumb-
ling fingers and embarrassed eyes and
finally suffered out point blank that
she had no place to so. Her friends
laughed, offered her a place to sleep,
and she put in miserable night be-
cause she hadn't her own jar of cold
cream handy, and was busy thinking
that she'd need fresh shirt waist in
the morning. Next day.she wandered
down town, and when she got hold of
that chatelaine bag she absolutely
kissed it-gave it long, fine, time
exposure kiss - and made a solemn
VOW tnat she and her chatelaine would
part never again. = Chicago Record

Filtering Sewage.

A plan OF filtering and purifying
sewage has been Installed in Milton,
Mass, for which claims are made
which will not commend it to the favor
Of the fastidious, at least. Sewage
flowing from the houses Of the village
through the public sewers is caused
to pass through system of filters and
aerating tanks, land is finally pumped
out clear, odorless, tasteless drinking
water"
Perhaps. That the people in charge
of the plant have used the filtrate for
drinking purposes is probably true
enough, but that it is desirable drink
ing water may be questioned, and it
seems much like abusing public conf
dence to encourage visitors to venture
experiments of this character. A great
deal of water which is coloriess, odor-
less and tasteless, is wholly unfit for
drinking purposes, and one who In
duces an ignorant person to drink it
needlessly assumes a responsibility
which may lead to unfortunate conse-
Quences.
1t is not necessary, as an argument
in favor Of a system of sewage filtra-
ton and meteorological publication.
that the efiuent should be offered the
public as a beverage. The claim is
probably unfounded that such water
| is harmless, unless nature has had
| time to purify it by distillation.

fast in the ice some distance further
north and many miles rom land. The
explorers went north in siedges, and
reached the most Iortherly point at
