EFFECTS OF VIBRATION.
Wounds Have Heen Healed by SOUND
Waves of a Violin.

waves OA q Violin.
A man was conveyed to a hospital
in Paris suffering from an accident
which resulted In n serious wound.
This wound refused to heal. and all
the various treatments applied to ii
failed to effect the desired end The
man was attacked from time to time
by violent paroxysms, and death Ap-
peared certain. AT length the surgeon
enlisted the services OF good violin
player and treated the sufferer to a
musical remedy. The patients parox-
ysms ceased, and from that time the
wound began to heal. The violin play
ing was continued at intervals till re-
covery was assured.
In another case the wound continued
to suppurate despite all that could be
done. The patient was calm and re
signed. but nothing could be done for
the wound. The violin was called into
requisition in this instance also, and
the instrument was played close to the
injured part. which was barred for the
purpose. The surgeon soon observed
change. The wound assumed a
healthier appearance, and the process
Of healing began and progressed rap

1t Is an undoubted fact that certain
vibrations can effect cures. but the vi
brations must be strictly In accord

wound. Some enthusiasts go so far as
to assert that the character of individ-

A Venerable Wisconsin Lady Re
stored to Health by Peruna
After Twenty-Five Years
Suffering.
Especial news from Evansville, Wis.,

VILE, VISA woman
cured of catarrh of twenty-five years
standing was the occasion of Peruna be-
ing introduced to the inhabitants of
Evansville, Wis. From that time to this
there has been great demand for Pc
runa in this vicinity and hundreds of
cases have been cured.
1t is in this manner that Peruna
spreads from town to town and from
state to state. No sort of advertising
could have given Peruna the reputation
it has. The secret of its success is that
it makes cures. 1t cures old cases of
catarrh where other remedies have
failed. This ought to make any remedy
popular.

az hope to live twenty years yet, and
if Peruna helps me in the future as il
has in the past, l don't know why I
can't. The druggists say Peruna is one
of the best selling medicines they have
in stock. &C. II. HARDEN.
Peruna can be relied upon to cure
slight colds and coughs and other ca
tarrhal ailments with a promptness that
is unequaled by any other remedy.
If cold has settled in any portion of
the body and produced catarrh, it is gen.
orally thought by people that they must
suffer on year after year without any
hope of cure. This is not true, however,
Peruna cures such cases. Thousands Of
testimonials that can never be used
attest this fact.

this subject should address DR.. Hartman,

But the atmosphere of the sen

ceptab1y of late, and from pres
ent indications the contest will
not be long one, nor likely to
interfere materially with legls'a-
ton. This is a matter of c. II
gratul .tion TO the state \ I, "
months ago long and bitter
contest seemed inevitable. There
were numerous candidates, none
of whom had sufficient votes to
elect, bat all apparently equally
determined in their ambitions,
Gradually these have become
eliminated, until at present but
one seriously.regarded aspirant
remains. Editor Scott of the
Oregonian has stated positively
that he will not enter the contest,
and as proof of his sincerity is
spending the winter in Europe.
Jonathan Bourne will probably
pull some democratic votes,
but it is difficult to see where
the necessary republican support
will come from. There were
others still, a few months ago,
with aspirations and followings,
but now there SEEMS to be very
little talk Of any other candidate
than Mr.. Fulton, of Astoria
BY virtue of circumstances aud
the Mays bill. Governor Geer' S
candidacy has attracted some at
tention, but his ambition is not
regarded seriously.
Mr.. Fulton has back of him a
host of friends, many of whom
are the strongest and most infu-
entail members of the legisla-
ture, and at their solicitation he
has been an avowed candidate fo1
more than year. He has
recognized ability aud capac-
ity, and the work he has done
for the party placed him i'll line
for the election some years ago.
His popularity makes his candl'
dacy meet with general tavor.
The prospect then of the elec
ton of senator without pro-
longed and bitter contest is
matter of congratulation to the
general public, especially wher
the man, upon whose shoulder:
the toga in all probability will
fall, will reflect credit upon the
state in the halls of congress.

MATTERS OF GENERALIZATION.

The announcement that there
is to be no special session of the
legislature this year comes as a
relief to taxpayers. The regular
session promises to be All expen-
sive one, and an extra session
would have added materially to
the burden Of those who pay the
bills. There was nothing to
warrant the holding of a special
session, and the GAZETTE has
opposed the scheme ever since it
was first proposed.
AS was pointed out in these
columns a few weeks ago, the
election of a senator at the spec
ial session would, possibly, have
borne good results. The senate
rial question with its complica-
tions would have been eliminated
from the regular session, and the
legislature have been free to ex-
ercise its more Important func-
ton of legislation. But it is a
singular fact that this, the only
meritorious feature OF the spec
ial session proposition, was
in all probability the cause
of its not being a stern reality
