The -Four TRACK News.

There is much of education and enlight-
eminent in the dainty little monthly maya
zine, The Four-Track News, which comes
to us from the editorial workshops OF the
Central & Hudson River Railroad Company.
Its pages are iilled with interesting matter
regarding, travel, our expanding commerce,
and the development of our transportation
facilities. The January number is devoted
largely to California, the idea of the editor
being to give special attention each month
to that portion of the world TO which people
are at the time travelling. The leading ar
ticle on this subject is The Land of the
s; inset Sea- written by Luther l.. Holden.
Other interesting features are Egypt Then
and Now" by George FADE; THE Ro
nance of Reality" by Jane W. Guthrie; a
sketch of Hudson, New. York, by H. R.
Bryan, and much that is entertaining in
verse and well-edited departments. There
are also valuable contributions on the cul-
tivation of prunes, olives, grain and sugar
beets. 80 cents per year, 5 cents per copy.

IS DIABETES CURABLE7

Halo, Ind, Jan. 27th.-In answer,
Mrs. L. C. Bowers of this place has this
to say:
81 had Kidney Trouble which, neg
lected, finally ran into Diabetes; my
teeth all got loose and part of them
came out; passed from one-and-a-half
to two gallons of water in twenty
four hours, and such burning sepsa-
ton attended it that l could hardly
bear it. COST forty pounds in flesh
and was very much discouraged.
1.-TWO doctors treated me and took
every Kidney Medicine I could hear of,
but got no relief whatever from any
thing till I began to use Dodd's Kidney
Pills.
Seven boxes of this remedy drove
away every symptom I have men
toned.

DOMESTIC REFORM.
The Man Became = Useless Member
and the Woman Had Her Work
fOr Nothing.

Once upon time there was wom-
an who married man to reform
him.
And she did, says the Baltimore
American.
She made him quit his evil ways,
and he did not drink, nor chew, nor
smoke, nor swear, nor stay out at
nights.
In fact, he became as mild as skim
milk.
Now when this result was achieved
the woman began to worry. He had
lost his charm for her. She discov-
cred that she had been more inter
ested in his faults than in his vir-
tues, because after she had PANIED
him out he didn't assay worth a
cent along the line of good qualities.
He was simply negative equation.
But the man had some sense, after
all. He saw what was bothering her,
so he swore just little, and drank
just little, and smoked occasional
~, and took chew on the sly.
Then she had the fun of reforming
him all over again. And she was
perfectly happy, because she could
point with pride to him at regular in
tervals.
Moral-A little backsliding adds to
the interest of the good work.

81 have always been a very healthy
man, but of course subject to the lit
tie affections which are due to sudden
changes in the climate and tempera-
ture. During my long life have known
a great many remedies for coughs,
colds and diarrhoea.
Il had always supposed these affec-
tions to be different diseases. For the
last ten or fifteen years have been
reading DR.. Hartman s writings. l have
learned much from his books, onething
in particular: that these affections
are the same and that they are proper
" called catarrh.
GAS for DR.. Harfman'S remedy,
Pe-ru-na, 1 have found it TO be the
best, if not the only, reliable REM
edy for these affections. 1t has
been my standby for many years,
and / attribute my good health and
extreme old age TO this remedy.

effects of sudden changes; it keeps me
in good appetite; it gives me strength;
it keeps my blood in good circulation.
have come to rely upon it almost en-
tirely for the many little things for
which I need medicine.
81 believe it to be valuable to old
people, although I have no doubt it is
just as good for the young. I should be
glad if my sincere testimony should
become the means of others using this,
remedy, because I believe it to be the.
greatest remedy of this age for ca
tarrhal diseases.
''When epidemics of Ia grippe first
began to make their appearance in this
country was a sufferer from this dis
ease.
81 had several long sieges with
the grip. AT first did not know
that Pe=ru-na was a remedy for
this disease. When I heard that
Ia grippe was epidemic Catsrrh, I
tried Pe-ru-na for Ia grippe and
found it to be Just the thing.
SIT has saved me several times from
a siege of the grip. I feel perfectly
safe from this terrible malady SO long
as have Peruna a hand. I hope that
DR.. Hartman may live to be as old as
am, to continue the good work of
teaching people the value of his great
remedy, Peruna.

change it for the whole of Lake county,

"Of course [ have not been here
very long, but as much of the country
as [ have seen, it cannot be beat any
where. We had as good crops here last
fall as ever saw, and everything gets
ripe in good shape. We had as good
ripe potatoes as I ever ate in my life.
There is no better place for stock on
the continent than here. Horses and
cattle will do as good running out all
: winter here, as they do where they are
fed all winter there. Have built me a
residence and now all I want is wife
to keep house for me. I have some
breaking already done on.my place, but
next summer I intend to have more
done and then will be ready for bust
ness.

far. It has not been much below zero,

Find Your Place and Fiji 1t.

1t is a sad parody on life to see
a man earning his living by a voca-
ton which has never received his APP
proval. 1t is pitiable to see a youth,
with the image of power and destiny
stamped upon him, trying to support
himself in a mean, contemplate oc-
cupation, which dwarfs his nature,
and makes him despise himself; an
occupation which is constantly con-
demning him, ostracizing him from
all that is best and truest in life Dig
trenches, shovel coal, carry a bod; do
anything rather than sacrifice your
self-respect, blunt your sense of right
and wrong, and shut yourself off for
ever from the true joy of living,
which comes from the consciousness
of doing ones best.-Success.
