THE FIRST WOMAN.
An Old Eastern Legend That Tells
How She Was Created.

An Old Eastern Legend That Tells
How She Was Created.
The last section "Of a Finger Of the
Moon Reddened by the Setting Sun" in
the Sanscrit work called the 'Surging
of the Ocean of Time" contains legend
concerning woman's creation which is
commonly credited throughout India,
and which runs somewhat as follows:
At the beginning Of time, Twashtri, the
Vulcan of Hindoo mythology, created
the world. But when he wished to
create a woman he found he had en-
ployed all his materials in the creation
of man. There did not remain one
solid element. Then Twashtri, per-
picked, fell into profound meditation.
He reused himself TO do as follows:
He took the lightness of the leaf and
the glance of the fawn, the gayety Of
the suns rays and tears Of the mist,
the Inconsistency of the wind, and the
timidity of the hare, the vanity OF the
peacock and the softness of the down
on the throat of the swallow, the
harshness of the diamond, the sweet
flavor of honey, the cruelty Of the tiger,
the warmth Of fire, the chill Of snow,
the chatter Of the jay and the cooling
Of the turtle dove He melted all this
and formed woman. Then he made
a present of her to man. Eight days
later the man came to Twashtri and
said:
my lord, the creature you gave me
poisons my existence. She chatters
without rest, she takes all my time,
she laments for nothing at all and is al
ways ILL.," And Twashtri received the
woman again. But eight days later the
man came again to the god and said:
"My lord, my life is very solitary
since I returned this creature. I re-
member she danced before my singing.
1 recall how she glanced at me from
the corner of her eye, that she played
with me, clung to me-" And Twashtri
returned the woman to him. Three
days only passed and Twashtri saw the
man coming to him again.
my lord" said he, Il do not under
stand exactly how, but I'm sure the
woman causes me more annoyance
than pleasure. I beg Of you relieve me
of her"
But Twashtri cried, "Go your way
and do your best!"
And the man cried, 81 cannot live
with herw
Neither can you live without her."
replied Twashtri.
And the man went sorrowfully away,
murmuring, Woe is me; l can neither
live with her nor without her."-Col-
ier's Weekly.

Sure Of Applause.

That the theatrical claque is.not con-
fined to playhouses was demonstrated
beyond all shadow of doubt to the
teacher who was drilling the pupils for
the exercises in one of the public
schools.
The unresponsive bit Of femininity
over whom the amateur coach work
ed rejoiced in the name Of Sarah.
When Sarah began to talk, all her
vocal organs took joyful holiday and
retired in favor of her nose. In vain
the teacher begged and implored.
Sarah still clung to her monotone.
Then the teacher threatened.
Sarah" she said. IF you don't try
to do better you will fail utterly. and
then how will you feel?"
"Oh. they'll applaud me, Miss
Brown" returned Sarah easily. my
mother is goin' to give my little BROTH
er Andy 10 cents, and if he don't begin
clappin' the minute sit down he's
goin' to be strapped within an inch of
his life."-New York Times.

FRUITS AND FLOWERS.

In planting the orchard care should
be taken to allow each tree plenty Of
room.
A layer of charcoal in the bottom Of
flower bed is very beneficial in keep
ing the soil fresh.
In plowing in the orchard always
turn the furrow toward the tree. and
be careful not to injure the fine, tibrous
roots.
The life Of an apple tree is often
shortened because it grows in poor,
exhausted soil or one not properly
drained.
When i'll or ailing, handle the flowers
little or wear gloves. Delicate plants
are sensitive to human magnetism,
good or bad.
The roots of the strawberry often
reach out five feet from the main
stem: hence the plants should not be
set too thickly.
An apple or cherry tree Is much
more valuable If it shoots out low.
Trim from the top. as this will cause
the lower branches to grow out.
Land that has been too rough for
plowing may yet be sufficiently fertile
to grow fruit trees and is better than
land that has been exhausted by crop

A Measure Of Distance.

A northern sportsman went alligator
hunting in Florida. and, as often hap
pens with the uninitiated, he got lost.
1t was near night, and be was at loss
what to do. Presently he met man
riding a cow, says the Indianapolis
Journal.
"Can you tell me how far it is to
Miami?'
"Waal, I reckon It's about two
whoops," the man answered.
"Two-what"
The man seemed to take this as chal
longing his veracity. for he looked
questioningly at the palmettos and
prickly pears beside the path, then be-
gan to scratch his head.
"P'r'aps hit may be a smitch fur
der" he admitted, ''but low hit amt

SISTERS OF CHARITY
All Over the United States Use
Pe-ru-na for Catarrh,

DR.. Hartman receives many letters
from Catholic Sisters all over the United
States. A recommend recently re-
ceived from Catholic institution in the
Southwest reads as follows:
A Prominent Mother Superior Says:
"I can testify from experience to the
efficiency Of Peruna as one of the very
best medicines, and it gives me pleasure
to add my praise to that Of thousands
who have used it. For years I suffered
with catarrh Of the stomach, all rene
dies proving valueless for relief. Last
spring went to Colorado, hoping to be
benefited by a change Of climate and
while there a friend advised me to try
Peruna. After using two bottles found
myself very much improved. The re-,
mains Of my old disease being now so
slight, I consider myself cured, yet for
while I intend to continue the use OF
Peruna. I am now treating another
patient with your medicine. She has
been sick with malaria and troubled
with leucorrhea. have not doubt
that cure will be speedily effected"
These are samples ofIetters received
by DR.. Hartman from the various
orders of Catholic Sisters throughout
the United States.
The names and addresses to these let
ters have been withheld from respect
to the Sisters but will be furnished upon
request.
One-ha1f Of the diseases which aff1ict
mankind are due to some catarrhal de-
rangement of the mucous membrane
lining some organ or passage Of the
body.
A remedy that would act Immediately
upon the congested mucous membrane
restoring it to it's normal state, would
consequently cure all these diseases.
Catarrh is catarrh wherever located,
whether it be in the head, tt Jat, lungs,
stomach, kidneys, or pelvic organs. al
remedy that will cure it in one location
will cure it in all locations.
If you do notreceive prompt and salts
factory results from the use Of Peruna,Y
write at once to DR.. Hartman, giving al
full statement of your case, and he will
be pleased to give you his valuable ad- !
vice gratis.

notions, clothing and millinery en-
bracing all that is needed in wearing
apparel for man, woman and child,
which he is offering cheaper than the
cheapest at retail and cheaper still at
wholesale. In his stores the con-
sumer can find first class goods at
second class prices and in his whole
sale department. the country mer-
chaas can find we'll selected stock
from which to fill his shelves at such
low prices as will enable him to sell
