This is n very common sight and is
almost always due TO pelvic catarrh.
1t is worse than foolish for so many
women to suffer year after year with q
disease that can be permanently cured.
Peruna cures catarrh permanently.
1t cures old chronic cases as well IA n,
slight attack, the only difference being
in the length of time that 1t should be
taken To effect cure.
IL you do not derive prompt and satis-
factory results from the use of Peruna.

full statement OF your case, and he will

Names Forest Flames Brings Mira.
michi Blaze to Mind.
The widespread devastation of
Names forests by fire has recalled
to the minds of the older lumbermen
the great Miramichi fire which ragged
over vast areas of Maine and New
Brunswick in the year 1927, says the
Philadelphia Record. 1t started on
the headwaters of the Miramichi river
In New Brunswick, from where 1t
swept across the country to the south
ernmost limits of Aroostook County
in Maine, devastating a tract 200 miles
long and fifty miles wide.
The summer of 1927 has always been
known in this region as the dry sum
mer." No rain fell In May or June
Of that year, and in July only a few
slight showers, so that when August
opened the woods and fields needed
but spark to set them all aflame.
Fairly in August the fire started on the
headwaters of the Mira michi and for
six weeks it ragged, tornado of flame
and smoke.
1t was In that same year that what
Is referred to as Names great 'offi-
cial bonfire" occurred In Mount Chase.
The State land agent sent a man nam
ed Jim Chase up to the Haybrook re-
gion to burn the hay and grain stacks
Of some timber thieves. jim burned
better or more than he had dreamed
Of, or the State intended, for the fire
ragged away through the forest like a
Whirlw1nd, laying a dozen townships
in ashes and sending the wild beasts
in stampede of terror for the nearest
water.
Destructive as 1t was, however. this
furious fire kindled by jim Chase at
the instance of the State Of Maine did
more good than harm, for 1t stopped
the Miramichi fire and thus prevented
far greater destruction. Burning to-
ward each other, the two fires met,
and thus each put stop to the other.
Thousands of deer, moose and other
animals were burned alive or smoth-
cred in the Mira michi fire, while vast
numbers Of wolves, which were at that
time terror in northern Maine, were
driven out to the frontier settlements
along the st. John, where they were
slaughtered by the Acadian French.
The Indians who lived along the Mira
michi were driven from their homes
and fed through the forests to the
nearest settlements, where they were
kindly received, and few OF them or
their descendants have ever returned
to their original haunts.

WHISPER OF THE CORN.

Have you lain beneath the cottonwood
and drunk the charmed air
In some quiet country corner on a
grand, fresh August morn,
While the tinkle OF the distant bells
made mellow music rare--
And heard the tall sheaths stirring in
the whisper of the corn2
Have you felt the inspiration of the
meadow lark's clear note
AS 1t flung care free anthem from
some height beyond our bourne,
While the rudy god, Olympus, set his
million beams afioat,
Till we almost saw the spirits as they
whispered in the corn7
Did you ever in the great world have a
dream so sweet and pure,
Such a vision in the cloudland with not
one dark dread forlorn--
Where the future wRs all glowing, like
the sunrise on the moor,
And your blood ran fast with fancy at
the whisper of the corn?
We can well-nigh see the landscape of
the days of long ago,
Wondrous near the quaint old farm
house and our hopes that met no
scorn--
Though the lamp Of life be fading and
the light is turned down low,
Memries thrill us as we listen to the
whisper of the corn.
