BUSINESS IN SNUFF.
Facts and Figures Which Go to show
That There Are Many
Buyers.

The general impression is that there
has been a great decline in the use of
snuff. Snuff boxes are no longer in evil
dence in fashionable society. In the
cities not one man in 10000 takes snuff.
In the country districts of the north
not one man in a township is addicted
to the use of snuff. In the rural dis
tricts of Kentucky and Tennessee less
is used than before the civil war.
Yet the American Snuff company,
which controls 95 per cent. of the prod
uct in the United States, reports net
earnings for last year of 81, 730,617, and
paws dividends Of s095,O42 After pay
ing dividends, the company, with as
sets Of S25.315, 900, has a surplus Of
s1.442,s4s This would indicate a heavy
business in snuff, says the Chicago In
ter Ocean.
There were manufactured in the
United States in 1876 $4,000 pounds
of snuff; in 1902 there were manufac-
tured 10000 0 pounds. In other
words. five times as much snuff was
made in this country last year as 25
wears ago. Who buys It; who uses it8
The statistics Of manufacture do not
answer these questions. 0fthe 1885,
81 pounds Of snuff manufactured in
the United States in the census year
Of 1900 New Jersey produced 4,ts2.57s
pounds, Pennsylvania 3,23s,541 pounds,
Tennessee 1892. 927 pounds, Maryland
1.949,22s pounds. Illinois TO7,sl5
pounds. Virginia 64O.075 pounds. The
people Of none Of these states, how
ever. were heavy consumers of snuff.
OF the Ave kinds Of snuff manufae'
tured that year, the greater part Of
the Scotch grade went to Germany
and to the whites and negroes in Louis
lana, Arkansas. Texas and Indian ter.
ritory. Sweet snuff. used for dipping
found heaviest sale in North and soutl
Carolina.
Of Maccaboy snuff the largest saie'
were in New England, and Rappe'
SNUFF found many buyers in the North
western states, though most of II wen
abroad. But wherever it was sold i i
certain that we are manufacturing
more snuff than ever before and md
ing a ready market for It.

Disorders.

Miss Elizabeth Ubef, No. O. Bassett

81 have always dreaded the fan
and winter because Of my extreme
liability 10 catch cold, when catarrhal
trouble would quickly develop
through my entire system which II
would take weeks 20 drive away.
am thankful 70 say that since I have
taken Peruna, do not have any nea-
son 20 dread thfs any more. Last

days was completely cured and since
that time, n IhaYe been ae Ell exc

Miss Rosa Gerbing, q popular
society woman Of Crown Point, Ind,
writesg
"Lasf winter I took q long drive
IN the country, and being FOO thilgy
| cLadI caught q bad cold which settled
on my lungs, and which I could not
seem 10 shake off. I had heard 3
! great deal of Pernna for colds and
cafarrh and I bought a bottle to try.
am pleased that / did for IL brought
speedy relief II only took two bot
Ties and I consider this money well
spent
"YOu have q firm friend In me,
and InOf only advise its use TO my
friends, but have purchased several
bottles TO give TO those without the
means to buy, and have noticed
without exception that II has brought
about q speedy cure wherever II has
been used. miss Ross Gerbing.
To neglect a cold is to invite chronic
catarrh. As soon as anyone discovers
the first symptoms Of catching cold he
should at once begin the use Of Peruna
according to directions on the bottle,
and the cold Is sure to pass away with
out leaving any bad effects.
Unless this is done the cold is almost
sure to end in the second stage Of ca
tarrh which is making so many lives
miserable. If Peruna was taken every
time one has a cold or cough chronic
catarrh would be practically an un-
known disease.
If you donot derive prompt and salts
factory results from the useof Peruna,
write at once to DR.. Hartman, giving a
full statement Of your case and he will
be pleased to give you his valuable
advice gratis.

A Columbus girl, who owns q kodak
and delights in taking pictures, made
an awful picture the other day. Her
father was sitting on the front porch,
and having the kodak primed, she
took a snap shot. Presently. the

chair, and the daughter took her pic
ture also. When the picture was
developed It showed her father sitting
in the chair with the hired girl in his

"Forget not the dead: An their noble deeds
Speak pleasantly Of them who left us in tears;
Other Joys may be lost, but their names shSh
While time bears our feet through the valley
Of tears"
Bro. Cappleman passed through the
Udark valley Of the shadow Of death"
to the silent land on the unknown
shore, from his home 10 Little Rock,
Arkansas, on the 18th day of August
1903. Bro. Cappleman was q native OF
Florida, where he was rearedt to young
manhood, whence he removed to
Louisville, Kentucky, and engaged in
business. Here he remained until he
met the beautiful, talented and bril-
liant Miss Josie Frazee, whom he
married, and soon removed to this
city(O kolons) where be resided until
his recent removal to Little Rock.
His wife, two sons and a daughter q r
vive him. He was a faithful, loving
husband, father, neighbor and citizen.
A zealoVs Mason, an honest mana
firm, trusty and consistent friend, he
could be depended upon in every
emergency, and was an example Of the
highest type of manhood. His life
was one of toll to meet its necessities,
but his courage, patience and faith,
were equal to all emergencies, and
sustaided him in his last struggle with
the common and Unsuitable enemy Of
mankind. When the CREST day of the
resurrection dawns, and the graves
are called upon to give up their dead,
and the Lyon of The Tribe of judah"
shall extend his arm to raise the ram

him safely on the beautiful shore
where we hope to meet him witt
others for whom we mourn.

er We tender our sincere sympathy II
this their hour Of dire affection. Tru'
