Proof That It Is Not Confined to Sex,
Age or Condition.
The crude humor that makes the
small boy want to throw stone at a
silk hat on a man bristling with dig
nifty is not to be disposed of as a
mere ill-conceived prank of youth.
There is Meep in most people spring
Of unsubduable humor that leaps glee-
fully when conscious dignity gets a
fair tumble. That is why, for all the
solemnity of the place. the soberest
charity and the best bred propriety in
the world could not prevent litter at
a little farce that happened in a
church in Brooklyn.
A gentleman and his wife, who were
offended at something the preacher
said, gravely rose and stalked toward
the door. with their heads held high
in assertive disdain. The wife follow
ed the husband.
Unfortunately, when they were half
way down the aisle, the husband drop
ned his glove and stopped to pick it
I'M. Fate, the humorist, determined
that the wife should keep her head so
high that she did not see her husband
stoop. She went sailing on and doubl-
cd over him in riotous confusion.
The congregation held its breath and
kent its composure. The two recover
ed themselves and went on. Hoping
to escape quickly, they turned to what
looked like a side door. The husband
nulled 1t open with an impressive
swing. Before he could close it out
tumbled the window pole and long
buster and q step ladder. The con-
creation could hold it's mirth no
longer, and man and wife fed to the
real exit in undignifled haste. amid .
general and persuasive smoker.

While many people have been cured of
yet. as rule, when the catarrh becomes
thoroughly fixed more than one bottle is
necessary to complete cure. Peruna has
cured cases innumerable of catarrh of
twenty years standing. 1t is the best if
not the only internal remedy for chronic
catarrh in existence.
But prevention is far better than cure.
Every person subject to catching cold should
take Peruna at once at the slightest symp-
tom of cold or sore throat at this season of
the year and thus prevent what is almost
certain to end in chronic catarrh.

Low Rates to Southwest.

On the first and third Tuesdays of
each month the Cotton Belt route
will sell one way and round trip tick
cts at one-half the regular rate plus
50 to points in Missouri, Arkansas,
Louisiana and Texas, allowing stop
| over going, and return limit of Fl
days.
This unusually low rate is made for
the purpose of inducing Immigration
to the great southwest. L is believed
by those who have made study of
conditions that no territory on the
American continent offers equal op-
portunities for farming, stock raising,
fruit and truck growing, or any of
the multiplied industries that are
building prosperous towns and cities.
TO the person of limited means de-
string home, this section of country
offers greater inducements than per-
haps any place on earth. The fertil-
ity of soil. exceedingly low prices of
land, mild, open winters, long grow
ing seasons enabling two and three
crops To be made off the same ground,
combines Il greater number of advan-
tages than may be found elsewhere.

scriptive of the country and its re
