Peculiar Elevator That Lifted Bishop
Potter's Distinguished Guest.


During an uncommonly hot week OF
a summer when Bishop Henry c. Pot
ter resided on North Washington
square he had as guest a distin-
guished English churchman, bishop
and member of the House OF Lords.
The visitor was afflicted with rheuma-
tism and was unable to ascend the
stairs from the dining room without
considerable suffering. The residence
was equipped with hand-power
freight and baggage elevator, large
enough to accommodate one passen-
ger, although not ordinarily used for
that purpose After noticing the evil
dent pain caused by the stairway, in
the case Of his distinguished guest, 1t
occurred to Bishop Potter that the
freight elevator might be available
as more convenient means OF ascent.
After dinner On one Of the hottest
days il summer the experiment was
tried. TIE visiting bishop stepped
carefully into the gloomy box. Two
young men who had also dined we'll,
and to whom post-prandial exertion
was in the nature of sore burden,
were pressed into service to haul on
the ropes The distinguished and al
ficted guest was of a portly habit.
and weighed more than the average Of
stone"
The elevator was rot built for great
weights, aud It's lifting power depend
ed almost exactly upon the main
strength at the end Of the ropes. With
prodigious heaving and hauling the
ascent was begun. The two flushed
and painting young men looked at each
other and had emphatic thoughts. AS
the gathered calves OF the ecclesiastic
were disappearing up the shaft an
inch at a time, deep voice foated
down to the volunteer crew:
81 say, does it run by water-power?'
And in a gasping duet, the reply
ascended from below:
Yes. my lord, by perspiration
power."-New York Mail and Express.

Effects permanent cures.

An innovation in the line of railroad
telegraph service has been put into
use on the New York Central Railroad
between Utica and Albany. BY the
means Of the apparatus a single wire
can be used for telegraph and tele-
phone messages at the same time.
While the operator Is ticking away
a telegraph in Morse code another per-
son can telephone message without
the slightest interference.
In a recent report on the results Of
extended measurements of mental
traits in the two sexes, Prof. Z. L.
Thorndike said that in the measure
ment Of abilities the greatest differ
ence found was the female superiority
in the tests Of impressbility, such as
the rate and accuracy of perception,
verbal memory and spelling. In these
matters only about one-third Of the
boys reach the median mark for girls.
In general the girls We're found to
be mentally less variable than the
boys.
A woman writer tells the girls to Sc
lect their husbands by the color of
their eyes. 1t would be well also to
take some cognizance Of the color of
their noses.

ADMIRAL SCHLEY, one of the foremost
n notable heroes of the nineteenth century.
A name that startles terror in the heart of every
Spaniard. A man of steady nerve, clear head,
undaunted courage and prompt decision
Approached by friend recently, his opinion
was asked as to the efficacy of Peruna, the
national catarrh remedy. Without the slight
est hesitation he gave this remedy his endorse
ment. 1t appeared on later conversation that
Peruna has been used in his family, where it is
favorite remedy.
Such endorsements serve to indicate the
wonderful hold that Peruna has upon the minds
of the American people. 1t is out of the ques-
ton that SO great and famous a man as Ad-
miral Schley could have any other reason for
giving his endorsement to Peruna than his
positive conviction that the remedy is all that
he says it is.
The fact is that Peruna has overcome all OPP

1t is natural that the people of the
arid regions which are to be placed I'M
der irrigation through the operation of
the bill enacted by the last Congress
should regard with some apprehension
the speculations of scientists upon the
outcome of the irrigation experiment
for irrigation is still an experiment as
to certain kinds of land. AS a general
proposition irrigated land has proved
productive at first. In few years
however, it is found that in some re.
gions it becomes unfruitful. 1t is ex-
planned that this is due to the alkali
gradually coming to the surface. Water
is fed to soil which has never been
leached by rain; thus it dissolves and
holds In solution the alkali of the
earth which, in rainy regions, has been
drained off by thousands of years of
to the surface the alkaline water, and
as it evaporates the ground Is covered
with 1.-The hoar frost Of the desert
rhine of sulphate of magnesia. rock
salt and other minerals which, in ex-
cess. are fatal to all vegetation. The
pessimistic scientists declare that 1t
was thus that MesOpotamia, the era
die Of the human race, was ruined, and
they maintain that, as general rule,
irrigation in n perfectly arid climate
sooner or later renders the soil perma-
nently unfit for cultivation. 1t is point
u
gated land in the Southwest which are
already beginning to revert to desert
because of this tendency Of the alkali
to come to the surface and kill off
everything save the plants indigenous
to the desert. But while science Is
thus disposed to be gloomy she still
holds out some hope. Experiments by
experts connected with the Agricul-
tural Department and by representa-
tives of State and Territorial farming
organizations encourage the belief
that a chemical treatment may be de-
vised WHICH will neutralize the alkali
and even render it positively benef1-
cial In this view of the case, there
FORE the situation is far from hope
less. 1t remains to be seen, however,
whether time will verify the predic-
tons of the eXperimenters. In the
meantime the boom in the districts
embraced in the government irriga-
ton zones Is likely to assume more
reasonable proportions, which will be
no bad thing for the region even if the

1t will save a good many people from
misfortune If the experiment proves a
failure.

position and has won its way to the hearts of
the people. The natural timidity which SO
many people have felt about giving endorse
ment to any remedy is giving way. Gratitude
and a desire to help others has inspired thous
ands of people to give public testimonials for
Peruna who heretofore would not have con-
scented to such publicity.
Never before in the annals of medicine has
it happened that SO many men of national and
international reputation have been willing to
give unqualified and public endorsements to a
proprietary remedy No amount of advertise
ing could have accomplished such a result.
Peruna has won on its own merits. Peruna
cures catarrh of whatever phase or location in
the human body. That is why it receives SO
many notable and unique endorsements.

European and American Oysters.

The oysters of America and Europe
differ greatly. European oysters are
smaller and have a copper taste. Our
Southern oysters are larger than the
northern. They are dredged along the
coast and transferred to oyster beds
in creeks close to shore. where they
fatten. In London oyster statesmen
sometimes keep oysters for few days
in water to which oatmeal has been
added, for the purpose Of rendering
them more delicate and Of better fla
yor. When out Of season-during

milky and not fit to be eaten.

upon the Secretary. He said:
mr.. Shaw, l am afraid that If you
dispense with any more of our men it
will impair the efficiency of this de-

say this to you and to get your views"
For answer the Secretary looked up
at the ceiling and said:

throat can be kept clear of mucous
and splitting. Catarrh is nuisance
and source Of annoyance, not only
to the one who has it, but everybody
else. The thick, yellow discharge
from the head produces feeling of
personal deflement, and the odor of
the breath is almost intolerable.
The catarrhal poison brings on
stomach troubles and affects the Kid
neys and Bladder. It attacks the
soft bones and tissues of the head
and throat, causing total or partial
deafness, the loss of smell, and Civ

from it's ravages. Gatarrh makes
you sick all over, for it is a dis
ease of the blood, and circulates all
through the system, and for this
reason, sprays, washes, inhalers,
powders and salves have proven
failures.
The way to cure Catarrh thor
