7 IKE A DEMON grip has crossed our
country, leaving behind scores of
physical wrecks.
Victims of catarrh Of the head, ca
tarrh of the throat, catarrh of the
lungs, catarrh of the stomach, catarrh
of the kidneys, catarrh of the pelvic
organs, are to be counted by hundreds
of thousands. Grip is epidemic ca
tarrh, and sows the seed of chronic ca
tarrh within the system.
This is so true that few grip suffer
ers are able to make complete recov-
cry until they have used Peruna.
Never in the history of medicine has
O remedy received such unqualified and
universal eulogies as Peruna.
A New York Alderman's Experience.
Hon. Joseph A. Finn, alderman
Fifth District, writes from 104 Chris
TOPPER street, New York City, as fol-
lows:
"When a pestilence overtakes our
people we take precaution as nation
to preserve the citizens against the
dread disease.
LA grippe has entered thousands
of our homes this fall, and noticed
that the people who used Peruna were
quickly restored, while those who de-
pended on doctors prescriptions, spent
weeks in recovering, leaving them
weak and emaciated.

The other day an omnibus full of

But the other persisted and the lady
insisted, and they came very near quar-
reling. Presently one of the passen-
gers pointed to twin bag in the omni-
bus and asked:
"Whose is that?"

"And it isn't mine," said the lady.
HE has mine and want it, or I'll have

out being robbed of her property in
broad daylight"
Finally the commercial said he would
open the bag to prove his property.
The lady objected at first, saying she
did not want her bag opened in the
presence of a crowd of strangers But
as there was no other means of settling
the dispute she at length consented.
The commercial pressed the lock,
opened the bag, and the curious pas
sengers bent forward to see. On the
top of everything lay big, fiat flask
half full of whisky. pack of cards, a
meerschaum pipe, quarter of pound
of tobacco, and one or two things that
nobody knows the name of. The COM
mercial was the first to recover his
self-possession and speech.
Madam" he said, "you are right.
The bag is yours. 1 owe you thou

But the lady had tainted, and the
commercial relocked his bag with a
quiet smile. Early in the same after
noon a sign painter received note, in
feminine hand, asking him to come to
a certain house to mark a black leather
bag in white letters a foot and half
deep.

Famous Pictures Ruined.

The Rome correspondent of the
Daily Mail says that owing to unscien-
tific treatment while they were being
renovated, several famous pictures be-
longing to the Rosso palace, at Genoa,
have been lost to the world. The
paintings included two Van Dyeks, a
Carlo Maratta, Pris Bordone, a Va
lerio Castelli, and two Guido Renis.
The cleaning was intrusted to a pro-
fessed cleaner, who washed the paint
ings with an alkaline solution which
completely destroyed them. 1t is
stated that the Van Dycks were among
the most valuable specimens of his
work. The loss is incaiculable.

THE PRESIDENTS OPINION.
Strike in Government Bindery Dis.
cnssed BY Hr. Roosevelt.

Oyster Bay, Special.-Prcsidens
Roosevelt has made applicable to all
departments of the government SER
vice the principle he enunciated at the
time he re-instated VIM. A. Miller to
the position IN tne Government Print
ing Ofice fro. which Miller had been
dismissed because of disagreement
with the bookbinder's union. The
President has plainly stated to the
members of his cabinet that the prin-
ciples is to indicate the policy of the
President" in similar cases.
Thursday night the President au-
thorized the publication Of letter.
which was sent to each member of his
cabinet on the 22nd OF July. The let
ter was signed by Mr.. Barnes. acting
secretary to the President, and is as
follows:
My Dear Sir: The President di-
rects me to send you herewith, for
your information, copies of two letters
sent to Secretary Cortelyou with refer
ence to the Government Printing Office
which define the attitude Of the admin
istration in connection with the sub
ject discussed. They are sent you for
your information and guidance, as
they indicate the policy Of the Presi-
dent in this matter"
The letters to Secretary Cortelyou
were written on July 13 and IA. The
salient sentence of the first letter was:
There is no objection to the employees
OF the Government Printing Office con-
stituting themse, 'es into union. If
they so desire, but no rules or resolu-
tons of that union can be permitted to
override the laws OF the United States.
which it Is my sworn duty to enforce" "
In the letter of the l4th. the Presi-
quoted the finding OF the Anthracite
Strike Commission regarding the en-
ployment of labor as follows: 1T Is
adjudged and awarded that no person
shall be refused employment or in any
way Disseminated against on account
of membership or Ion-membership In
any labor organization. and that there
shall be no discrimination against or
interference with any employe who is
not a member Of any labor organiza-
tion."
Concerning this principle the Presi-
dent wrote: at is Of course mere ele-
mentary decency to require that all
the government departments shall be
handled in accordance with the prin-
ciple thus clearly and fearlessly enun-
ciated."
