A PROMINENT CHURCH WORKER SAYS
 SHE OWES HER LIFE TO PE=RU=NA.
HER GREAT FORTUNE.
A Woman Saved From Lifelong Misery and Made Happy
 and Ilsefui.

4 woman confined to the house for several years with chronic female derangement had finally given up hope of being cured.
 She had tried physician after physi- clan. and remedy after remedy, without any permanent improvement.
 Her treatment had cost her husband who was a poor man, hundreds or dol- lars. They had been obliged to deny themselves many comforts Of life in order to get money enough to pay the physicians.
 The woman had become weak, nervous and wretched, and scarcely able to keep out of her bed Her children were growing up neglected and ragged, be- cause of the want of mothers care. Her husband was becoming discouraged and broken down with oyerwork.
 Picking up the paper one day she hap pened to read an item which contained the news that pr. Hartman would treat such cases free of charge by letter. She immediately wrote the doctor describing her case, and giving him all her symp- toms.
 She soon received a letter telling her exactly what to do, and what medicines and appliances to get. She began the treatment (the principal remedy being Peruna) at once, and in few weeks she was we'll and strong again, able to do her own work.
 This offer of free home treatment to women is still open to all who may need the services of this eminent physician. All letters applying for treatment will be promptly answered, and be held strictly confidential.
 Miss Annie Hoban, Post Pocahontas of Yemassee Council of Red Men | tWomen's Branch), writes from S72 Eighth Ave, New York: Three months ago l was troubled with backache and troublesome heavi- ness about the stomach. Sleep brought me no rest for it was a restless sleep. The doctor said my nervous system was out of order, but his prescriptions didn't seem to relieve me. was told that Peruna was good for building up the nervous system. After using it for two months I know now that it is. l want to say that it made a new woman of me. The torturing symptoms have all disappeared and l feel myself again. Peruna did me more good than all the other medicines 1 have taken"
 ANNIE HOBAN.
 Miss Mamie Powell, Lake Charles, Louisiana, writes:
 | SlEIEItly DtlltNt ludl ID woman's best friend, for 1t has certainly 1 been that to me. I had had headaches, baekaches and other aches every month for long time, but shortly after I be- gan taking Peruna this was . thing of the past and have good reason to be grateful I take bottle every spring and fall now, and that keeps my health perfect, and I certainly am more robust now than I have been before and am weighing more l do not thipk any one will be disappointed in the results obtained from the use of Peruna"
 MISS MAMIE POWELL.
 If you do not derive prompt and satis- factory results from the use of Peruna, write at once to pr Hartman, giving a full statement of your case. and he will be pleased to give you his valuable ad- vice gratis.

Contains More of Genuine Happfness and RestfuIness Than the
 Life of Luxury.

We have heard recently of family of large means and the highest culture who wearied of the growing extrava- gance of domestic life in great city and the artifiiciality of its social stand ards. and betook themselves to a little rural city which is noted for it's intel lectuai life. Here among the noun tains and lakes the husband and father realizes the cherished ambition of pub fishing a periodical, which is recog- nized at home and abroad for it's abili- ty, and here the wife and daughters give free and joyous expression to their tastes, whether in writing, gar dening, woodcraft or the cultivation of the social graees. The family are hap the world is the richer, says Good Housekeeping. A woj Nan in New York, who in her revoltAgainst luxu- ries. represents growing number of thoughtful persons among the rich and well-to-do, was heard not long since to express an earnest longing for the arrival of the next financial panic and period of business depression, that summary halt might be called to ex trayaGance and high living. She is weary and heart-siek.
 Examples like these are without the vitiating acid of sour grapes; they give us glimpses of sanity and sound ness where there is much that is arti- ticial and disgusting. To some it is given, we may add to know or to feel the worthlessness of riches without the possession of them
 The love of luxury has stolen upon us all unawares. The luxuries of one generation are the necessities of the next. Isn't 1t time to brush the gath ering aust from the portraits of our grandfathers and grandmothers, gaze into their sturdy faces, and take our bearings? If we are not soft as the athletes say-beyond hardening, we can Go something to impart fiber and backbone to the rising generation.

The following essay by youthful boarding school boy throws quite a new and interesting light on church digni- taries. There are three kinds of clergy men bshups rectors and curats. the bishups tell the rectors to work and the surats have to do it. Curat IS a thin married man but when he is a rector he gets fuller and can preeeh longer sermons and becums a good man, we should all- ways rispeet curat because sum day he may beeum a rector and we must always pity those who are low down in the world any of us may becum misfortunate so we must not hit man with stone "-Chi- sago Chronicle.

Miss Alice Bailey, of Atlanta, Ga., escaped the sur. geen's knife, by using Lydia E. Piukham's Vegetable Compound.
 "DEAR MRS PINKHAM :-I wish to express my gratitude for the restored health and happiness Lydia E. Pink hams Vegetable Compound has brought into my life.
 "I had suffered for three years with terrible pains at the time of menstrual tion, and did not know what the trouble was until the doctor pronounced it tn- flammatiOn of the Ovaries, and proposed an operation.
 .' I felt so weak and sick that felt sure that could not survive the ordeal, and so I told him that I would not un- dergo it. The following week l read an advertisement in thepaper of your Vegetable Compound in such an emer- gency, and so decided to try it. Great was my joy to find that I actually inn proved after taking two bottles, so I kept taking it for ten weeks, and at the end of that time 1 was cured. l had gained eighteen pounds and was in excellent health, and am now.

 Dr, Lines IS particularly emphatic in his statement, and there does not now seem to be any room for doubt as to the fact that Dodd's kidney Pills, and noth- ing else, saved the little boy.
 He was so bad that he had Epileptic spells which seized him with increasing frequency. He Was semi-paralyzed in the right side, and his mind was badly af- feeted
 In their sworn statement, Mir. and Mrs. Mcbride say:
 .,Thc very day we began to use Dodd s Kidney Pills our boy had twenty-seven of these Epileptic spells or fits In less than a week he ceased having them entirely.
 The case has caused a great sensation in the neighborhood. The sworn state ments have confirmed the whole story.

controlling the price. of sugar. For many
years it has successfully realized its pur-

tempt any longer to- sell sugar at an arti-

will try to sell all the sugar it can, and
will no longer. as one of it's officials put
it, hold the umbrella for It's smaller and
weaker competitors. The trust found that
to use its strength to maintain prices was
merely to encourage competition. 1t now
remains to be seen whether the trust will
