The women are all talking about Pc
runa. OF course they are. Why should
they not? Peruna is the remedy that
cured them. II they have a cold. Pc
luna cures them. They found that out

Weak lungs and even the first stages OF
consumption Peruna promptly restores,
and then there are "a host of women
who have slight arrangement of the
stomach and digestive organs. Ali
these derangcmeDts are of a catarrhal
nature. Peruna comes to the rescue at
once. A very short course CT Peruna IS
sufficient to put the stomach right and

perfect.
But this is not all This does not ex-
actly explain why the women especially
are talking about Peruna. Men. The
same as women. have found Peruns
useful IN the above mentioned ailments.
The reason that Peruna is such a SPECIAL
faVorite with women is something more
than all this.
Women are subject to pelvic catarrh.

Catarrh is liable to attack any organ

Catarrh usually begins as a cold in the
head or throat and is neglected until
it becomes chronic: then It begins u
dawn on the victim that he has catarrh.
Unless he is very foolish, indeed. he will
not rest easy until the catarrh Is en-
tirely cured. Thousands pay no atten-
ton TO it until it is too late.
If Peruna is used the cold never be-
comes chronic. and hence catarlh is pre-
vented But after catarrh has become
thoroughly established Peruna viii

Even in cases where the catarrh has
already attacked the lungs and the
symptoms Of consumption have shown

many cases of genuine consumption
have been cured with Peruna after the
patient had been given up to die.

WOMEN THE WORLD OVER

Catarrh is a systemic disease, durable
only BY systemic treat atment. A remedy
that cures catarrh must aim directly at
the nerve centers. This is what Peruna
does Peruna Immediately invigorates
the nerve centers which give vitality to
the mucous membranes. Then catarrh
disappears; then it is permanently
cured.

THE RELIANCE
Is Now In the Best Condition
That Can Be Expected
Before Trial Races With Columbia
and Constitution Take Place.
Columbia Ready as UsuaI-Constituto
Has an Accident.

New Rochelle, n. Y, May 19.-The
yacht Reliance arrived here, early to-
day, in tow from City Island and is
now in the finest shape for meeting her
rivals, Constitution and Columbia, in
the first scheduled races between the
90-footers off Glen Cove, Thursday. She
lay at her mornings OF Premium Point,
this morning. with her mainsail raised
ready for a breeze. The main sail,
which is the one taken on at Bristol
just before the yacht left for these wa
ters. set clearly and without wrinkles.
Mr.. Iselin was DESTROYS of going out
for spin, this morning but the wind
was dead and the sound lay as fiat as
u mill pond. Toward noon the usual
southWesterly breeze showed some
signs of putting in an appearance.
The Reliance got away from City Is
land, this morning, before daybreak.
She had been hauled out for cleaning at
Jacobs ship building yards at that
place since Saturday and was f1oated
off this morning at 4 o'clock, her bronze
underbody having been polished until
Mr.. 1selin was satisfied that she was as
slippery as she could be made.
In the hold of the Reliance is a new set
of head sails made at the City Island
branch of Ratsey & Lapthorne the Eng
lish sail makers. A main sail has also
been ordered from this firm for the Re
lance but is not yet ready. These sails
will be tried during the preliminary sea
SON
Yachtsmen are discussing the question
of time allowance. They estimate that
the Reliance will have to allow about ~
minutes to the Constitution over 30-mile
course and ~ minutes to the Columbia.
The Rcliance's spin took her only so far
as Glen Cove. whence, after jogging about
the cove few minutes, she crossed the
sound in a very light air and tied up at
her mooringS here.

SURPRISED HIM.
Doctors Test of Food.

A doctor in Kansas experimental
with his boy in test of food and gives
the particulars. He says: Il naturally
watch the effect of different foods on
patients.
My own little son, a lad of four. had
been i'll with lung fever and during
his convalescence did not seem to care
for any kind of food
knew something of Grape-N Nuts and
it's rather fascinating flavor and par
ticularly of its nourishing and nerve
building powers, so | started the boy
on Grape-Nuts and found from the first
dish that he liked it,
His mother gave it to him steadily
and he began to improve at once. In
less than month he had gained about
eight pounds and soon became so we'll
and strong we had no further anxiety
about him.
AN old patient of mine, 73 years
old, came down with serious stomach
trouble and before | was called he got
so weak he could eat almost nothing,
and was in a serious condition. He had
himself, tried almost every kind of
food for the sick without avail.
Il Immediately put him on Grape
Nuts with good, rich milk and just a
little pinch of sugar. He exclaimed
when l came next day why doctor I
never ate anything so good or that
made me feel so much stronger l am
pleased to say that Grape Nuts cured
him, but he had to stick to it for two
or three weeks, then he began to
branch out a little with rice or an egg
or two. He got entirely we'll in spite of
his almost hopeless condition. He
gained % pounds in two months which
ut his age is remarkable.

Grape-Nuts has worked wonders" This

THE CONSTITUTION
Hauled Out at City IsIand-Touches
Bottom and Awaits Repairs.

City Island, N. Y, May 19.-The i'll
luck which has trailed along in the
wake of the Constitution ever since her
launching two years ago is still with
her, for an accident which happened
today, when she was being hauled out
1T Jacobs yard, City Island will keel,
her out of the first two or three days
Glen Cove races, if not the whole series.
She arrived from New London, yes
terday afternoon. and il was thought
that it might be possible to get her out
1T high water. early this morning, when
ne Reliance, which has been rebur-
nsh"d was put overheard. On account
of the neap tide, however, there was
not sufficient time in which to do the
double job, ana the work of hauling her
out was postponed until high water,
this afternoon. The cradle was adj
jGsted, the Constitution came slowly
out of the water, when suddenly the
cradle props gave way. The big yacht
hceled over to port and With so great
force that some of the bilge blocks went
almost through her thin Tobin bronze
undcrbody. Her keel sank into the
mud and after a line was passed to the
Satellite, it was all her tender could do
to get her Oft.
1t was thought at first that the hull
had escaped injury and that with one
extra effort the yacht could be got
ready for tomorrow's race. When. how
ever, this evening, the damage inflicted
by the blge blocks was discovered. her
owner August Belmont, gave up all
hopes of being able to enter the Consti-
tuition in the first race against Reliance
and Columbia, and he at once arranged
with the Morse Iron Works. Brooklyn
to have the yacht locked there for re-
pairs. She will arrive there, tomorrow
morning, ana be dry locked Immediate
~ and although the work of repairs
and overhaulinG will be carried on with
all possible speed it will be at least a
week l"fore the yacht is again in rae
ing trim.

Better Adapted Than English to the
Uganda Railway Needs.

London, May 19.-Sir George White
house, manager and chief engineer of
the Uganda Railway, who has just re-
turned here after seven and a half
years spent in constructing the line
speaks highly of American locomotives
and bridges used. He said to a repre-
sentative of The Associated Press:
We have sc American and "a Brit
ish main line engines. The experiment
proved the American locomotives en-
tirely satisfactory. They are 10 per cent
cheaper and although their finish is not
so perfect they are more suitable for d
mountain railway like the Uganda road
because they are not so rigid and take
the curves more easily.
"Of the steel viaducts along the line,
2G are American and eight of English
make. The American viaducts are eX-
cellent, but the contractors We're great
ly behind time and took a year instead
of seven months to erect them"
Sir George mentioned among the diff
fcultes of the American work the scare
arising from the presence of many lions
along the route. No less than q en-
ployes are known to have been carried
off by the beasts.
