Nervous Depression.

Summer months are peculiarly the
months of nervous diseases, especially
nervous prostration and other depressed
states of the nervous system. People
who are not at all inclined to be nervous
or suffer from weak nerves find this
time especially trying. Sultry heat
and electrical disturbances Of The at
mo.phcre are probably the cause Of
this.
lnvalids need TO be particularly care
full to fortify the nervous system by
the use of Peruna.

ably not tenth of the women know
that their disease is catarrh. To dis
tinguish catarrh of various organs it
has been named very differently.
one woman has dyspepsia, another
bronchitis, another Bright's disease,
another liver complaint. another con-
sumption, another female complaint.
These women would be very much sur
prised to hear that they are all suffer-
ing with chronic catarrh. But it is So,
nevertheless.
Each one of these troubles and great
many more are simply catarrh-that is,
chronic Inflammation of the mucous
lining, of which organ is affected. Any
internal remedy that will cure catarrn
in one location will cure it in any other
location. This is why Peruna has be-
come so justly famous in the cure of fe-
male diseases. 1t cures catarrh wher-
ever located. Its cures remain. Peruna
does not palliate-it cures.

Canine Intelligence.

A native of Peru has vouched for
the following: A native pointed out
one day huge white dog that lay be
fore his waited house. He declared
that his dog had intelligence Of an al
most human order. He said that once,
when it had broken a bone in it's foot,
he had taken it to a surgeon and the
surgeon had set the fracture and re-
lieved it of it's pain. Some months aft
erward, in the middle of the night, the
surgeon was awakened by great
scratching at his door and by thump-
ing as of some heavy body. He slipped
on dressing gown and went down, to
find the white dog in his garden with
a brown dog beside it that held one
leg off the ground. The surgeons de-
duction was that the white dog had
brought it's companion there for treat
ment. Accordingly he dressed the leg
of the injured animal, and thereupon
the two dogs licked his hands with an
air of gratitude and departed slowly
into the night side by side.

Arab Lying.

The following characterization of the
Arab penchant for not telling the truth
is from paper by Dr. G. Saint-Paul
on the Tunisians: ARAB lying is ex-
asparating 1t is absurd and victorious.
1t triumphs easily over the critical
sense and the habit Of scientific rea-
soning. 1t is sometimes childish. Your
native servants will never be taken
unawares. You forbid one of them to
smoke in your dining room and you
surprise him there with cigarette in
his mouth You were smoking No
I saw you Impossible You had
cigarette in your mouth; you are hid
ing it in your hand; there it is!' Then
God put it in my hand The native
denies always. Taken red handed he
denies. Beneath blows he denies.
Pain is sometimes powerless to make
him confess, even at the point of death.
This obstinacy is due in part to the
high idea he has of his dignity His
pride forbids him a confession, be-
cause the avowal Of his lying is in
fnitely humiliating in his eyes. The
fear Of losing face is all powerful in
him. To recognize a fault is more
shameful than to have committed it.
Hence the peculiar Obstinacy of the
native in denying, even when it would
be to his interest to confess, an OBJ
stinacy not manifested in other ways"

All except four of the 149 priv
ate banks of the state complied with
the new law and became state
banks before Sept. 1. Those were
small institutions and will go out of
the banking business. The new law
is a great step forward, as it brings
all banks under uniform require
ments and places them all under
supervision of the banking depart
ment.

The WAY to Float.

to those who cannot swim: "Any hui
man being who will have the presence
Of mind to clasp the hands behind his
back and turn the face toward the
zenith may float at ease and in perfect
safety In tolerably still water. When
you first find yourself in deep water
you have only to consider yourself an
empty pitcher. Let your mouth and
nose, and not the top of your heavy
head, be the highest part of you and
you are safe. But thrust up one Of
your bony hands and down you go
turning up the handle tips over the
pitcher" There are reason and logic
in this.

Tolerance.

Tolerance is calm, generous respect
for the opinions of others, even of ones
enemies. Tolerance is silent justice
blended with sympathy. Tolerance al
ways implies wisdom and kindness. 1t
seeks to convert others from error by
gently raising them to higher ordeals,
by leading them to broader lines of
thinking, by patiently helping them to
help themselves. Tolerance does not
use the battering ram Of argument or
the club of sarcasm or the rapier Of
ridicule.--Selected.

a poem about them as somebody did
about Mary's little lamb.-Boston Globe
We are in with this:
Fairy had two little calves,
They were so very sweet
That every one that saw them said
The calves could not be beat.
Concord Monitor
Miss Fairy took them to the beach;
They spOrted in the brine,
And those who saw them all agreed
Those calves were superfne.
Chelsea Gazette
And after sporting in the brine
Now what do you suppose?
Miss Fairy was quite short with them
And on them played the hose.
-Duquesne Heights GaZoo
No doubt Miss Fairy thought it slick,
The hose mad as a Turk,
Renlarking twas low-down trick,
Got in its (open) work.

Whereat the calves chirked UP bit
And bleated loud, but f1e!-
It shocks me when / think Of It'll
They winked at passersby!
-Pittsburg Dispatch.
These naughty men should all beware
Before the dust storm, high,
Swoops down upon their rubbering
And hits them in the eye
For while it may be passable
To pet the barnyard calf,
To even stare at Fairy's calves
Would not be nice by half.
