Senator w. V. Sullivan.

United States Senator Sullivan from
Mississippi writes the following en-
dorsement of Peruna:
"Idesire to say thatI have been taking
Peruna for some time for catarrh and

I have ever taken."-W.V.S SULLIVAN.
Congressman Romulus z. Linney,
From North Carolina, writes:
a. Ny private secretary has been
using Peruna for catarrh. He had
as bad n case as I ever saw, and since he

Having proceeded some distance. the

however. appeared to take the whole
thing very coolly and explained:

The Nose.

Nothing is more rare than q really
perfect nose-that is, one which unites
harmony of form, correctness of pro-
portion and proper affinity with the
other features.
The following are, according to the
rules of art. the conditions requisite
to the beauty of this organ:
The nose should have the same
length as the forehead and have
slight depression at its root. From its
root to its extremity it should follow a
perfectly straight line and come exact
ly over the center of the upper lip. The
bridge of the nose. parallel on both
sides. should be a little wider in the
center. The tip should be neither too
thin nor too fleshy, and it's lower out
line neither narrow nor too wide. The
lobes must be gracefully defined by a
slight depression. Seen sideways, the
lower part of the nose will have but
third Of its total length.

The Dog.

Man is the best friend of the dog.
Horses come next. but between the
dog and all other farm animals. from
the house cat to the COW and the beef
steer, there seems to be a natural en-
nifty. Dogs, however. are fond Of
sheep and goats-but as diet. not as
living friends. Cows and sheep and
goats should be kept as free from as
ISOLATION with dogs as is possible. with
the exception of the trained shepherd
dog. A dog walking through a cow
pen will often cause decrease in milk
flow that amounts to more than the
cash value of the dog. Many dogs are
worth considerably less than 5000

A Mxatfc Volume.

A good story is told of the Russian
police, who are very careful lest any
literature of an atheistic character
shall fall into the hands of the peas
ants.
A peasant in the province OF Minsk
went to a publishers shop and asked
for a Bible. Unwittingly the shopman
gave him an algebra primer.
On opening the book when he reach
ed home, the peasant was surprised to
find it full of mystic signs and hero
glyphics. The peasant showed it to a
policeman, who felt convinced that the
signs were of an extremely freethink-
ing character" and so arrested the
owner.
At the trial the peasant was dis
charged, and the policeman, instead Of
being rewarded for his religious zeal
was reprimanded.
