The day was when men of promi-

publication. This remains true to-day
of most proprietary medicines. But
Peruna has become so justly famous,
it's merits are known to so many peo-

one hesitates to see his name in print
recommending Peruna.
The highest men in our nation have
givens Peruna a strong endorsement,

satisfactory results from the use of
Peruna, write at once to DIR. Hartman.

Drilling n Rock.

From the Lowell Citizen.
For rhythmic and unerring surety OF
motion, commend me to three STURDY
fellows boring a hole in piece OF rooh'
Maybe you have never watched leuse4
men drilling rock so that you cannot
exactly realize the physical skill neces-
sary to do this thing, the long prac-
tice of hand and eye required for IT.
One man sits upon the rock WhlCh
is being drilled and holds with nus
hands, between his knees, the drll
which is to pierce the rock. Two
companions stand above him and re-
lentlessly raise and let fall their
heavy hammers upon the drills head,
at a hairs breadth from his myers
A deviation of a fraction of an men
would mean a broken wrist or
manned hand to this man. He does
not seem to think of it, or of the pom
derous hammers crashing through the
air over his very head. Before eacn
stroke of the hammer descends ne
has to turn the drill in the hole so
that the stroke will not bear twice
in the same place, for the hole must
be bored round in order to insert the
dynamite stick. The perfect accord;
the perfect rhythm of the motions Oh
the three. has a fascination.
Were they machines these men coulu
not keep stricter time in this unenu-
ing turning of the drill under the
ceaseless falling blows. 1t Is music

the wing, but by the time we had got
to Alden he had quite recovered, and
felt able to try his luck again, for the
day after leaving this port he squeezed
through the bars of the cage which the
carpenter had constructed for him, and
flew out of the saloon skylight, dis
daining the cockroach l proffered to
lure him back.
For a little while he stayed in the rig
ging to shake out his plumage and con-
slider his route, and then headed for
land, which 1 sincerely hope he reach

He had. at all events. scored his pas
sage down the Red Sea.
Related Crow.
The second stowaway 1 have to re-
cord was the last 1 have met and the
most remarkable. AS the P. and o.
steamer Japan left Colombo harbor on
her hcmeward voyage, last December,
a crow, which, perched in the rigging,
was hungrily watching the cook cut
ting UP some meat, was carried out to
sea, and did not think it worth while,
apparently to make any effort to re-
turn.
He was not a very prosperous look
ing crow. for his face was bare of
feathers on one side. and possibly he
thought that a sea voyage might be of
benefit to his constitution. Be that
as it may, he stayed on board. and
was regularly fed; at night he roasted
aloft in the rigging.
This was well while the weather was
calm, but a day or two before we got
into Suez it began to blow very hard
one night, and in the morning the poor
crow was found worn out by his eff
forts to hold on in the teeth of the
wind. With characteristic prudence,
he determined the next night to roost
under the awning, but the ships cats
showed such desire to make his closer
acquaintance that his friends on board
decided that he would be safer caught
and Gagged.
He bore his Imprisonment with good
grace and appetite, like my old friend
the shrike. but his adventures had a
sad ending. The weather was terribly
cold when we reached England this
January, and the poor crow, although
he lived to be delivered at the Zoolog-
ical Gardens. died before he had the
opportunity of recounting his adven-
lures and experiences to his fellow
crows in the society's aviaries.
AT any rate he could claim to have
made a record as a stowaway that has
seldom been equaled, especially by a
bird which eschews migration and for
eign adventure to such an extent as
does the town loving Indian crow.

PE-RU-NA IDEAL Is A HE FOR WINTER ILLS.
VALUABLE HEALTH HINTS FOR
DECEMBER

One good warm bath a week is
enough Tor December. The cold tow
ell bath for those in vigorous health,
or the cold, dry rub with a coarse tow
ell every morning for others, is suf-
icient to keep the skin in good con-
dftion. The frequent use of water
during December should be avoided.
Sleeping Room.
The sleeping room should be we'll
ventilated and kept cool. No one
should sleep in a hot room. Before
going out in the morning gargle the
throat with cold water, and splash
the face and neck with cold water.
This is a preventative to catching cold.
Those who are especially liable to cold
should take tablespoonful of Peruna
before breakfast.
Exercise.
A brisk walk in the open air before
the midday meal is necessary for
good health. Those who have a touch
of catarrh or a cold should take a ta-
blespoonful of Peruna before the mid
day meal.
Confinement.
Those confined to the house or of
flee during the afternoon should be
sure to take some exercise before din
ner or the evening meal. December
being the most trying month, as it
ushers in Winter, all people who have
ever been troubled with catarrh
should take a tablespoonful of Peru
ma before supper.
Sunlight.
The long nights and short days of
December make sunlight so scarce
that every one should get as much of
the direct rays of the sun as possible.
Let sun into the house. Walk on the
sunny side of the street. Keep in the
sun all you possibly can. Taketa ia
blespoonful of Peruna at bed time.

George w. Conway, Augusta.

Augusta, Ga, Dec. 12-Capt. George
w. Conway died to-day, aged ga. He
was employed in the doorkeeper's de-
partment at the Capitol during the ses-
sion of the Legislature before the last,
and was known to many Georgians,
but his appearance in recent years was
only a suggestion of his palmy days.
During the war he rendered valuable
service in the secret service and since
the war conducted a livery and trans
fer business. He was a dashing horse
man of the Wild West type-pants in
boots broad-brimmed hat, flowing curls
about his shoulders, and splendid ply
sique.
He is survived by a wife and two
grown daughters.
Capt. Conway, after the war for a
short time, was grand master of the

Judging from the expressions which were conveyed to The Republican throughout the day, yesterday. the re- publicans of Phoenix have seldom been 50 wrought up as they were over the suggestion that it would be expedi- ent to make certain the reelection O. Shott and Dunlap, democratic council men, by naming them as the nominees of the republican convention or at least making no nominations against them. The sentiments expressed were all in warm commenda tion of the position taken by this paper on the subject. Nobody questioned the repub- Hcanism-o of the men who had tentative ly suggested the unanimous nomina- ton, brotherly love business, but it was conceded that zeal had clouded their judgment for a moment. No doubt, nine-tenths of the gentlemen of the citizens committee on municipal water works now recognize that seri- ous mistake was made in attempting to align the committee for or against any candidate in advance of the party nonina tions.
 And it was absurd, in the extreme, to assume, even inferentially, that there was any lack of good material for the council among republicanS-

Prosperity Unchecked.

The Railway Age quotes a number of the leading railroad men of the country on the outlook for business, and all are optimistic Vice President Morton of the Santa Fe. after a trip over that extended system, says that the west never was in better condition; that weather conditions have been ideal for good crops from California eastward, mentioning particularly Oklahoma ard Kansas, and that lack of cars and motive power is the only reason why the far western roads are not showing larger increase in net earnings, even in the face of increased expenses.
 President Yoakum of the g.. Louis and San Francisco says the wheat prospects in the states that line reaches are splendid, and believes that Kansas will produce 10C, ,0G0,000 bushels of wheat this year. Tie freight con- gestion, which he attributes more to a shortage Of motive power than cars, has required his company in the last twelve months to put in service 137 new locomotives, more efficient by 8 to 40 per cent than the old, and it will add at least 100 more.
 Vice President Bird of the Gould lines, representing some 13,000 miles, says business conditions throughout the west were never more promising than nov, and he thinks the coming year will see the largest volume of traffic that the railways have ever handled. He believes every road west of Chicago has all the tonnage assured that it can handle during the re.t of the year; and, although all roads are increasing their car equipment, ne fore sees even worse congestion than they went through last winter
 MT. J. Pierpont Morgan, looking over the country generally, says: The sit uation is most promising. In the iron and steel trade-the barometer of the Countrys growth, stability and busi ness activity-there never was go great a business" And he sums up the situ- ation by saying: Not only is there prosperity everywhere, but the prom ises are of q ccntinuat tion of that pros perity for long time to cUme.'

The Crack Of the Party Whip.

One of the representatives in the lature has made a humiliating confcs- sion. He explains his vote for the lfbc, bill intended to muzzle the newspaper g by saying that he had to support the opposed to it." adding that those wno criticise him don't know what the crack of the organization whip means" /" In explanation of why he had to sup port the bill he considered wrong he re- lates that, by agreeing to stand by the machine, he was enabled to get s4OU,- 900 appropriations for this section. '' meaning his county. Thus his price is
 now public property.
 All of which is not to the credit Of the man who admits that he voted against his conscience. He would bet ter have refused to stand by the ma chine, going back to his constituents to explain why he had failed to secure the appropriations wanted in his section. If his constituents are the right so; ': of people they would prefer no approp- riations and q man who could stand by
 his conscience to appropriations and
 Q man who is cowardly enough to stul-
 tify himself as this particular member

 | A man who is honest and sincere at heart prefers to defy the crack of the
 organization whip to sinking his self respect. District Attorney Folk Of St. ; Louis was conscientious when he prom ised to perform the duties of his office
 with fidelity and earnestness. and the i threats, the promises and the blandi3n-
 ments of the reorganization" that nom:-
 mated and elected him to office were
 scorned when it came to a choice of
 doing his duty or remaining silent when there was serious work to do.
