Novelty in Advertising.

A novel way of introducing a new
article has been discovered in Lon
don. A number of men who suggest
by their apparel that they are grooms.
Wallets or servants of some kind are
sent about the shops to buy the article
which is being doomed. They insist
upon having this particular article and
no other, rejecting any substitute
which may be offered them.
In many cases the tradesman has
not the article in question, but is sure
to lay in stock when a few days
later drummer waits upon him with
the article in question. AS the men
are selected with view to give the
impression that their employers are
wealthy, the shopkeeper naturally
thinks that the article will bring him
the patronage of class he is anxious
to please.

Earthquake of 1870.

On November 1s. 1870, the most
severe earthquake that has ever
taken place in New England occurred.
1t was felt all over Eastern North
America and was first felt in st. John.
N B., and travelled westward. 1t is
stated in history that when the shock
was felt at Quebec the fact was tele-
graphed by the operators to Montreal
in time to call the attention of those
at the latter place to the phenomena
about thirty seconds before the shock
reached them.

solved the problem with a tire, a
cross section of which is shown in
the illustration. The advantages
claimed for it are: Nonliability to
puncture, great cushion ability owing
to its hollow construction, nonliability
to side-slip owing to its fiat tread,
absolute security, as it can not be
twisted out of the rim. English mo-
torists are now giving it trial along
the country roads in their island.

WHY HOT WEATHER MAKES WOMEN NERVOUS.
Suggestions by Dr.. Hartman.-HoW
to Combat the Nervous Depression
Incident to Warm Weather.

Nervousness is very common among
women. This condition is due to
anRmic nerve centers- The nerve cen
terS are the reservoir for nerve vitality.
These centerS become bloodless for the
want of proper nutrition.
This condition is especially noticeable
during the warm season Every sum-
mer an army of invalids are produced as
a direct result of weak nervous systems
This could easily be overcome by tho
use of Peruna- Peruna strikes at the
root of the trouble by correcting the
digestion Perfect digestion furnishes
increased nutrition for the nerve CEN
ters- Perfectly digested food gives these
reservoirs of life a vitality which Gre
ates strong, steady nerves, and in this
manner fortifies and nourishes life
Miss Blanche Grey, "a prominent young
society woman of Memphis, Tenn, in a
recent letter from 174 Alabama street,
writes: ITO a society woman whose
nervous force is often taxed to the
utmost from lack of rest and irregular
meals, know Of nothing which Is of SO
much benefit as PerHna. I took it a
few months ago when I felt my strength
giving way, and 1t soon made itself
manifest In giving me new strength
and health. Miss Blanche Grey.
Pe.ru-na Contains No Narcotics.
One reason why Peruna has found
permanent use in so many homes is that
it contains no narcotic of any kind Pc
runa is perfectly harmless. 1t can be
used any length of time without acquir-
ing a drug habit. Peruna does not pro-
duce temporary results. 1t is perma-
nent in its effect.
1t has no bad effect upon the system,
and gradually eliminates catarrh by re-
moving the cause of catarrh. There
are a multitude of homes where Peruna
has been used off and on for twenty
years. Such thing could not be pos
sible if Peruna contained any drugs Of
a narcotic nature.
At this season of the year we are
peculiarly liza BILE to infiammations of the
stomach and bowels. 1t is the part of
wisdom to learn how to cut them short
and in the easist and quickest manner.
Peruna does this by its peculiar power
over all forms of catarrhal troubles.

BIG BOOM FOR

A Flattering Endorsement
By Western Penman, the

about the Duluth Business Uni

"The Duluth Business University

ter Mr.. McCarter belongs to
the class of square" school men,
who believe in the real dignity Of
their calling and who will not
stoop to any kind Of fakery.
The school gets a good patron
age, just as it ought, but rot any
more than it's merits justify. for
Mr.. McCarter is leaving nothing
undone to give the very best, and
he knows how to go after it.
The fact that the Western Pen
man has an immense circulation
in the United States and Canada
is a recognized authority and
critic on the curriculum methods
and management of business col.
leges, in both countries and the
dictator Of our present system of
business penma nship makes such
empathic endorsement by it what
any business college in this coun-
try might well be proud of. We
certainly congratulate Mr.. Nc
Carter on the success and high
standing in the community Of his
