"People cannot live in the variable eli

catarrhal affections. The wide and

Hon. Robert w. Davis, member OF

Peruna cures catarrh. That is all
that DR.. Hartman claims for it. But
catarrh assumes various phases in the
human system.
A. he day was when men of piomin-
ence hesitated to give their testimonials
to preparatory medicines for publica-
ton. This remains true today of most
preparatory medicines. But Peruna
has become so justly famous, its merits
are known to SO many people of high
and low stations. that no one hesitates
to see his name in print recommending
Peruna.

TOMS CLEVER TRICK.

This Big Elephant Could Really Make
Month Organ Sound.
Many New York girls and boys, as
we'll as out-of-town young visitors to
the city, will recall Tom, the big per
forming elephant who furnished daily
amusement for his young audiences
with tricks and other marvellous per
formances in the Central Park menag-
erie. That Is to say, his performances
seemed marvellous for a heavy elephant
whost natural position was on all
tours, and who did not speak English
even though it almost seemed as If he
understood it. Old Tom finally beca anne
so dangerous that about two years ago
he had to be quietly put away by Il
dose of poison.
Perhaps the most remarkable Of
Toms tricks was one of which his
trainer was very proud, not only be
cause it was difficult, but because it
was novel as well. Tom would stand
upon his hind legs on a strong box,
take from his keepers hand a boys
mouth organ, gracefully curl his trunk
back until it rested on his forehead
and then alternately blow and draw
his breath through the musical reeds
of the toy.
Bears have been trained to beat
drum and to wrestle, seals have been
taught to play ball and ponies to play
see-saw, but Toms proud keeper
thought his pet overtopped all other
performing large animals in this novel
musical solo.-St. Nicholas.
