phesy and women pray, but peace will
come here to abide forever in this earth
only when the dreams of childhood are
the accepted charts to guide the desti-
MES of men. Events are numberless and
mighty, and no man can tell which wire
runs around the world. The nation
basking today in the quiet of content
ment and repose may still be on a dead
~ circuit, and tomorrow writhing in the
tolls of war. This is the time when
great figures must be kept in front. If
the pressure is great the material to re-
sist it must be granite and ron.'
This is a eulogy of war. This is a
declaration that the time hoped for,
prayed for, of perpetual peace, will
never come, thus eulogizing the doc
trine Of brute force and giving denial
to the hopes of the race. And this pres
dent, a candidate for reelection, is
presented as the embodiment of that
IDEAL the granite and the iron, to rep
resent the new idea of militarism. Do
you say you want to defeat the military
idea? Friends of the South. are you
trying to defeat the military idea? Let
me tell you that not one of you, North,
East or South, more fears the triumph
Of that idea than l do. If this be the
doctrine that our nation is to stand for,
it is retrogression, not progression; it
is the lowering of the ideals of the ma
ton; it is the turning backward to the
age Of force. More than that, it is a
challenge to the Christian civilization
of the world and nothing less"
This is good Bryan thunder but it
was matched, along the same lines, by
the following extracts from Martin w.
Littleton's address nominating Parker:
Take away the tribute to the dead
and all that is left is a horseman on
the slopes of San Juan. Remove the
reverend black that tells of a nations
grief and underneath is a khaki uni
form. Withhold the record made by
hands and hearts now stin and all that
is left is usurpations bold account. Pull
off the masks that wears the kindly
smile of peace and see the grim and
firm set teeth of war.
There is much talk of twisting ten
dons in the race Of life; of running out
of breath toward the open grave. The
old and honored way is still the best;
be not so strenuous as to strain your
self; nor vet so simple as to fall asleep.
There is much said by those who sit on
cushioned chairs about towards and
weaklings in the nations life. The sun
burnt farmer is just as brave as the
star-crowned soldier. The man of natu-
raj peace is a hero a hundred times to
where the man of artificial war is hero
once. Somehow of late the atmosphere
of our national life is filled with a spray
of blood; somehow the march of pro-

Vladivostok squadron in the vicinity of
the japanese coast. 1t is probable that
she has on board cargo which is among
the things declared by the Russian gov

the list as made up by Russia is very
comprehensive one. The Gaelic flies
the British flag, while the Korea, which
is also nearing the locality where the
Russian squadron is cruising is an

THE season Of catching cold is upon

THE season of catching cold is upon
II US. The cough and the sneeze and
nasal twang are to be heard on every
hand. The origin of chronic catalrh. the
most common and dreadful of diseases, is
a cold.
This is the way the chronic catarrh gen.
orally begins. A person catches cold,
which hangs on longer than usual The
cold generally starts in the head and
throat. Then follows sensitiveness of the
air passages which incline one to catch
cold very easily. At last the person has a
cold all the while seemingly, more or less
discharge from the nose, hawking, spit
ting, frequent clearing of the throat, nos
trils stopped up, full feeling in the head
and sore, inflamed throat.
The best time to treat catarrh is at the
very beginning. A bottle of Peruna prop
erly used never fails to cure common
cold, thus preventing chronic catarrh
While many people have been cured of
chronic catarrh by a single bottle of
Peruna, yet, as rule, when the caterrh
becomes thoroughly fixed, more than one
bottle is necessary to complete cure
Peruna has cured cases innumerable
Of cataITh of twenty years standing.
it is the best, if not the only internal
remedy for chronic catarrh in existence.
But prevention is far better than cure.
Every person subject to catching cold
should take Peruna at once at the slight
est symptom of cold or sore throat at
this season of the year and thus prevent
what is almost certain to end in chronic
catarrh.

SURE
The Robust Physique Can Stand More
Coffee Than a Weak One.

SOhSS thaN "CdR VIC
A young virginian says: Having
naturally robust constitution far
above the average and not having a
nervous temperament, my system was
able to resist the inroads upon it
by the use of coffee for some years but
finally the strain began to tell.
For ten years have been employ
ed as telegraph operator and type
writer by railroad in this section
and until two years ago had used cof-
fee continually from the time / was
eight years old, nearly 20 years.
THE work of operating the tele-
graph key is a great strain upon the
nerves and after the days work was
over l would feel nervous, irritable,
run down and toward the last suffer-
ed greatly from insomnia and neu-
ralgia. AS l never INDUCED in intoxi-
eating liquors, drugs or tobacco in
any form l came to the conclusion
that coffee and tea were causing the
gradual breakdown of my nervous
system and having read an article in
the Medical Magazine on the compost
ton of coffee and its toxic effect upon
the system, l was fully convinced that
coffee was the cause of my trouble.
Seeing Postum spoken of as not
having any of the deteriorating ef-
fects of coffee decided to give up the
stimulant and give Postum trial. The
result was agreeably surprising. After
time my nerves became wonderfully
strong, l can do all my work at the
telegraph key and typewriter with far
greater ease than ever before. My
weight has increased 35 pounds. my
general health keeping pace with it,
and am new man and better one"

THE STREETS OF PEKIN.
Odd Sights Seen in the Dlrtiest City
In the World.

In the World.
An American in the orient writes:
"Pekin is said to be the flthiest city
in the woodland it is. The streets,
which apparently have never been re
paired, fairly swarm with human and
animal life; caravans of stately
camels from Mongolia and Tibet; the
Pekinese cart-a creation of its own,
with no springs, but drawn by sleek
mules in gayly caparisoned harness
with outriders in mushroom hats and
red plumes, the mafoo running along
side or mounted on small donkeys;
coolies without number bearing bur
dens on their heads or shoulders;
richly adorned sedan chairs bearing
some mandarian or high Chinese Of
fetal; the biggest Cinnamon riding
the smallest of donl1eys with jingling
bells; and through it all, underneath
and around, swarmed a mass of
Chinese men, women and children;
the Manchu women in gorgeous ap-
parel with their peculiar headdress,
and with faces rough and powdered.
Such sight cannot be seen in any
other country, nor in an5 other city
combination of gorgeousness and
filth, magnifcence and squalor, un
equaled and almost unber evable."

MANY Dinner Honrs.

between and o'clock. BY the time
of Charles II. dinner had advanced to

Horace Walpole complained of dinner
being as late as o'clock and evening

How One Woman Made Sure That
Her Letters Were Mailed.
Mrs. Aikens husband was one Of the
ten or fifteen million men who forget
to post letters, concerning whom the
annals Of humor contain thousands of
jokes. He was not a bad case, for he
did not always forget, and when he
did he remembered again within two
days Mrs. Aiken was not bad case
either, for she did not scojd her hus-
band.
When she had an especially impor-
tant letter to post she either went out
to the corner herself and slipped it into
the box or lay in wait for the pastman
on his early morning round. One day
she was not feeling well. and several
Invitations to dinner for the following
week were due to be posted at once
SO she intrusted them to Mr.. Aiken,

followed him to the dining room door,

Wives are still obtained by purchase
in some parts Of Russia. In the dis
trict of Kamyshin, on the yolga, for
example, this is practically the only
way in which marriages are brought
about. The price Of pretty girl from
well to do family ranges from $10o
to 5000, and in special cases a much
higher sum is obtained. In the vii
lagos the lowest price is about $25. 1t
is customary for the fathers Of the in
tending bride and bridegroom to hag-
gle for long time over the price to be
paid for the lady. A young farmer
whose father cannot afford to pay for
