Mr.. Albee's Opinion.

Alpine, Cal, June 6.-Mr. T. NJ.
Albee, our postmaster has expressed
an opinion based on his own experience
which will. no doubt be of interest to
many. Mr.. Albee is man of few
words, but his we'll known truthful
ness and uprightness of character adds
much weight to any statement he
makes. He says:

Absent Treatment.

! A young mother left her baby with
her obliging mOther-in-law. one night,
in order to attend the wedding of q
relative who lived In town about a
hundred miles distant. The young
woman, apparently free from all fam
lily cares. spent an enjoyable evening;
but just as the newly weuued couple
were preparing to depart on the mid
| night train, an expression of acute an
xiety flashed across the young moth
er's cOuntenance.
"Oh, George" she exclaimed, clutch
ing her husbands arm: There was
one thing that ] forgot to tell your
mother to do for the baby. and he'll
never go to sleep without it. You must
go right out and send her tele-
gram"
Nonsense" said George, this isn't
the first baby she's taken care Of"
But George, she'll never think of
doing just the right thing, and the
baby is so perfectly trained that he
won't accept any substitute. l know
he's crying hard at this very minute"
She was right. A hundred miles
away a weary grandmother was at her
wits end because she could think Of
nothing that would pacify a waiting
infant who was most wretchedly sleepy
yet utterly unable to go to sleep. She
was pacing YEARLY back and forth in
the nursery to the accompaniment of
her grandson's bowls when the door
bell rang and her daughter-in-law's
telegram arrived. Tearing 1t open the
tired, perplexed grandmother read:
Lay baby on his stomach In the
crib"
Two minutes later. the baby. adjust

u. S. SENATOR FROM SOUTH CAROLINA
Recommends Pe-ru-na
For Dyspepsia and Stomach Trouble
Catarrh Of the Stomach Is Generally
Called Dyspepsia Something
to Produce Artificial Diges-
tiOn Is Generally Taken.
Hence, Pepsin, Pancreatin and Host
OF Other Digestive Remedies
Has Been Invented.
These Remedies Do Not Reach the
Seat Of the Difficulty, Which
Is Really Catarrh.

Elk u. 8. Senator M. G.. Butler, from
South Carolina, was senator from that
state for two terms. In q recent letter
to The Peruna Medicine Co., from
Washington, ID. c.. says:
81 can recommend Peruna for dys-
pepsia and stomach trouble. ! have
been using your medicine for . short
period and feel very much relieved.
Ii Is indeed wonderful medicine be-
sides good tonic. I'm. G. Butler.
The only rational way to cure dys-
pepsia is to remove the catarIh. Pc
runa cures catarrh. PeruDa does not
produce artificial digestion. 1t cures
catarrh and leaves the stomach to per-
form digestion in a natural way. This
is vastly better and safer than resorting
to artificial methods or narcotics.
Peruna has cured more cases of dys-
pepsia than all other remedies co n
bined, simply because it cures catarrh
wherever located. If catarrh is locat-
ed in the head, Peruna cures it. II
catarrh has fastened itself in the throat
or bronchial tubes, Peruna cures it.
When catarrh becomes settled in the
stomach, Pernna cures it, as well in
this location as in any other.
Peruna is not simply remedy for
dyspepsia. Peruna is catarrh remedy.
Peruna cures dyspepsia because it 10

WATER IN DESERT CACTUS.
Natives Are Accustomed to Tap Plant
When They Are Thirsty.

Natives Are Accustomed to Tap Plant
When They Are Thirsty.
The marvellous strength Of desert
plants Is well known, but we are at
loss to explain the source or rea-
sons Of their luxuriance In regions
where only a few inches of water fall
during.the year, and that little il i'm.
mediately drunk up by the torrid sun.
What enables the yucca to thrust its
head through thirty feet Of gypsum
and sand or the barrel cactus to store
enormous quantities Of water and to
hold the water for months, perhaps
years, or the sumach to cling 30 ten.
aciously to Its ground when every
thing else 10 swept away, are Ques-
tons which none can satisfactorily an
swer. No less marvellous and mex.
plicable 10 the mesquite shrub, which
sometimes has roots over fifty feet
long. and other desert plants whose
hairy coverings and resinous coatings
prevent the evapora tion Of moisture.
These secrets may soon be discovered,
however, as the Carnegie institution
has established a desert botanical lab
oratory at Tucson to study them.
1t was among the desert hills west
Of Torres, Mex. The Indian cut the
top from a plant about Eve feet high
and with q blunt stake Of palo verde
pounded to pulp the upper six or
eight inches Of white flesh In the
standing trunk. From this. handful
by handful, he squeezed the water into
the bowl he had made In the top of
the trunk, throwing the discarded pulp
on the ground. By this process he
secured two or three quarts Of clear
water. slightly salty and slightly bitter
to the taste, but Of far better quality
than some Of the water a desert trav-
eler is occasionally compelled to use.
The Papago, dipping this water up In
his hands, drank 1t with evident pleas
ure and said that his people were &C.
customed, not only to secure their
drinking water In this way In times
Of extreme drouth. but that they used
It also to mix their meal preparatory
to cooking It. into bread.-National
