In Society.

A woman in society is obliged to
keep late hours. She must attend re-
ceptions and balls. She seldom allows
herself quiet evening at home. Her
whole time is taken up in keeping en-
gagements or entertaining in her own
home.
Her system becomes completely run
down as consequence. She soon finds
herself in a condition known as sys-
temic catarrh. This has also been
called catarrhal nervousness.
If every society woman could know
the value of Peruna at such time,
if they could realize the invigorating,
strengthening effect that Peruna would
have, how much misery could be
avoided.
Letters from society women all over
the United States testify to the fact
that Peruna is the tonic for run
down. depleted nervous system.

Evidently the wish was father to
to the announcement of the Scott
organs that Mr.. James L. Caldwell
had Withdrawn from the Senatorial
race, and agreed to be shelved with
that delightful uncertainty. the
Republican nomination for governor.
1t now appears that Mr.. Caldwell
had not agreed to anything of the
kind, and furthermore, that there
has been no arrangement on the
part of any of the candidates tor
the senatorship or the governor
ship to get out of anybody's way.
The harmony" meeting of GER
tain candidates at Washington, at
the behest of the big bosses, to
bring order out of the present chaos
Ia the Republican ranks In West
Virginia, accomplished nothing,
those most concerned declined to
attend, while the others refused to
make any sacrifice not participated
In by all. Neither Dawson, Teter
nor Dorr has Withdrawn In the In.
terest of Colonel Caldwell, nor has
the latter by any means pulled out
of the senatorial race, as ofciously
announced.
And meanwhile Colonel Schmul.
bach, also, Is very much In the race
despite the persistent declaration OF
the Scott organs that he was out OF
II.
Indeed, the fun Is not half over
yet.

Most pitiable among human u

Most pitiable among human ne
ings are the soured, loveless, an
happy old men. The system OF the
cultured and the educated extend
to such unfortupates In even a
greater degree than to the widowed
and the fatherless. For In ma
iority of cases their illness Is incura
bic, although Its responsibility rests
wholly with themselves. Seeing
nothing beautiful or inspiring In
life, they settle back into an atmos
phere of pessimism surrounding
themselves with gloom; believing
every person an enemy. they cult
vate hatred for others and an In
tense love for themselves. Any
man whose thoughts, emotions and
sentiments are thus perverted, must
of necessity become warped, mar
row, loveless and unnatural.
