On Saturday night one of our prom
inent preachers had an amusing ex-ss
perience. Some time Saturday after
noon gentleman called on the minis
ter and told him he would bring his:
honey around about eight o'clock, so
they could be married. So ar the8ap-5
pointed hour everything was IN readi-
ness at the parsonage for the coming
event. Eight o'clock passed. and then
half past came, soon followed BY nine.
and the preacher began to suspect
that something had gone wrong. He
waited until ten, then he gave 1T mp
and Went to bed. While he was walt
ing the monotony OF the evening was
broken up a little by the appearance
of another man and woman who wish
ed to be joined. so an unexpected
dollar was added to the minister's ex-
chequer. ss; sias
After the quietude OF the night had
settled down upon the home. and all
the household was enrapt in s1umber,
and it was nigh the midnight hour, a
loud rapping was heard at the minis
ter's door. He called to see who was
there. and his man, who wanted to-
get married, answered. The minister
was attired in his sleeping robe. but
the man said. that was all right He
apologized for being so late. saying
they couldn't help 1t. He then re-S
qnested the minister to step out TO the
street as the couple wanted o. be-
married in the buggy The pastor in
sisted on getting more clothes and
did slip on his trousers and then IN
the stiffness of the night he pro-
nounced the wedding; ceremony and
sent the happy couple on their way
rejoicing.

Catarrh OF the Stomach is Generally
Called Notwithstanding to
Produce Artificial Digestion
Is Generally Taken.
Hence, Pepsin, Pancreatin and a Host
OF Other Digestive Remedies
Has Been Invented.
These Remedies Do Not Reach tho
Seat Of the Difficulty, Which
Is Really Catarrh.

TX. u. s. Senator M. G. Butler from
- South Carolina, was Senator from
that State for two terms. In a
recent letter to Tho Pcruna Medicine
Co., from Washington, ID. c., says:
al can recommend Pernns for dys.
pepsia and stomach trouble. I have
been using your medicine for a short
period and ] feel very much relieved.
II is indeed q wonderful medicine be.
sides a good tonic. "-M. G. Butler.
The only rational way to nj dys-
pepsia is to remove the catarrh. Peruna
cures catarrh. Peruna does not produce
artificial digestion. 1t cures catarrh
and leaves the stomach to perform diges-
ton in a natural way. This is vastly
better and safer than resorting to arti-
fetal methods or narcotics.
Pcruna has cured more cases of dys-
pepsia than all other remedies com.
bined, simply because it cures catarrh
wherever located. II catarrhi is located
in the head, Peruna cures it. If catarrh
has fastened itself in the throat or
bronchial tubes, Peruna cures 1t. When
catarrh becomes settled in the stomach,
Peruna cures it, as well in this location
as in any other.
Peruna is not simply a remedy for
dyspepsia. Peruna is n catarrh remedy.
Peruna cures dyspepsia because it is
generally dependent upon catarrh.

The Diaries and the Doctors.


One man that has the handling Of
a good deal of milk for Chicago tells
the writer that he has an rangemen
with the doctors in several towns
from which he buys milk, by which
the doctors report to him the presence
Of any contagious disease on any farm
in the locality, whether that farm is
producing milk or not. In this way 1t,
is possible for him to know about the
conditions under which milk is being
made for his trade. This he finds to
be a very good plan. In the case of
the contagious disease being on the
farm Of a man that is selling him
milk, he a take measures to prevent
the sending out of that milk. On the
other hand, If the disease is on the
farm of a nan that is not selling him
milk, he can serve a notice on the
men that are selling him milk that
they are not to receive the milk from
such a farm. If this practice were
made general it would greatly i'm
prove the situation as to the spread
of contagious diseases by means of
milk. Cases are constantly coming to
the attention of the public where some
man that is supplying perhaps only a
very small amount of milk to the
trade is the mean of scattering dis.
ease5 that ravage communities using
the milk. Every man should have too
much conscience to sell milk when he
has a deadly disease in his family. but
actual experience demonstrates that
that is just the time he will sell his
product, as a general thing, for the
reason that his needs are greatest at
that time. This phase of human ma
ture must be taken into consideration.

Demand for Sweet Cream Butter.

Demand for Sweet Cream Butter.
Sweet cream butter is butter that
has not been sailed and not butter
made from unripened ream That
the demand for this kind of butter Is
increasing is a remarkable fact. The
creamery at Ringwood, Illinois, is ma
king about 10000 pounds Of butter a
month and all, except that used by
the patrons, is being taken by a large
dairy company Of Chicago. Gradually
there has been an increase in the de-
mand for unsalted butter, till now
two-thirds of all the butter supplied
by that creamery is of this kind. That
is, about 10000 pounds Of unsalted
butter is being supplied by this one
creamery every month and there are
numerous other creameries making
some sweet cream butter. At first the
demand was from the foreigners al.
most wholly, and especially from the
Jews. Indeed, the Jews were such
great users Of this unsalted butter
that the factory men dubbed 1t Jew
butter" But 1t is now losing that
Characterization, for the reason that
many native Americans are using it
instead Of the sailed article. We have
supposed that the demand for the
fresh article was to be confined to
European countries like France, but
we are evidently mistaken. The but.
ter is making great Roadway in Eng.
land, where the demand has always
previously been for sailed butter. This
in our country at least marks a new
phase Of creamery development.

Under the caption, "The Union Pa
cifc Railroad and Louisiana Terri
tory" the new Worlds Fair folder is
sued by the advertising department of
the Union Pacific, which has attracted
such general attention, recites these
interesting facts:
while the construction OF the
Union Pacific Railroad, it's trials and
triumphs, are a part Of the history of
the United States, the important part
played by this railroad in the develop
ment of the Louisiana Purchase can
hardly be estimated. In the building
up of this vast domain it has been one
of the chief factors.
One hundred years ago the popula-
ton of the region was estimated at
10000. Up to the inception of the
Union Pacific Gin 1900 it had in
bered rel 10, 900 of inhabitants.
In this wonderful growth, with its stu.
pendous increase in all the many-sided
phases of commercial, material and
intellectual prosperity, the Union Pa
cific-as a glance at the map will
show-has had a conspicuous share.
1t has opened vast regions of fertile
country to settlers, and brought great
areas of an unknown and unproduc-
tive wilderness into close communion
with metropolitan centers and mar
kets. Thriving cities, towns and ham
let's, through its efforts, have sprung
up in every direction.
1t may be of interest to know that
the total number of manufacturing
plants, and the value of their outputs,
combined with that of the national
products as reported in the ensus of
1900, give an aggregate production for
the Louisiana region of 5 $500, 000, 900
annually, or 223 times the original pur-
chase price. The same census reports
$4,000 also show the total population
to be 13,343,255, Of which $685. 96 in
habitants are living in the states and
territories reached by the Union Pa
cifc. On the 1900 censu figures, 1t is
estimated that the true wealth Of the
Louisiana purchase a be stated at
about $13,051 1868, 1859, Of which $780,
621 1897 Is represented in the states
Icached by this great railroad"

"scaIdins with Cold Water"

In a visit to a creamery recently the
writer noted that the combined churns
and butter workers were in perfect
condition and that no smell could be
detected. These churns had been in
use for a year. The buttermaker
laughed when the condition of the
churns were mentioned to him and
said that he never had trouble in keep
ing his churns perfectly sweet and
clean, though he knew of factories
where the combined utensils were al
ways in a condition that was not sat
isfactory. Some of them wouldn't
bear looking into, unless the nose
were kept out. He declared the trou.
BILE to be that too many buttermakers
"scald out their churns with cold wa.
ter"

The CARNIVAL
OPENS TONIGHT
EVERYTHING TO BE CoMPLET-
ED FOR OPENING
MANY MEN AT WORK
All Indications Are That the Cax,i.
val Will Be a Very Fine One
in Every Way.

The opening of the Druids' big
Jahr Market this evening at South II
and Eighth streets will be thrown
open to the public about 7.30 or on
arrival of the parade, which starts
at Z p. m.
Inside the spacious grounds the
visiting crowds will be surprised 10
view the complete transformation
which will be found to have taken
place there during the past twenty
four hours. Where yesterday there
appeared nothing to attract the eve
other than several frames of new
lumber, a dozen recently construct
ed stages and general appearance of
preparation for the coming of some
unusual event, is now city Of
glittering fronts, many tents. hun
dreds of gailv colored flags and a
thousand or more incandescent globes
and arc lamps all ready for darkness
to fall enabling this light equipment
to turn night into the glare Of bright
est MONDAY.
The great Mundy shows which are
to furnish the attractions arrived on
the c., c. & l.. railway at II clock
last night. The long train that
brought them was due about clock
in the afternoon, but as Mr.. Mundy's
ears are all over sixty feet in length
the Erie & Western had TO run them
at a low rate of speed and that with
some long waits on side tracks caused
the delay.
Crowds of people were on the
grounds all day yesterday as well as
at the depot waiting to see the show
train come in and went home disap-
pointed.
All night long a small army Of per-
fectly disciplined workmen kept busy
erecting tents. fronts, the high div
er's 13S-foot ladders, the death trap
loop structure in the hippodrome, the
circus seats in the various shows and
doing countless other necessary work.
until by the breakfast hour this morn
ing every rope had been made
ready and each detail completed in
readiness for the opening.
The weeks fun will continue after
noon and night from the opening to-
night and including Saturday night,
and every indication points TO the af-
fair developing into record-brek-
| ing success.
