A days worry is more exhaustna
than a week Of work.
Usually the more law costs the less
justice there is in it.
Silence may be golden. but a good

A DMIRAL SCHLEY, one of the fore
y most notable heroes of the Nineteenth
Century. "A name that starts terror in the heart
OF every Spaniard. 4 man of steady nerve, clear
head, undaunted courage and prompt decision.
Approached by friend recently, his opin-
ION was asked as to the efficacy of Peruna,
the national catarrh remedy Without the
slightest hesitation he gave this remedy his
endorsement. 1t appeared on later CONVEX
satlon that Peruna has been used in his fam
ny, where it is favorite remedy
Such endorsements serve to indicate the
wonderful hold that Peruna has upon the
minds of the American people 1t is out of
the question that so great and famous man
as Admiral Schlcy could have any other rea-
son for giving his endorsement to Peruna
than his positive conviction that the remedy
is all that he says it IS.
The fact is that Peruna has overcome all CD.

OUR BONDS HoME.oWNED.
Fewer Outside This Country Than Those
of Any Other Land.

Probably fewer United States bonds
are owned outside of the country than
those of any other first-class nation
in the world. This is largely account
ed for by the fact that the bonds have
a peculiar value to the national banks
as a basis for circulation which raises
their market price to point where
they cease to be desirable for ordin-
airy investors. The total Of bonds held
by foreigners to-day is 5,065, $50. OF
this amount individuals own less than
| $4O0O.OGO; the rest belong to the for
eign insurance companies doing bust
ness in the United States. Before
foreign insurance company can do bus
mess in the United States it must de-
post with the Insurance Commission
err of that particular State it seeks to
invade a certain amount of bonds reg
istered in the name of the Insurance
Commissioner for the benefit of the
policyholders Of the company in that
State. Thus, if the Phoenix Insurance
Company, Of London. England. desires
to do business in Ohio it deposits with
The Insurance Commissioner an amount
Of bonds determined by the value of
business, inscribed as follows: THE
Insurance Commissioner Of the State
of Ohio in trust for the policyhOlders
of the Phoenix Insurance Company, Of
London, England, residing in Ohio"
OF the individual foreign holdings Of
United States bonds nearly half Of
them, for some reason, are in Cuba.
Our neighbors are doubtless attract
ed by the security which the bond Of
fers.
In earlier stages Of the country's
history large blocks Of it's bonds were
sold abroad and branches of the Treas
ury Department We're opened in Lon
don for their transfer and exchange |
The French people to-day are great |
holders of the bonds Of various other |
but they are handling very |
few of the United States. Quite a
part of the loan made by the last |
Cleveland administration went into the
hands Of foreign investors at an early
date in it's history. But with the in
crea sing means of the American peo-
pie and the growing demand OF the
banks, these securities have
begun to come back. until now the
world may be searched almost in.vain
for them.-New York Post. q

position and has won its way to the hearts Of
the people. The natural tinidity which SO
many people have felt about giving endorse
ments to any remedy is giving way. Graft
tude and desire to help others has inspired
thousands of people to give public testimonials
for Peruna who heretofore would not have
consented to such publicity.
Never before in the annals of medicine has
it happened that SO many men of national
and international reputation have been will
ing to give unqualified and public endorse
ments to proprietary remedy. No amount
of advertising could have accomplished such
result. Peruna has won on it's own merits.
Peruna cures catarrh of whatever phase. or
location in the human body That is why it
receives so many notable and unique endorse
ments.
