RACE SUICIDE.

T used to snser at President Roo:e- Velte widely quoted remark about race suicide" said a West Philadelphia man who is the father of constantly in- creasing family. 1T used to think it was all bunCombe, but I have recently had occasion ito change my views. You see last winter my wife joined a cinch party, composed of women who belong to our set out in the Forty-ninth street settlement, and occasionally she com plained beoause the children kept her from attending the afternoon meetings of the club. I talked with her about it. and discovered a curious state of af- fairs. There are twenty women in the club, and all but two of them are mar ried. Now, would you believe it? My wife has as many children as the other eighteen put together. How many children have I? Ohl Quite a respect able number. Only four!"-PhiladcI- phia Record.

T. U. and or the 1. O. c. T. are of the opinion that that was a pretty good shot but that the lightning needs a little more practice.
 The last depreciation was a parting shot and was committed about half past three o'clock in the morning. The clouds were breaking away and there was only an occasional flash of light ming, even that seemed to be in the distance and was followed by TO crash of thunder.
 Mrs J. w. Blankenship, who wi.h her husband is living at the residence of Mrs. Wilson at the corner of Eighth and Jefferson street was awakened by the ringing of the telephone in another room. She went to answer it and saw what she believed to be a blaze breaking out of the top of. refrig- orator near by. Seizing a bucket of water she threw it upon the supposed blaze and in doing so she closed q circuit and received a shock which rendered her senseless and from which she has not yet entirely recovered. One shoulder was badly wrenched and her left hip was burned.
 She recovered from the shock sui ficiently tD scream and awakened her husband. She told him that the house was on fire. When he appeared there was f1ame running along a telephone. wire and it soon reached the roof plate. He extinguished it with q bucket of water In the mean time the neighborhood was aroused and II. l.. Hubert who lives across the street turned in the old fashioned fire alarm. three revolver shots. Another man was hurrying to the nearest alarm sta- ton when he was called back and told that the fire was out

n TONIC Is a medicine that gives tons
 to some part of the system. Ther0
 are different kinds of tonics, bus the tonic most needed in this country, where catarrh is so prevalent, is . tonic that operates on the mucous mem branes.
 Perura Is tonic to the mucous mem branes of the whole body. It gives tons to the capillary circulation which con- stitutes these delicate membranes.
 PerUna is a specific ia its operation upon the mucous membrane. It is . tonic that strikes ct the root of all ca- tarrhal affections. It gives tone to the minute blood vessels and the terminal nerve flores. CatGrrh cannot exist long here Peruna is used intelligently. Peruna seeks out catarrh in all the hid- den parts of the body.
 Paul Landrum writing from Atlanta, Ga, says:
 "In January last I began the use of your Peruna and Manalin for what was termed organic heart trouble. At that time I could scarcely walk to my place of business without stopping to rest and on arrival felt completely exhausted. Had severe painsin my heart and general dizziness. After using the first bottle of Pernna began to improve and today feel that am a sound man and work fourteen hours a day without any bad feeling ."-PaCI Landrum.
 A. NJ. Ikerd. an employee of the c. B. C; c. k, R., West Burlington, Ia., writes;
 "I had catarrh of the stomach and small intestines for a number of years. 1 went to e number of doctors and got no relief. Finally one of my doctors sent me to Chicago and I met the same fate. They said they could do nothing for me, that had cancer of the stomach and there.was no cure. almost thought the same, for my breath was something awful. I could hardly stand it, it was SC offensive. I could not eat anything without great misery, and l gradually grew worse.
 "Finally got one of your books, and concluded l would try Peruna, and thank God, I found a relief and cure for thas dreadful disease. I took five bottles Of Peruna and two of Manalin, and now feel like new man. There Is nothing better than Peruna, and I keep bottle in my house all the time."-A. NJ. Iksrd.
 If you do not derive prompt and satis- factory results from the use of Peruna, write at once to pr. Hartman, giving a full statement of your case and he will be pleased to give you his valuable ad- vice gratis.

THE SPIRIT OF OUTING.

At this time of the year the aver
age man begins to have longing for a
little closer contact with nature al
the end Of a fishpole.
The desire to shoot and kill that
comes along in the fall is absent and
there is an odor of flowers in the all
and sentiment in the heart.
All these feelings are catered to
in a most delightful manner by the
magazine called by the name of this
editorial
The contents and the illustrations
are all of the seductive, charming
character that invites to outdoor life
and makes a man remember when he
wandered by the brookside with his
sweetheart.
The May number has three articles
on fishing-one on the good old kind
where you sat on the bank and
caught anything from a bullhead to
swapping turtle. The rest of the
contents are of great variety, but all
inclined to give a man the spring
fever.

Only rich man or a professional

Only a rich man could afford to cir

Only the professional spellbinder
could get the ears of the voters to get
a nomination for governor or United

These features were presented be-

PRESIDENTIAL lssuEs.

The tariff question is certain to be
factor in the coming Presidential
campaign. although it is doubtful II
the Democrats will unite on making 1t
their main issue, In both parties are
to be found divergent opinions on the
tariff. Some Republicans favor tarlff
revision and others believe there is as
yet no need for altering the present
schedules. The democrats disagree far
more radically, One of many indica-
tions Of this has seen just before con
gress adjourned, when Leader Will
liams followed Bourke Cockran's fery
free trade speech with the declaration
that free trade was Impossible.
All Republicans, many Democrats
and most Of the nations of the world
believe In the principle of protection.
Even England is giving up her free
trade ideas. In this country, with
free trade as an issue, the Democracy
would be almost annihilated. But there
are the questions OF tarin revision,
reciprocity. etc, How would these
