What used to be called female diseases
by the medical profession is now called
pelvic catarrh. 1t has been found by
experience that catarrhal diseases of the
pelvic organs are the cause Of most
cases of female diseases.
DR.. Hartman was among the first OF
Americas greatest physicians to make
this discovery. For forty years he has
been treating diseases peculiar TO women
and long ago he reached the conclusion
that woman entirely free from ca
tarrhal affection of these organs would
not be subject to female diseases. He.
therefore, began using Peruna for these
cases and found it SO admirably adapted
70 their permanent cure that Peruna has
now become the most famous remedy
for female diseases ever known. Every
where the women are using it and prais-
Ing it. Peruna is not a palliative sim
ply; 1t cures by removing the cause of
female diseases.
PeruDa builds up the nerves and re-
stores the appetite and digestion.
DR.. Hartman has probably cured more
women Of female ailments than any
other living physician. He makes these
cures simply by using and recommend
ing PeTuna.

THE CAPITOL AS A WHOLE.
Little Hope That IL win Ever n
Alphabetically Perfect.


Little Hope That IL win Ever Ne
ArchitecturslIy Perfect
1t Is not the contention even OF en-
thusiasts that the capitol f. or ever
will be a complete and perfect whole.
There is little hope that II will ever
be entirely finished and still less that
1t may attain perfection. Apropos OF
the dome. for instance, IL may be re-
called that the rhetorical and fastid.
ious Ruskin does not admit OF iron as
a constructive material, and on those
grounds inveighed dIsdainfully against
the spire OF Rouen cathedral. Purity
and pettishness aside, there are other
reasons why the building fails 10 con-
form with the essentials OF really great
architecture. As far as the interior is
concerned, the situation is anything
but sublime. and II is hence a pleas
ure to know that Elliott Woods, su.
perintendent OF the capitol building
and grounds, has under advisement q
proposition for the rehabilitation of the
rotunda. Yet the faults OF the capitol
appear In measure inevitable to those
who know and treasure its history.
but merely venerable shortcomings in
cidental to growth and development.
Considering the Importance OF the pro-
spectiyc nlterat tons and extensions, the
evolution OF the building seems to have
entered upon an approximately nnal
stage. and II Is gratifying to know that
congress, the superintendent and the
consulting architects realize the Gig
nifty and seriousness OF the task i'm
hand. Something OF the old simplicity
should guide and chasten each effort.
To this simplicity should also DO added
reverence fer those traditional ideals
and aspirations which are. happily,
a country's or an individuals most
cherished heritage.
The panorama, once its several fea-
lures are supplied, wifi present a ma
testic and inspiring spectacle. Grouped
about the spacious court will be Eve
superb structures-the capitol on the
west, the senate and house Office build
ings to the north and south and the
Congressional library and it's compan-
ion on the east. To the average eye
the capitol will offer little change.
There will merely be n grateful gain
In repose and proportion. 1t win, as
before, continue the focal point. the
Keynote of the composition. Despite
Its immensely, there appears to be
nothing that is pompous or pretentious
In the scheme as at present outlined.
1t Is but the logical fulfllment OF
plans, long since formulated, which
are the fitting symbol Of a subsequent

SAVINGS OF ROYALTY.

How European Rulers Pat Away
Money For Rainy Days.
1t will no doubt astonish a large
number OF people that kings and
queens, like poorer mortals who have
the gift OF prudence, are, with few
exceptions, as economical as is consist
emit with their high position, and every
year put by some portion OF their saw
ings for a rainy day.
Better than anybody else, perhaps
monarchs know that 1t is money makes
the mare go, and that to spend all
their income as they get 1t is just as
great folly in themselves as In their
subjects. The late Quee~ Victoria was
one OF the thriftiest OF monarchs, and,
though her viii has never been for
lieve that the fortune she left was
very large one.
The modern king is as rule very
practical gentleman. or some 1t Is
not too much to say that they do not
place implicit confidence In the nation
OF which they are the head. OF nearly
all OF them 1t is certainly true that
they do not put ell their eggs into one
basket.
Every year the present car and CA
rina OF Russia intrust a large portion
OF their private savings to the British
and French national banks. Alexander
H.. grandfather OF the Emperor Mich
oias. was economical In a high degree,
and the money he saved is said to have
run well into four millions sterling.
BY his Will he left legacies to various
members of the imperial family, which
swallowed up third OF his vast for
tune. the remaining two-thirds being
given. to lady OF the court who had
welded the sovereign without mount
ing the throne. AS this lady was not
OF the royal line, 1t was impossible
that she could be recognized as en-
press, and the legacy OF two-thirds of
the monarchs fortune was the COM
pensation Alexander accorded to his
morganatic spouse.
Alexander III. during his compare
lively short reign also saved a con.
Siderable fortune, and this he left by
will to the present Queen Alexandra.
