Why Old People are Especially Liable
to Systemic Catarrh.
When old age comes on, catarrhal dis.
eases come also. Systemic cstsvyt is
almost universal in old people.
This explains why Peruna has become
so indispensable TO old people. Peruna
is their safeguard. Peruna is the only
remedy yet devised that meets these
cases exactly.
Such cases cannot be treated locally
nothing but an effective systemic REM
edy could cure them. This is exactly
what Peruna is.
If you do not receive prompt and sat

MlLLET'S EDUCATION.

Millet, the famous French painter,
was born Of peasant folk. from whom
he had the habit Of simple living and
a powerful physique. From them, too,
writes the author Of Jean Francois
Millet and the Barbizon School," he
obtained his great tenderness toward
the people, whom he was destined to
delineate SO powerfully.
By working with his folk upon the
farm he had not only the opportunity
of incessantly watching the appear
ance of figures in different sorts of
toll, but he obtained as well an actual
knowledge of the farm laborer's crafts.
He learned how to plow and how to
sow; he learned all about the pecu-
liar nature of all kinds of crops and
every kind of domestic animal; and
he became acquainted with the dis
comfort, with the agony that arises
from continuous bodily exertiOn, with
all that farm laborer suffers from
exposure to scorching sun and biting
wind or frost
Millet was happy in his instructors.
His great-uncle, Charles Millet,
priest, divided his time between la
boring upon the farm and giving in
struction to his little nephews and
pieces. At all times this priest i'm
pressed upon his granddaughter the ne
cessity of being industrious, upright
and rageous; and from him pro-
ceeded the impulse of that education
that sent Millet more suitably
equipped for the task that lay before
name has been written large in his
tory.
1t is said that Vergil's words, ut is
the hour when the great shadows de.
scend upon the plain" first revealed to
the boy the beauty Of his own sur
roundings, and first lighted that fire
which was to be productive Of some
of the finest paintings of evening
scenes that the world is likely ever
to possess.
AS to his Bible and Vergil, he read
and reread them. and always in Latin;
and Sensier says, Il have never heard
more eloquent translator Of these
two books" Instead of being an H.
literate person, indeed, when he went
to Paris, Millet, The Wild Man of
the Woods" as he was called by De-
laroche's pupils, among whom he
found himself, was already a cultivat-
ed man. His education had been far
better than if he had been an ordinary
member of bourgeois, or even Of a
noble family. Its great charaeteris-
plicity and its refinement-the very
characteristics that make his own
works lovable.

Greatest Things Are the Simplest.
The trouble with us is that we look
too high and too far away for ou-
chances. We forget that the greatest
things are the simplest. In hunting for
roses, we trample the daisies under our
feet. We are blind to the chances and
blessings near us because we are look
ing so far away for them. Every
thing depends upon the power of the
mind to see opportunities. 1t is the
eye that can see the chance, the pluck
and determination to lay hold of 1t and
wiring from it every possibility that we
lack, rather than the chance ''to make
good."-Success Magazine.

LAID THE LAST RAIL.
Completion of the New Road From Salt
Lake to San Pedro.

Senator Clarke of Montana last night re-
ceived a telegram from Chief Engineer E.
G. Tilton of the San Pedro. California and
Salt Lake City railroad. notifying him that
that road had yesterday connected by the
laying of the last rail at mile 151, west Of
Calientes, New.
This completion of the railroad marks a
very important step in transcontinental
railroading Senator Clark is the president
of the new railroad. which is 500 miles in
length, from Salt Lake to Los Angeles.
The building of the road was begun three
years ago to connect with the line of road
twenty-seven miles from Los Angeles to
San Pedro harbor, which is being improved
by the government, and which promises to
be an important seaport. One remarkable
thing about this road is the fact that while
$35 600 600 has been spent upon 1t in three
years, not a single bond has been issued.
The money has been provided by the build
ers of the road. Additional extensive plans
for the improvement of the road have been
made but already the connections of the
road have been rebuilt in the most substan-
tial manner.

while on the lookout for torpedo boats he
saw the outlines of a strange Scraft and
message to the flagship, saying: Torpedo
boats follow u.s.
The flagship answered. Report how
many torpedo boats follow YOU
Captain Wallerond's answer: I'VE pro-
ceed with lights extinguished. They at
tack us from all sides at a distance of
about ten cable lengths.
The Kamtchatka proceeded. but Captain
Wallerond did not see any more strange
craft and did not hear any further shots.
Captain Clado of the admirals flagship
gave a circumstantial recital of seeing two
torpedo boats. He said: Il first saw a
strange craft through my night glass and
then the searchlights convinced us that 1t
was torpedo boat. At the same time the
signal officer reported another boat which
almost collided with us. We maneuvered
to avoid collision and escape torpedo
which might be discharged The search
lights then disclosed a torpedo boat imme-
diately in front Of the flagship, about If
teen cable lengths away. We saw this one
much better than the other as the search
lights lighted 1t up. The torpedo boats
gradually drew Off At first we could dis
tinguish only their bows, but we afterward
saw them completely. The first boat dis
appeared after three or four minutes. The
second was visible much longer"

ALL PAPERS REFERRED.
Rear Admiral Barker to Consider Case
of Commander Oliver.

All the papers at the Navy Department
bearing on the recent collision between the
United States supply ship Culgoa and the
lumber schooner Wilson and Hunting have
been referred to Rear Admiral Barker,
commanding the North Atlantic fleet, to
which the Culgoa is attached. with view
to the institution of court-martial pro-
ceedings against Commander James H.
Oliver, who had command of the naval
vessel at the time of the accident, for
alleged neglect of duty. This action was
taken on the recommendation of the naval
court of inquiry, which investigated the
case some time ago.
The collision occurred off the coast of
New Jersey on a foggy night several weeks
ago and resulted in the loss of the schooner
and the drowning of the captain and his
wife and two members of the crew. The
Culgoa is now cruising in the West Indies
delivering supplies to the vessels engaged
in the naval maneuvers.
