GEORGE WASHINGTON.
Novel Portrait of Our Illustrioun
First President by French
man.

1t is not my intention to exaggerate; l
wish only to express the impression Gen.
Washington has left on my mind. Brave
without temerity, laborious without am
bition, generous without prodigality, no
BILE without pride, virtuous without Sc
verify, he seems always to have confined
himself within those limits where
the virtues, by clothing themselves In
more lively but more changeable and
doubtful colors, may be mistaken for
faults. This IS the seventh year that he
has commanded the army and that he
has obeyed congress; more need not be
said. Condo was intrepid, Turenne pru-
dent, Eugene adroit. Catinat disinter-
ested. 1t is not thus that Washington
will be characterized. 1t will be said OF
him: At the end of long civil war he
had nothing with which he could re-
proach himself.
II anything could be more marvellous
than such character, it is the unanimi-
| ty of the public suffrage in his favor.
Soldier, magistrate, people all love and
admire him. all speak of him in terms
of tenderness and veneration.
In speaking Of this perfect whole !
have not excluded exterior form. His
stature is noble and lofty; he is well
made and proportioned; his physiog-
nomy mild and agreeable, but such as
to render it impossible to speak particu-
larly of any of his features, SO that ia
quitting him you have only the recollec-
ton Of fine face. He has neither a
grave nor familiar air; his brow il
sometimes marked with thought, but

Intense Cold Breeds Catarrh.

February is month of severe storms
and intense cold
Even in the South where the prevail
ing temperature is much above wintry
attitudes, February brings sudden
changes of temperature.
Mercury sometimes drops 20 degrees
in single night.
Therefore, the following health hints
are applicable to the whole of North
America:
Ventilation.
The sleeping rooms should be we'll
ventilated, but SO as to avoid direct
currents of air.
Bathing.
Those in vigorous health should take
cold water towel bath every morning
before breakfast. Those in feeble health
should take brisk dry-towel-rub every
morning.
Diet
The diet should be generous one,
including meat, and occasionally fresh
vegetables.
Sunshine.
The nights being long and the days
short, as much sunshine as possible
should be let into the house during the
day.
Clothing.
The head should be kept cool at all
times. The feet should be kept warm
and dry, day and night.
Pe-ru-na.
When unavoidably exposed to cold OF
wet, few doses of Peruna will avert
bad consequences.
Prccaufion.
When seized with chill, or ever
slight chilliness, a dose of Peruna should
be taken at once.

In the winter Of 19O2-3 Mr.. Schroeppel

age, paid me q visit. She had received
great benefit from DR.. Williams Pink
Pills, and she was confident they would
help me. At her solicitation I gave up
the doctors treatment and took the pills

"And were you cured as the result of
taking her advice?"
"Yes, quickly and thoroughly. Be-
fore the second box was finished I felt
very manifest improvement, and within
two weeks was able to leave my bed and
take up my neglected farm work. I con-

One of Mr.. Schroeppel's neighbors, Cap

READS THE BOOK.
"The Road to MELVILLE" Pointed the
Way.

Down at Hot Springs, Ark, the WIS.,
itors have all sorts of complaints, but
1t is a subject of remark that the great
majority Of them have some trouble
with stomach and bowels. This may
be partly attributed to the heavy med
icines.
Naturally, under the conditions, the
question of food is very prominent.
A young man states that he had suf-
fered for nine years from stomach and
bowel trouble, had two operations
which did not cure, and was at last
threatened with appendicitis.
He went to Hot Springs for rheum-
atism, and his stomach trouble got
worse. One day at breakfast the wait
err, knowing his condition, suggested
he try Grape-Nuts and cream, which
he did, and found the food agreed with
him perfectly.
After the second day he began to
sleep peacefully at night, different than
he had for years. The perfect diges-
ton of the food quieted his nervous
system and made sleep possible.
He says: "The next morning l was

stipation had disappeared. could moi

Dangerous Affection.

Prof. Van Dyle, of Princeton, said in
recent address to New York Sun

Errors of logic, inconsequent rea-
soning, are common to the young.
"A little Princeton boy the other day

passed the house of friend he saw a
dog playing on the lawn.

81 Mrs TcNfAadsen MinAlottie Henry

At the New York State Assembly of
Mothers, a prominent New York doctor
told the 800 women present thathealthy
American women were so rare as to be
almost extinct.
This seems to be sweeping state.
ment of the condition of American
women. Yet how many do you know
who are perfectly well and do not have
some trouble arising from derange-
ment of the female organism which
manifests itself in headaches, back
aches, nervousness, that bcaring-down
feeling, painful or irregular menstrual
ton, leucorrh9a, displacement of the
uterus, ovarian trouble, indigestion or
sleeplessness? There is a tried and
true remedy for all these ailments.

women to health than all other rene
dies in the world. 1t regulates,
