Light on Female Diseases.

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.
DIR. 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
to 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; it cures by removing the cause OF
female diseases.
Peruna 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.

AFRICA'S RAILROADS.

With the completion of the giant

feet deep and $50 feet wide. The
bridge is stretched distance of 45O
feet, and being 450 feet above the wa

The railway will commence running
over 1t in the beginning of July, and
the members of the .5ritish association
who are going to attend the meetings
in South Africa in August will thus be
able to cross the bridge by rail. The
Duke Of Abercorn will perform the
ceremony of opening the railway
Another great railway scheme is in
contemplation, although nothing defin-
lite is settled in the matter as yet. This
is nothing less than proposed trans
African railway, crossing the conti-
nent from east to west. The proposal
is to begin the line simultaneously
from Dacres-Salaam, in German East
Africa, and the seaport of Liberville
in the French Congo. The railway
will thus pass through the heart of the
Congo Free State, and will doubtless
effect a junction with the Cape to
Cairo line.-Africa.

Pe-ru-na Contains No Narcotics.
One reason why Peruna has found
permanent use in SO many homes Ia that
1t contains no narcotics Of any kind.
Peruna is perfectly harmless. 1t can be
used any length Of time without acquir-
ing drug habit. Peruna does not pro-
duce temporary results. 1t is perma-
nent in its effect.
AS tonic and nerve invigorator
Peruna has no equal.
1t has no bad effect upon the system,
and gradually eliminates catarrh by re-
moving the cause Of catarrh. There
are multitude Of homes where Peruna
has been used of and on for twenty
years. Such q thing could not be possi-

narcotic nature.

WHO SHOULD PAY THE BILL?

An inquiry and a suggestion are
combined in the following pertinent
editorial from the San Francisco Ex-
aminer. It says in its issue of Thurs
day:
President Roosevclt's plans for his
southern trip arouse once more the
question as to the manner in which
the expenses Of such a journey are
met.
These expenses are heavy, for the
president must take with him secre-
tares, clerks, some personal and po-
lltical friends, and press correspond
ents. He must have a special train,
both in recognition of the dignity OF
his office and because receptions and
speech at every stop make
schedule time impossible. Probably
such a trip as his last one to the Pa
ciflc coast would cost fully a quarter
OF his annual salary.
II is usually announced that our
travelling presidents pay their own
fares. Perhaps It has been the GUS
tom, though we greatly doubt it. Al

THE GREATEST PREACHER.

Science, religion, ethics-all are
dwarfed into tame and commonplace
subjects. compared to the wonderful
achievements of Luther Burbank, the
wizard of the plant world.
So marvellous are his powers over
plant life and nature. so closely has he
lived to the bosom of the earth and its
products, that he is master of every
thing that grows, it seems.
Until one has seen his wonderland
at Santa Rosa, California, it is impos-
sible to get an adequate idea of his
work. There he arms and disarms the
cactus, taking off and putting on its
splnes, as a knight would put off his
armor; there he changes Gods fixed
colors in the blushing rose, upturns all
scientific theories of species and
evolves a new species of plant as a
common gardener trains a vine to
climb a string.
A 14-year-old walnut tree, under his
mystic training, has attained a dame
ter of over two feet, while its parent
tree standing few feet away is but
one-third its girth, although 100 years
old.
He mingles the vital essence of the
plum and apricot and produces a
plumcot, a fruit never heard Of before.
having an entirely new and strange
flavor untasted on earth before. He
breeds and interbreeds plants until
they are changed out of their natural
order and created into something
new. Color, form, characteristics, per-
fumes and all the various parts OF
plant life are as clay in his hand, tc
fashion and mingle at will, into new
and startling discoveries.
And back of it all and through it al
Is the overshadowing fact that mar
has lived in ignorance Of these simple
principles until now. Nature is his
plaything and toy, If man understands
her. He was given dominion, in the
beginning, but ne has failed to claim
his inheritance and nature has stood
aloof, a mysterious, threatening, for
midable, awesome thing in the human
estimation, all these years, while the
truth is, she is a pliable, beautiful
yielding thing, submissive to the intel
lect and susceptible to immeasurabl'
variation under thoughtful and studi
Gus direction.

a railroad trade paper had recently
made the flat accusation that the

Viola Aliens Play.

The title chosen by Clyde Fitch for his play for Viola Aliens use next sea- son, The Toast of the Town" is peou- liarly characteristic of the period when the story is supposed to have occurred
 that of George the Fourth. During the latter part of the Nineteenth century, as now, there were certain phrases which, juding from the literature of the time, were on everybody's tongue. h. deed, each age seems to evolve certain terms of expression which illustrate ac- curately the habits and customs of the period. During George the Fourth's time, what we call the ''reigning bell" was the toast of the town;" in the spring when anybody suffered from what we call that tired feeling" or nervous debil- ity." they had the "vapours," and when a young lady was particularly susceptible or what we might call soft" she was 'languishing. All of these phrases have passed into the limbo of language; yet, to all readers of Fielding and Stern Richardson and Smolet, they are as familiar as the popular catch-phrases of our day. Furthermore the title. "The Toast of the Town" while euphoneous proves that the play is not. as has been stated, modern society drama.

 Diminutive comedians have a popular ity which belongs distinctly to themselves. Isn't he cute," Is an expression invari- ably heard from the feminine portion of the audience as a lillipution like fellow like Evans oavorts about the stage. George has been on the stage for some time but he has some distance to travel yet before he reaches the thirty mark. He wears so well that he is seen time and time again and he brings out some thing new in himself each succeeding time. Johnny Slavin Jimmie Powers, Louis Wesley and Arthur Dunn have been con- temporaries of Evans in this particular line.
 The humor Evans infuses into his work today is just as effective as it ever was and his voice is as sweet, resonant and mellow as ever. The little feet have thor youthful batter; the little legs have held the agility which has put grace into his every movement and he Is funnier than ever With a fertile brain which Is active and alert, springing something to create a laugh when there does not seem to be i t~AA oSS0sAoh ASi u anu Wich " AS buoAi pected, Evans has made reputation as one of the greatest wits on the stage.
 As a vaudeville top-liner Evans was an immense success. He enters into musical comedy as the leading player in ''The Runaways."
 As an author of popular songs, Mir. Evans has been as much of success as he has been a stage favorite. The strains of Tn the Good Old Summer Time" will live for ever. His latest song success , Come Take a Trip in My Air Ship" is now being sung and whistled in all quar- ters of the globe. Other popular songs coming from the pen of this comedian are "Standin' on de Corner Didn't Mean No Harm," ''Ill Be True to Ma Honey Boy" and Look Out for De Hoo-doo- -doo-doo- doc Man"
