The soldier and the sailor are es-
pecially subject to catarrh. In the
barracks and on the field, Peruna is
found equally efficacious to overcome
this physical enemy. If taken in time
it will prevent colds from developing
into catarrh. Even after a cold has
settled in some organ of the body,
Peruna can be relied upon as an eff
cacious remedy to promptly overcome
it.
Peruna will relieve catarrh, whether
acute or chronic, but few doses of
it taken in the first stages Of the dis
ease will be more effective than when
the disease has become established.

Search for Diamonds.

Never before in the history of the
United States has there been such a
demand for diamonds as there was
in 1905. Large quantities were i'm
ported, but the country produced
aone. In 1908 it produced Diamonds
to the value OF $50, in 1901 IL had
an output worth 500, in 1900 its pro-
duction was valued at $50, and in
1899 the country boosted native dia-
monds to the value of $500. Diamonds
have been discovered in the United
States in four different regions, but
their actual place of origin is in every
case unknown. All have been found
in loose and superficial deposits, and
all accidentally. 1t is not at all i'm
probable, however, that some day the
original sources of this queen Of gems
may be discovered.
The high price of diamonds has
made the recent search for these
precious stones in the United States
and Canada keener then ever before.
A careful watch for diamonds was
kept during the examination by the
United States Geological Survey of
many samples of gold and platinum
sands at the Lewis and Clark Exposi-
ton in Portland. Ore. A lookout for
diamonds has also been kept by a
number of people who have been
dredging for gold ON an extensive
scale in the rivers of California In
neither case have any finds been re.
