Pork Chops Sacrificed to Save the Sal
mon Packer From Loss.
The salmon packer McLauren ar
rived from Alaska this morning with
a hard luck story to tell, having
found out when too late the Jonah"
aboard that caused a light catch, sew
eral minor mishaps and finally almost
a wreck from which the vessel escap-
ed with the loss of her keelson. rhe
cause OF all this misfortune, her crew
solemnly aver, was a pet pig. which
was destined to supply chops and
spare ribs on the homeward voyage.
The good ship finally shook herself
free from the hoodoo and made a fine
run down the coast
It happened in this way: Coming
out of the roadstead at Nogashak;
with only 5000 cases aboard, owing n
the porcine hoodoo, the ship ran onto
a reef and seemed a hopeless loss.
She rolled helplessly on the swell, the
rock grinding cruelty at her hull. Sha
gave one roll more distressing than
the others, and prestol the pet pig
went by the board with banshee wall
of despair and was seen no more. I'm.
mediately the ship righted herself and
on the next wave slid off the reef,
scraping her sides in the act. From
that moment she acted like new
creature. Her crew are bewailing the
fact that the pig was not lost on the
outbound trip. They figure the cost
of having Jonah aboard as several
thousand dollars.-San Francisco Bul.

Peruna is known from the Atlantic
to the Pacific. Letters of congratula-
tion and commendation testifying to
the merits of Peruna as a catarrh rem
edy are pouring in from every State in
the Union. DR.. Hartman is receiving
hundreds of such letters daily. All
classes write these letters, from the
highest to the lowest.
The outdoor laborer, the indoor arti-
san, the clerk, the editor, the statesman,
the preacher-all agree that Peruna is
the catarrh remedy of the age. The
stage and rostrum, recognizing catarrh
as their greatest enemy, are especially
enthusiastic in their praise and tes-
timony.
