.PE-RU7NA STRENGTHENS
The ENTIRE SYSTEM.

Mr.. Chas. L. Sauer, Grand Scribe,
Grand Encampment. l. o. o. f. of
Texas, and Assistant City Auditor,
writes from the City Hall, San Antonio,
Tex:
Nearly two years ago accepted q
position as secretary and treasurer
with one of the leading dry goods
establishments of Galveston, Tex.
1.-THE sudden change from n high and
dry altitude to sea level proved too
much for me and 1 became afflicted
with catarrh and cold in the head, and
general debility to such an extent as to
almost incapacitate me for attending
to my duties.
"I was Induced to try Peruna, and
after taking several bottles i'm small
doses am pleased to say that I was
entirely restored to my normal condi-
fiOnand have ever since recommended
the use of Peruna to my friends.

In. My feet and ankles swelled up, my
hands pulled, and became SO tense I
could hardly close them. 1 had great
difficulty in breathing, and my heart
would f1utter with the least exertion
could not walk far without stopping
again and again to rest. Since using
four boxes of Doan's Kidney Pills the
bloating has gone down and the feel
ings of distress have disappeared"

Girl Horsebreaker.

Miss Winnonah Won Ohl,, New
Jersey girl 20 years old, is making
quite a reputation as a horsebreaker
Five years ago, a slender slip of a
girl, she went to South Dakota with
her mother, who had been sent thither
for a change of climate. Miss Win
nonah learned to ride bronchos out
there and on returning east she took
to training and breaking horses, in
which work she has been remarkably
successful. She has never sustained
any injury while thus engaged.

No Improvement.

In one of the Sunday schools in
Maiden, Mass, recently the teacher
of class of small boys inquired Of
each one if he thought he had been
a better boy during the year. Each
answer was in the affirmative except
one little fellow about eight years
old, who was conspicuous for his 81
lence. The teacher put the question
to him second time, when with con-
siderable earnestness he replied: II
am Just as worse as / ever was"

First of Grange Banks.

The opening of bank with cap
Ital of $4,000 in Tioga, Pa, would
not, under ordinary circumstances,
constitute notable event, but as the
bank is organized under the auspices
of the State Grange, is owned and man
aged by grangers, and is designed to
be he first of series of grange banks,
it's opening is very interesting.

A Good Reason.

One of the American visitors who
have been swarming into Oxford was
surprised to learn from porter at the
station that he had about another mile
to cover before he reached Magdalen.
He asked why the blazes the station
had been built SO far from the col
ieges." The Oxford porter replied,
gravely: II dunno, sir; but l 'spect
they thought it more handy to have it
down here by the railway"

New Mountain Line.

A wonderful mountain railway is be-

With a smooth iron and Defiance
Starch, you can launder your shirt
waist just as we'll at home as the
steam laundry can; it will have the
proper stiffness and finish, there will
be less wear and tear of the goods,
and it will be a positive pleasure to
use Starch that does not stick to the
iron

Though very fair mirrors are manufactured in
the United States, the pilates" of our best
mirrors are imported from Europe, only the
"silyering' being done here.
We know no better way of closing this ar
ticle than with a description of one of the
most luxuriant mirrors ever made-that of
Queen Marie de Medici-for which we are in
debted TO a work by A. Sauzay:
1T is Of rock crystal, and agates, cut, pol
ished and set in network of gold form
frame around the rectangular glass. Precious
stones of the finest water glitter on the
frame, particularly three large emeralds. One
of these is set in a gold mounting enriched
with diamonds and rubies; the two others,
placed on the side pedestals Of the base, sup
port helmeted heads, representing warrior
and an amazon. The face and neck are cut
in a gem called hyacinth; the helmets and
drapery are Of gold, enriched with diamonds
Small emeralds serve as setting for two
carved stones; one of them, at the top of the
whole construction, is an onyx of three lay
ers, carved into the head of Victory; the
other is an onyx agate, carved in The six
teenth century, and representing a female
head in profile, draped, having veil which
falls from the head on the shoulder, and wear
ing on her forehead the crescent of Diana"
We will add that the value of this mirror,
in I79l, was estimated at 10000 francs
($30000)
