LESSON IN ECONOMY.
Many are Beginning to Save. up"
For the jamestown Exposition.

Oh aries Frederick Stansbury.)
"Where are you going to spend your
vacation next year."
"At the jamestown Celebration at
Hampton Roads, Virginia." is the re-
ply of six out Of ten people-especially
young people referred to are just now
conjngating "to save-up, conversely
and have gotten from 81 shall save
up" to 81 am saving"
The area within the radius mention
ed can be marked out upon the map of
the United States by any boy or girl
who will take pair Of compasses and
sticking the point in Norfolk, stretch
the pen I'D of a year they will have
enough money for at least a two
weeks sojourn among the delights
and wonders of the Hampton Roads
celebration.
The young people are not the only
ones who have begun to savsup, Many
elderly couples whose children are
married and scattered are economizing
and saving in order that they may at
tend in the pleasant evening Of their
lives the interesting Exposition, cele-
brating the nations birth in Virginia.
The saving up process is a simple one
and the money can be got together
sven by those in humble eircum stances
by beginning to save in .time. Ill goes
without saying, that the result will
more than justify the care and self-de-
NAL required
Take, for example, the young mem
bers of the various branches of the Y.
Nj. q. A. Every year many of them
combine to take vacation trip to
some point within their means. For
this purpose many of the boys save up
for months beforehand. Can any one
doubt where they, with boys love of
water, ships, pageants and adventure,
Will want to go next year? 1t is not
every year that they can get chance
to visit so interesting and varied an ex-
position as that celebrating the found
ing of Jamestown in 1907. The outing
Will be at once picnic and a liberal
education. Here will be seen the armies
and navies of the world, in addition to
the industrial and artistic branches of
theensembie. Where is the boy that
would not willingly cross the conti- /
nent TO see an exact reproduction of
the most famous sea duel in the world
on the spot where it actually occur
red?
To enjoy this excursion, the boys
and girls and men and women, who !
We're not born with silver spoon in |
their mouths, must begin to ''ssve-up." |
Inc earlier they begin 10 save, the |
Ns1ore fun they cen ave next year

standard catarr h remedy the world over
Is simply because IL eliminates catarrh.
This explains why Peruna has be.
come SO popular. 1t relieves catarrh.
This Is an amply sufficient reason why
it should become popular.
1t therefore follows that when 9 rem
edy Is devised that can be used in the
home at moderate cost, such a remedy
should inevitably become popular.

, There are great many catarrh curesa
in the world. The most OF them are
local applications. Few OF them are to
be used internally.
Unfortunately, large number or
these Catarrh remedies, especially the
ones prescribed by the doctors, contain
narcotics of some sort, Cocaine, opium,
and other narcotics are used.
These remedies give temporary relief.
The patient thinks he is, better right
away.
In few weeks, however, he discovers
his mistake. Not only Is has catarrh no
better, but be has acquired the habit OF
using some narcotic.

, years of age, respectively, came in
bearing their dolls The first one had
a doll almost as big as herself. To her
delight and wonderment, the President
shook the silent young lady by the
hand Her sisters doll was much
smaller, but the President did not
slight that young lady, and also shook
hands with the second doll 1t was
discovered today that the usher who
counted the number of handshakes
failed to record these two. Therefore,
the official number should be 9,0lA in
stead OF 9,012.
Close behind these little girls came a
very black cOlOred man with his four
sons. ranging from twelve years down
10 seven. They were the proudest dusky
lads in Washington last night.
one very old colored man, judging
from appearance nearly ninety years old,
slowly marched past the receiving line
without shaking hands with the Presl-
dent After he had passed out he was
asked by a reporter why he dld not
shake hands with Mr.. Roosevelt after
his long wait in the line.
The old fellow shook mis- head eneTget-
icallY and said, 4 amt fit 10 shake

An OF the Presidents sons were In the
Blue Room during a large part OF the
time in which the public was passing.
Theodore, jr., had three of his Harvard
classmates with him. and Kermit and
Archie also had a friend or two
II would be interesting 10 calculate
the amount Of muscular energy expend-
ed by the President in yesterday s work.
All OF his hand-shakes, even 10 the
vei.v last. were strong and cordial, with
a good elbow movement. II all of the
strength which he exhausted III hand

one effort. 1t would be sufficient 20 raise

IN two or three distinct features the
New Year reception at the White
House was the most notable in the his
tory of these annual affairs. The num-
Der of persons received exceeded that
of any previous year by at least 1,00O,
and the President was shaking hands
and extending New Year greetings
nearly three quarters of an hour long
er than he or any other President ever
did on d similar occasion in the past
Then there was a reception within a

day was the most interesting feature
OF an immensely interesting and inn
portant function.
The official figures as given out at
the White House today show that the
President shook hands with 9.0I2 per
