DON'T NEGLECT a COLD.
Neglected Colds Lead to Consumption.
How Consumption Develops.

Nine cases OF consumption out of ten
occur in this way:
Aperson catches cold. The cold is not
properly cured, and another cold is
caught.
This cold is dilly-dallied with, eithc=
by no treatment whatever or some treat
ment that is Intellectual, and tho cold
continues.
Then another cold is caught and
cough develops. Cough syrups are re-
sorted to, but they give only temporary
relief.
BY and by the patient gets tired of
taking medicines and cough syrups and
gives up in despair.
The cold continues to develop and Gie
cough grows worse.
Then the doctor is called in, only to
discover that the patient is in the first
stages of consumption.
1T was just in this way that Miss
Powell, of Aurora, Ind, became sick.
She caught cold, and not considering
1t serious, neglected it, thinking as
many others do, thatit would swear off. !"
However, it chung to her tenaciously,
and in two weeks she found her health
In serious condition.
fortunately, Peruna had been brought
TO her notice, and she took course of
this remedy before it was-too late.
In week the cough and cold were
broken, and three weeks treatment
completely restored her to health.
This is what Peruna is doing all the
while. Not q day, and probably not an
hour passes in which some one does not
have similar experience with Peruna.
Cure the Slight Colds and Avoid
Consumption.
The first step toward consumption is
a cold. The next step is a failure to cure
1t promptly. The third step is the de-
velopment of catarrh, which gradually
becomes chronic. The fourth step, tho
catarrh begins to spread from the head
to the throat, then to the bronchial
tubes, and finally into the lungs. 1t is
then consumption in the first stage.
Atany time during the progress of ca
tarrh, from the first onset of the cold to
its final settlement in the lungs, Peruna
can be relied upon TO stop the disease.
If you have taken cold, buy Peruna
without delay. One bottle in the be-
ginning will do more good than half
dozen bottles after the catarrh has
fastened itself on the lungs.
Thousands of Testimonials.
We have on file thousands of testi-
monials from people who have been
cured of catarrh Of the lungs by Peruna.
We can give our readers only a slight
glimpse of the vast array of unsolicited
endorsements We are receiving every
month. Noother physician in the world
has received such n volume of enthu-
siastic letters Of thanks as DIR. HartsaaD

Richmond Democrats seem to be of
sane mind just now. They seriously con-
slider doing away with the primary for
the spring elections. Some people have
to be knocked down more than once be-
fore they learn that they are up against
something, but Richmond appears to be
quick of perception. Virginia Citizen.
If there is any serious intention on
the part of Richmond Democrats to
abandon the primary election system.

Dispatch of some two weeks gone.
There is growing sentiment that a
city primary election to nominate coun-
ciimen for the June election is useless.
The city is reliably Democratic anyhow,
and none but Democrat can be elected
and SO there can be no danger on that
score. Councilmen are not paid officers.

pense OF a primary. Such in part are

primary to be useless. -Times-Dispatch

There is more catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, n until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable.
For a great many years doctors pro-
nounced it a local disease and prescrib-
ed local remedies, and by constantly
falling to cure with local treatment pro
nounced it incurable. Science has prov
en- catarrh to be a constitutional dis
case and therefore requires constitu-
.tional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure,
manufactured by F. j. Cheney & Co.,
Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional
cure on the market. 1t is taken intern
ally in doses from 10 drops to a tea
spoonful. 1t acts directly on the blood
and mucous surfaces of the system.
They offer one hundred dollars for any
case it fails to cure. Send for circu-
lars and testimonials.

STRONG MEN OF THE SENATE.

Editor W. C. Deming of the Wyo.
ming Tribune advances some very good
reasons why Wyoming should retain
her present delegation in congress-. He
is of the opinion that when a man,
through his ability and hard work,
reaches high places upon important
committees, he should be retained and
aided in his efforts to go higher. But
the entire editorial is so good that it
is given herewith in full:
The strong men in the senate and
house of representatives are not nee
e~ssarily the men of greatest natural
or acquired ability. . There is a power
which comes of experience; a power
which can come in no other way, par.
t~icularly in the national Legislative
halls.
THE strongest man in the senate to
day is Senator Allison of Iowa. There
are other senators, manifestly endow
ed with greater native talent in many
ways. Senator Allison is very slow OF
thought and of speech. He does not
possess natural oratorical abilities
For several years after he entered the
senate he was si~ngularly inconspicu-
Gus. He was ~plodding all the time:
for he has a natural capacity for work.
With caution which developed into
wisdom he managed to secure assign.
ments to important committees, and,
according to senate customs, he gradu-
ally grew into leading positions on all
OF these committees. For twenty-five
years he has been chairman of the
committee on appropriations, the
most powerful committee in either
q branch of the congress. For more
than twenty years he has been a lead.

MANS LEG BROKEN
IN FRIENDLY SCuEELE.

George Edwards met with a painful
accident Sunday night about 8 o'clock,
in the saloon Of Cluff & Albro, that
will confne him to his room for several
weeks, says the Saratoga Sun. He and
Ezra Cluff was scufIling and as they
went down Edwards foot caught under
the edge of a slot machine in such a
way that the fall broke one of the
bones of his left leg about an inch and
a half above the ankle. DR.. Price was
called in and set the limb. Beyond be
ing very painful the wound is not at
all a dangerous one and Mr.. Edwards
will soon be out again.

Mr.. Henry c. Brown, a mar who at
one time homesteaded a large portion
of the land upon which Denver now
stands, has just passed to his final re-
ward. The Brown Palace hotel stands

The estate owns a large number Of lots
that were a portion Of the original tract
and the homestead brought millions to

could be such development. From raw

WHAT THE KIDNEYS DO.
Their Unceasine Work Keeps Us
Strong and Healthy.

All the blood in the body passes
through the kidneys once every three
minutes. The kidneys filter the blood.
They work night and day. When heal.
thy they remove about 500 grains of
impure matter daily, when unhealthy
some part of this impure matter is left
in the hood. This brinsu IN many dis.
eases and symptoms-pain in the back,
headache, nervousness, hot, dry skin,
rheumatism, govt, gravel, disorders of
the eyesight and hearing, dizziness, ir-
regular heart, debility, drowsiness,
dropsy, deposits in the urine, etc. But
if you keep the filters right you will
have no trouble with your kidneys.

Americana Abroad.

Year by year the number Of Am
erlcans residing in the chief Euro
pean cities has been increasing. Two
years ago an estimate Of the num-
Der of Americans living In London
was made and the number was shown
TO be 1 s 1000, with 10000 in Paris.
There are according to the lase esu-
mates $4,000 Americans residing in
London permanently, 10000 In Paris,
5000 each in Rome and Berlin, $500
In Munich, 1900 in Ference and l.
300 in Venice.
There are at all times between 1907
90 and 10000 American resident in
European cities, apart from the num-
Der of Americans who make a sum-
mer trip to Europe and come under
the designation of either transients
or travellers. Most European coun.
tries do not include in the census OF
inhabitants taken unnaturalized for
eigners, and for that reason the fig
ures OF the number of Americans arc
not always easy to get. Ten pei
cent. of the population of Paris, ex
elusive of transients, is made up Of
foreigners-25O,0O 600 foreigners cor

Modern Dance Of Eairles.

~ &fS
The throng Of men and women who
hurry up town along Broadway ev
cry evening about 6 o'clock paid &
conscious compliment to the charms
Of unconscious childhood the Other
evening on the block between Thirty
eighth and Thirty-ninth streets and
incidentally put themselves to a Ger
tain inconvience. An organ grinder
had halted his matchmaking machine
at the curb in front of a brilliantly
lighted candy store and began te
make the air meiodious with the
strains Of a two-step. Just at that
mome7t q woman from one of the
west side streets, who was pushing
a baby carriage along the sidewalk,
halted in front of the shop window
to look at the display Of sweets. Tod
ding by her side were two tiny girls,
who were just about big enough to
walk alone. The moment the organ
began to play the tots began to dance.
or rather hop about, on the walk In
funny little steps that by no means
could be said to be either graceful
or anywhere in time to the music.
But they didn't mind that, o did
the Broadway throng. Men and wo'
men cleared a space on the walk for
the tots to dance in. Some Of the
young men and women went out In
the street, others crowded along close
up to the shop windows. AS long as
the music lasted there was an open
ring around the youngsters, who were
perfectly unconscious Of the disturb
ance they were creating in the ord!-
nary course of trafic.-New York
