A SICKLY EXHIBITION.

John d. Rockefeller, one of the rich
est men in the world, sanity pillar
of the Euclld-Avenue Baptist church
at Cleveland, and a devoted attend
ant, when in New York, at the First
Avenue church of the same denomi-
nation; educational philanthropist; a
model of the high, unimpeachable,
institutional decency which attaches
to too much money and too little
conscience, has been lodging the
simple process of the law directed to
him to secure information to which
the courts are entitled, and when fl
nally run to earth like a hunted ami
NAL that has been driven from cover
to cover, he lies about it.
John d. Rockefeller, It has been
contended by his attorneys, is a weak
and sickly old man. Weak and sick
ly. indeed! The sickness that his is,
excites ones disgust.
sickness of greed that breeds all
sorts Of moral disturbances, that
dwarfs and distorts what might have
been good material for a full grown
mana sickness that smells Of hy-
pocrisy, and greed that is without
limit and that would be served by
that deceptive cunning which as
sumes that all other men are fools;
a mental putrefaction which blinds
Its victim to the conditions and pow
crs with which he is surrounded and
to which he is responsible. A most
pitiable disease, If we look at the
matter aright.-Portland Telegram,

A FAMINE IN HUMAN HAIR.

A paper published on the other
side of the Atlantic contains an item
to the effect that there is scarcity
Of human hair, the demand for
switches or coils having become SO
great as to cause 1t. This is a Pc
culiar trade. For many years Swiss,
German and Hungarian girls have
supplied fashionable women with lux
uriant tresses.
There were many men in Europe
who made ii business to visit every
village fair on the continent, and per-
suade girls to part with their crowns
for very small sums of money. Oc-
casionally the prices were quite low,
but at times, when the braids were
particularly fine, different buyers
bid against each other and the girl
would get nearly enough money to
set her up in housekeeping.-Ex-

SERMON BY \ LAWYER.

Edward Menkin, a Chicago lawyer,
gives the world the following homily
on human life, from the lawyers
standpoint:
A mans life is full of crosses and
temptations. He comes into this world
without his consent, and goes out
against his will, and the trip between
the two is exceedingly rocky.
The rule of contraries is one of the
features of the trip. When he is lit
tie the big girls kiss him, when he is
grown the little girls kiss him. If
he is poor he is a bad manager, if he
is rich he is dishonest. If he needs
credit he can't get it, If he is prosper
Gus every one wants to do him a fa-
vor. If he is in politics it's for the
pie. if he's out of politics you can't
find a place for him, and he is no
good for his country.
If he doesn't give to charity he is a
stingy cuss, If he does it's for show.
II he is actively religious he is a
hypocrite, If he takes no interest in
religion he is hardened sinner.
If he gives affection he is a soft
specimen, If he seems to care for no
one he Is cold-blooded.
II he dies young there was a great
future before him, If he lives to an
old age he has missed his calling.
The road is rocky, but man loves
to travel 1t.

Responsible PeOpIe,

DEOPLE occupying positions OF high
responsibility and trust are always
very busy people.
They have little or no time to devote
to side issues.
It's therefore very rare that such peo.
pie are willing to write testimonials for
anything.
Then again there is natural diff
dence in giving public endorsement to
any commercial enterprise on the part
Of people who are much before the
public.
Rare Endorsements.
1t is thus that it is very rare that pub.
lie officials, like governors, congress
men, consuls, senators, etc., give public
endorsement to a proprietary medi.
cine.
1t is therefore a great triumph that
Peruna has the unqualified endorse.
ment Of so many men in official posi-
ton.
Scores of public officials Of national
reputation have enthusiastically de.
clared in favor of Peruna in public
print over and over again.
A Startling Fact.
There is no way to account for such a
startling fact as this except that Peruna
has extraordinary unusual merit.
After all, people high and low. are
constituted very much alike.

Every road in the group is now
under Rockefeller control There is
one gap to be filled, from Toledo or
Detroit to Chicago. This will be COW
cred by the early purchase of minor
line. The Standard Oil system, when
completed, will have a main line
mileage of about 5000 miles from

railroad it will be the longest con-
tinuous main line in the world under
a single management.
From the very outset, by reason of
its affiliations with immense business

of the country has figured so largely

No president since the war has had
his time and attention so fully taken

Catarrhal Fever.

Mrs. W. X. Good, Broadway, Va,
writes:
"When 1 was fifteen years old | had
catarrhal fever and for nine years |
have had catarrh of the head.
Through neglect it went to my throst
and nose. After consulting you used
Peruna for four months as directed. and
am entirely well and have my natural
health.

1t will do all that it is recommended
to do"
Pe-ru-na Relieves Catarrh.
Mr.. L. Clifford Figg, Jr., 2929 f.
Marshall St., Richmond Va, writes:
GAS soon as get cold send for a
bottle Of Peruna, and it soon drives il
out of my system.
Despaired of Being Cured.
"For several years 1 was not entirely
well, and despaired of ever being cured,
as had used numerous remedies that
my friends advised. doctored for two
years without any improvement.
A Last Resort.
GAS last resort tried Peruna, and
am pleased to say that in a short time
was completely cured.
al have not been troubled for over n
year. am pleased to endorse Peruna
as it saved me a world Of suffering"

HAS EARNED A REST.

1t may be difficult to persuade any
one that Theodore Roosevelt is like
the ordinary run of men, and may,
therefore, become the victim of ply
sical weariness. or may actually break
down The very embodiment Of
"strenuousity," he of all men would
seem least to be a bidder for sympa-
thy and consideration on the ground
Of oyerwork. But there is a limit to
human endurance. The president has

remarkable experiences. His restless
activity has driven him when the ex-

Natural Enthusiasm.

Ndtu1 d IutuuSldSm.
When person has been really helped
in getting rid Of some chronic malady,
after other things have failed, it is quite
natural for enthusiasm to lead people
to make statement of the fact.
For great services, gratitude Is nat.
ural.
This is the only way that 1t can posi-
bly, be explained why it is that so many
persons prominent in public, diplomatic
and social life give testimony for
Peruna.
Actual Benefit.
Peruna promptly relieves.
This Is the explanation.
Catarrh is disease difficult to relieve.
A great many of the doctors fail to
relieve it.
Gratitude Results.
A few bottles of Peruna cure chronic
malady of many years standing and it is
almost impossible to repress the natural
feelings of gratitude which spring up.
Catarrh of Head and Throat
Mr.. Joseph Reiss, 3424 N. 18th street,
st. Louis, Mo-, writes:
81 had catarrh of the head and throat,
but through the use of five bottles of
Peruna and two bottles of Manalin 1
was cured.
81 think that Peruna is the best tonic
that have ever used and | would ad-
wise all catarrhal sufferers to use
Peruna."

ACTUALLY CURES CATARRH.

1t is one thing to claim, but an
other thing to back up the claim by a
statement that If not proven true,
there will be no charge for the service
or the goods. It is in this way that
Tallman & Co. sell Hyomei, for they
have so much faith in its power to
cure all forms Of catarrh and bron-
chial troubles that they give an abso-
lutte, unqualified guarantee with every
outfit that If the remedy does not cure
the money will be refunded.
A complete Hyomei outfit costs but
s1.00, making 1t not only very pleas
ont method of treatment, but most
economical.

 The authenticity of this statement was evidently doubted by resident of New Haven, Conn, as the follow ing correspondence would indicate: Rev. Geo. w. Ruland:

 Dear sir: Replying to your courteous inquiry, I take pleasure in saying, Yes, the testimoial is genuine, and I would add more emphatic words to express my confidence in Vinol as blood and nerve tonic and safe restorative.
 Yours respectfully,

INTERESTING DISCOURSE

By Rev. Dr. Brown aL flISL FreSDy-
 terian Church.
 Rev. Dr. Brown, at the First Pres byterian church yesterday, preached a fine discourse from the text, Be ye not conformed to this world" etc.
 In the course of the sermon Dr.. Brown took occasion to say that he had observed by the papers that a brother New Haven pastor was to preach yesterday regarding Christian Science. Dr. Brown said, in substance, he might be pardoned if he made a passing allusion to Christian Science, and he would say that there was much to admire in this new creed or belief which Mrs. Eddy had enlarged upon and developed and vitalized from the cue or foundation she had derived from the views and talks of Mr, Quigley, who was one of her townspeople or neighbors, and the originator of this ''new thought" There was much in the new doctrine that accorded with Christ's teachings, but it's essential and vital error was the practical substitu- ton of Mrs. Eddy or any hypnotic teaching for Christ. although in theory Mrs. Eddy assumed to be only an in- terpreter of Christ.
