"Helpmeet" has had curious his
tory which began with the biblical
account of the creation, when "the
Lord God said, 1t is not good that
the man should be alone will make
him an help meet for him" That is
to say, fit assistant. But the two
words hove become curiously combin-
ed into "helpmeet," and they are
constantly used as one. Moreover,
the confusion is increased by the cor
ruption of the words into "help-mate,"
and Macaulay writes of the waiting
woman who was generally consider
ed as the most suitable help mate for
a parson."

u. S. DlSPENSATORY
Describes the Principal ingredients
Contained IN Pe-fu-na.

OOUJoulC0 ~ 49,
Are we claiming too much for Peruna
when we claim it to be an effective
remedy for chronic catarrh2 Have We
abundant proof that Peruna is in'real-
itv such a catarrh remedy2 Let Us see
what the United States DispensstoTy
says of the principal ingredients @
Peruna.
Take, for instance, the Ingredient
bvdrastis canadensis, or golden seal.
The United States Dispensatory says
of this herbal remedy, that it is largely
employed in the treatment Of depravea
mucous membranes, chronic rhinit1S
| (nasal catarrh), atomic dyspepsia 'ea-
tarrh of the shomaeh), chronic intesn-
nal catarrh, catarrhal jaundice, tca-
tarrh of the liver) and in diseased
mucous membranes of the pelvic organs.
It Is also recommended for the treat-
ment of various forms of diseases Pc
culiar to women.
Another ingredient Of Peruna, cory
dalis formosa, is elassed in the United
States Dispensatory as tonic. SO also
is cubebs clasSed as a stomachic and as
a tonic for the mucous membranes.
Cedron seeds is another Ingredient OF
Peruna, an excellent drug that has
been very largely overlooked by the
medical profession for the past fifty
wears. The seeds are to be found In
very few drug stores. The United
States Dispensatory says of the action
of cedron that it is used as bitter
tonic and in the treatment of dysentery,
and in intermittent diseases as sub
stitute for quinine.
Oil of copaiba, another ingredient OF
Peruna, is classed by the United States
Dispen satory as a mild stimulant and
diuretic. 1t acts on the stomach and
intestinal tract. 1t acts as a stimu-
liant on the genito-urinary membranes.
Useful in chronic cystitis, chronic dys-
entery and diarrhea, and some chronic
diseases of the liver and kidneys.

malls of what the people think of Pc
runa as a catarrh remedy. The best
evidence is the testimony of those who
have tried it.

THE DRINK PROBLEM.
The surest Cure of the Evil Is in Ex'
tinction of Drink Traffic.

At a recent public meeting under
the auspices of the Scottish Temper
ance Legislation board, at Glasgow,
the solicitor general for Scotland, Mr.
Alexander Ure, NJ. c., NJ. P, the prin-
cipal speaker, said If 1t were pracuc-
able he would hold that the best cure
for the drink problem would be the
extinction of the drink traffic alto
gether; but he was a practical poll
tician. He regarded the problem not
as vice to be extinguished, not as
crime to be suppressed, but as a ques-
ton of the habits and the customs OF
the people. Now they were powerless
to effect a change in the habits OF
nation unless they had at their back
the vast overwhelming mass of public
opinion. In his opinion it would be
impossible to command at the present
moment an adequate force and volume
of public opinion to absolutely prohibit
the drink traffic in all parts of Scot
land, and It was now universally
agreed that If prohibition was to be
carried at all it must be by very sub
stantial majority, and the minimum
that had been suggested even by ex-
treme temperance reformers was a
two-thirds majority of the electors vot-
ing, or a clear majority of the electors
on the roll. Now, in favor of absolute
prohibition they would no doubt be
able to count upon generous esti-
mate ten per cent of the electors to
give their steady support, but in order
to carry absolute prohibition they
would require to reinforce their ten
out of 100 by 81 out of the remaining

termined to secure that trade for Jap
anese interests. Foreign governments
protested at Toxic. They wasted their
time. With that faultless politeness
that is one of the charming traits of
the japanese, the government officials
gave assurance of their most distin-
guished consideratiOn-and renewed
the appropriation. 1t lapsed while
the war was on, because Japan had
need elsewhere for all her funds; but
now the government has in hand an
act that will finish the work begun
by the appropriation and effectively
put the foreign teahouses out of buSi-
ness"

Saloons in France,

At present there is one liquor shop
for every SO persons in France. In
Paris, where there are 615 miles of
streets, there are over $4,000 liquor
selling places-nearly 81 to a mile.
One industrial center, Roubaix, con-
tanning population of over 100000,
has now one liquor-selling place for
every SO inhabitants. In all France
there are 1896 liquor shops, an in
crease of more than 100000 during the
last 25 years. And yet some people
want to see the United States follow
France in wine drinking.

BENSON, Ariz., July 25.-There ar rived in this city a few days since, a Merican who was gladly welcomed back to his old home after a forced ab- sencs of nearly twenty years, this was none other than Carmen Mendebles, who was recently released from the penitentiaTy at Yuma, having been pardoned by the Board of Control at their recent meeting in Phoenix. Mendebles was met at the depot by a number of his old acquaintances. but he found that during the time of his enforced absence that a number of his old friends had died and left the coun- try. but there was still left a number of them who were there to meet him and will endeavor to help him in his future attempt to lead an upright life. Mendebles was convicted in the Dis trict ourt of COchise County of the crime of murder, having killed a fel- low countryman at Fairbank during the fall of the year 1887. He was in dicted by the grand jury and on the Fist of November of that year was sentenced to serve a term of life i'm prisCnment in the penitentiary at Yu- ma. He was not tried in the court having entered a plea of guilty to the charge of murder in the .Sscond degree. Mendebles since he has been confined in prison had been a model prisoner and all of the prison officials who have been in charge of that institution since Mendebles was confined there are unanimous in vOuching for his good behavior

DOUGLAS, July 25.-CSpecial.)-
 Immigration Inspector Charles T. Cornell has returned from Fl Paso where he had important official" business resulting in his making the best haul" his long experience has ever recorded. Mrs. Cornell came with him. Coincident with his re- turn the Japanese in this section, who have been casting lingering glances on the land of the free but have not landed, have retreated to their hiding places, while slant-eyed Chinks are no more in sight.
 MT. Connell brings the finest re ports back from Fl Paso as to the reputation Douglas is earning as a city with a possibility of becoming a metropolis.
 T found" said NIT. Connell, that We have to get away from Douglas to learn something really good. Sitting around the lobby of the Sheldon with my ears all the time open for any stray comment that would be of inter- est I heard more of Douglas and its possibilities than any other city in the southwest. Persons from east ern points in their idle moments when talking on the southwest would invariably refer to Douglas as being the place of great possibility of all the southwest. This comment was as sweet music to my ears"

 NEW YORK, July 25.-The cotton market opened strong two to four points advance. Trading was very active at times. The bull crowd gave good support to the market on every soft spot. There was some
 soft spots. There were some light rains reported in the eastern part of the belt, but the western did not report any. Everyone seems to be awaiting the government report on August 2nd. It should show much i'm, provement over the previous one. There is no doubt a big interest in the market with strong interests on both sides of the market. The mar ket looks a sale pending the report.
