A Prophecy az TO Wheat.

Unquestionably those now living
may see the time when in some years
the United States will import wheat
If a surplus can be found anywhere
AS a rule, however, we may expect
to continue to export grain forever
The oldest and most densely popu
lated countries of the world continue
to export grain, and while the worlC
endures there will always be ex-
changes of SURPRISES. AS to our pro.
duction we are probably nearing our
maximum under present methods of
cultivation. 1t is, however, easily pos
sible to double our output by better
methods of agriculture which we shall
gradually adopt as increasing prices
caused by the pressure of population
warrant the increased outlay in pro.
ductiOn.

Dr.. Mecosh,s Impression.

"Ah. l have an impression!" ex-
claimed DR.. McCosh, the president of
Princeton college. to the mental-phi-
losophy class. Now, young gentle
men," continued the doctor, as he
touched his head with his forefinger,
can you tell NC what an impression
is?"
No answer.
What; no one knows? No one can
tell me what an impression is?" eX'
claimed the doctor, looking up and
down the class.
Il know" said Mr.. Arthur. "An
impression is a dent in soft place.

MAN TRICK OF COLLECTOR.
Unfortunate Debtor Not Even Safe
In Sacred Edifce.


DR.. Frederick A. Cook, thc roted
explorer, was talking in New York
about his idea of trying to reach the
South Pole with automobiles.
Polar exploring in automobiles
seems a very radical innovation. al
most a shocking innovation. doesn't
it?" he said. 1T seems almost as
shocking as TIE innovation that was
employed one Sunday night upon q
Brooklyn dcctcr. The doctor was in
church. He occupied front pew.
The church was crowded. the preach.
er preaching e,ocuently; perfect ST.
lence reigned. But suddenly a man
dashed in at the door. He held up
his hand for the preacher to pause.
Then he cried:
is DR.. Henry Smith here"
with all eyes centered upon him,
DR.. Henry Smith rose slowly In his
front seat and turned round.

Is Pe-ru-na Useful
for Catarrh?

Should a list of the ingredients Of Pc
runa be submitted to any medical ex-
pert, Of whatever school or nationality,
he would be Obliged TO admit without
reserve that each one ofthe.n was ofun-
doubted value in chronic catarrhal dis
eases, and had stood the test of many
years experience in the treatment Of
such diseases. THERE CAN BE NO
DISPUTE ABOUT TEIS WHAT
EVER. Peruna is composed ofthe most
effcacious and universally used herbal
remedies for catarrh. Every Ingredient
of Peruna has reputation of its own
In the cure CT some phase Of catarrh.
Peruna brings to the home the C0M-
BINED KNOWLEDGE OF SEVERAL
SCHOOLS OF MEDICINE in the treat
ment Of catarrhal diseases; brings to
the home the scientific skill and howl-
edge ofthe modern pharmacist; and last
but notleast, brings to the home thevas
and varied experience Of DR.. Hartman,
intheuse ofcatarrh remedies, and in the
treatment Of catarrhal diseases.
The fact is, chronic catarrh is a dis
ease which is very prevailed. Many
thousand people know they have
chronic catarrh. They have visited
doctors over and over again, and been
told that their case is one Of chronic
catarrh. 1t may be ofthe nose, throat,
lungs, stomach or some other internal
organ. There is no doubt as to the ma
ture of the disease. The only trouble
is the remedy. This doctor has tried to
cure them. That doctor has tried to
prescribe for them.
BUT THEY ALL FAILED TO
BRING ANY RELIEF.
Or. Hartman's idea is that a catarrh
remedy can be made on a large scale,
as he is making it; that it can be mado
honestly, of the purest drugs and of
the strictest uniformity. His idea is
that this remedy can be supplied direct
lyto the people, and no more be charged
for it than is necessary for the
handling oft.
No other household remedy so uni
versally advertised carries upon the
label the principal active constituents,
showing that Peruna invites the full
inspection of the critics.

"Goin1 Some"

Two of our colored brethren were
engaged in heated argument. The
"retort courteous" without the quail
flying adjective, had been passed and
returned.
Suddenly the larger of the two
moved up aggressively. "Yuh nygah,

knock yuh so fab dat der amt no rail.

The other looked at him a moment
speculatively. Then: "Niggah you.

WAITING FOR THE FUN.
Youngster Had Reason to Expect
Something Would Happen"

An old gentleman, rather portly and
clad in a somewhat youthful suit of
light gray flannel, sat on a bench in
the park enjoying the day, relates the
Woman's Home Companion.
What's the matter, sonny?" he
asked small urchin who lay on the
grass just across the walk and stared
intently. why don't you go and
play?"
Don't wanter," the boy replied.
'But it is not natural" the old gen.
tleman insisted, for boy to be so
quiet. Why don't you run about?"
"Oh, I'm just waitin'," the little fell
low answered. I'm just awaitin' till
you get up. A man painted that
