When recently the two newly elect
ed United States senators, Nj. A. Du
:Pont Of Denaware, and Frank o.
Briggs OF New Jersey, shook hands on
the floor of the senate, a veteran legis-
lator remarked:
Another pair Of Dromios for Wash
ington."
h comment was accurate, for 1t
would be hard to find two men who
resemble each other as much as Briggs
and Du POM. They are about the
same height, each parts his hair ON the
left side, each has a mustache and
GOatee OF the style that on the stage
Is always credited to Southern
colonels, and both wear the same kind

them. Were 1t not for the fact that
the Delaware man occasionally puts on
eyeglasses, while the Jersy statesman
never uses them, there would really be
no positive means OF Identification.
There are many similar and remark
able cases of striking resemblances in
Washington public life.
Besides having in common their dis.
Ike for most of President R~oosevelt's
policies, Senators Foraker and Aldrich
share also a most unusual personal re-
semblance. There Is really only one
difference. Foraker's head is still well
covered, while Aldrich is qualified to
sit In the first row at the burlesQue
shows. But take the two men with
their hats on, and there is virtually no
telling them apart.
1t is a favorite joke of veteran news
paper men to have fun with younger
colleagues by telling them hat For
aker is Aldrich and vice versa. One
newcomer tried very hard to get a
fiery statement from Aldrich on the
Brownsville incident, thinking all the
time that he was talking to Foraker.

The Evolution Of
Household Remedies.

The modern patent medicine ousi-
ness Is the natural outgrowth Of the
old-time household remedies.
In the early history Of this country,
EVERY FAMILY HAD ITS HOME
MADE MEDICINES. Herb teas,
bitters, laxatives and ~tonics, were to Be
found in almost every house, compound
ed by the housewife, sometimes assisted
by the apothecary or the family doctor.
Such remedies a. picra, which was
aloes and quassia, dissolved in apple
brandy. Sometimes a hop tonic, made
Of whiskey, hops and bitter barks. A
score or more Of popular, homemade
remedies were thus compounded, the
formulae for which were passed along
from house to house, sometimes writ
sometimes verbally communicated.
The patent medicine business is a
natural oatgrowth from this whole

Peruna was originally one Of these
old-time remedies. 1t was used by the
Mennonites, of Pennsylvania, before it
was offered to the public for sale. DR..
Hartman, THE ORIGINAL COM
FOUNDER OF PERUNA, is Of Men

for his neighbors and his patients.
The sale of it increased, and at last he
established . mandatory and fur
nished it to the general drug trade.
Peruna is useful in q great many
climatic ailments, such as coughs, colds,
sore throat, bronchitis, and catarrhal
diseases generally. THOUSANDS OF
FAMILIES HAVE LEARNED THE
USE OF PERUNA and its value in the
treatment of these ailments. They
have learned to trust and believe in
DR.. Hartman's judgment, and to rely
on his remedy, Peruna.

Stuyvesant avenue by the inclusion of that por
ton of Route No. 10 in StuyVesant avenue be-
tween Broadway and Lafayette avenue. and
also by the omission Of that portion Of the line
