Rose Leaf Sachets.

Those who love roses will undoubtedly
dry and spice their leaves this June that
they may preserve them for the filing of
sachets next winter. No manufactured
powder is half so sweet as dried rose
leaves Moreover, they can be used alone
to fill a sachet and without recourse to
cotton and wool for their holding, as is
necessary with the use of powders.
The placing of many sachets among
things worn gives to the personality an
elusive, sweet scent which is as we'll deli
cate and refreshing. At the same time it
is now regarded as bad form to wear little
sachets tackled inside of bodices. 1t may,
however, be remembered that this was
customary a few years ago.

HOME REMEDY FOR a COLD.
A Good, Common Sense Treatment,
Anybody Can Easily Apply.

The best time to doctor a cold is
when you feel 1t coming on. Do not
delay, as you can often cure it in one
nighti taken in time. Keep In mind that
cold summer retards the crop-a cold
hen never lays--a cold house is UNI
comfortable and cold climate breeds
solds-so when you start to cure your
cold tpdrnt up.
Battle the feet in hot water-take
hot drinks Of lemonade or composition
tea-take good laxative quinine tab
let and go to bed and sweat. The most
important treatment in doctoring a
cold or sore throat Is a good applica-
ton on the lungs to avoid any chance
of pneumonia. People used to apply
complicated oil, goose grease, etc., but
the finest thing for this purpose is
Hof's German Liniment. This is a
camphor cream, strong and penetrat-
ing, yet perfectly clean and does not
soil clothing or bedding. 1t is a
simple household remedy, Is sold
everywhere for twenty-five cents. Be
sure to rub it In well and IL throat
Is sore use as a gargle. The above
treatment is inexpensive-in fact
costs good deal less than a good
tombstone-and neglected cold
often leads to an untimely grave.

deck directness: II understand. No
one goes into that door except the doc
tor and Enid. If anyone prowls around
here-lend me your revolver, Barnes.
You always carry one"
Yes, and you must from now on do
the same" answers the American as
he passes the weapon to the English
man. He steps to his own room, and
gets another pistol from his valise,
muttering grimly: IF have to shoot,
it will be to kill. Now, this makes it
necessary to see Elijah Emory at
once. Luckily cabled him."
Making his way hurriedly to the
busy Cours Belzunce, Barnes steps
into the Hotel des Deux-Mondes, a
well-known house of commercial en-
tertainment. A moments inquiry of
the polite clerk and he steps into the
correspondence room Of the hotel.
After looking about a moment, he
places his hand on the shoulder of a
man engaged in writing.
Il saw you come in the door,
Barnes!" says the man, continuing his
labor. Glad to behold you. Your
wire from Ajaccio came last night.
I've got all the information for you.

oned you'd gone on to Paris. Here's
what you wanted, finished" He passes
him the paper.
Barnes glances carefully about the
room-whieh is deserted.
There's no living thing here except
flies," remarks Emory. Il took care
of that before l began to write my
confidential report for you. I'll keep
my eye on the door, so you can speak

But. the French government"
THE French government won't pre-
vent my defending myself. In Corsica
itself France has practically never in
terfered in vendettas. AS wired, you
have obtained as far as you can, a list
of all the relatives of Musso Danella"
Barnes looks over the paper Emory
has given him and observes: "All. ex.
cept Corregio Cipriano Danella, Mus
SOS half brother, are practically
French"
Yes" says Emory, except there's
a cousin-a kind of knock-about fell
low, Enrico, who's Corsican also-I
didn't get him till the last. You'll find
his name at the bottom Of the page"
Where is he?" asks Barnes.
"Oh, Enrico's about the Riviera
some place, l reckon. They say he's
always near a gaming table when he's
he hasn't, Enrico don't care what he
does to get more" answers the detec.
tive.
But, from your report, Corregio, the
brother, is now in Marseilles. Well
take this Corregio first. He has a
country estate near Sierra in the island
and spends the balance of his time
chiefly in southern France; is intense
ly Corsican," returns Barnes. Taking
from his pocketbook the fragments of
the note Maud had given him-the one
that had produced Marina's nervous
stroke-he places them before the de-
tective, and asks: rs this Corregio

you," answers Elijah, then his eyes
begin to roll, as he mutters: "Whew!

The decision was given in the cases
In which the Ues MONIES National

against the city to have taxes paid on

marks her mother, angrily.
Bed? Oh, Maud is too young to be

You think she is too young?" Lady
Chartris' tone is appeased.
Two minutes after, Miss Chartris,
eating bonbons in the seclusion of a
magnificent confectioners shop on the
Cours Belzunce, remarks, suspicious

Mr.. Barnes of New York;"
I've got little information to get

hoarse with concern.
How can l tell? Bride didn't see

Then Maud's eyes opened bigger
than ever, for Mr.. Barnes says stern

What makes you think I've got it?'
Maud mutters, affrighted.
Give me the note you picked up

Not unless you buy 'em for two

WHAT is PE-RU-NA?
Is 1t a Catarrll Remedy, or q
Tonic. or is it Both?

Some people call Peruna a grea.
tonic. Others refer to Peruna as g
great catarrh remedy.
Which of these people are right
Is it more proper to call Peruna q ca
tarrh remedy than to call it a tonic7
Cur reply is, that Peruna is both Q
tonic and catarrh remedy. Indeed.
there can be no efectual catarrh rem
edy that is not also tonic.
In order to thoroughly relieve any
case Of catarrh, a remedy must not
only have specific action on the mu-
cous membranes affected by the ca
tarrh, but it must have a general tonic
action on the nervous system.
Catarrh, even in persons who are
otherwise strong, is weakened con-
dition Of some mucous membrane.
There must be something to strength
en- the circulation, to give tone to the
arteries, and to raise the vital forcea
Perhaps no vegetable remedy in the
world has attracted SO much attention
from medical writers as HYDRASTIS

cacy Of this herb has been recognized
many years, and is growing in its hold
upon the medical profession. When

forced by such renowned tonics an
C0LLINS0NIA CANADENSIS, COR
YDALIS F0RM0SA and CEDRON
SEED, ought to make this compound
an ideal remedy for catarrh in all its
stages and locations in the body.
From theoretical standpoint, there
fore, Peruna is beyond criticism. The
use Of Peruna, confirms this opinion.
Numberless testimonials from every
quarter Of the earth furnish ample
evidence that this Judgment is not
over enthusiastic. When practical ex-
perience confirms well-grounded the
ory the result is a truth that cannot be
shaken.
