EeIs by the Ton.

Many tons of eels have been taken
from the Juniata river during the last
few days. John Pennington, cripple
from this city, placed an up-to-date
eel basket in the river 1000 yards east
OF the Lewiston dam and in one night
he took $500 eels, weighing one-half
to fivo pounds each, from the basket.
This is only one Of the many baskets
in the river
The cells are put in boxes alive and
kept well into the winter. They sell
for from IL to Is cents a pound and
find a ready market.
At the Pennington camp there are

adorning the billboards with posters
proclaiming the evils of the use of
drink is spreading throughout Eng.

80 cities following that policy. In
some cases the expense has been

There is little doubt as to the fact

sided at the toilet of the golden-haired,
hite-shouldered daughters of the

OF Babylonian palaces, the runic in

eternally beautiful temples of Rome

Tanagra, the medieval tom0s in Gothic
Gathedrals. The gorgeous apparel of
the Renaissance period may be fol-

aumptuous dress of the great century,
that of the "Roi Soleil," King

the eighteenth century with its

Describes the PRINCIPAL Ingredients Con-
tanned in Pe-ru-na.
Are we claiming too much for Peruna
when we claim it to be an effective
remedy for chronic catarrh? Have we
abundant proof that Peruna is in reali-
ty such catarrh remedy7 Let us see
what the United States Dispensatory
says of the principal Ingredients of
Peruna.
Take, for instance, the Ingredient of
hydrastis canadensis, or golden seal.
The United States Dispensatory Gays of
this herbal remedy, that st is largely
employed in the treatment Of depraved
mucuous membranes, chronic rhinitis
(nasal catarrh), atomic dyspepsia (ca-
tarrh of the stomach), chronic intes-
final catarrh, catarrhal jaundice (ca-
tarrh of the liver), and in diseased mu-
cous membranes of the pelvic Organs.
1t is also recommended for the treat
ment of various forms of diseases pecu-
liar to women.
Another ingredient Of Peruna, cory
dalis formosa, is classed in the United
States Dispensatory as a tonic. So also
ie cubebs classed as 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
years. 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 a 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
Dispensatory as mild stimulant and
diuretic. 1t acts on the stomach and
intestinal tract. It acts as stimulant
on the genito- urinary membranes.
Useful in chronic cystitis, chronic dys-
entery and diarrhea, and some chronic
diseases of the liver and kidneys.
Send to us for free book of testi-
monials of what the people think of
Peruna as a catarrh remedy. The best
evidence is the testimony of those who
have tried it.

Sentimentalism Is the curse of our
fury system. Hard-headed business
men fall an easy prey to its malign in
t1uence as soon as they step into a
jury box. Thus any weeping crocodile
OF a lawyer may reasonably hope to
get the most brutal murderer off scot
free by opening the flood-gates of his
tears. "Look upon this poor, unhappy
victim Of society,"" walls learned coun-
sci, pointing to his client True In a
hasty moment he did murder his en-
tire family because they would not
give him money for drink: but we are
all of us weak at times. Do not, oh,
do not, send his shrinking body to the
gallows," ETC., ETC., until the sobbing
jury lets the prisoner off, and the gen.
tie art Of murder has received further
legal encouragement and impetus. Two
widely separated cases give hope that
this sickly emotionalism is losing its
power, says Ridgeway's. Chester Gill
lette has been convicted In New York
State Of numbering his sweetheart, and
Mrs. Birdsong has been found guilty
Of manslaughter in Mississippi. Every
possible appeal was made for Gillette.
Mrs. Birdsong, we assume, was young
aud beautiful. All murderesses are.
Yet one Of them met full justice, and
the other, at least partial justice. If,
indeed, the millennial day IL approach
Ing when the hired tear shall lose its
power to move juries, the United
States may be cleansed Of the stigma
Of permitting more murders to 60 I'M

Make Money at Trapping.

The last few years of the. life of John
Macdougall, son of Rev. John Macdou-
gall, the first missionary who worked
in the Canadian Northwest, and l.. q.
S. Ward are brimful of adventure. Mr..
Macdougall has been working for the
Hudson Bay Company in the far north,
while for the last six or seven consecu-
tive years Mr.. Ward has been trading
on his own account with the Indians
and half-breeds.
In this wild country 1t is no uncom-
mon thing for trapper to spend
months without seeing soul excepting
the solitary mail carrier who trudges
along with his dogsled, often covering
as much as 100 miles in a day. The
country in the district where these old
trappers live abounds with moose, musk
OK, arctic foxes-in fact, 1t Is verita-
BILE hunters paradise.
During the season the trappers, who
are composed almost solely of Indians
and half-breels, make from $500 to ST.
600, according to the plentifulness Of
furs. During the summer months they
pass their time spending this money.
Horses are unknown among the Rib
and Beaves tribes, dogs, snowshoes and
canoes being the sole means Of trans
portation. Attempts have been made
to harness moose and trapper named

Fire-Killed Timber Good.

Fire-killed timber, the forest service
has discovered, Is some use after all.
This Is thing that has been known
In the West for long time. The disas-

up timber in many cases, but there are
thousands of acres where the timber
is simply "fire-killed;;" that is to say,
it is killed standing by the fire that
sweeps through it and finally rots at
the ground and falls in the first wind
storm. Immense areas Of this timber
have been utilized in mining and rail-
road work and there have been mills
established simply to work up the fire.
killed logs into boards and boxes.
The seasoning Of fire-killed trees
seems to be more perfect than that of
ordinary seasoned lumber and In the
case of much Of the pine that would
otherwise have an objectionable odor
the fire-seasoned logs can be worked up
into cracker boxes and the like, where
the odor In ordinary pine lumber would
make its use impossible.
Some of the fire-killed timber has
been used after it had been dead fifty
five years, though the more common
time il from three to seven years. The
forest service says that the use of this
dead and down timber makes available
many thousand acres OF burned forest
that were formerly accounted worth
