NiQht SWGatS 6 Cough.

E. W. Walton, Condr. S. P. Ry., III
Van Ness St., San Antonio, Tex.
writes: "During the summer and fail
of 1902, my annoyance from cataIrh
reached that stage where 1t was actual
misery and developed alarming symp-
toms, such as very deep-seatcd cough,
night sweats, and pains in the head and
chest. / experimental with several So
called remedies before finally decided
to take thorough course of Peruna.
"Twoof my friends had gone SO far as
to inform me that the thing for me to do
was to resign my position and seek a
higher, more econgenial climate. Every
one thought had consumption and L
was not expected to live very long.
"Having procured some Peruna, de-
cided to give it thorough test and ap-
piled myself assiduously to the task of
taking it, as per instructions, in the
meantime.
"The effects were soon apparent, all
alarming symptoms disappeared and
my general health became fully as good
as it had ever been in my life.
"I have resorted to the use of Peruna
on two or three occasions since that
time to cure myself of bad colds"

AUTOS cHURN BUTTER.

Farmer UtiIizes HOOt-WagOns While
They Are Crossing Bridge.
"The road that runs from Denver out
past Petersburg and on down to Little
ton, Castle Rock, Larkspur, Palmer
Lake, Colorado Springs and all points
south" passes the home Of John G.
Muller and is thickly traversed by auto
mobiles. In fact, one of those joy bug
gies comes sky-hootin' along about ev-
cry second, or perhaps oftener, keeping
peaceable residents of that community
either siding along as close to the edge
of the road as the barb wire will per-
NIT, or climbing trees.
1t occurred to Muller that with all
those autos streaming by he might util-
lie them to his own advantage, and
auto. churned butter is the result.
There's small bridge, about 20 feet
long, over little ditch in front of his
house. He just took up the floor Of
that bridge and relald 1t, in corduroy
fashion, with round pieces of timber set

WHEN ANOHfAN WRITES A CHECK

she returned 1t for payment the check
was signed Lower line" in a dainty
hand.
At one of the big national banks soms
months ago a perfumed, crested note of
depositor of the bank read: "Please
stop payment ON check No. 1917, as
have accidentally burned the same" A
depositor at the same bank was notified
that her account was overdrawn, but
still her checks continued to pour in.
When they did not cease for four or five
days an official called her up ON the tel
ephone and told her that payment
would be stopped on her checks unless
she made her account good. She puffed
right up and said she would show him
that he was wrong and that she had
money in the bank. Half an hour later
she came down to the bank with her
check book and the explanation that
"she knew she was right, for there were
at least half dozen blank checks left
in the book -
Another popularity is the way they
make out checks to themselves. Where
man makes 1t out to ''cash" a woman
makes 1t to the order of Mary Brown
signs 1t Mary Brown, and turns it ovel
and indorses it MARY Brown" Thu
far have women progressed in the las
ten years, since it became common fo
them to do general banking business
1t remains to be seen how much the,
will develop in the next ten years.

very closely together, but which revolve
when an auto or any other vehicle
strikes them. Then, under that bridge
and attached to the logs, he framed up
system of cogs which work whenever
the bridge floor does. He carried a
piece of betting to the house and at
tached it to the handle Of a revolving
churn.
Now, every time anything passes over
that bridge the floor turns, and the
turning of the floor turns his churn,
over and over, with marvellous rapidity.
The autos and other vehicles come so
closely together that Muller soon has a
mess of very fine butter churned up.

Australian Cadets.

All children in Australia are drilled,
but the elder boys are attached to the
Australian military forces by means of
the cadet corps. Almost every large
school has its band of cadets, who
wear neat khaki uniforms and are
armed with light rifles, in the use of
which they are frequently instructed.
Every year those boys have shooting
matches, and the scores prove that
among the youngsters there are many
who have already become skilled
marksmen.-London Standard.

The
General Demand
Z he

of the Well-Informed of the World has
always been for simple, pleasant
and efficient liquid laxative remedy of
known value; laxative which physi-
clans could sanction for family use
because its component parts are
known to them to be wholesome and
truly beneficial in effect, acceptable
to the system and gentle, yet prompt,
in action.
In supplying that demand with itI
excellent combination of Syrup of
Figs and Elixir of SIENNA, the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. proceeds along
rethical lines and relies on the merits
Of the laxative for its remarks i,le
success.
That is one of many reasons why
Syrup of Figs and Elixir of SIENNA is
given the preference by the Well
Informed. To get its beneficial effects
always buy the genuine-manufac-
tured by the California Fig Syrup Co.,
only and for sale by all leading
druggists. Price fifty cents per bottle.
