Last night it was not by a great
deal as cold as it was the night be-
fore. as the raise in temperature
served to verify the statement of Su-
perintendent Vedder that the enor-
nous amount of water which it was
necessary to pump was due to leaka po
from frozen pipes and to the fact
that people wilfully allowed their hy-
drants and sewers to flow all night
Monday night 2,54 T. 900 gallons were
pumped as against 1,S62.000 gallons
last night. Thus raise of or g
degrees in the temperature was re-
sponsible for a decrease of approx
mately "a per cent. or 692 900 gal

GETTING
in SHAPE

Noble, of the Grand junction
Electric Railway company, left
the city for Colorado Springs to
remain over Christmas. MIR.
Sunderlin, of the company, re-
turned to the Springs last night
after spending IL day here look
ing after certain matters con-
nccted with the proposed road.
Steadily and continuously the ar
rangements are being perfected for
the immediate construction of the
street railway. Every day some new
phase of the preliminary arrange
ments is being completed. In few
days contracts will be awarded for
the construction work on the road
and other important contracts will be
let by the company.
To all who have given the prop
osition more than passing investiga-
tion there has readily and quickly
come a realization that the company
means business and that the road is
to be built within the time agreed
upon by the company and the council.

What is Pe-ru-na.

Are we claiming too much for Pernns
when we claim it to be an effective
remedy for chronic catarrh? Have VIC
abundant proof that Peruna is in real
ity such q catarrh remedy? Let us see
what the United States Dispensatory
says of the principal ingredients OF
Peruna.
Take, for instance, the ingredient
hydrastis canadensis, or golden seal.
The United States Dispensatory says
of this herbal remedy, that it is largely
employed in the treatment of deprsved
mucous membranes lining various
organs of the human body.
Another ingredient of Peruna, cory
dalis formosa, is classed in the United
States Dispensatory as tonic.
Cedron seeds is another ingredient OF
Peruna. The United States DISPENSE
tory says of the action Of cedron that
it is used as bitter tonic and in the
treatment of dysentery, and in inter-
mittent diseases as substitute for
quinine.
Send to us for free book of testi-
monials of what the people think OF Pc
runa as a catarrh remedy. The best
evidence is the testimony of those who
have tried it.

~ take you. yer honor" cried
Haight, whose sporting blood was
aroused, and the remark was greeted
by three cheers from the wharf.
IF it's in the power of a Ports
mouth boat to do it, Haight's the man
for you, MASTER" said one old vet
eran.
Stay" continued Haight, I'D like
to know who I'm dealin' with"
I'm Lord Darlington, first lieuten-
ant of the Niobe yonder"
He pointed to one of the frigates
swinging ahead in the line of battle
ships of Kephard's fleet.
"Right-o, your lordship," said Haight,
making a sea scrape at the mention OF
rank, social, political and naval, of his
speaker. Lads, who goes with u.s."
He picked up three or four volun-
teers, to whom Darlington promised a
suitable reward.

cutter, and l need the hands, your
lordship."
dhe any DOuy, any e'ih6 'ON
please" said Darlington. where's the
boat?"
she be lynn beyond the other pier.
Shall l bring her here, orr"
Wen go there returned my lord.
"Tis quicker"
Committing his horse to one OF the
bystanders, with instructions to take
him to the inn, Darlington, followed
by Haight and three seamen, ran back
to the shore, made their way along
the strand to the other pier, leaped
into the boat, which was a large,
swift cutter, as Haight had said at
least half again as big as Cooper's,
which was now well down the harbor
and going tremendously under every
freshening breeze.
To cast off the lines, hoist the sails,
warp the boat along the pier until she
gained the open roads, was the work
of few moments. Darlington stood
quietly while the skillful men worked
busily around him, but so soon as the
wind filed the sail and the boat gath
cred way he came aft, calmly displaced
Haight at the helm and sailed the
boat himself. And no one in that
harbor knew how to do it better
than he.

ocULIsT A MAN OF RESOURCE
Has a Blind Begear Woman to AdVer-

Enterprise takes various forms.
even in Warsaw. A young ocuf1st.
finding that patients were few and far

of advertising.
He engaged a blind woman who sits
and begs by the Church of the hOiy
Cross to hold light board whereon
are written his name, address, profess

hours.
AS the church is in the busiest
thoroughfare of the town the notice
attracts a good deal of attention. The

notice her who would otherwise pass

hoisted the single sail it bore. After
an hour of vexatious backing and
filling, she thought the breeze was
growing stronger and by four o'clock
to her great joy the wind had settled
and was blowing steady from the
southeast, straight up the channel,
that is.
There are two entrances to Ports
mouth harbor; one between the Isle
Of Wight and the mainland, the So
lent, and the other around the south
ern extremity of the same island.
Ellen had drifted seaward during the
night and she decided that her best
course was to round the island and
run up to the harbor with a beam
wind. The breeze was growing strong
er every moment. Indeed, the little
boat keeled over so far that some
times the lee gunwales were peril
ously near the water line.
Presently, Ellen woke up Debbie in
order to trim the ship, bidding her
crawl up to windward. Before Deb
bic took her position, they made such
morning meal as they could on tepid
water and the remains of the hard
bread, and then settled down for their
run into the harbor The little boat
was jumping and pitching fearfully.
but Debbie was almost as good a
sailor as Ellen, and she suffered no in
convenience from the wild motion.
As for Ellen. her heart exulted. She
had something to do besides think.
The sailing of the boat required all
her skill and ability. 1t was no light
task to hold the helm in one hand and
the sheet in the other and fight her
way through the rising seas. The boat
rode the water like a duck, however,
and did not ship a drop of spray.
They were well past cambridge
when the day broke fair and clear.
Ellen had been so occupied with the
business of sailing the boat that she
had not paid any attention to what
was astern of her. II was Debbie
who about a half hour after sunrise
pointed out another and larger boat
following in their wake. In the pres
ence OF such a boat at such a time,
there was nothing suspicious, yet

WHERE AUBURN LOCKS ABOUND.
Found in Great Numbers in North
eastern Part of Scotland.

Red hair is found in distinct excess
north of the Grampians, and especially
in the northeast of Scotland. A sci
enlist who has made the question Of
fermentation special study, and has
just been helped to conclude a color
survey of the school children-over
50,000-of Scotland, announced this
as one of his results.
In most European countries, he said,
there is a distinct predominance of
one type over the others. In north
Germany and Sweden it is the blonde
type; in Italy the brunette. No such
predominance is found in Scotland.
Dark hair and fair are present in
equal proportions. The dominant col
or among Scottish children is brown,
and 1t has to be shown how far brown
is really a blend of fair and dark.
The proportion of red hair through
out the country is a little over 8 per
cent.-high compared with the con-
tinent One cannot overlook the ref
erence of Tacitus to the red haired
Caledonians. Some curious facts
brought to light suggest that red hair
is not entirely or strictly a racial
trait 1t may have some peculiar
physiological IL not pathological con-
nection.
