writes: ssTwo years ax0 our Hfffe boy,
Herman, was taken down with scarlet
fever. He took cold with it, and in
stead Of the eruptiens coming to the
surface they affected his lungs and
stomach. For weeks we watched by
his bedside, hardly expecting him to
live from one hour 10 the next.
"Finally he became little better and
was able to sit up. Then he commenced
to cough, and in spite Of everything we
could do he seemed to get worse all the
time. His coughing spells would last
until he was completely exhausted, and
his lungs hurt him great deal. Every
body thought he had consumption.
"One day, while at the drug store, my
husband saw a Peruna almanac and
brought it home. We read in it per-
feet description of his case and we
thought we would try. Peruna. We
bought bottle, quit everything else,
and began giving him Peruna.
"By the time two thirds of the bottle
was used the cough had almost gone.
After he had taken two bottles he was
perfectly cured. He has not seen sick
day since and is a hearty, healthy boy.

MANY WEAR COSTLY FooTGEAR.
Enormous Sums Said to Be Spent by
English Aristocracy

1t would surprise most people to
know of the huge sums which some
OF the English aristOcracy spend on
shoes, especially on slippers. Only the
other day a countess whose name il;
familiar TO every one, had a pair Of
slippers made which were decorated
IN a picture pattern, like a pair OF
worked slippers, with precious stones,
these being largely Tubies, emeralds
and diamonds. The result was exceed
ingly beautiful, but the cost was over
S22,5OO.
There is one accomplished workman
In London whose sole occupation is
that of mounting fancy slippers with
jewels. The present countess dowager
OF x some years ago had made
her husband was then alive. and gave
the order-a pair Of slippers, in which
she was to appear as Cinderella at
fancy dress ball given by the duke Of
Manchester. The slippers were one
mass of diamonds, the value Of the
stones being considerably over 100000,
while the cost Of mounting them was
upward Of $3.50.
A South American gentleman not
long since presented to a foreign sing.
err, then in London, q pair Of slippers
ornamented with two butterflies of
different patterns in precious stones,
the cost being nearly 100000. But in
reality it is quite common thing for
slippers ornamented with gold threads
and jewels. and valued at from $5 to
$4,000, to be supplied. and many brides
on their honeymoon are furnished
with even ordinary boots. shoes and
slippers to the value of 81 900 or SO.
