Minneapolis, Aug. Observation-Disclosures
ing Governor John A. Johnson's re
peated declaration that he would posi- :
lively not be a candidate for renomina
ticn for the office of governor of Min
nesota, and which has lately been
coupled with the threat that if he was
named against his will, the convention
would have its work to do over again,
the probabilities are today that the
democratic convention which assem-
bled at II o'clock would ignore the
governors wishes. Yesterday when the
fact was brought to his attention that
he might be made the nominee de-
spite his protests, Governor Johnson
said that if he was nominated the
ticket would be without a head, for
he would not lift his finger to further
| his candidacy. This emphatic declara
ton may have its effect, and in that
event j. G. Armson. mayor of Still
water, Mimi, will undoubtedly be the
nominee However, several counties
have declared for Johnson and there
may be a large sized vote for him on
the first ballot.

The Lady in the Moon.

An amateur astronomer writes Of the
"lady in the moon :" at is a very
beautiful face seen in profile and up
lifted, as though in proud disdain of
things terrestrial. The curve of the
throat is exquisite, and indeed the en-
tire outline is marvelously lifelike. The
moon lady may best be observed
through small opera glass when our
satellite is at half. At that time the
tip Of the chin about touches the ter
minator-that is, the dividing line be-
tween the light and dark portions of
the lunar surface. Most people can
recognize the man in the moon. Well,
the hair Of the lady, in which 1 can
always fancy l see a spray of orange
blossom, forms the mans left eye, the
nose and mouth his nose, and the chin
and throat the mans mouth"

HI. BIun Failed.

BY one of those accidents that hap
pen now and then a Cleveland firm
gave a responsible position not long
ago to a young man who didn't know
enough TO suck alum without a recipe.
On actual merit he couldn't have got
a job carrying nuts TO squirrel. But
he had been 70 college-just until the
faculty found it Out-and carried a
cane and no end Of nerve, and some
how or other the Cleveland concern
was mesmerized into giving him good
job in the Office.
After he had been there about week
the general manager gave him letter
TO be answered. He outlined briefly
what he wanted said in the reply and
left it to the young man TO frame up
the letter as he thought best.
Now, the young man knew as much
about how to write good business
letter as he did about bone tumor.
But he thought Of a way out. He
turned it over to the stenOgrapher,
The stenographer didn't feel entirely
equal to the job. She went to the gen
eral manager and asked him what he
wanted her to say.
He. of course. was wise in a minute,
but he merely dictated letter to her
without comment.
Pretty wise little girl, that" thought
the young man when he got the letter.
faint every girl could have written
that"
Then he took it to "the old man. to
sign.
Don't you think that's a pretty good
letter?" he asked.
at ought to be-" said the old man.
at wrote it,
The young man doesn't work there
any more.

The Evolution of
Household Remedies.

The modern patent medicine bust"
ness is the natural outgrowth of the
old-time household remedies.
In the early history Of this country,
EVERY FAMILY HAD ITS HOME
EADE MEDICINES. Herb teas,
bitters, laxatives and tonics, were to be
found in almost every house, compound
ed by the housewife, sometimes assisted
by the apothecary or the family doctor.
Such remedies as picra, which was
aloes and quassia, dissolved in apple
brandy. Sometimes hop tonic, made
of whiskey, hops and bitter barks. A
score or more Of popular, homemade
remedies were thus compounded, the
formulate for which were passed along
from house to house, sometimes written,
sometimes verbally communicated.
The patent medicine business is q
natural outgrowth from this whole
some, old-time custom. In the begin
ming, some enterprising doctor, i'm
pressed by the usefulness Of one OF
these homemade remedies, would take
it up, improve it in many ways, manu-
facture it on q large scale, advertise it
mainly through almanacs for the home,
and thus it would become used over
large area. LATTERLY THE HOUSE
hold REMEDY BUSINESS TOOK
A MORE EXACT AND SCIENTIFIC
FORM.
Peruna was originally one of these
old-time remedies. It was used by the
Mennonites, of Pennsylvania, before it
was offered to the public for sale. DR..
Hartman, THE ORIGINAL COM.
FOUNDER OF PERUNA, is Of Men
MONTE origin. First, he prescribed it
for his neighbors and his patients.
The sale Of it increased, and at last he
established q mandatory and fur
nished it to the general drug trade.
Peruna is useful in q great many
climatic ailments, such as coughs, colds,
sore throat, bronchitis, and catarrhal
diseases generally. THOUSANDS OF
FAMILIES HAVE LEARNED THE
USE OF PERUNA and its value in the
treatment Of these ailments. They
have learned to trust and believe in
Dr.. Hartman's judgment, and to rely
on his remedy, Peruna.

FURIOUS HUMoR ON CHILD.

Itching, Bleeding Sores Covered
Bodybuilding Helped Her-Cuti-
cUra Cures Her I'm Five Days.
After my granddaughter Of about
seven years had been cured Of the
measles, she was attacked about a fort
hight later by a furious itching and
painful eruption all over her body, es-
recially the upper part Of 1t, forming
watery and bleeding sores, especially
under the arms, of considerable size.
She suffered a great deal and for three
weeks we nursed her every night, us
ing all the remedies we could think of.
Nothing would help. We tried the
Cuticura Remedies and after twenty
four hours we noted considerable i'm
provement, and after using only one
complete set Of the Cuticura Remedies,
in five consecutive days the little one,
much to our joy, had been entirely
cured, and has been well for a long
time. Mrs. +. Ruefenacht, R. f. D. No.

Flag Warming to Autos.

Acting under the authority of the pre-
feet of police, the French Automobile
Club inaugurated in Paris an extraor-
binary corps of bicycle policemen, who
wear a uniform resembling that of the
ordinary bicycle squad and carry three
small flags, meaning, respectively,
Smoke" TOO fast" and "Smell." Each
of these signals is destined to warn au-
tOmoDilists who are unconsciOusly in
fringing the municipal regulations
At present the squad devotes it's en-
tire attention to the Champs Elysees,
but if the service is found to be effect
i've, the number will be increased so as
to include all the principal thorough
fares. The entire expense of the new
auxiliaries will be borne by the auto
mobile club.

Of nectar" flowed through the plains

of accumulation; if ever there were
time when the earth and its fruits were
