month temporary alimony. This
phase of the case was quickly disput-
ed by the defendant The decision of
the district court was appealed to the
Iowa supreme court 1t was affirmed
and after other papers had been filed
the defendant made application to
take IT to the highest court in the
land, asking for correction in the
record. The case was then referred
by the supreme court of the United
States back to the supreme court of
Iowa asking If federal question was
involved. To this the state court re-
piled in the neagtive. In the mean
time, owing TO these obstacles, the d.
vorce suit has never come TO trial, and
the temporary alimony granted by the
district court and affirmed by the
state supreme court is accommodating
and the plaintiff is restrained on the
injunction Of the defendant from using
it.

Catarrh begins by congestion OF the
blood vessels Of a mucous membrane.
Any mucous membrane is made up
mostly Of minute blood vessels. called
capilaries. Cold or irritation of any
sort is liable to produce congestion of
these capilaries. II the irritation is
slight and is quickly removed the con-
gestion very soon disappears and no
had result obtains. But II the irrita-
ton is repeated many times or is long
continued a chronic condition OF con-
gestion OF the mucous membranes may
occur. This is ordinarily called ca
tarrh.
The blood no longer circulates free.

pose the mucous membrane The
blood becomes damned up in the yes.

irritating and very unwholesome.
Such a discharge not only further irri-
tates the mucous membranes, some
times completely destroying them, but
the discharge is a weakening drain on
the system. Precious blood serum is
lost in this way.
This condition OF affairs is liable
to happen in the stomach, in the bow
els, and any other internal organ. AS
said before, 1t most frequently occurs
in the nose and throat.
Sometimes a little relief can be OBJ
tanned by the use of local applications,
especially when the catarrh is con-
fined to the nose and throat. But ca
tarrh cannot be successfully treated
by local applications. The only rem
idies that are effective are internal
remedies.

great number of minute hairs covering

penetrate among these hairs even
when the leaves are forced down be-
meath the surface.
The little RATS Of eggs that gnats

this same principle. The tiny eggs
have their points all upward, and they
are glued together so closely that,
while there is open space all around
the point of each egg, yet the width OF
these spaces is so slight that water

Not because Peruna is a remedy for
many diseases, but because catarrh
can locate itself in these various or
gans and disturb their functions.
Sometimes catarrh is associated
with constipation. Other times a ca
tarrhal subject may not be troubled
with constipation. In some instances
there is a looseness of the bowels.
People beginning the use of Peruna
for chronic catarrh, wherever located,
VIII usually get valuable advice by
writing me, giving me a statement of
the case.
/ do not think it will be necessary
for me in this article to describe ca
tHrrh of the various organs of the
body. 1t is sufficient for me to say
in a general way that any organ is
subject TO catarrh, because these or
gans are lined by a mucous men,
brane. When once catarrh attacks an
organ it deTanges the function of that
organ more or less.
If catarrh attacks the stomach dys-
pepsia is the result.
If it attacks the larynx and bron.
chial tubes, bronchitis and laryngitis
will result
If it attacks the lungs, cough and
symptoms that resemble consumption
will follow.
II catarrh attacks the kidneys dis.
turbance of the urinary organs is Ger.
tain. Catarrh of the bladder is a very
common form of catarrh. 1t produces
distressing symptoms. A large pro
( portion of men past middle life have
| tits form of catarrh, more or less.
( not only devised a remedy to meet
these cases, but l have at my com
mand a corps of assistants and help
ers which enables me to come into
personal touch with thousands oil
/ people suffering from catarrh, and

Their Floating illustrates q Curious
Property Of Water.
Many simple experiments show that
the surface of water possesses a prop
erty which causes it to resist the pas
sage of bodies either from above or be-
low. This is true not only of soapy
water, but of the cleanest and purest
water as well. A sheet of fine gauze
tends to float because, it's weight be-
ing widely distributed, each of the nu-
merous separate wires is resisted by
the surface film SO that the water can
not readily pass through the meshes.
Insects and plants utilize this fact
in many interesting ways. Some
water plants whose leaves float on
the water have a very simple con-
trivance to keep the upper surfaces Of
