Touchina the Cardinal.

At the Democratic convention in Baltimore last summer two of the ser geants-at-arms were Ohioans, Col. John Bolan of Toledo and Capt Joseph Bowling of Dayton. Bolan is the wit who laid down the maxim that "anny man who parts his hair in the middle is no Dimmycrat."
 When Cardinal Gibbons had finish ed the opening prayer, he descended from the rostrum and made his way toward the door. As he neared the exit where the two Ohioans were on guard, Bolan whispered:
 Joe, touch him whin he passes ye."
 "All right, colonel" replied Bowling, with an inocent air. What pocket has he got it in?"-Popular Maga- zine.

WHERE WE FIND EMERALD
Famous Muzo Mines in the Repubi of Colombia Produce Finest
 Gems.

The finest emeralds are found in the Republic of Colombia, at the fa- nous Muzo mines in the department of Boyaca, seventy miles north by west of Bogota, which have been worked since 1858. The Spaniards mined there in the middle of the six tenth century, but withdrew after a time, owing to continual fighting with the Indians; with the result that for awhile the locality of the mines was unknown They are now worked by an English company, in partner ship with the government. The emer- aids at Muzo occur in calcite veins running through black carboniferous limestone in all directions and at all angles. Often the limestone is GOV cred with earth, in which bushes and trees are growing; this has to be cleared before prospecting is possible. When calcite veins have been located, the side of the hill is dug away in banks" usually by Indians, whose chief tool is a steel bar forged to point at one end. The pieces of cal cite vein are examined superffcially for emeralds, and are then set aside for conveyance to the sorting-shed. where a detailed examination is made, teen grades according to color, trans parency, size, freedom from flaws, and so on.

Dr. Hartman Says:
Write to Peruna Testimonials If You
 Want to Know the Truth.

The following letter was received by Dr. Hartman through his regular correspondence:
 I notice the testimonial of Mrs Alice Bogle, which you give in your last article. If I should write her do you suppose she would give me fur ther particulars? I have heard it said many times that such testimonials are fakes; that they are either absolutely fictitious or else the people have been hired to write them. I have been in clined to write you a great many times but these stories about patent medicine advertisements have dis couraged me from doing so. I am afflicted with catarrh and should like very much to find a remedy such as your article describes"
 To the above letter Dr. Hartman made the following reply:
 My dear Madam:-I do not wonder that you are confused and have lost all faith in advertised remedies. There has been so much said against them, so much. controversy concern ing them, I am not surprised that some people have lost confidence in them.
 I wish you would write Mrs. Bogle, as one woman to another. l wish you would ask her whether she has been hired to write such a testimonial, whether her testimonial represents the truth.
 I hope you will remember that she Is housewife, like yourself, that she has something to do besides write letters, that she is a woman of mod crate means and cannot afford to write these letters and pay her own postage. I hope you will enclose stamp so she can answer you without loss to herself. Mrs. Bogle is very estimable lady and no doubt you will both profit by being acquainted with each other.
 Should you conclude to try Peruna for your catarrh I would be very glad to hear of the result can assure you that no use will be made of your let ter, except by your written consent. Mrs. Bogle very kindly consented to have me use her letter, which is my reason for doing so, and you will be treated exactly as she has been
