When speaking of Nat Goodwin
and his beautiful wife, Maxine Elliott,
it is always the question whether to
call the other Nat's wife or Maxine's
husband, their fame being nearly upon
a par.
One day In New York when Max-
ine Elliott called at the downtown
theater for her hnsbaud, as the fa-
mous comedian stepped into the auto
the colored chauffeur turned around
and said:
"Shall we go home now, Mr. El-
liott?"
Goodwin was wild. "I knew it
would come, Max, I knew it would
come. May I use your name on mj
advertising paper, dear? 'Nat C<
Goodwin, the husband of Maxine El-
liott, will appear' and so on. It would
make a big hit ^nd mean a lot of
money."
Again, while in Chicago playing in
"The Usurper," Mr. Goodwin's busi-
ness was very bad. Miss Elliott, in
"Her Own Way," was to follow her
husband at the same theater,, nad
when she entered the dressing room
the first night she found the following
message scrawled upon the soap upon
the mirror: "Do your best, Max. You
are the breadwinner now.—Nat."

CUBAN MINISTER ,'.'i U.S.
Recommends Pe-ru-na;
For Growing Girls.
West Pemhroke, Me., April 24.—
Mrs. A. L. Smith, of this place, says
that Dodd's Kidney Pills are the best
remedy for growing girls. Mrs. Smith
emphasizes her recommendation by
the following experience:
"My daughter was thirteen years old
last November and it is now two years
since she was first taken with Crazy
Spells that would last a week and
would then pass off. In a month she
would have the spells again. At these
times she would eat very little and
was very yellow; even the whites of
her eyes would be yellow.
"The doctors gave us no encourage-
ment, they all said they could not help
her. After taking one box of Dodd's
Kidney Pills, she has not had one bad
spell. Of course, we continued the
treatment until she had used in all
about a dozen boxes, and we still give
them to her occasionally, when she is
not feeling well. Dodd's Kidney Pills
are certainly the best medicine for
growing girls."
Mothers should heed the advice of
Mrs. Smith, for by so doing, they may
save their daughters much pain and
sickness and ensure a healthy, happy
future for them.
A girl is so naturally Innocent she
can marry a man for his money and
make him think that she Is surprised
to find he has it.
Every houseKeeper should know
that if they will buy Defiance Cold
Water Starch for laundry use they
will save not only time, because It
never sticks to the Iron, but because
each package contains 16 oz.—one full
pound—while all other Cold Water
Starches are put up in %-pound pack-
ages, and the price is the same, 10
cents. Then again because Defiance
Btarch is free from all injurious chem-
icals. If your grocer tries to sell you a
12-oz. package It is because he has
a 6tock on hand which he wishes to
dispose of before he puts In Defiance.
He knows that Defiance Starch has
printed on every package in large let-
ters and figures "16 oza." Demand
Defiance tnd save much time and
money and the annoyance of the iron
•ticking. Deflate* never iticks.
Treating Fruit Trees Gnawed by Mice
or Rabbits.
The winter of 1903-04 was fearfully
fold and the snow deep. The food ol
the rabbits was scarce and they gnaw-
ed the bark from some *of our young
apple trees. Six of them were badly
girdled in this way. To pull out the
young, thrifty trees would have been
quite a loss. So I applied an effective
remedy, which is within the reach ot
all.
In spring as soon as the orchard
ground is dry enough, fill an old pail
three-fourths full with fresh cattle
droppings; with a wooden paddle mix
up the manure In the pail, adding wa-
ter to it as needed until it is of the
consistency of mortar. Apply the pre-
pared paste to the eaten parts of the
trees, putting it on as thick as It will
stick. It should be not less than an
inch thick. Now wrap all the parts
well with old cloths and tie with
strings. There is no danger of putting
too many cloths for they help retain
the moisture around the wounded
parts during the growing season.
Should the trunks be entirely
girdled, which checks the flow of sap,
cut scions of last year's growth of
wood long enough so you can enter
them at least one Inch under the bark
of the tree at the upper and lower
extremities of the wounded part. The
ends of the scions should be shaved
down so that they will wedge in snug-
ly under the bark. According to the
size of the tree, fit from two to four
of these on opposite sides of the trunk,
then cover the entire work with a coat
of manure paste and wrap with rags.
If this has been properly done the sap
will circulate through the scions, and
in this way the tree will be saved. It
is said that this treatment is not like-
ly to succeed with the plum and cher-
ry tree, but It Is fairly successful with
the pear and apple. I tried It with
one tree that was entirely girdled,
but was not successful for the top ot
the tree died. A sprout grew a little
way from the ground. I did not dis-
turb this when sawing oft the tree,
and it made a growth of some three
feet during the season.
If the trees are two inches or more
in diameter and the entire trunks are
girdled clear through the bark to the
hard wood of the tree, it is best to
pull or grub them out and plant oth-
ers. With the exception of the one
which was entirely girdled, all trees
that I treated in this way last spring
showed by their luxuriant growth that
they were doing as well as the young
trees which had not been damaged.
I know from experience that had the
wounded parts of the trees not been
covered the trees would have died. I
had some difficulty in getting the ma
nure paste to stick to the trunk when
applying it with a paddle, so used my
hands.
Mice will not gnaw trees as deeply
as rabbits. Usually only the top lay-
ers of the bark will b9 wounded, but
treatment is just as necessary as for
those damaged by rabbits. If some
should object to the manure paste
remedy let them try this: Take five
or six parts of resin and two parts
of beeswax. Melt this and while hot
add one part of tallow. Try a coat
of this on a green stick, exposing five
minutes to the cold air. If it Is too
hard and cracks easily, add a little
more tallow. With a swab apply a
coat of this wax over the wounded
parts. While applying, the wax should
be kept warm, but not too hot or It
will burn the wood or bark.—Fred
Strohschein, Winnebago Co., Wis., in
Farmers' Review,
The Kitchen garden should be
planned at once, so the work of plant
lng can be pushed as soon as the
ground Is dry enough. When work In
the fields begins, the garden will re

Senor Quesada, Cuban Minister to the United States.
Senor Quesada, Cuban Minister to the United States, is an orator born. In
an article in The Outlook for July, 1899, by George Kennan, who heard Quesada
speak at the Esteban Theatre, Matanzas, Cuba, he said: "I have seen many
audiences under the spell of eloquent speech and in the grip of strong emotional
excitement; but I have rarely witnessed such a scene as at the close of Quesada's
eulogy upon the dead patriot, Marti." In a letter to The Peruna Medicine Com-
pany, written from Washington, D. C., Senor Quesada says:
"Peruna I can recommend as a very good medi-
cine. It is an excellent strengthening tonic, and it
is a/so an efficacious cure for the almost universal
complaint of datarrh."—Qonzalo De Quesada.
Congressman .T. 0. Bankhead, of Ala-
bama, one of the most influential mem-
bers of the House of Representatives,
in a letter written from Washington,
D. C., gives his &jiti£ri$ment to the
'reat catarrh remedy, Peruna, in the
ollowing words: •
"Your Peruna ia one of the best
medicines I ever tried, and no family
should be without your remarkable
remedy. As a tonic and catarrh cure
f know ot nothing better."—J. H.
Bankhead.
There is but a single medicine which
is a radical specific for catarrh. It is
Peruna, which has stood a half century
test and cured thousands of cases.
If you do not derive prompt and satis-
factory results from the use of Peruna,
write at once to Dr. Hartman, giving a
full statement of your case and he will
be pleased to give you his valuable ad-
vice gratis.
