"PE-Rim WORKED
SIMPLY MARVELOUS."
Suffered Severely
With Headaches—
Unable to Work.
Miss Lucy V. McGivney, 452 3rd Ave.,
Brooklyn, N. Y., writes:
•'For many months I suffered se-
verely from headaches and pains in
the side and back, sometimes being
unable to attend to my daily work.
"I am better, now, thanks to Peru•
na, and am as active as ever and have
no more headaches.
••The way Peruna worked In my
case was simply marvelous."
We have in our files many grateful
letters from women who have suffered
with the symptoms named above. Lack
of space prevents our giving more *han
one testimonial here.
It is impossible to even approximate
the great amount of suffering which Pe-
runa. has relieved, or the number of
worn* i who have been restored to health
%nd st* agtli by its faithful use.
Physical Culture Orator.
After every speech he delivers
l?ourke Cockran is a sore man physi-
cally. Any one who has ever seen
Slim in oratorical action knows why
he is sore. The old flagellant monks
were not much more cruel to them-
selves than Cockran is to himself.
His favorite gesture is to slap his
thighs, and it is no love pat he gives
them. It's a good beating. Cockran
Is one of the old school, muscular,
desk pounding school of orators. If
he could not hammer his desk and
thump his thighs he would probably
think his powers failing.
Good housekeepers use the best. That's
why they buy Red Cross Ball Blue. At

Lots of folks imagine that they are
not talked about simply because they
don't hear it.

A Commercial King in the Commons.
Sir John Brunner, who celebrated
his birthday t!r<j other day, is looked
vpon as one of the commercial kings
In the house of commons. He is head
of the largest manufactory in the
world, and is deeply interested in
science and education generally. He
rivals Mr. Carnegie in the number of
free libraries, town halls and scholar-
ships which he has so generously giv-
en, especially in Cheshire, the North-
wich division of which he represents
in parliament. He urges that the
young men of the day should be given
a scientific education, and says that
every penny he has in the world
comes "from tl*e application of sci-
ence to commerce."
Guarding Against the Plague.
The fact that the steamship Burrs-
Beld, from Bombay to Philadelphia, is
detained at Reedy Island, in the Dela-
ware river, with a mysterious dis-
ease on board, thought to be the bu-
bonic plague, has awakened the very
active interest of the marine hospital
service In Washington and the Phila-
delphia! quarantine oflicials. No Asia-
tic disease is more dreaded than this
one, and all possible precautionary
measures will be taken by the govern-
ment to prevent its graining a foot-
hold.
Tuesday, April 24.
Washington.—The house passed a
resolution appropriating $1,000,000 in
addition to the amount heretofore ap-
propriated for the San Francisco suf-
ferers.
Owing to the eulogies in the sen-
ate no other business will be trans-
acted. The message of the president
relating to the San Francisco earth-
quake was not delivered to the senate
and the resolution of the house ap-
propriating $1,000,000 was not receiv-
ed from the house until Monday.
Secretary Taft has received assur-
ance from the senators that the reso-
lution will be passed, and that he can
proceed with necessary expenditure
for relief.
Monday, April 23.
Washington. — President Roosevelt
and members of his cabinet devoted
the greater part of their semi-weekly
session to a discussion of the calam-
ity which has befallen San Francisco.
The matter was taken up immediate-
ly after the session convened and it
was decided that Secretary Metcalf
who is a resident of Oakland, Cal.,
should proceed to the stricken city at
once as a representative of the na-
tional government.
Secretary Metcalf will leave for
San Francisco. It will be his effort
to consult with the governor of Cali-
fornia and the municipal authorities
of San Francisco and to advise the
national administration what, if any-
thing, may be done to alleviate the
distress there.
The statehood proposition is still in
the air. The chances are against the
admission of Oklahoma and Indian
Territory as a single state at this ses-
sion. The conferees are still meeting
almost daily, but there is little pros-
pect of their agreement on a basis that
will admit Oklahoma as a state. The
blame can not help but fail, in the
end, if there be no statehood, upon
the five members from Kansas and the
five from Missouri, who would have
made a sufficient number, with the
"insurgents." so-called, and the Demo-
crats, to have defeated the rule to*
send the bill to conference as it pass-
ed the senate, and to have accepted
the senate amendments which struck
out reference to Arizona and New
Mexico. If Campbell, Murdock, Cur-
tis, Miller and Bowersock had joined
with five Missourians, the matter
would have been settled and Oklaho-
ma admitted, or else checked up
square to "Uncle Joe" Cannon, the
speaker, and the pressure would have
been so great he would have had to
yield in the end, or bear the entire
brunt of the failure of the legislation.
As it is now, the chances are that the
blame must lie on the shoulders of
the whole house—3SG men—instead of
upon one man, the speaker.
ATTACKED THE HEART
Awful Neuralgia Cato Cured to Stay
Cured by Or. Williams'
Pink Pllla.
Neuralgia in any form is painful but
when it attacks tho heart it is frequently
fatal. Complicated with iudigostiou of
a form that affected the vital organ it
threatened serious consequences in an in-
stance just reported. Tho case is that of
Mr. F. L. Graves, of Pleaaauthill, La.,
who tells of liis trouble and euro us
follows:
" I traveled considerably, was exposed
to all kindsof weather and was irregular
in my sleeping and eating. I suppose
this wns the cause of my sickness, at
any rate, in May, 1905,1 had got so bad
that I was compelled to quit work and
take to my bod. I land a good doctor
and took his medicine faithfully but
grew worse. I gave rip hopo of getting
better and my neighbors thought I was
surely going to die.
"I hiul smothering spells that it is
awful to recall. My heart fluttered and
then seemed to cease beating. I could
not lio oil my left side at all. My hnnds
and feet swelled and so did my face.
After reading about Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills in a newspaper I decided to try
them and they suited my case exactly.
Before long I could see an improvement
and after taking a few boxes I was en-
tirely cured. I am glad to make this
statement and wish it could canso every
sufferer to try Dr. Williams'Piuk Pills,"
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills do not simply
deaden pain; they cure the trouble which
causes the pain. They are guaranteed to
contain no narcotic, stimulant or opiate.
Those who take them run no danger of
forming any drug habit. They act
d ireetly on theblood and it is only through
the blood that any medicine can reach
the nerves.

druggists or will be sent, postpaid, oil
receipt of price, 50 cents per box, six
boxes for $2.50, by the Dr. Williams Med-
icine Co., Schenectady, N.Y.
Men who try to keen up appearances
often find it necessary to keep up dis-
appearances later on.

Dr. Hale's Story.
Dr. Edward Everett Hale addressed
the recent divorce reform congress in
Washington. He said the apologies
put forward by some opponents of
change reminded him of the remark
made by a gourmet bishop during
Lent. The bishop was seated next to
an irreverent young woman, who said
on seeing the bishop attack a plate of
rich turtle soup: "I thought your
grace fasted during Lent." The bish-
op put down his spoon and allowed
his face to become pensive. "Ah, I
do fast in Lent," he said. "I subsist
chiefly on fish." He swallowed a
lump of meat worth about a dollar.
"Turtle," he added, "is a kind of fish."

British Generals as Cooks.
It has been said of General Sir Red-
vers Buller that he is such an excel-
lent cook that he would have little
difficulty in obtaining a first-class
chef's position in a West end hotel.
In his younger days, before he reach-
ed his high military rank, his brother
officers used to say that Redvers Bul-
ler could make an appetizing dinner
out of old saddles when rations were
short on a campaign. Another dls-"
tmgulshed soldier who shares with
General Buller a wonderful skill in
the gastronomic art is Major General
Baden-Powell.

Cannon's Birthday Party.
Speaker Cannon's birthday party,
when he becomes 70 years old, will
take the form of a great reception in
his honor in Washington early in May.
There are those who see politics in
tho affair. But Mr. Fairbanks, what

RUNNING SORES ON LIMBS.
Llttie Glrl'« Obstinate Case of Eczema
—Mother Says: "Cuticura Reme-
dies a Household Standby."
"Last year, after having my little
girl treated by a very prominent
physician, for an obstinate case of
eczema, I resorted to the Cuticura
Remedies, and was so well pleased
with the almost instantaneous relief
afforded that we discarded the physi-
cian's prescription and relied entirely
on the Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Oint-
ment, and Cuticura Pills. When we
commenced with the Cuticura Reme-
dies her feet and limbs were cover-
ed with running sores. In about six
weeks we had her completely well,
and there has been no recurrence of
tho trouble. We find that the Cuti-
cura Remedies are a valuable house-
hold standby, living as we do, twelve
miles from a doctor, and where it
costs from twenty to twenty-five dol-
lars to come up on the mountain.

mount, Walden's Ridge, Tenn., Oct.
