A parson who occasionally preachM
'in touth London arrlred to take thai
plae* of tike Tlcar, who had been called '
away on account of some family be-
reavement and found an old and rather
asthmatlo lady struggling up the Bteps
which led to the front door. He
courteously gave her his arm to assist
her and when they reached the top the
dame asked him If he knew who waa
going to preach. "Mr. So-and-So," re-
plied the parson, giving his own name.
"Oh, dear me," exclaimed the old lady;
"help me down again, If you please;
I'd rather listen to the groaning and
creaking of a windmill than sit under
him," and she prepared to descend.
The parson gently assisted her down-
stairs and sighfully remarked as he
bade har goodby: "I wouldn't go in
either if I weren't the preacher."

To Test Wall I'aperi.
Arsenic is very often present in Che
pigment used for wall papers, and as
•vary one knows, If one covers one's
walls with a paper containing deadly
poison one's health must sufTer. It
Is important, therefore to select wall
papers which do not contain arsenic,
and the method of testing them Is sim-
ple In the extreme. Take a piece of
paper and light it, and if arsenic be
present you will notice an odor present
like that of garlic. Do not inhale the
smoke. Another way of testing the
paper is to pour ^ver it a little diluted
hydrochloric aria, If the greens in
the pattern become blue in this treat-
ment it Is because they contain arsenia

Sixty years of

what Ayer's Cherry

"I had a most stubborn cough
for many years. It deprived me
of sleep and made me lose flesh
rapidly. I was treated by many
eminent physicians, but could get
no permanent relief. I then tried
Ayer's Cherry Pectoral, and I be-
gan to get better at once. I now
sleep well, my old flesh is back,
and I enjoy myself in every way

Mr. Isaac Brock, born in Buncombe Co,. North Carolina, March 1,1788,
.Says: "I attribute my extreme old age to the use of Peruna."

Always conquered the grippe
with Pe-ru-na.
Witness in a land suit at age
of 110 years.
Believes Pe-ru-na the greatest
remedy of the age for catarrhal
diseases.
Isaac Brock, a citizen of McLennan
county, 'texas, has lived III years.
He now lives with his son-in-law at
Valley Mills, Texas.
In speaking of his good health and
extreme old age, Mr. Brock says:
"After a man has lived in the
world us long as I have, he ought
to have found out a great many
things by experience.
'•One of the things I have found
out to my entire satisfaction Is tie
proper remeJy for ailments that
are due directly to the effects of
the climate.
"During my long life I have
known a great many remedies for
coughs, colds, catarrh and diar-
rhoea. I had always supposed
these affections to be different dis-
eases, but in reading Dr. Hart-
man's books I have found out that
these affections arc the same and
that they are properly called ca-
tarrh.
"I had several long sieges with
the grip. At first I did not know
that Peruna was a remedy for this
disease. When I heard that la
grippe was epidemic catarrh,
tried Peruna for la grippe and
found It to be Just the thing.
"As for Dr. Hartman's remedy,
Pe-ru-na, I have found it to be the
best, if not the only, reliable rem
edy for these affections. It has
been my standby for many years,
and I attribute my good health and
extreme old age to this remedy.
Very truly yours,

Millions op Women Use Cuticura Soap exclusively
for preserving, purifying, and beautifying the skin, for
cleansing the scalp of crusts, scales, and dandruff, and the
stopping of falling hair, for softening, whitening, and
healing red, rough, and sore hands, in tlio form of baths
for annoying irritations, inflammations, and chafing*, or
too free or offensive perspiration, in the form of washes,
for ulcerative weaknesses, and for many sanative antiseptic
purposes which readily suggest themselves to women, and
especially mothers, and for all the purposes of the toilet,
bath, and nursery. No amount of persuasion can induce
those who have once used it to use any other, especially
for preserving and purifying the skin, scalp, and hair of
infants and children. Cuticura Soap combines delicate
emollient properties derived from Cuticura. the great
skin cure, with the purest of cleansing ingredients and the
most refreshing of flower odors. >io other medicated or
toilet soap ever compounded is to be compared with it
for preserving, purifying, and beautifying the skin, scalp,
hair, and hands. No other foreign or domestic toilet soap,
however expensive, is to be compared with it for all the
purposes of the toilet, bath, and nursery. Thus it com-
bines in One Soap at One Price, viz., Twentv-Five Cents,
the best skin and complexion soap, the best toilet and
best baby soap in the world.- ^
