A letter recently received by Dr. Hartman from Sister Beatrix, 410 W. 30th
street, New York, reads as follows:
f l
t Dr. S. B. Hartman, Columbus, Ohio: *
I Dear Sir :—" / cannot say too much in praise of Peruna. Eight bottles J
4 of it cured me of catarrh of the lungs of four years standing, and I would t
f not have been without it for anything. It helped several Sisters of coughs, T
I and colds and I have yet to find one case of catarrh that It does not cure. ” I

Interesting Letters from
Catholic institutions.
In every country of the civilized
world the Sisters of Charity are known.
Not only do they minis
ter to the spiritual and
intellectual needs of the
charges committed to
their care, but they also
minister to their bodily
needs. With so many
children to take care of and to pro
tect from climate and disease, these
wise and prudent sisters have found
Peruna a never-failing safeguard.
Dr. Hartman receives many letters
from Catholic Sisters from all over the
United States. A recommend recently
received from a Catholic institution in
Detroit, Mich., reads as follows :

Dr. S. B. Hartman, Columbus, Ohio:
Dear Sir:—“ The young girl who
used the Peruna was suffering from
laryngitis, and loss of voice. The re
sult of the treatment was most satis
factory. She found great relief, and
after farther use of the medicine we
hope to be able to say she is entirely
cured. ”—Sisters of Charity.
This young’ girl was under the care of
the Sisters of Charity and used Peruna
for catarrh of the throat, with good re
sults as the above letter testifies.
If you do not derive prompt and satis
factory results from the use of Peruna,
write a.t once to Dr. ITartman, giving a
full statement of your case, and he will
be pleased to give you his valuable
advice gratis.

'
SOUTH MUST CULTIVATE ART.
ScIiooIh for Tralles nml Industrial
Artn Not Alone Sutlleient— Tl»e
South Mint Cultlvite Art.
Schools for teaching- trades and the
industrial and commercial arts are
not alone sufficient. Man shall not
live by bread alone; neither shall a
nation or a people attain its. fullest
development, its richest life by de
veloping its bread-winning (lowers
alone, and the qualities of mind lies
essary thereto. It must not be for
gotten that there is an aesthetic ele
ment in the life of tin; individual and
in the multitude. Truth is beauty;
but beauty is truth also.
In the south we must have schools
of art in which the aesthetic powers
of our children may be cultivated as
freely, as fully, and as much to pur
pose as the mechanical (lowers in the
schools of industrial arts. Paintings,
sculpture, music, architecture are no
less legitimate expressions of the life
of a noble people than roads, bridges,
ships and labor-saving machinery. If
rarer, they a-re only to be sought
more diligently and valued more high
ly. (ienius for these is found among
the children of the humble and poor
just as often as among the children
of the rich; and when found it must
be developed, or the whole people
will be so much the poorer in this
finer wealth. Schools of music and
the fine arts must be as free as any
other schools. What might not any
southern state pay for a few great
architects, painters.sculptors and mu
sicians? We may not neglect these
arts in our education except at the
price of being condemned to gross
utiliarinnism.
And that we may develop the aes
thetic nature of all the people and
the more surely discover the individ
uals of greater talent or genius, mu
sic, drawing and coloring, at least,
must be an essential part of the
curriculum of every elementary and
secondary school. There must also
be pictures and easts to form tlie
tastes of tiie children by the silent
influence of their presence.
FIGURES FROM THE CENSUS.

According to tin estimate made
from 1he latest, census returns tlmrc
are in llie United States 40,782.007 per
sons over twenty-one years old. These
are divided educationally about as
follows:
Class 1. Without school
training .4,GS2,49S
Class 2. With only common
school training ..32,862,591
Class 3. With common and
high school training. 2,105,357
Class 4. With college or
higher education added- 1,071,201
Who's Who in America gives a list
of 8,000 persons now living in the
United States who have become fa
mous for some work of importance
to the people of the country at large
or of some considerable portion of
it; and an effort has been made to
determine how many of these 8,000
distinguished citizens belong to each
of these classes.
'The 4,682,498 of class J furnish.. 31
The 32.862.591 of class 2 furnish. 803
The 2,165,357 of class 3 furnish. .1.245
The 1,071,201 of class 4 furnish.. 5,768
It thus appears:
1st. That an uneducated child has
one chance in 150,000 of attaining dis
tinction as a factor in the progress
of the age.
2d. That a common school educa
tion will increase his chances nearly
four times.
3d. That a high school training
will increase the chances of the
common school boy twenty-three
times, giving him eighty-seven times
the chance of the uneducated.
4th. That a college education in
creases the chance of the high school
boy nine times, giving him 219 times
llie chance of the common school boy
and more than 860 times the chance
of the untrained.

We are making the experiment of
self-government—a government of
the people—and it has seemed a log
ical conclusion to all nations at all
times that the rulers of tin: people
should have the best education attain
able. Then, of course, it follows that
the entire people of a demoeraej'
should be educated, for they are the
rulers. The patriotic citizen sees
that a government managed by illit
erate people is a government of one
sided and shallow experiences, anil
that a government, by the educated
classes insures the benefits of a much
wider knowledge of the wise ways of
doing things.—W. T. Harris.

Granton, Okla., Feb. 9th—After ten years
E. II. Gosney of Granton has at last found
a cure for Kidney Trouble. Mr. Gosney
suffered very severely with Kidney t om
plaint and some ten years ago made up his
nnnd to find a euro if one was to be had.
He has tried and tried and experimented
with every kidney medicine he could hear
of. Although he was always disappointed
he kept on trying till at last hisperseverence
was rewarded and he found a complete
cure. , , ...
lie is a well man to-day and explains it
as follows:
‘Everything failed to cure me and I was
grooving worse and worse till 1 tried a new
remedy called Dodd’s Kidney Pills and I
had not taken many of them before 1
knew that I had at last found the right
thing. I am entirely cured and I cannot
say too much for Dodd’s Kidney Pills.”

BEAUTY AND PURITY
Ancient and Modern Ideas on the Subject.
Time and Disease the Effacing Agents
of Beauty. What Has Science Done
to Restore the Lily and the Rose?
nocrates called beauty a 9hort-lived
tyianny, Plato a privilege of nature,
Theocritus a delightful prejudice,
Theophrastus a silent cheat, Carneades
a solitary kingdom, Homer a glorious
gift of nature, Ovid a favor of the
gods. Aristotle affirmed that beauty
was better than all the letters of recom
mendation in the world, and yet none
of these distinguished authorities has
left us even a hint of how beauty is to
be perpetuated, or the ravages of age
and disease defied. Time soon blends
the lily and the rose into the pallor of
age, disease dots the fair face with
cutaneous disfigurations and crimsons
the Roman nose with unsightly flushes,
moth, if not rust, corrupts the glory
of eyes, teeth, and lips yet beautiful by
defacing the complexion, and fills the
sensitive soul with agony unspeakable.
If such be the unhappy condition of
one afflicted with slight skin blemishes,
what must be the feelings of those In
whom torturing humors have for
years run riot, covering the skin with
scales and sores and charging the
blood with poisonous elements to
become a part of the system until
death? It is vain to attempt to por
tray such suffering. Death in many
cases might be considered a blessing.
The blood and fluids seem to be im
pregnated with a fiery element which,
when discharged through the pores
upon the surface of the body, inflames
and burns until, in his efforts for relief,
the patient tears the skin with his
nails, and not until the blood flows
does sufficient relief come to cause him
to desist.
Thus do complexional defects merge
into torturing disease, and piqued van
ity give place to real suffering. A
little wart on the nose or cheek grows
to the all-devouring lupus, a patch of
tetter on the palm of the hand or on
the limbs suddenly envelops the body
in its fiery embrace, a bruise on the leg
expands Into a gnawing ulcer, which
reaches out its fangs to the sufferer’s
heart in every paroxysm of pain, a
small kernel in the neck multiplies into
a dozen, which eat away the vitality,
groat pearl-like scales grow from little
rash-like inflammations in such abun
dance as to pass credulity; and so on
may we depict the sufferings to which
poor humau nature is subject, all of
which involve great mental distress
because of personal disfigurations.
If there were Dot another external
disease known, eczema alone would be
a sufficient iuflictlon on mankind. It
pervades all classes, and descends Im
partially through generations. While
some are constantly enveloped in it,
others have it confined to small
patches in the ears, on the'scalp, on
the breast, on the palms of the hands,
on the limbs, etc., but everywhere Us
distinctive feature Is a small watery
blister, which discharges an acrid
fluid, causing heat, inflammation, and
intense itching. Ring-worm, tetter,
scalled head, dandruff, belong to this
scaly and itching order of diseases.
Psoriasis, our modern leprosy, with
Its mother-of-pearl scale, situated on
a reddened base, which bleeds upon
the removal of the scale, is to be
dreaded and avoided, as of old. Im
petigo, barber’s Itch, erysipelas, and a
score of minor disorders make up in
part the catalogue of external diseases
of the skin. Thus far we have made
no allusion to those afflictions which
are manifestly impurities of the blood,
viz.: swelling of the glands of the
throat, ulcers on the neck and limbs,
tumors, abscesses, and mercurial
poisons, with loss of hair, because
the whole list can be comprehended in
the one word scrofula.
It is in the treatment of torturing,
disfiguring humors and affections of
the skin, scalp, and blood, with loss of
hair, that the Cuticura remedies have
achieved their greatest success. Orig
inal in composition, scientifically com
pounded, absolutely pure, unchangeable
in any climate, always ready, and agree
able to the most delicate and sensitive,
they present to young aud old the most
successful curatives of modern times.
This will be considered strong laugnage
by those acquainted with the character
and obstinacy of blood and skin humors
but it is justified by Innumerable suc
cesses where all the remedies aud meth
ods in vogue have failed to cure, and,
iu many cases, to relieve, even.
The Cuticura treatment is at once
agreeable, speedy, economical, aud
comprehensive. Bathe the affected
parts freely with hot water and Cuti
cura soap, to cleanse the surface of
crusts and scales, and soften the
thickened cuticle. Dry, without hard
rubbing, and apply Cuticura Ointment
to allay itching, irritation, and inflam
mation, and soothe and heal, and, lastly,
take Cuticura Resolvent, to cool an<i
cleanse the blood. This treatment af
fords instant relief, permits rest and
sleep in the severest forms of eczema
and other Itching, burning, and scaly
humors, and points to a speedy, perma
nent, and economical cure of torturing
disfiguring humors, eczemas, rashes,
and Inflammations, from infancy to
age, when all other remedies and the
best physicians fail. The remedies con
stituting the Cuticura system will repay
an individual scrutiny of their remark
able properties.
Cuticura Soap contains in a modified
form the medicinal properties of Cuti
cura Ointment, the great skin cure and
purest and sweetest of emollients, com
bined with the most delicate and re
freshing of flower odors. It purifies
and invigorates the pores of the skin,
and imparts activity to the oil glands
and tubes, thus furnishing an outlet
for unwholesome matter, which if re
tained would cause pimples, black
heads, rashes, oily, mothy skin, and
other complexional disfigurations, as
well as scalp affections and irritations,
falling hair, and baby rashes. Its gen
tle and continuous action on the natural
lubricators of the skin keeps the latter
transparent, soft, flexible, and healthy.
Hence its constant use, assisted by an
occasional use of Cuticura Ointment,
realizes the fairest complexion, the
softest, whitest hands, aDd the most
luxuriant, glossy hair within the do
main of the most advanced scientific
knowledge to supply.
Cuticura Ointment Is the most suc
cessful external curative for torturing,
disfiguring humors of the skin and
scalp, including loss of hair, in proof
of which a single anointing with it,
preceded by a hot bath with Cuticura
Soap, and followed in the severer cases
by a full dose of Cuticura Resolvent, is
sufficient to afford immediate relief in
the most distressing forms of itching,
burning, and scaly humors, permit rest
and sleep, and point to a speedy cure
when all other remedies fail. It is espe
cially so in the treatment of infants
and children, cleansing, soothing, and
healing the most distressing of infan
tile humors, and preserving, purifying,
and beautifying the skin, scalp, and
hair.
Cuticura Ointment possesses, at the
same time, the charm of satisfying
the simple wants of the toilet of all
ages, in caring for the skin, scalp,
hair, and hands far more effectually,
agreeably, and economically than the
most expensive of toilet emollients,
while free from tvery ingredient of a
doubtful or dangerous character. Its
“One Night Treatment of the Hands,”
or “Single Treatment of the Hair,” or
use after athletics, cycling, golf, ten
nis, ridiug, sparring, or any sport, each
in connection with the use of Cuticura
Soap, is sufficient evidence of this.
Of all remedies for the purification
of the blood and circulating fluids, none
approaches in specific medical action
Cuticura Resolvent. It neutralizes and
resolves away (hence its name) scrofu
lous, inherited, and other humors in
the blood, which give rise to swellings
of the glands, pains in the bones, and
torturing, disfiguring eruptions of the
skin and scalp, with loss of hair.
Cuticura Resolvent extends its puri
fying Influence by means of the pores
to the surface of the skin, allaying
irritation, inflammation, itching, and
burning, and soothing and healing.
Hence its success in the treatment of
distressing humors of the skin, scalp,
and blood, with loss of hair, which fail
to be permanently cured by external
remedies alone.
The grandest testimonial that can
be offered Cuticura remedies is their
world-wide sale, due to the personal
recommendations of those who have
used them. It is difficult to realize the
mighty growth of the business done
under this name. From a small begin
ning in the simplest form, against prej
udice and opposition, against monied
hosts, countless rivals, and trade in
difference, Cuticura remedies have be
come the greatest curatives of their
time, and, in fact, of all time, for no
where in the history of medicine is
to be found another approaching them
in popularity and sale. In every clime
and with every people they have met
with the same reception. The confines
of the earth are the only limits to their
growth. They have conquered the
world.
To the test of popular judgment all
things mundane must finally come.
The civilized world has rendered its
verdict in favor oi Cuticura.
