FOR SYSTEMIC CATARRH
Peculiar to Summer Pe-ru-na Gives
Prompt and Permanent Relief.
Clem G. Moore, Editor of the Advocate-Democrat of Crawfordsville, Ga.,
writes the Peruna Medicine Company as follows :
Gentlemen—•• After four years of Intense suffering, caused by systemic
catarrh, which 1 contracted while editing, and traveling for my paper, / have
been greatly relieved by the use of Peruna. I gave up work during these years
of torture, tried various remedies and many doctors, but all the permanent
relief came from the use of Peruna. My trouble was called indigestion, but It
was catarrh all through my system, and a few bottles of Peruna made me feel
like another person, noting the Improvement after I had used the first bottle.
Peruna is undoubtedly the best catarrh remedy ever compounded.—Clem G.
Moore.
Captain Percy W. Moss, Paragould,
Ark., says: “I think Peruna is un
doubtedly the finest and surest catarrh
cure ever prepared, and it has taken
but two bottles to convince me of this
fact. ”
Judge Wm. T. Zenor. of Washington,
P. C., writes from 313 N. Capital Street,
Washington, D. C.:
“ I take pleasure in saying that I can
cheerfully recommend the use of Pe
runa as a remedy for catarrhal trouble
and a most excellent tonic for general
conditions.”—Wm. T. Zenor.
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.
Address Dr. Hartman, President of
The Hartman Sanitarium, Columbus,
Ohio.
LOVE STORY WELL TOLD
A Young: Man’s Clever Method of IVli
nine: n Confession from
His Adored One.
She was pouring at a tea that afternoon
ind she looked unusually bewitching, soys
the Smart Set. He was sitting at her left, in
1 bower of paints that almost concealed him.
He was holding one of her hands under
cover of the tablecloth, while she tried
to pour with the other. She did not look
it him as he talked, but he knew by be
color and the little quiver of the hand he
was holding that she heard everything he
said. “Dearest,” he murmured, as she sent
one cup off without a spoon and another
ailed only with whipped cream, “dearest,
;f you don’t mind my saying all this to you,
just drop a spoon. Couldn't you manage
it?” A clatter of silver and more color in
the girl’s face, as in stooping to pick up the
spoon he kissed her hand. Spurred by
this success, he went on: “Dearest, if—if
you return it—that is, if you love me, you
know—just put three lumps of sugar into
the next cup you pour—‘"i-e-s.’ Or, if you
don’t, two, to spell ‘N-o.’ ” One, two, three!
The tiny cup was almost full, and in her
haste to hide her confession she covered the
three lumps hastily with chocolate and
cream and sent them off. lie asked his
mother as thev drove home if she had en
joyed herself. “Ugh, no!” was her disgusted
reply. “Such horrible stuff to drink as they
gave one. Why, my cup was half full of
sugar!”
“If there ever was a terrible child in this
world,” remarked the worried mother,
“he’s one.” “What’s bis particular fault?”
“Do what I will, rcan't break him of the
habit of telling the truth right out when
we have company.”—Philadelphia Times.

You hear these words every day ; as

often are these words repeated. More
than likely you speak the same signifi

do feel far from well most of the time.

A GLORIOUS SIGHT
Fields of Wheat In Which the Stocks
Were So Thick. It Wan Impossible
to Drive Between Them.
To the Editor:
A gentleman from Duluth made a
trip through a portion of Western
Canada last summer, and writing of
what he saw, says:
“Wheat, for instance, will average
twenty-five or thirty bushels to the
acre. I saw shocks so thick in the
field that it would be ulmost impossi
ble to drive between them. Winters,
it is said, are longer than near Duluth,
but the Japan current, warm chinook
winds and dry atmosphere make the
winters comparatively mild.”
Thousands of such testimonies are
to be had from settlers who have
taken advantage of the low-priced
lands of Western Canada. During the
present year new districts will be
opened up in the Saskatchewan Val
ley, and advantage should be taken of
this at once. Information can be had
from any agent of the Government,
whose advertisement appears else
where in your columns.
Yours truly,

A STRONG HAY RAC1L
When Properly Mode, Painted and
Kept Dry When Not In l:«c, It
Will Last a Lifetime.
In making a hay rack I would by
nil means use a low wagon; no other
wagon is as handy for hauling hay or
grain. Use strong pine and have it
smoothed. As shown herewith, the
sills (a) should be 18 feet by 2x7
inches. The four cross pieces (c) arc
6Vi feet by 2x5 inches. These can be
made lighter by cutting down to 3
inches from sills to end. The small
piece (c) explains how this is done.
Cross pieces (c) are all placeu on top
of sills (a). Dropping cross pieces
(c), one-half inch in sills (a), as
shown, will make the rack more dur
able and secure. Four bolts, one-half
by 12 inches, for end cross pieces, and
four bolts, one-half by 14 inches, for
the two centerpieces, will be re
quired. These 14-inch bolts will be
long enough to fasten two strips of

boards underneath sills to rest bot
tom boards on. Two boards (b), one
on each side, the whole length of the
rack, 1x10 inches, arc placed on top
of cross pieces. It will require 16
5x%-inch bolts to fasten boards. Put
these bolts down from top of boards
so as to have the surface smooth. Do
not put pins in top of boards; they
are dangerous. Many farmers hove
been severely injured by protruding
pins.
Make the back (e) 6 inches narrow
er than front of bolster. This will
be an advantage in turning. Bore 2
incli holes about 6 inches from each
end of sills and insert uprights be
fore putting rack together. This
should fold down nicely when neces
sary. These uprights may be wired
to cross pieces, for if not folded down
they may cause trouble. For going
to the field holes may be made in sin
gle upright (f) with a pin to secure
boom pole. Take a scantling 4x5
inches for bolster and secure it to
rack about 2 feet from front end of
the sills (g) with one-half by 12-inch
bolts. The 2x4-inch scantling placed
on the bolster behind this rack on a
low wagon will not interfere with
wheels. Use washers on all bolts; I
had my blacksmith drill five-eighth
ineh holes through strips of iron 10
inches long to put bolts through
boards on cross pieces. This will
keep boards down nicely. This rack,
properly made, will last a lifetime. Do
not forget to paint it and keep dry
when not in use.—Abram Stull, in

THE NATIONAL GRANGE
Condensed History of the Most Fo
nt oii* OrKnnizntion of Farmers
Ever Formed in America.
The grange is the oldest of the gen
eral organizations for farmers.
Though the notion of organizing the
farmers was undoubtedly broached in
the early history of the country, the
germ idea that actually grew into the
grange is about a third of a century
old, and should be credited to 0. H.
Kelley, a Boston young man who set
lied on » Minnesota farm in 1349. He
wrote considerably for the agricultural
press, and this experience helped to
bring him to the conclusion that the
great, need of agricult tire was the edu
cation of the agriculturalist. He soon
came to feel that existing agencies1 for
this purpose—farm papers and fairs—
were insufficient. As agent for the
lepartment of agriculture in 1866, Mr.
Kelley made a tour of the south with
a view to gaining a knowledge of the
agricultural and mineral resources of
that section. On his tour he became
impresesd with the fact that the poli
ticians would never restore peace to
the country; if “it comes at all, it must
come Ihrough fraternity.” As his
thought ripened, he broached to his
friends the idea of a “secret society of
agriculturalists, as. an element to re
store kindly feelings among the peo
ple.”
Thus was begun a movement for or
ganization that had resulted, by 1873,
in the, formation of 20,000 granges in
28 states, comprising not, less than
750.000 members; and in that year the
national grange, as a representative
body, was officially organized. For
four or five years this unexampled
prosperity comtinued; then the re
ports show a feeling of weakness
creeping in. In fact, the order as a
whole steadily declined in numbers
and prestige during the whole of the
decade following 1880, the losses lieing
moist serious in the south and west.
But in New England and the middle
states it retained its vitality, and, in
deed, grew steadily.
During the last, ten years there has
been a widespread revival of interest
in the organization, and the outlook is
exceedingly promising. Since 1890 the
membership has increased not less
than 75 per cent. New York at pres
ent. has 550 subordinate granges, with
43.000 members; Pennsylvania, 526
granges and 20,000 members; Maine,
275 granges, with 29,000 members; New
Hampshire, 260 granges and 24,000
members; Michigan, 420 granges and
nearly 25,000 members. These states
lead, but the order is also active and
strong in Vermont, Connecticut, Ohio
and Massachusetts. Thirty states pay
dues to the national grange treasury,
and 24 were represented by delegate!

COULDN’T WEAR SHOES.
Sumpter, 111., June 10.—Mrs. J. B.
Flanigan, of this place, had suffered
with Dropsy for fifteen years. She
was so very bad that for the last
three years, she has not been able to
wear her shoes. She had doctored all
the time, but was gradually getting
worse.
Last winter Mr. Flanigan, who was
very much discouraged, called for
some medicine at Mr. J. J. Dale’s drug
store in Carmi. Mr. Dale persuaded
him to have his wife t ry Dodd’s Kidney
Fills, and he bought six boxes. Ilis
wife used five out of the six, before
she was entirely cured. She is now as
sound and well as ever she was, com
pletely restored to health, and free
from any symptom whatever of
Dropsy.
To say that Mrs. Flanigan is pleased
at her wonderful deliverance, docs not
half express her feelings, and she
and Mr. Flanigan are loud in their
praises of Dodd’s Kidney Pills, and of
Mr. Dale for recommending this won
derful remedy to them.
The fact that Dodd’s Kidney Fills
cured Mrs. Flanigan of such a severe
case of Dropsy, after the doctors had
given her up, has made them the most
talked-of remedy ever known in White
County.
