It may be that the nose and • ! throat is the oftenest affected by ca- v tarrh, but if this is so it is so only . J ; because these parts are more exposed •#$£|to the vicissitudes of the climate than V.V^tke other parts of the body. / •€•' •, Every organ, every duct, every cavity the human body is liable to catarrh. $4 ± multitude of ailments depend on ca- ; tarrh. This is true winter and sum- mer. Catarrh causes many cases of 1 chronic disease, where the victim has sot the slightest suspicion that catarrh : t- baa anything to do with It. The following letter which gives the experience of Mr. A. C. Lockhart is a case in point: Mr. A. C. Lockhart, West Henrietta, N. T., Box 58, in a letter written to Dr. Hartman says the following of Peruna: "About fifteen years ago I com­ menced to be ailing, and consulted a physician. He pronounced my trouble a species of dyspepsia, and advised me, after he had treated me about six months, to get a leave of absence from my business and go into the country. I did so and got temporary relief. I went back to work again, but was CONGRESSMAN HOWARD OF ALABAMA distressing taken with very my stomach. "I seldom had a passage of the bow­ els naturally. I consulted another physician with no better results. The disease kept growing on me, until I had exhausted the ability of sixteen of Kochester's best physicians. The last physician advised me to give up my work and go south, after he had treat­ ed me for one year. "I was given a thorough examination with the X-ray. They could not even determine what my trouble was. Some of your testimonials in the Rochester papers seemed to me worthy of con­ sideration, and I made up my mind to try a bottle of Peruna. Before the bottle was half gone I noticed a change for the better. I am now on the fifth bottle, and have not an ache or pain anywnere. My bowels move regularly every day, and I have taken on eight­ een pounds of flesh. I have recom­ mended Peruna to a great many and they recommend it very highly, have told several people that If they would take a bottle of Peruna, and could then candidly say that it had not benefited them, I would pay for the medlcinc."--A. C. Lockhart. Mr. W. P. Peterson, of Morris, I1L, says: "I was nearly dead with catarrhal dyspepsia and am now a well man, bet­ ter, in fact, than I have been for twen­ ty years or more. "Since I got cured by your Peruna i have been consulted by a great many people." If you do not derive prompt and sat­ isfactory results from the use of Pe­ runa, write at once to Dr. Hartman, giving a full statement of your case, and he will be pleased to give yon his valuable advice gratis.

T'1' i * A .Jt. .•* . ...i railroad aceidents at crossings grade has taIIa»%*S» *ar ssat, thdtigh the vol­ ume ratlroadtraVel in the United Btates has Uurgely increased and the apsafeftr ©f* tral&s is amefc greater. This decrease Is due largely to the l^iatatimi, in which New York was the pioneer, for the abolition of ail grafts crossing*, says the New York Sun. The Anti-Grade Crossing law of New York, adopted in 1897, provided that stesm surface roads thereafter hull! must he constructed to avoid all at grade. New streets, av- or highways, when carried across the tracks of existing steam roads, must be either above or below grade, and the extra cost of such con­ struction is to be paid half by the moaicipality and half by the road eraassd. Where existing crossings are changed upon the application of the municipal authorities or of a railroad company the expenss of such change Is to be paid as follows: One-half by the railroad company, one-quarter by the state and one-quarter by the municipal authorities. All street surface rail­ roads hereafter constructed in New Tork across a steam railroad shall be either above or below its grade. The legislature is authorized to appropri­ ate not less than 1100,000 HT»nnally to defray the state's share of the expense imposed by Compliance with this stat­ ute. Massachusetts, in which the population outside of the large cities Is more dense than in New York, ap­ propriates 1600,000 a year for the elimi­ nation of grade crossings and has al- n^drexpended 12,500,000 for this pur- pos^^m^jtfce railroad companies in Massachusetts, (largely owned in New York) have paid 15,000,000 for the same purpose. Under a law passed by the Tennessee legislature in 1889, the rail­ roads are obliged to grade road erase* lngs to the level of the rails, and to keep them in repair for ten feet on each side of the track. The Connecti­ cut legislature adopted a similar meas­ ure and it has been strictly enforced 111 that state. Nearly every western state and some southern and Pacific statea have followed New York's lead in gradually doing away, where prac­ ticable, with the old fashioned method of laying railroad tracks on the same level aa the intersecting wagon and carriage roads. There are few roads in the country on which there has not been in recent years some effort to re­ duce the number of grade crossings. *: '" ' - ^ A TRANSFORMATION. > '•UsSsttaei ZMsappearaaee of a Dee* teem Baek Porch. Joaxes would like to meet the that did it, says the Detroit Free Press. He says that if the party who took the deer will disclose his identity he may keep the animal for his trou­ ble. But • it is not likely the guilty wretch will come forward, as he dis­ likes to attract attention. Jonee re­ turned from northern Michigan, where he had been on a hunting trip. He claims that he shot a deer while he was there, and brought ,'t home with him. At any rate, he li^d one with him when he got back. .'This much the neighbors are willing to testify to, as he was careful to hang the deer on the back porch, where the whole neighborhood could not help Beeing it One neighbor has been unkind enough to insinuate that one of its legs was broken and that there were other in­ dications to prove that the deer had been caught in a trap and clubbed to death. Unfortunately this point must always remain in doubt unless the guilty person comes forward and adds his testimony regarding the facts in the case. Jones, after seeing that th deer was hung where the neighboi could see it went downtown, collected a party of friends and lured them up to the house by promising them some of the venison. On their way there they were vastly entertained by his vivid account of how he killed the deer by making a shot that was next to impossible. He took them around to the rear of the house, only to find that some one had not only removed the deer, but had substituted a dead calf in its place. It is hard to tell which makes Jones the maddest, the loss of the deer or the doubt his friends ex­ press whether he really did kill a deer, as he says. Sewlwo'i Soavealr c«at> < Abraham Jefferson, a negro, eras held to the grand Jury recently on a charge of larceny, says the Kansas City Journal. The namesake of Abraham and Jefferson is charged with having stolen from Fred Harvey, the railway restaurant man, a curiously made buckskin coat which was formerly a possession of the bloodthirsty Apache chief, Geronlmo. The coat, which was exhibited in court, is an Interesting specimen of Indian handiwork, and • striking commentary on the character of old Geronimo. It is festooned with forty or fifty long tufts of hair, which are believed to have been taken from the heads of the many white women whom the old chief had killed. Ger­ onimo must have had a particular dis­ like for women with dark brown hair, or a penchant for that kind of decora­ tion for his coat for, with one excep­ tion, all the hair is of that color. The exception is a very light brown, which might at one time have been red. All the hair is long. It is attached in hit- or-mlss fsshion to all parts of the coat's exterior, and hangs down the back so thick as to almost conceal the highly colored painted figures which constitute the rest of its ornamenta­ tion. As a carlo the coat was worth about Mrs. C. is one of those ladles who are rarely out of communi­ cation with the servants' registry of­ fice, says London Tit-Bits. Tradesmen and others who frequently call at her house are met at the door by a perpetu­ ally changing staff of domestics. On one occasion when a ring was heard, for some reason or other Mrs. C. her­ self went down, and, opening the door, found outside the milk boy with the afternoon's dole of milk. Seeing her he leaned against the doorway and gave vent to a prolonged whistle. Then, imagine her feelings when he addressed her thus: "What, another fresh 'an? You will not stay h«re I lay.
