LONDON —Under no circumstances
will Frau Tossell!, former frown Prln
cess of Haxony lie allowed to take up
her residence in the kingdom ruled by
her ex-husband. King Frederick, who
is said to be in love with his former
wife would probably make no objec
tion, but the Ministers of State a.s
well as the high tier/ are strongly
opposed.
Frau Tosselit is suing her husband
the pianist from whom she has lived
separated for some time, for an ahso
lute divorce on the grounds of an un
conquerable dislike of him arising out
of difference In age, and resulting dls
cordant views of life. The lady Hods
the educational Inferiority of the Ital
lari pianist, an absolute obstacle to fur
ther harmonious life together.
In the meantime Tossell Is still In
Florence, and steadfastly refuses to
be Interviewed. He has given up the
concert, platform, and makes a very
preeaurlous living u . a teacher.
it Is almost certain that the Held
trlberg court will deny the apllcatlon
for a divorce unless the former I'rln
cess proves a stronger reason than
difference In age and education.

RUSSIA IS NOT
ALWAYS_SO CRUEL
LONDON.—-fount. Tolstoy's great
Indictment of the Czar's government
has come almost as the parting shot
from the hand of that veteran fighter,
albeit the champion of peace. Count
Tolstoy’s appeal to the Husstan gov
■ eminent Is one of the most memo
-1 ruble of the many famous dominants
which lie has produced Ills Indict
ment of the government ami of the
Czar himself Is solemn and weighty.
I "You all, from the secretary of the
court to the premier and the Czar,
are Indirect participators In the lnlq
-1 nitles perpetrated every day," so runs
' the protest, but the pith of fount Tol
| stoy's argument lies In the fact that
liUHsla Is worHc than other nations,
| but that. Russia haw become as had
as other Htates. Till quite recently,
In- tells us. capital punishment In
Russia was not recognized by law.
"I remember how proud I used to he
of that, when talking to Western Ku
ropcans, but now, for the second and
third year, we havy- executions, execu
tions, executions unceasingly”
The methods (if revolutionaries are

I the methods of the Russian govern
ment, Wtfl.l he stands for are those
| fundamental principles of Christian.
; Ity which have never yel been en
forced by Htiy county or any govern
ment. There will yet come a time,
however, when the utterances of tills
great prophet crying In the wilder
ness will hi recognized as the true
basis of Christian government.

CRIMES GALORE
li FRENMPim
Place Being Insufficiently
Policed is the Cause.
PARIS.- The problem of how to
deal with tlic "apaches" is the uni
versa 1 topic of discussion today be
cause of the series of crimes commit
ted by them during the last twenty
lour hours. Of these crimes three
occurred in the Combat Quarters. A
merchant M. Marol was found mur
dered with a rubber doll at his feet
and besides there wero two other out
rages, two men named Danplelx
and Frollger and a woman named
Dejean being wounded by armed rob
bers.
In the ltois Do Vincennes n man
was found by a keeper who thought
he was asleep Ail examination show
ed that Ills skull was shattered. In
his pocket was found a limitary idon
(ideation book with the nnm t > of
Charles Delormes. The ambulance
surgeon who exnmlned the body as It
lay on the ground, stated his eonvle
Don that the may was attacked from
behind by two men who threw him
on his face, gagged him and killed
him with a large bloodstained rock
found nearby.
Another terrible crime is reported
from the suburbs of Antony whore
apaches breaking into a girl’s board
ing school murdered the principal and
severely wounded two teachers.
Mile. Brancard, who slept In the
same room as the principal? says that
soon after midnight she was aroused
by a loud scream from Mine. Larrlen.
A man had her by her throat and was
demanding fiercely to be told the coin
hlnatlon of the school snfe. Mmo.
Larrlen tried to scream again. There
was the sound of dull heavy blows, a
moan and then silence but for the
murderer’s rapid breathing.
Mile. Brancard rose am! screamed
for help, lint, was stretched to the
floor unconscious with a blow from
a Jimmy. Another teacher, Mile.
Bernes was roused and rushed into
the room only to b,, knocked down.
By this time every girl In the school
was awakened and screaming for
help. The murderer or murderers
lied.
A youth named Murray, suspected
of taking part in the crime hau been
arrested, lie ftred three sholH at the
detectives, fled Into h house am! was
only captured after an exciting chase
over Ihe roofs of three houses.
These crimes coupled with the re
viva I of highway robbery In the ltois
do Honglogne anil the activity of the
apnehcH lii all th ( . outlaying Ruliurbn
lias caused great uneasiness here. In
the highest quarters at the prefecture
of police, however, the opinion Is held
that there Is no special epidemic of
I crimes and that the slreots of Paris
I are safer than Ihcy wore some years
ago. M. Loplmo also says Unit, the
I police have completely cleaned many
districts which wore formerly the no
torious haunts of criminals, who have
largely taken refuge In the suburbs
on the north and east sides of Paris
which lie admits are Insufficiently
policed because lie has not men
enough to cover them.
He will therefore ask for five him
ilrod more policemen and with these
h,. promises to make I’arlH safer than
any other city In the world.

U.S. DISPENSATORY
Describes Ihe Principal Ingredients
Contained In Pe-ru-na.
Are we claiming toomuch for Perttos
when we claim it to be an effective
remedy for chronic catarrh? Have we
abundant proof that Peruna is in real
ity such a catarrh remedy? Let us see
what the United States Dispensatory
says of the principal ingredients of
Peruna.
Take, for instanoe, the ingredient
hydrastis canadensis, or golden seal.
The United States Dispensatory says
of this herbal remedy, that it is largely
employed in the treatment of depraved
muoons membranes, chronio rhinitis
(nasal catarrhl, atonio dyspepsia (ca
tarrh of the stomach), chronio intesti
nal catarrh, catarrhal jaundiee (ca
tarrh of the liver), and in diseased
mucous membranes of the pelvio
organs It is also recommended for
the treatment, of various forms of dis
eases peculiar to women.
Another ingredient of Pernna, cory
dalis formosa, is classed in the United
States Dispensatory as a tonic. So also
is cubeb» classed as a stomachic and as
a tonic for the muoous membranes.
Cedron seeds is another Ingredient of
Peruna, an excellent drug that has
been very largely overlooked by tha
medical profession for tho past fifty
years. The seeds are to be found in
very few drug stores. The United
States Dispensatory says of the action
of cedron that it is used as a bitter
tonic and in the treatment of dysen
tery, and in intermittent diseases as a
substitute for quinine.
Oil of copaiba, another ingredient
of Peruna, it classed by the United
States Dispensatory as a mild stimu
lant and diuretio. It acts on the stom
ach and intestinal tract. It acts as a
stimulant on the genito-nrinary mem
branes Use fill in chronic cystitis,
ahronic dysentery and diarrhea, aad
some chronic diseases of the liver and
kidneys.
Send to us for a free book of testi
monials of what the people think of
Peruna as a catarrh remedy. The best
evidence is the testimony of those who
have tried it.
