“I hay. been troubled with catarrh
lor nearly twenty-five years and have
tried many cores (or It, bnt obtained
very little help.
“Then my brother advised me to try
Peruna, and I did.
“My health was very poor at the time
I began taking Peruna. My throat was
y.ry *ore and I had a bad cough.
"Peruna has cured me. The chronic
catarrh Is gone and my health Is very
much Improved.
“I recommend Peruna to all my
friend* who are troubled as I was.”
PERUNA TABLETS: -Some people pre
fer tablet*, rather than medicine in a
fluid form. Snob people can obtain Peru

equals one average dose of Peruna.

Do not keep yijur politeness to

"The boy is father of the man”
in more ways than one. The boy
who is willing to do faithful la

for little more than his board and

position of usefulness and better
pay in the future. It is the boy
who attends strictly to business

mark as a business man. An in

Short Road to Misery,
Begin by fancying that no one
cares for you; that you are not
of any us* to anybody—a sort of
nonentity in the household, where
vour place would not be missed,
but easily supplied. Reflect on
your want of beauty, and lead
yourself to believe that no one
can love a plain face, or think
you agreeable because there are
others more charming. Fancy
that every one who looks upon
you makes a mental comparison
which militates against you in
faver of some one else. Imagine
that every word said in jest is
only meant to cover a deeper and
more painful meaning—that ev
ery article of wearing apparel
you don is criticised and ridicul
ed. Do all this and your ten
dency'to morbidity of feeling
will so increase that in a very
short time yon will become one
of the most miserable of human
beings.
Answering Children’s Questions.
Anyone who has the ability to
ask a question that to him is
worth asking, has the capacity to
receive an answer that to him is
worth receiving. A thoughtful
child, on iuquiring the location
of Heaven, was told by his moth
er that he could not understand
her, even if she' explained it.
She was probably right in eo far
as the child’s ability to under
stand her was concerned; but she
was wrong m not telling him
that the fault was with herself
and not with him.' Had she
known as much about answering
him as he knew about question
ing her, there need have been no
trouble about his understanding
her explanation. There is no
question that a child can serious
ly and fairly ask that cauuot be
as seriously and fairly answered.
To tell a child or to lead it to in
fer that it is "too little” to konw
anything more on any subject
about which it already knows
enough to frame a question, is to
deny its capacity for further
growth. It is to thrust the child’s
mind into a dungeon, instead of
bpenirg it to the light. It is to
blind it in fetters, instead of giv
ing it freedom of action. Ability
to ask, presupposes capacity to
receive. And no questions are
better worth answering or worth
better answers than a child’s.
Who does not dread the visitor
who starts, then thinke of some
thing else to say; rises, and then
thinks of another subject of con
versation ; nearly reaches the
door, and, most probably holding
it open, is aronsed to a degree of
mental brilliancy that threatens
his health and that of his host
or hostess by long detaining of
both in a cold draft while he dis
courses? What a tax on the pa
tience and politeness of the list
ener, who vainly strives, by as
senting instantly to every Depo
sition to end the interview and
break the restraining bond of po
lite attention.
The Road to Success.
The world is wide. If yon wish
lobe somebody, "pitchin.” The
brave always have friends.
Where others have gone you cau
go. If the old track don’t suit
you, make a new one; somebody
will Walk in it. Don’t hurry too
fast, especially till yon know the
road or become acquainted with
your team. Mind your own busi
ness and loox after it yourself.
Don’t stop to club whiflitB or to
retail gossip. You may grow
weary, but remember this is not
a world of ease, and rest lies be
yond. Success is never obtained
in a country like this without ef
fort. If you fail once, tfy again.
If you fall down, get up. If it is
dark strike a light. If you are
m the shade, move around; If
there is shade on one side there
is sure to be sunshine on the oth
er. It takes longer to skin an
elephant than a mouse, but then
the skin is worth something.
Never be content with doing
what another has done—exeel
him. A trade is a good thing to
have; it is better than gold—
brings a larger premium. But to
make apremium, the trade must
be perfect—-no silver plated af
fair. Determine in yonr mind
to be a good workman, or let the
job ont. Learning a trade is dif
ferent from eating mush and
milk—mechanical education does
not slip down without chewing.
Never slight yonr work, never,
Every job you do is a sign. Poor
signs are against success. Peo
pie always speak well of a boy
who minds his own business and
who seems to be disposed to be
somebody in time. This is a
queer wprld; many people are
watching us, andhelp often comes
when and from whom we least
expect. Confidence is the safe
in which men often deposit rich
treasures, and as yon prove
worthy so will yonr reward of
success be. There is a reward in
success, which none but those
who strive can enjoy. Deserve
success and it will come.
A MISPLACED SWITCH. '
Which Explained Why th* Minister
Didn't Touch th* Salad.
Heedless of tho fact that it was
Sunday evening and that tho larder
might be, and iu fact was expected
to be, rather low, Deacon Black had
invited tho minister to supper. Mrs.
Black, mindful of tho fact that a
small salnd wns all that could be
placed on tho board, was horrified
at her husband’s invitation, but
^vitli truo hospitality attempted to
make thy best of tho situation.
Leading from tho parlor to the
dining room is a passage, dark and
so narrow that but one cau pass in
comfort at a timo. With a woman’s
quick wit, Mrs. Black, who had
como into tho parlor after laying
what she could find on tho table, de
termined to uso a variation of tho
“family holdback” that so often
plays a part when tho unexpected
guest lias come. Following her
husband into tho passago on the
way to tho tablo, sho clutched an
arm and, pulling down his head,
whispered vehemently: ,
“Don’t touch that salad, for good
ness’ sake 1”
“All right,” ho answered in n sim
ilar whisper. Then tho party pro
ceeded to tho table.
‘I am- very sorry, Mrs. Black,”
exclaimed tho minister as the party
soatod themselves, “but I feel a lit
tle indisposed from tho heat today,
and I think I will have only a cup
of tea.”
‘Why, that’s too bad!” the wife
remarked. “I did want you to have
a good iRppcr.”
“You didn’t suy anything to mo
about fooling ill,” put in Deacon
Black, who despite tne warning had
helped himself to a largo portion of
the main dish. “If I had known
that I wouldn’t have pressed you to
come.”
Tho clergyman passed tho situa
tion off with some light remark and
after"* suitable period took his de
parture.
“Well, John,” said Mrs. Black,
“I’m glad for your sako that the
doctor couldn’t cat much, for thcro
was so little, and I know how fond
you arc of salad.”
“Yea,” said her husband, “but
there would have been enough to
go around, I guess. I can’t under
stand why tho doctor accepted my
invitation if he was ill.”
“Anyway,” she answered, “I’m
glad I caught you in the passage
and warned you about the salad.”
“Passage! Salad! What are you
talking about?” ho exclaimed.
“John Black, didn’t I speak to
you in tho passage?” his wifo al
most screamed.
“Why, no. Tho doctor let mo go
ahead of him after wo started!”
cried Block. “What did you say ?”
Thread and Needl* Tree*.
Did you ever hour of the thread
and needlo tree? Bather a handy
tree to have in the garden, don’t
you think, especially when there are
boys in the house, with buttons con
tinually corning off their clothes?
This strango tree grows in nearly
all tropical countries. At tho tip of
the leaf there is a sharp thorn,
which is tho needle. If you grasp
it firmly and pull it out a long
thread of fiber comes with it, and
there you are—with a needle al
ready threaded for your sewing. The
fiber thread is very strong, and the
Mexicans use it for weaving a
coarse kind of cloth as well as for
sewing. The leaves of the tree they
use for roofing their houses instead
of tiles, and a fine roof they make
with them, strong and waterproof
—just the sort of roof that is need
ed in a country where the rain pours
down in sheets.
Saved Hi* Mol*****.
A traveler came along to the gate
of a humble cabin in a town in Al
abama just as an old negro handed
a couple of jugs to his son, who was
about ten years of age, and said,
“Now, Julius, yo’ gwan down to do
S scery an’ git A quart o’ treaola in
• ob dem jogs an’ hurry back.”
When the boy had gone the traveler
said to the father:
“You didn’t tell him to get any
thing in the other jug. Is he going
to leave it at the grocery?"
‘‘No, sah; gwan to bring it right
back home,” he replied.
“But why send two jugs to get a
quart of treacle V’
“It’s jes’ dis way, Bah: If he has
a jug in each hand, he can’t go dip-

We do not care to continue to worry our
friends, those of them who are keeping gold hid
away at their homes. We do desflc to to tell them
about one feature of this habit of concealing gold
about the house, that they perhaps do not know
about, and to warn them ot the consequence*.
There is a probability of your house burning down.
A great many people think if the house burns down
on their bag of gold that they can sift the ashes
and get it again, and that the United States gov
ernment will make it good to them.
There was never a greater mistake good frieud.
If you have gold or silver hid about your house
and the house burns down you may dig around in
the ashes and finally get every piece of your mon
ey, but it will be almost absolutely worthless. If
it is not too badly melted and stuck together the
United/States government will allow you 15 or 20
cents on the dollar. The reason we know this to
be true we have recently seen it tried. A party
brought in $12.50 in dollars, halves and quarters
that had been picked from the ashes of a building
that had burned. The house^as a small two room
house. The coins were disfigured and some of
them stuck together. We sent them to Washing
ton and got back in return the sum of $4.00 and
some odd cents. In the letter of advice from the
government at Washington we were advised that
the same rule applies to gold coin burned in a fire.
Under these circumstances friends, we say it
plainly but kindly, it is foolishness, absolute fool
ishness to keep gold or silver about your homes,
or paper money as to that matter, when you can
deposit it in the Bank of Dallas and draw s l A% on
it, and get it any time you may need it.
