Parana Cares Catarrh Wheram Located. % 'V Mis* Mattie L. Guild, of Chicago, 711. Miss Mattie L. Guild, President Illi nois Young People** Christian Temper ance Union, in a recent letter from Chi cago, Ill., says: “/ doubt it Peruna has a rival la all the remedies recommended to-day for catarrh of the system. A remedy that will cure catarrh of the stomach will cure the same condition of the mucous membrane anywhere. I have found It the best remedy / have ever tried for catarrh, and believing It worthy my endorsement I gladly accord It. ” Catarrh of the abdominal organs is very much moro common in summer than in winter time. This form of ca tarrh might bo appropriately classed as summer catarrh. Peruna will cure catarrh wherever located. In pelvic catarrh it has won woll deserved renown. Peruna will cure any case of diarrhoea, acute or chronic. Peruna is an absolute specifla for dysentery. Peruna cures catarrh o< the liver. Peruna cures catarrh of the stomach. Address The Peruna Medicine Co..Co lumbus, O., for a free book entitled “Summer Catarrh.” “What would you do if you had a million dollars?” said ono plain every day man. “Ob,” replied the other, “I suppose I’d put in most of my time comparing myself with some one who had a billion, and feeling discontented. Forewarned, Forearmed- The liability to disease is greatly lessened when the blood is in good con dition, and the circulation healthy and vigorous. For then all refuse matter is promptly carried out of the system ; otherwise it would rapidly accumulate — fermentation would take place, the blood become polluted and the consti tution so weakened that a simple malady might result seriously. A healthy, active circulation means good digestion and strong, healthy nerves. As a blood purifier and tonic S. S. S. has no equal. It is the safest and best remedy for old people and children because it contains no minerals, but is made exclusively of roots and herbs. No other remedy so thoroughly and effectually cleanses the blood of im- purities. At the same time it builds up the weak and de- bilitated, and reno- vates the entire sys tem. It cures permanently all manner of blood and skin troubles. Mr. E. E. Kelly, of Urbana, O.. writes: “I hod Eczema on my hands and face for five years. It would break out in little S hite pustules, crusts would form and •op off, leaving the skin red and inflam ed. The dootors did me no good. I used all the medicated soaps and salves without benefit. 8. 8. 8. cured me, and my skin is as clear and smooth os any one’s.” Mrs. Henry Siegfried, of Cape May. N. J. t says that twenty-one bottles of 8. 8. S. cured her of Cancer of the breast. Doc tors and friends thought her case hope less. Richard T. Gardner, Florence, *8. C., suffered for years with Boils. Two bot tles of 8. S. 8. put his blood in good con dition and the Boils disappeared. Send for our free book, and write our physicians about your case. Medical advice free. THE SWIFT SPECIFIC CO., ATLANTA, GA. FROM THE FAR WEST. No. 4. ' SAX FRANCISCO AND THE PACIFIC COAST. I From Sacramento we rolled through the great wheat fields. Here we counted thirty-two horses,four abreast, hitched to a harvester and driven by one man. The harvester cuts,threshes, weighs and sacks the wheat, and even ties the sacks. A few miles from ’Frisco the train runs out on a flat-boat which has four tracks and can carry twenty-four cars and four engines. This boat carried us across an arm of the bay, thence we rap down several miles to the South ern Pacific .carshed, where we ex changed our car for a ferry boat and crossed about five miles of the bay, landing in ’Frisco. San Francisco is on a narrow neck of land bounded on the west by the ocean, on the north by a strait which forms what is called the “Golden Gate” and connects the ocean on the we6t with the bay on the east. The climate of ’Frisco differs from all other places in the world. While a great part of California has an even climate, neither hot nor cold the year round, ’Frisco is damp, windy and chilly. The inhabitants wear heavy flannels and winter clothing the year round, and have almost constant need of the overcoat. The temperature is not really low, but is so damp and windy that it feels like January all the time. The city bus 860,00() inhabitants, and is the most important port on the coast. Here we saw the battleship Ohio, which President McKinley re cently christened. It is painted red and lying in the mud without its guns, unfinished on account of the strike in the Union Iron Works. The great transports that* arried the soldiers and supplies to Manila are also here. There are many places of interest about the city,and we remained nearly a week, visiting them. Sunset Park is a large park in the suburbs contain ing a thousand acres in which are an art gallery, a music hall, Japanese tea garden, conservatory containing thou sands of rare tropical plants and flowers, a zoological department with buffalo, deer, bears, etc., one grizzly bear weighing 1,100 pounds; and also an ornithological department with some rare specimens, among them the bird of Paradise. Sutro Garden is situated on a cliff overlooking Golden Gate and the Pacific, with Cliff House and Heal Rocks at its base. It is the prettiest garden I have ever seen, with its fountains and statues and paved walks and profusion of shrubbery and flow- Kodol Dyspepsia Cure Digests what you eat. This preparation contains all of the digestants and digests all kinds of food. It gives instant relief and never fails to cure. It allows you to cat all the food you want. The most sensitive stomachs can take it. By its use many thousands of dyspeptics have been cured after everything else failed. It is unequalled for all stomach troubles. It can’t help but do you good Prepared only by E. O. DeWitt&Co.. Chicago The il. bottle contuins2J5 times the 50c. size, E. BRADFORD. It is owned by a private family, but is open to the public. It costs many thousands of dollars annually to keep it up. It is too cold to bathe in the ocean or bay, but the famous Sutro baths are so arranged that the ocean water is brought within glass walls and heated any temperature the bather desires. The markets, Mark Hopkins Art Gallery and the Mint are worth visiting. The Great Kpworth League Conven tion was held in Mechanics’ Pavilion, a vast auditorium seating about 16,000 and having miserably poor acoustic properties. There were supposed to be about 51,000 delegates from the Southern states and several times this many from the other states. There were fine speeches from distinguished men from all the states of the union and domin ions of Canada. And such singing! Imagine 15,000 people singing, “How firm a foundation,” or “My Country ’tis of ohee,” or “Blest be the tie!” On Monday, July 22d, we ran down thirty-four miles to Palo Alto and stopped to visit the great Stanford University. The driveway is through beautiful groves of English walnuts, pines, oaks, palms, eucalyptus, etc. We went first to the stock farm, where there are about 1,600 thorough bred horses. I went into the stable and patted the neck of the beautiful and famous “Mont Belle,” whose fa ther was “Beautiful Belle.” Beautiful Belle was considered worth .$15,000,and when Mont Belle was two years old $20,000 was offered for him, but it was refused.'§ $60,000 would probably not buy him now. The Leland Stanford, Jr., University was founded in 1885 by Senator Stan ford and his wife, in honor of their son who died in ’8-1. The original endowment was 85,000 acres of land and money. Since Stanford’s death Mrs. Stanford has transferred proper ties; making the endowment about $85,000,000—probably the richest Uni versity in the world. Our next stop was San Jose, a beauti ful little city of 20,000 in the Sauta Clara Valley,surrounded by orchards of prunes, peaches, apricots and almonds —the land of sunshine, flowers and fruits, with an annual output of 100,- 000,000 pounds of dried fruit, 25,000,- | 000 pounds of canned fruit and 20,000,- 000 pounds of fresh fruit,—an ideal California valley. The great TJck Observatory is clearly in view on Mt. Hamilton. Here we took the narrow- gauge railroad for Santa Cruz. On tlie way we stopped at the Santa Cruz big trees. These are not by any means the largest in the state—the largest of these being a little less than 70 feet ircumference and 805 feet in height. One of these giants was hol low, and a score of us could walk about in it without being crowded. It re minded me of the California school boy’s composition. He said ^“Cali fornia is a great state and lias the largest trees in the world. One tree is 600 feet high and 1,000 in circumfer ence. It is hollow and so large that a man can stand straight up in it.” The largest tree in the world is near the Yosemite valley, and is said to be 40 feet in diameter. The stage coach drives through it. A pleasant stop was made at Pacific Grove and a visit to the Historic old town of Monterey, California’s first capital. It was settled by the Spanish in 1602. Father Junipero Serraplanted a mission here in 1770. The first brick bouse built in California, and the first custom house are here. The Hag-pole is still standing where Commodore Sloat raised the American Hag over the surrendered to\g.n in 1846. In 1818 California was ceded by Mexico to the United States, and admitted into the Union in 1850. In a quaint little house covered with a rose-bush dwells a wo man who says that General Sherman fell in love with her and planted this rose, promising to return anil claim her as his bride when the roses bloomed. The roses are blooming and she is still waiting. .Just a mile from Monterey is the fashionable hotel, Del Monte, built in the modern Gothic style. It has more than an hundred acres of the most beautiful grounds, towering {lines, graceful cypress, massive oaks and lovely palms, shading grasses of finest tints, acres of lawns with fountains and lakes, pebbled walks and flowers in gorgeous profusion. Ex-President Harrison and Chauncey Depew pro nounce it the most beautiful place on earth, and I believe it. It is as if the Lord had a little patch left over from making Paradise and dropped it down and called it Del Monte. Southern California next week. T. R. McCarty. Stood Death Off. E. B. Munday, a lawyer of Henrietta, Tex., once fooled a grave-digger. He says : “My brother was very low with malarial fever and jaundice. I per suaded him to try Electric Bitters, and he was soon ratnh better, but contin ued their use until he was wholly cured. I am sure Electric Bitters saved his life.” This remedy expels malaria, kills disease germs and purifies the blood; aids digestion, regulates the liver, kidneys and bowels, cures con stipation, dyspepsia, nervous diseases, kidney troubles, female complaints; gives perfect health.

The big charity ball, which season after season was such nil Important social and phil anthropic affair, drew forth some of her best efforts. Indeed, to her was accredited much of the success regular ly attained by that function. While a zealous worker In the club which lias bo signally honored her and with which she has closely allied herself for nearly 15 years, she has never entered Into Its political side. The office of the presidency, therefore, comes to her ns a distinct honor worthily bestowed. The ISvIIm «>f Tea Drinking. Lady Jeune has been taking up tho tea drinking question and has written with some warmth upon the habit of excessive tea drinking on the part of young women In domestic service, a habit which she believes to be Increas ing. “I have no hesitation In saying that It Is the constant drinking of strong tea which makes the women of our tolling masses delicate and their children anae mic, for not only do these latter inherit that weakness from their mothers, but become even greater sinners In tbls di rection than their parents. Nothing,” she continues, “has more serlouslj’ In jured the health of women of the work ing classes than the cheapening of tea.” The habit of drinking "stewed” tea Is In the highest degree deplorable, for It Is well known that It Is the tannin in tea which Is Injurious, aud this, nat urally Is extracted In u very strong de gree when the teapot is allowed to re main on the stove for an hour or more. Then, when cups of this obnoxious beverage are drunk promiscuously, sup posedly to refresh the tired system and give one a “fillip up”—then is the harm done. In reality one Is pouring so much poison Into the system aud utter ly destroying the nerves. Lady Jeune’s timely warning ought not to fall upon deaf ears. “In every well ordered household,” she says, “the quantity of tea per head is regulated, and If that amount were adhered to the mischief would be lessened.” There Is nothing like u rigid adherence to laws of limit in cases where there is a tendency to overrun judicious quantities. “Cocoa,” continues Lady Jeune, “is not only harmless, but nourishing and can always ho kept ready. The evil Is„ perhaps, even greater In the kitchen than In other departments of the house owing to the heat In which cooks uud scullery maids have to work.” Census Enumerator Clawson, who is also editor of “The Herald” at Howe, Ind. Ty.. writes : To Whom It May Concern I was a sufferer from stomach trouble until 1 was induced to try a bottle of Dr. Cald well’s Syrup Pepsin and I want to say that in my opinion it has no equal as a stomach remedy. 1 had triedj|many different remedies, but none with the happy results of Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin.
