Another trick of the makers'of spurious
solid cold watch cues la to vtamp the case
“U. 8. Assay." The United States does
not stamp any article made ont of cold and

this stamp, wants to make the public be
lieve that the Government had something
to do wfy)i tht stamping or guaranteeing
the fineness of watch cases.
Another trick of the wateh fakir is to
advertise a Watch described as a solid gold
filled wateh with a twenty or twenty-five-
year guarantee. These watches are gener
ally eent .C. 0. D., and If the purchaser haa
paid for the wateh he finds that the com
pany which-guaranteed the wateh to wear
is not in existence.

posing these frauds, will furnish the names

Tike K nil In all, the men who ride

to make a fast run down the country.

“Arriving at our destination,” said
the conductor who had charge of the
train, “the engineer found awaiting
him a telegram from tha general su
perintendent qf (he road, who paid
him tbs highest compliment that an
official could extend to an employee.
The man read the telegram and
shoved It Into the pocket of his blouse
without a change of countenance. No
one, from looking under the peak of
his cap, could tell what sort of a feel

A fast runner, being approached by
an outsider who wants to know some

goee about his puffing steed, feeling

It Is ten to one that the other man

Few engineers who have-been found
out of fast runners will make any
comparisons of any kind of their runs
with those of other engineers. There
Is one thing, however, about which ah
engineer of this class Is "touchy.”

T HE season of catching cold is upon us.
The cough and the sneeze and nasal
twang are to be heard on every band. The
origin of chronic catarrh, the meet com
mon and dreadful of diseases, is a cold.
This is the way the chronic catarrh gen
erally begins. A person catches cold, which
hangs ou longer than usual. The cold
generally starts in the head, and throat.
Then follows sensitiveness of the sir pas
sages which incline one to ckteh cold very
easily. At last tha person has a cold all
the while seemingly, more or lees discharge

clearing of the throat, nostrils stopped up.
full feeling in the,head and sore, inflamed
throat.
The best timo to treat catarrh is at the
very beginning. A bottle of Pcruna prop
erly used never fails to cure a common
cold, thus preventing chronic catarrh.
While many people have been cured of
chronic catarrh by a single bottle of Pa
rana, yet, as a rale, when the catarrh be-
cornea thoroughly fixed, more than one bot
tle is necessary to complete a cure. Pa
rana haa cured cases innumerable of ca
tarrh of twenty yean' standing. It ia the
beet, if not the only internal remedy for
chronic catarrh in existence.
But prevention is far better than cure.
Every person subject to catching cold
should taka Pcruna at once at the slight

season of tho year and thus prevent what
