A new service uniform has been
selected for the army, to be worn
in warm weather. It is of canvas,
and is said to be nearly impevious
to rain. The color Is a gray-brown
closely resembling the color of
dead grass and leaves. Leggings
are to be worn with the canvass
suits The colors of the cuff and
chevroi e will designate the branch
of the service. A light felt hat will
go with the uniform The new
suits will pro!ably not make so
pret'y a show on parade of the
o.d regulation colors, but they
were designed for business rather
than ornament.

Here is a story illustrating
what is a notable fact, that, as a
rule, men are always cool and
self-possessed on the gallows. A
murderer, while amending to the
dea h-trap, was offered a cigar by
a man in the crowd He accepted
it, when another man shouted;
"Don’t you want a match, pard
ner?”
‘“No thanks,'’ was the reply, as
the sheriff was adjusting the black
cap, “I’ll light it when I get
there 1”

It seems a«pity that at such a
beautiful season so disagreeable
a malady as the so-called
“spring fever” should unfit a
great many people to enjoy the
unaccustomed sunshine and
freshness that prevails. What is
I spring fever? It is that sluggish
ness and irritability which every
one takes a spring tonic 'for.
“Bad blood,’, some people call
it. A great deal of “blood medi
cine” is sold in the spring of the
year. The blood, the vigor, the
health must be’rehcwed with
the trees and flowers and grass.
The princial difficulty is, which
of the numerous spring tonics is
the best? Which will cure per
manently and remove quickly all
the disagreeable symptoms?
uead what Mrs. Adlin Adams,
Crafton, Ky., says of Pe-ru-na:
‘I was about to give up all hopes
when I concluded to* take Pe-ru
na. I believe it is the best med
icine in the world. I can't speak
too highly of it.”
A book containing several
hundred letters similar to the
one from which this is an ex
