SISTERS OF CHARITY ' ' # - ' 4 V- ' ' \ *' 1 • Use Pe-ru-nafor Coughs, Colds, Grip and Catarrh-A Congressman’s Letter.

In every country of the civilized world Bisters of Charity are known. Not only do they minister to the spiritual and intellectual needs of the charges committed to their care, but they also minister to their bodily needs. With so many children to take care of and to protect from climate and disease, these wise and prudential Sisters have found Peruna a never failing safeguard. Dr. Hartman receives many letters from Catholic Sisters from all over the United States. A recommend recently received from a Catholic institution In Detroit, Mich., reads as follows: Dr. S. B. Hartman, Columbus, Ohio: Dear Sin —" The young girl who used the Peruna was suffering from laryngitis, and loss of voice. The result of the treatment was most satisfactory. She found great relief, and after further use of the medicine we hope to be able to say she Is entirety cured. " —Sisters of Charity. The young girl ‘was under the care of the Sisters of Charity and used Peruna for catarrh of the throat with good results ns the above letter testifies. Send to The Peruna Medicine Co., Columbus, Ohio, for a free book written by Dr. Hartman.

The Doctor’s Opinion.

“Now, there was my uncle, the late John G. Fullenwider,” said HI Spry, apropos of nothing In particular. “He had the whooping-cough at the age of 4 years, and again when he was 92, which was, I am san-gwine, a rather unusual record. I wasn’t present the first time, but I was 'round about on the second occasion. It wasn’t especially serious—he didn’t whoop loud enough to be heard very far—but they called In the doctor. He gave the old man something to sort of ease him up, and then left I beaded him off at the gate, and asked him what he thought

Doc, you know, while he's as tender as an old Mother In Israel with his patients, has the name of having very little time for sympathizing friends, and he says: “ ‘Well, if you want my honest opinion, I sort of think it is a long time between whoops!’ “And with that he shut the gate, and poked off down to Ike Gapp’a, where there’s always a bushel of babies, and sickness all times of the moon, and where he’ll never get a cent in the living world; and is perfectly aware of it.”—Woman’s Home Companion.

CURRENT COMMENY

Mora Hallway Horrors. The railway accident that took place near Connellsville, Pa., Wednesday night, bringing death in a most hideous form to more than sixty passengers, and the accident Saturday evening near Grand Rapids, Mich., which caused the death of twenty-two passengers, give frightful confirmation of the interstate commerce commission’s conclusions regarding the shocking mortality from American railuufr casualties. The commission has declared the annual record of killed and maimed to be a ‘‘disgrace to the American people,” and no one can read of these latest disasters without feeling that the characterization is justified. Even If it were true that under present methods of railroading such catastrophes could not be foreseen or prevented, what should be said of the system or lack of system which fails to provide for such prevention? Is the science of railway management still so primitive that collisions cannot be guarded against? It is the business of railways to transport passengers safely and it is the prime requisite of that business that they supply every conceivable precaution necessary to prevent killing people. Accidents cannot be ex’plained away. It is the fact that they occur and not the reason for their occurring that constitutes proof of inefficiency. If they are not due to gross negligence that fact only emphasizes the innate and essential faultiness of the system. The railroads must stop this slaughter of their passengers and it is the duty of Congress, of the State Legislatures and of the courts to compel them to stop it.—Chicago News. Within four days fully one hundred persons were killed in the United States in railroad accidents and as many were seriously injured. Two of these accidents —that on the Baltimore and Ohio, near Pittsburg, and that on the Pere Marquette near Grand Rapids—have cost ninety lives, and the list may yet be increased. Both of these accidents might have been avoided if safety of passengers and trainmen had not been sacrificed to desire to “make time.” While the Baltimore and Ohio wreck was due immediately to timbers which had fallen from a freight preceding the passenger train, the real cause was an effort to make up for lost time. And although the immediate cause of the Pere Marquette collision is given as the blowing out of the red signal light at McCord, the real cause seems to have been an attempt to Bare time. —Chicago Post. .« - -•. When life depends upon so uncertain a thing as the burning of a light in the face of a blizzard, it is evident that reforms must be instituted in the operation of railroads. The case of the Pere Marquette road is but one of a score this year—one of many horrors which would have been averted had the block system been installed, a system under which but one-seventh of the railroad mileage in the country is now being operated. In every body of men some incompetents are found. Even the most efficient men occasionally make blunders or are guilty of errors of judgment. In the case of railroad men, errors may mean many deaths. Congress should pass a law compelling railroads to install the block system and take other precautions. Possibly it would be wise to have a track patrol in addition to the block system. At any rate, the traveling public must be better protected. —Chicago Journal.

WAR SEEMS INEVITABLE.

Diplomats Expect Battles to Be Ka#r i*E Soon in tba Orient. That war between Russia and Japan it almost inevitable Is the opinion of diplomats who are informed of the latest entanglements. Official communications from high sources say that the Japanese war party is growing in strength and is bringing all its influence to bear on the government. Influential officials continue in their determination to keep China neutral, if possible, in the event of war, but in this connection it is noted that the Chinese board of war has ordered the Ticeroys to furnish full information as to the number of foreign-trained troops available for active service. The Russian government is noting with the closest attention and keenest interest the quite uncommon energy now being shown by the Chinese in making warlike preparations, under the guidance of a large number of Japanese instructors, cables the New York Herald’s St. Petersburg correspondent. This has grown so serious as to come into the first line of Russia’s calculations, broadening out the situation on quite new lines. Such a complication would bring into play the Franco-Russian and Anglo-Japanese treaties. It is announced here, says a dispatch from Buenos Ayres, that the Argentine men of war Moreno and Rivadavia, built at the Ansaldos yards, in Italy, have been recently sold by the mediation of the English firm of Antony Gibbs & Co., for $71>00,000, but the government does not say which nation is the real purchaser. The Cudahy Packing Company of South Omaha is jnst in receipt of a rush order for 1,000,000 pounds of extract messmeat for the Russian government The shipment must be made from South Omaha so as to reach San Francisco before Jan. 26. On that date two Russian ships will be prepared to sail from that port with the beef. It is learned in Omaha that the ships will also carry a large amount of other supplies, which are now on the way or are in preparation for shipment from various parts of the United States. All of these supplies, it is said, are for the War Department of Russia.

OLD TRAIL TO BE MARKED.

Boat* Over Which Pioneers Beached the Southwest Will Have Gnldepoeta. One of the moat famous routes traversed by the early settlers of the Southwest was known as the Santa Vo trail. This has been almost wholly obliterated of late years, bat the Kansas Daughters of the Revolution propose that It shall be marked for the benefit of future generations. They are now seeking to mark It through the State by stone monuments. It will not matter how simplo the monuments may he, they are to be representative of the entire State of Kansas. In their work they propose to Interest the school children of the various counties through which the trail rung. These children will erect the monuments and will be aided In their work by the children of other counties. Mrs. W. E. Stanley, wife of ex-Gov-ernor Stanley, explained the work In a short talk before the meeting of the Elizabeth Benton chapter held at the home of Mrs. Daniel Boone. “It has always been the plan of the Kansas Daughters to carry on as much-Jocal work as possible,” said Mrs. Stanley. “We have marked the spot where the first man to enter Kansas stood, and now we Intend to mark the old Santa Fe trail. We are trying to Interest the school children throughout the State In this, and especially the children of the counties through which the trail passes. We will make this our work for the coming year, and at the end of that time we hope to have marked the entire length of the historic old road in our State."

I had trouble with my kidneys, and two doctors tola me I had Bright’s disease: also had falling of the womb, and could not walk a block at a time. My back and head ached all the time, and I was so nervous I could not sleep; had hysteria and fainting spells, was tired all the time, had such a pain in my left side that I could hardly stand at times without putting my foot on something. “ I doctored with several good doctors, but they did not help me any. I took, in aIL twelve bottles of Lydia E.
