WALKERTON INDEPENDENT W. A. ENDLEY, Publisher WALKERTON, - INDIANA The navy is always over the fire. At home it is roasted and abroad it is toasted. You have probably noticed that an heiress never finds it necessary to take advantage of the leap year privilege. A rich man can no doubt get to heaven, but will it be heaven when he gets there and realizes that he is flat broke? But nobody can make those foreign automobilists believe that the Panama canal is half as bad as the ordinary American roads. London and New York are planning rush-hour street cars solely for workingwomen—and the girls will not mess them all up with tobacco, either. Ten thousand dollars for the extermination of mosquitoes seems a lot of money, but if the little pests are really exterminated it will be worth it. If people were as ready to overlook a minister’s shortcomings as they are to overlook the plate as it goes by, there would be fewer church rows. They have found a plesiosaurus in Chili. This is in pleasing contrast with a great many other things which are being fouid just now in divers places. Nowadays when a prominent man gets into the papers it. is an even chance whether it is because he is honored by his country or indicted by a grand jury. A Mexican judge is reported to have sentenced a woman to “six months’ silence.” Tne assertion- that Mexicans are cruel by nature seems to have some foundation. A Kansas City centenarian says that he did not take up smoking until he was 96. He wisely avoided the chances of acquiring a bad habit until he had reached the age of discretion. A Duluth man has jumped 116 feet on skis. The time may come when it will be necessary to depict Mercury with skis instead of wings on his feet in order to make him impressive. * A Chicago physician argues that we should all take at least 20 minutes to wake up in the morning. Fathers and mothers can furnish the names of children who take longer than that. King Menelik of Abyssinia wants $600,000 to relinquish a strip of territory he has seized upon. Contact with civilization is teaching the untutored child of nature the most profitable ways of doing things. A Massachusetts hen recently laid an egg containing a quarter. Evidently the recent financial stringency has induced the hens of the country to turn their attention from the political prophecy line to the money market. Non-secret clubs, to which all the students are eligible, have been proi -- ChiaaMtaJL^a^mhaHHitofor the secret 11' ate rii 111 os schools. If the pupils have time for such distractions, the open club is immeasurably superior to the secret organization. How many young ladies who received valentines this year regarded them seriously? Lovers have outgrown the bashfulness of those of a few generations ago, and now express their sentiments more directly, even if in a less poetic manner; and the sending of valentines is chiefly an amusement for children to-day. A bachelor aged 93 years has just died in Indiana, leaving the parting advice to his sex that they “don’t live a batch as I did live.” However, the bachelor who is determined upon a course of single blessedness will use the longevity as an argument that the aforesaid blessedness is rather conducive to good health and strength. Count Boni de Castellane is said to have so much respect for his former I wife that he does not want any other j man to marry her. It would seem | more natural if he claimed to have so ■ much love for his former wife’s Amer- [ ican dollars that it makes him indignant whenever he thinks of her second marriage, which would effectually cut him off from a chance of ever regaining control of them. How general has become the im- : pulse to alleviate the sufferings of animals is shown by two recent occurrences in Boston. In one case a crowd of several hundred persons watched for two hours the struggles of a pigeon to free itself from a string which had become wound round its leg and held it suspended from a cornice. ’Many of the watchers tried to holp, and all of them cheered heartily when the bird succeeded in freeing itself. In the other case a sergeant of police and a patrolman worked hard for 15 minutes to rescue a cat from a sewer. A California court has decided in a suit for damages that the rights of a pedestrian on public highways are paramount, and that a man run down by an automobile cannot be accused of contributory negligence in not keeping a sharp lookout, as it is the duty of the autoist to keep that lookout. This is very different from the verdict of a coroner's jury here, says the Baltimore American, that the victim of a similar accident was guilty of criminal negligence in not leaving the street clear for a speeding automobile. One of the bills before congress is described as being so simple that “almost any one can understand it.” If that is so. we are willing to bet it never becomes a law. It cost a Chicago man $36,000 to hug another man's wife and sit on the sofa with her. That was a costly souvenit “spoon 1" If the proposition to have all liars disfranchised were adopted it would take much less time to ct'-nt the votes.

MAY RELATE THAW ORGIES ESCAPADES OF WHITE’S SLAYER UNEARTHED BY EVELYN. Will Be Unfolded If Family Persists in Fighting Satisfactory Settlement. New York. — Astounding revelations of orgies attributed to Harry K. Thaw, now at. Matteawan insane asylum may be uncovered by Evelyn Nesbit Thaw, who is seeking a divorce from her husband on grounds of insanity. Strangest of all the disclosures made since Evelyn began suit in New York for the annulment of her marriage to Thaw is the declaration that within a month after her wedding she discovered that he was insane. At that time she announced her intention of applying for a divorce on the ground that he was crazy before the ceremony and that all members of the Thaw family knew it when they allowed her to wed him. Evelyn, of course, knew nothing about these escapades at the time, but immediately after her marriage Thaw now and then dropped a remark that opened her eyes. She concluded that no man in his right mind could think of such affairs, much less actually participate in them; hence, her conclusion that Harry was insane. Matteawan. N. Y. — Papers In the suit of Evelyn Nesbit Thaw for the annulment of her marriage with Harry K. Thaw was served upon I haw at the insane asylum Thursday night. At the same time a copy of the summons and complaint was delivered I to Superintendent Lamb of the asy- i him, who is the legal guardian of the I defendant.

DRAMA IN LONELY INN. Would-Be Murderer Made to Eat His Own Poison. A story that reads like a chapter from a sensational novel comes from |he Pangeas, in Lozere, southern France. In this out-of-the-way spot dwells an Innkeeper named Avignon, with his sister and little nephew, a boy of eight. One evening an old man. who seemed to be unwell, made his appearance at the inn and asked for accommodation. Avignon invited him in, and left the stranger alone with his little nephew While he went on with his work. When he reentered the room, the boy, childlike, observed that there would be no need to salt the potatoes, as the old man had put salt into the saucepan in which they were boiling during Avignon's absence. If Avignon had any suspicions he concealed them, but when they sat down to supper, and the old man refused to take any of the potatoes, the innkeeper acted in away that must have astonished the guest. Avignon took down his gun, and, covering the stranger with it, commanded him to partake of the vegetables; and despite the protests and excuses of the old man he was obliged to eat. No sooner had he done so than he fell to the ground in great agony, and soon after expired. Avignon searched him, and found | in his pockets, besides a revolver and a knife, a whistle. The latter suggested an idea to the innkeeper. With the gun still ready for emergencies, he blew the whistle, and on two men running towards the inn, he fired. Neither appeared to be hit, but the unexpected nature of their reception caused them to turn tai), heedless of the fate of their accomplice. The plot, thus frustrated by the observation of the little boy, seems to have been aimed at the savings which Avignon is generally credited with ; having. Having poisoned Avignon, his sister and his nephews, thev could । have possessed themselves of whati ever there was worth taking In the j inn and have got quietly away. — End of the “400.” At a dinner in New York Dr. Charles ' i F. Aked of the Fifth Avenue Baptist i I church illustrated with a story the I I harm of church controversies. "There was an Argyllshire elder.” I ■ l ' ; “whom I asked, one day in London. L ow his kirk was get- i ting along. ' " Awe< I.' A«aid ho. 'we had 400 mem- 1 i beis. I hen we had a division, and ’ ! there were only 200 left. Then came I . a disruption, and only ten remained. | । I hen ue had a heresy trial, and now I ; there's only mo and ma brither Du- ! i gald left, and I have great doots of i i Dugald's orthodoxy.' ” Million Labels a Day. , Messrs. Bass &. Co., the brewers, have recently placed what, is probably Ujq largest contract that the world has known for labels. The orde- is for tHe supply dT the well-known redtriangle label which is supplied by Messrs. Bass to the bottlers who handle their pale ale. The order works out at rather more than 1,000,000 labels a day for each of the working days of the year. It is handled by a staff of some 80 workpeople, who devote their whole time to this one contract. Transmission of Sound. । the Arctic regions people can ! converse when more than a mile apart, I ' because the air. being cold and dense, is a very good conductor; and the smooth surface of the ice also favors the transmission of sound. All Sign the Pledge. Mr. Noble, the station master at Colwyn Bay, Eng., after prolonged and persistent efforts, has at last induced all the men under his command to sign a pledge of total abstinence from i all intoxicating liquors. Fertile Land of Peru. The chief agricultural region of Peru consists of a series of fertile parallel valleys running the entire extension of the coast—over 1,300 miles—back to the chain of the Andes, the distance varying from 25 to 75 miles. In Praise of Tolerance. Blessed be tolerance, sitting ever on the right hand of God, to guide the way with loving word, as blessed be all that brings us nearer the goal of true religion, true republicanism and true patriotism.—Henry Watterson.

PERUNA EDITORIAITnq. 2. CAT D A r ß?^X^nv lai ^ ed f 0 r year 3 that PerUDa EXCELLENT , l AailH REMEDY. Some 0f the doctor’s critics have disputed the doctor's claim as to the efficacy o f Peruna. Since the ingredients of Penina are no longer a secret, what do the medical amtnonties say concerning the remedies of which Peruna is composed? nnTiSi o i r .T ,M S nC ^ fte ingredient HYDRASTIS CANADENSIS, OR GOLDEN SEAL. The Jnited States Dispensatory says of this herbal remedy that it is largely employed in the treatment of depraved mucous membranes chronic rhinitis (nasal catarrh), atonic dyspepsia (catarrh of the stomach), chronic intestinal catarrh, catarrhal jaundice (catarrh of the liver), and in diseased mucous membranes of the pelvic organs. It is also recommended for the treatment of various forms of diseases peculiar to women. tt ^° a ther in J r6dient of Peruna, CORYDALIS FORMOSA, is classed in the United States Dispensatory as a tonic. CEDRON SEEDS is another ingredient of Peruna, an excellent dru? that has been very largely overlooked by the medical profession for the past fifty years. THE SEEDS ARE TO BE FOUND IN VERY FEW DRUG STORES lhe United States Dispensatory says of thu action of cedron that it is used as a m the treatment of dysentery, and in intermittent diseases as a SUBSTITUTE FOR QUININE. * On ^ F COPAIBA ’ mother ingredient of Peruna, is classed by the United States Dispensatory as a mild stimulant and diuretic. It acts on the stomach and intestinal tract. It acts as a stimulant on the genito-urinary membranes. I'" , Useful in chronic cystitis, chronic dysIQ t l i . entery and diarrhea, and some chromo vlir I 6rtin3, I ablet diseases of the liver and kidneys. a n imj’aL These opinions as to the ingredients IS re run a With Os Peruna are held by all writers on ri 'j n i the subject, including Bartholow and rima Removed. Scudder. i— OF HYDRASTIS, BARTHOLOW „ SAYS it is applicable to stomatitis (catarrh of uhe mucous surfaces of the mouth), follicular pharyngitis (catarrh, oi the pharynx), chronic coryza (catarrh of the head). This writer classes hydrastis as a stomachic tonic, useful in atonic dyspepsia (chronic gastric catarrh), catarrh of the duodenum, catarrh of the gall duct, catarrh of tho intestines, catarrh of the kidneys (chronic Bright’s disease), catarrh of the bladder, and catarrh of other pelvic organs, BARTHOLOW REGARDS COPAIBA as an excellent remedy for chronio catarrh of the bladder, chronic bronchitis (catarrh of the bronchial tubes BARTHOLOW STATES TEAT CUBEB, an ingredient of Peruna, promotes the appetite and digestion, increases the circulation of the blocd. Useful in chronic nasal catarrh, follicular pharyngitis (catarrh of tho pharynx), increasing tho tonicity of the mucous membranes of the threat. It also relieves hoarseness. Useful in atonic dyspepsia (catarrh of the stomach), and in chronic catarrh of the colon and rectum, catarrh of the bladder, prostatorrhea and chronic bronchial affections. MLLSPAUGH, MEDICINAL PLANTS, one of the most authoritative nnr t' herbs in tbe En & lish language, in commenting upon .DLLINSONIA CANADENSIS, says that it acts on the pneumogastric and vaso motor nerves. It increases the secretions of the mucous membranes in general. In the mountains of Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee and Carolina, collinsonia canadensis is considered a panacea for many disorders, including headache, colic, cramp, dropsy and indigestion. DR. SCUDDER regards it highly J 3 a remedy in chronic diseases of the lungs, heart disease and asthma. These citations ought to be sufficient to show to any candid mind that Penina is a catarrh remedy. Surely, such herbal remedies, that command tha enthusiastic confidence of the highest authorities obtainable, brought together m proper combination, ought to make a«catarTh remedy of the highest efficacy. This is our claim, and we are able to substantiate this claim by anw’e quotations from the HIGHEST MEDICAL AUTHORITIES IN THE WORLD
