WHAT IS PE RU-MA? Es it a Catarrh Remedy, or e Tonic, or is it Both? Some people call Peruna a great j Ionic. Others refer to Peruna as a gpreat catarrh remedy. Which of these people are right? Is it more proper to call Peruna a catarrh remedy than to call it a tonic? Our reply is, that Peruna is both a tonic and a catarrh remedy. Indeed, there can be no effectual catarrh remedy that is not also a tonic. In order to thoroughly relieve any case of catarrh, & remedy must not only have a specific action on the mucous membranes affected by the catarrh, but it must have a general tonic action on the nervous system. uauuiu, fyvcix jjli ^aovaio nuv eu.c otherwise strong, is a weakened condition of some mucous membrane. There must be something to strength-' en the circulation, to give tone to the arteries, and to raise the vital forces Perhaps no vegetable remedy in the | world has attracted so much attention ! from medical writers as HYDRASTIS J CANADENSIS. The wonderful efficacy of this herb has been recognized many years, and is growing in its hold upon the medical profession. When joined with CT7BEBS and COPAIBA a trio of medical agents is formed in Pe- j runa which constitutes a specific rem-! edy for catarrh that in the present! state of medical progress cannot be improved upon. This action, rein forced Dy such renowned tonics as COLUNSONIA CAJT >ENSIS, COE-! YDALIS FOEMOS nd CEDEOB SEEP, ought to max. lis compound an ideal remedy for ca. rrh in all iti stages and locations in the body.

A certain young society man was . much given to telling exaggerated j stories and was rapidly gaining a i rfrmtntinn fnr untruthfulness which I worried his friends and particularly j his chum, who remonstrated with [ him and threatened to disown him if ; he did not mend his ways. "Charlie," said he, "you must stop j this big story business of yours or \ you- are going to lose me as a friend. Nobody believes a word you say, and j you are getting to be a laughing- i stock." Charlie admitted that he was aware j of the fact but complained that he , jould not overcome his fault, try as ' he would. He suggested that had he j but somebody beside him when he j started to elaborate upon his tale, to i tread on his foot, he was sure he i :ould break the habit. A few days later they were invited j to a dinner party and his chum i agreed to sit next to Charlie and step | Dn his toe if he went too far.

Almost everyono likes a cereal food of some kind at breakfast and supper, but the ordinary way of cooking cereals results in a pasty mass that Is hard to digest, and if not properly digested, the raw mass goes down into the intestinal tract where gas is generated and trouble follows. Everyone knows that good food properly digested keeps the body well, while poor food, or even food of good quality that Is poorly prepared and not digested, is sure to bring on some kind of disease. The easiest food to digest in this line is Grape-Nuts, made from wheat and barley, and cooked thoroughly at the factory, some 12 to 16 hours being consumed in the different processes of preparation. The food, therefore, is ready for instant service and the starch has been changed to a form of Sugar, so that it is predigested and ready for almost immediate absorption. A Chicago young lady writes that she suffered for years from indigestion and dyspepsia from the use of food that was not suitable to her powers of digestion. She says: "I began using Grape-Nuts, and I confess to having had a prejudice at first, and was repeatedly urged before I finally decided to try the food, but I have not known what indigestion is * sincc using it, and have never been stronger or in better health. 1 have increased in weight from 109 to 124 pounds." People can be well, practically without cost, if they will adopt scien tific food and leave off the indigesti- [ jjle sort. "There's a Reason." Grape-Nuts Food is crisp and delicious to the taste.

Y.?Preaching at the Irving Square Jfresbyterian Church, Hamburg avenue and Weirfield street, on the above them, the Rev. Ira Wemmell Henderson, pastor, took as his text, Daniel, 3:18. He said: The courage of these men was sublime. Their heroism was remarkable. The story of their strength of character is not an ordinary one. They might easily have played the king false by bowing down to his idols while still serving their God in their hearts. In all likelihood Nebuchadnezzar would have been satisfied had they simply bent the knee to his gods. And how could a mere man, even tnougn ne were a King, aivine the devotions of their inmost hearts? Here was a place where most men would have considered discretion the better part of valor. Here was a chance for compromise in externals for the sake of saving one's life. Here was the supreme test of their characters. They might have made excuses for themselves to their own minds and to God, and have worshiped the golden image. They did neither. They were true Jews. They served the God of Israel, who had said unto His people by the mouth of Moses the deliverer and law-giver, "Thou shalt not bow down unto them nor serve them." Therefore, they stood erect when the sound of "all kinds of music" made the multitude fall down. And standing, they are monuments to moral heroism. Heroism has great value in life and ? f WT {IV? Aiif 4 f ttr a n/Mil/1 AO vaucu. XV UUUUt It YV c V.UU1U UUl make much, if any progress. A man may be as a prophet in his perception and comprehension of divine truth, but if he lack heroism his powers are largely unavailable to society. Conviction needs courage to become a living force. It is one thing to have a vision, and another to declare it. It is one thing to have knowledge, and another to expound it. It is one thing to have a valid and substantiated opinion, and another to state it. It is one thing to detect sham and sin, and quite another to unmask them. The world is full of men who could do evil to the death in many a place did they only dare. But it is so manifestly one thing to know the truth and another to stand up for it and to proclaim it. The value of heroism cannot be denied. With it Moses faced the terrors and the torments of the desert and the threatenings of the wandering people of God. With it Isaiah and the prophets assailed mighty sin in the name of Almighty God. With it Columbus sailed the wide, uncharted eeas, and discovered America to a ready world. With it Luther hurled defiance to the machinations of Roman ecclesiasticism and marked an epoch in the majestic march of manhood toward our present liberty of thought. With it the heroes of Valley Forge kept the faith for civil liberty and under the impulse of its spirit the slave was freed. Without it Jesus would never have become our Saviour. Valuable as heroism is, it is not less varied. For heroism is individual and social, physical and moral, lustrous and humble. The men of Lexington and Santiago, of Trafalgar and of Waterloo, the heroes of Hebrew history and of the Crusades, the hosts who followed Napoleon or Wellington or Washington or Stonewall Jackson or any of the famous captains of armies, ansient or modern, are examples of svhat we may term physical social heroism. Many were the instances of humble, individual moral courage displayed by soldiers serving under all these military geniuses. And yet, in the last analysis, their heroism was that of brute strength let loose and dependent, as much as upon anything, upon the flags, and the fanfare, and the smell and sight of blood, and the crowd moving together to the battle for its inspiration and its sustentation. It is not my purpose to insinuate that even under these conditions It is an easy thing to fare forth to try conclusions with fate. EUit in comparison with the pluck needed to flo many another deed it is easy. There is, too, an individualistic, lustrous heroism which is even less trying and exacting. He is a hero, I care not who he may be, who will lead a willing army on to a flght where victory is sure, or who will point the way to a moral victory to men who are with him and who sight the same truth that he sees. For many a man has lacked the heroism to lead even though the skies were full of portents of success. It is so much easier to relinquish the responsibility of leadership to another. OAk-ei-? are marked men. We must admit a great measure of physical heroism in the action of t!ie man wl:o will test his strength against the wild animal that would lake his life.' It takes nerve as well p.3 muscle to moot a bully who richly needs and deserves a thrashing, and make him cot the dust. But in the category of heroic virtues these are the least. ? At this time T would call vour at tention to the heroisms which we have and need in our daily life, the heroisms of the humble, moral host who constitute the mainstay of this land and who are the backbone of Ameri'.-a, the men and women and children who in an inconspicuous, but, none the less efficient, fashion, giy? themselves as living sacrifices upon the altar of devotion to God and hflme and country. I would have you again remember if you havo been so ungracious as to forget the offerings of that countless host of simple, homely people who daily live for the common good and the public weal. I would call to your attention the leaders of our day wh^, in the face of sin and of opposition and of militant and imperious solf-satisfaction, are effecting the salvation of America and teaching her people how to help themselves. For we have much heroism of this sort in tlila land. And v/e need more. It is easy in a way to fall into line and to march down to the war when the summons comes and the music plays and the people cheer an.l wo know that death will earn us deathless, though perhaps not individual, fame. But what is the coumpe of the loader or the soldier in the front line ol the fierce fight to that of the toiler liw <lnv wnrlfc oml rilnns nrtr? IT III#, ,.-j v....-, slaves and lives that children may be roared and prepared for life and the home bo kopt iotact? That fatner yonder who, from sunrise to sunset, day in and day out, In health and sickness, when iad or glad, toils for wife and family; ia he not heroic? That mother, wilh her cleanly brood six, the' '*>, manager and diopensii' pittance; that child wno aione supports a home; that maiden who is pure and sweet upon wages that are criminal before the living God, who shall deny the sublimity of their ; humble heroism? To my mind the heroism of the plain people, who have little but who serve so much, to whom life offers such a meager portion but who make it go so far, is a most sublime, as it is i a most compelling, fact of human life. I can conceive of nothing harder, day by day, to arise to face the impenetra ble wall of hardship and of approxi-' , mate poverty which dominates the i horizon of so many lives. I can picture nothing more unutterably un, bearable than, day by day, to be compelled to undergo the refined slavery ; that is unquestionably characteristic of so much of our modern life. To desire to live in the face of it, to decide to struggle against it, to hope even against hope, to live a?d to love, , to get a little and to give a little, to retain and to augment the diviner | characteristics that alone differentiate humanity from the beast, to plan for posterity and to have faith in God in i the midst of the relative riches that constitute the poverty of our times, is heroic. We should thank God for the heroism of those among us who have so little and wh? live so largely, in proportion as they have capacity and opportunity, for the common weal. We should thank God that they are faithful, that they know i how to live simply, that they are moral. For if ever the men and women wno are uie uurueu-ucaicio in the world's work become saturated with the vices, the follies and the fallacies concerning life that Infest the minds of those who constitute the topmost and the nethermost strata of society, the world will have short shrift. Another sort of heroism that we must never fail to remember and consider and to which we owe much, is that moral heroism among the political and religious leaders of the country that Is increasingly obvious and actively at work. For that heroism ie real. The forces of unrighteousness are intrenched. The army of greed at , any price is already in the field. The plunderers of the public are as busy as the vultures that prey upon the dead. The camp followers who are 1 out for petty graft are busily at work. The sleek, self-satisfied captains of : political and commercial piracy are at i the front. They are all the more < dangerous because they have per- j suaded themselves that they are sin- ( cere, that the benefits they have un- , doubtedly been instrumental in bringing to society excuse and justify the 1 rapacity of which they have been and to-day are guilty. They scorn government, they laugh at law, they scoff at the rising tide of popular disap- i proval. Their special pleaders are hired, their subsidized papers are already bought, many of their books 1 are burnt. They invite the test and 1 even dare to threaten. In pulpit and ? in pew, on the forum and in halls of 1 learning, wherever there is an itching < palm or a callous heart there their j champions may be found. It is need- j less for me to expand the story by ? telling you of the governments, mu- ] nlcipal and state, that they may al- * most be said to own, the legislatures ' that they have bought or have tried < to buy, of the defiance that they 1 throw into the very teeth of administrative officers who with honesty and singleness of purpose attempt to ( bring them to account. j We are face to face with no theory. . We are confronted with the tiost unpalatable facts, when everything is considered, with which any nation has ever had to deal. There is no use in waiting for a declaration of hostilities. The war is already on. The eiremy is in the field. Heroism is required to go up against him for "the sake of our cities and for the people of our God." Heroism has already been shown. It has already cost some men dear. The dictum is to pulpit and press, to politician and statesman, to the financial and the business world, to labor and to capital, to the world at large: We have erected our golden image, it suit us, bow down ir be consumed. And woe betide the man with the information and the heroism necessary to refuse to bow. Men have refused. They have been consumed. The threat to-day is bow down or be ruined. Touch us not lest the country die. Forsooth we shall refrain to eradicate the vermiform appendix of financial and commercial and political indecency and disease because of the shock to the patient. Thank God v.e have men of heroism ? ^j tt:v)n i Ul liaiiU , IIJVII Yf U\J JLIftTt ?T iJUVUi, 1TUV have the hand and the nerve and the experience and the wisdom to disobey our modern Nebuchadnezzars and to operate. And they will not be burnt. Their heroism will not spell their death. It will not invite disaster. It will save the patient from uglier ills and worse torments. The sort of heroism that can live humbly in the contemplation of such evil with trust in God and confidence in the heroism of the leaders that are called is the sort that has made America a power. The heroism that . remains steadfast and faithful in the face of regnant wrong is the heroism that illuminates her history. She has much of it. She needs more of it. It should be rewarded. It should have our support. We should have it. For it is the heroism of the Christ. ' "Am 1 My Brother's Keeper?" Cardinal Gibbons, in a sermon preached recently at Southampton, L. I., answered this question by saying: "You are your brother's keeper, and you will be held responsible to God as such." The Bishop of Kentucky, in an address to the Brotherhood of St. Andrew, at its annual convention in Memphis last year, gave the same answer to the same ques- | tion. Both Cardinal Gibbons and the Bishop of Kentucky give the obvious answer, the answer that suggests it- self at first sight. But there is nothing in the passage in Genesis when it is closely examined to suggest that Cain was expected to be his brother's keeper. God's purpose in the foundation of the family had been frustrated by Cain's act, yet Cain was not hia brother's keeper, for Abel was not under Cain's tutelage. The relation U of tutelage is not the relation of brothers, for the family cannot exist f if one brother is subordinated to an- f other. The family implies an abiding link between all brothers, but it is not a bond between a superior and o u subordinate. In the family individ- t< uals are developed by mutual co- ' operation, not by the mastery of one i' brother over another. Cain was not J Abel's keeper any more than Abel was Cain's keeper.?From Tlie ? Churcnraan. e: ? An Educational Defect. Manufacturers complain, not without reason, that the young man who emerges from Oxford or Cambridge with a fine scholastic record is very often useless for practical purposes. We have a magnificent teaching-machine for those who can afford to en joy it, but it is not an instrument that develops that faculty of selfreliance. It is very easy in these days to get a youth capable of carrying out instructions in any department for which he has been trained, but take him away from routine and leavo him to his own resources, and the chances are that he will be a failure.?Country Life.

The stealing of elephants seems to be proceeding in Siam on a scale which the owners of the elephants do not appear to find at all humorous. The industry in which the elephants that are stolen are so largely used is the teak timber trade, and it has been reported by the British Consul that the thefts are interfering with the profits of the work. The extent of the trouble may be gauged by the simple figures conveyed by the facts that in a space of a little more than a year one firm had twenty-sis elephants stolen, of which fourteen were recovered, and another twenty-two stolen and thirteen recovered. The crowning insult appears to have been Lhe stealing of one of the Consul's own transport elephants belonging Lo the British Government, which has now been missing for nearly a year, i ?From Country Life. ?_______ Foreign Languages in Japan.
