It was evident from the animation reigning in the corner of the draw ing-room that Dollie and Millie, who v.*re playiOo Lucre, were enjoying their game to the full. Papa and a friend had been playing cards, But they soon tired of it. and the guest moved toward the young people and began to talk to them. "What game are you playing?" he asked genially, and ascertained that it was a make-believe wedding. "I," said Dollie proudly, "am a bridesmaid, Mr. Smith." "Indeed! observed that gentleman, with interest. "And what is Millie?" "The bride," was the answer. The visitor thought for a moment. "And whe-e," he asked at length, "Is the bridegroom?" It was Dollie's turn to think, but she did not think long. "Oh," she answered airily, "this Is "mly a very quiet wedding!"?An sv. ers. Her Last Hope Gone. .

"Come brch vith sho^ and stnc!'. nga or I can't ta.;e you." said tho manager; and Stanley went out to face a harder problem than was the search for Livingston. After think ing It out, he slipped back into the j business ofcice, and buttonholed the iay-boy. "Have you ;ot another pair of shoes and stockings?" he asked. "No," said the other.

A man can get trimmed in good style without visiting a milliner. When a girl gets to reciting "To be or not to bee," she gets stung.

The can on whispered to him to dispense with the salute and simply repeat?after him.

PROniNENT HOSPITALS SAY ES5SSSSS5SSS5SSS'SSESSS5SSSSSSSS5ESSSSSSSS53SESSS-i PE-RU-NA IS EFFICIENT ja5H5H5H5H5H5H5H5H5H5H5a5S5S5ESH5HS5SHSHSH5E5H5HSHSS5a5SSE5HSH5HS5SZSHSS IN RELIEVING ALL CATARRHAL DISEASES. HOSPITALS ALL OYER THE CONTINENT FIND PE-RU-NA VALUABLE IN TREATING ALL CATAKBIIAL DISEASES CATARRH of the respiratory organs is a common ailment in Canada for at least two-thirds of the year. This condition is no doubt caused by the long, severe winters experienced in this part of the continent. Therefore, when Peruna was discov ered by Canadian people to be a reliable remedy for these catarrhal diseases, it at onco became a popular medicine, not only among Individuals and in families, but in the great hospitals, where it was used as a preventative and relief in hundreds of cases. These institutions do not hesitate to give their endorsement of tho remedy which has been so helpful in the treat ment of their poor and sick. Among these institutions is that of tho Sisters of Good Shepherd, who gave the following endorsement: The Peruna Company, Columbus, Ohio, Having used Peruna for the past few months, for oar sick and poor, we are bappy to say that it has given us great satisfaction. The Sisters of the Good Shepherd, August20,1903. Montreal. After a continued use of tho romedy> this institution has found no reason to change its good opinion of tho remedy and expresses its satisfaction in the fol lowing terms i Montreal, Nov. 7,1903. Wt found Peruna a relief in several cases. We can say it is a good tonic and we are very thnv.kfuf. Sisters of the Good Shepherd. When catarrh once fastens itself upon the system it becomes an obstinate dis ease to eradicate. A systemic remedy?one that reaches every internal organ of the body?is an absolute necessity. Peruna is Just such a remedy. It searches out the cause of the disease, healing and strengthening tho mucous membranes, and thus giving Nature an opportunity to perform her part of the restorative process. One of the many hospitals which have found Peruna of value in treating old and obsti aate cases of catarrh is the Hospital St. John, who write, as follows: "We are happy to tell you that your Peru:aa has given us satisfaction. Three patients have tried it, one t!8 years old, Renoui Dupuis, afflicted with catarrh, is much relieved, more than he has been for a number of years. * "A young girl, IS years old, had an obstinate cough, which half a bottle of Peruna caused to disappear. "As to myself, two bottles have con vinced me that Peruna is magnificent as a ionic. "Bafore the treatment I could not walk for a quarter of an hour without experiencing much fatigue. Now I can walk a mile easily. "Through these three cases we desire to make known to-the public the ef ficiency of your remedy." Hospital St. John, of St. Johns, Province of Quebec* A later letter received from the same institution reads as follows: "Three weeks ago 1 wrote to tell you how satisfactory we found Peruna. We recommend It highly for colds, coughs, catarrh and neuralgia. "I have used it myself as a tonic with tho best results, taken as directed, half a teaspoonful every half hour." Mrs. Etta Booker, Dundurn, Sask, N. W. T., Canada, writes: "I suffered with pelvic catarrh until I wrote to Dr. Hartman, and after tak ing treatment as he advised, I can say I am now cured of this most trying affliction, for which I am truly thank ful. I think Peruna the best medicine for catarrh. I never felt better in my life than I do at present." \. Peruna not only promptly relieves coughs and colds in their first stages, but is equally prompt and efficient for catarrhal diseases in tho chronic stage. Of course, it is only reasonable to supposo that a great deal less medicine, will be necedsary to cure a slight attack of catarrh than would be required to relieve the ailment after it had been al lowed to become chronic.
