It is not until tho dise ase has a firm hold upon the kvtlneys that tho patient begins to realize that there is some Ue« rangement of these organs. Tho slight baebaches, iho -feelings of | lassitude, and other warning symptoms of kidney disease are overlooked. They are not serious enough to detain the patient from ids regular work. Even when lie discovers that the kid- nevs are affected, he does not recognize the difficulty as being caused by ca tarrh. Catarrh is sometimes so very gradual in its approach and its earlier symptoms cause such slight discomfort that it is not noticed. However, when it is once firmly seated in the kidneys, it becomes a difficult disease to exterminate. Indeed,catarrh of the kidneys is more serious than catarrh affecting some of the other organs of the body. In the kidneys, it is liable to terminate in Bright’s Disease or diabetes, both of which are recognized as very serious ailments, if not fatal.

Such a remedy has been found in Peruna. It reaches catarrh, no matter where it may be located in the body—whether in the more exposed membranes of the nose and throat, or whether in the remotest part of the kidneys. That Peruna is at once the safest and most reliable rcmtSdy for catarrh of the kidneys is proven by tho many testi monials written by those who have ex perienced its beuciits. The testimonial given here is only a specimen of the many testimonials on our records, pertaining to the relief af forded by Peruna in severe cases of kid ney trouble.

These ants pre fer the shade and. rather than be ex posed to tho rays of the blazing sun, will burrow tunnels under the surface of the ground and thus travel until they come to the shelter of trees. Any animal which, unaware of the proxim ity of the bull ant and reposing In the solitude of the velt, happens to be attacked lias no chance of escape. It Is devoured with irresistible fury, and within a few minutes a pile of bleached bones marks Ahe spot where it reposed. A great deal of valuable information about this dreaded creature has been published by a French zoologist, M. de Chailler, who has described a personal encounter with the bull ant. “I re member well the first time I met the basbikouays on a raid. I knew not what was in store for me. I was hunt ing by myself, when suddenly the for est became alive with the foe. A sud den dread seized me, and I stood still in the hunting path, resting on my gun. Suddenly, as if by magic, I was cov ered and bitten everywhere. I fled in haste and found refuge in a deep stream, yet even then the strong pinch ers of the unis would not give way, and though the bodies were torn off the heads remained.

"One day just before an eclipse of the sun.” said the scientist. “Mr. Lowell told his darkey, George, that if he would watch the chickens the following morning about 11 o’clock he would see them all eo to roost. “‘Hi, hi,’ laughed George. ‘Hi, hi; good joke.’ ” “When on thg following morning the sun darkened and the chickens went to their roosts, George was amazed and horrified. He found Mr. Ijowell as soon as he could and said: “ ‘How long, sah, did you know bout those chickens?’ “ ‘Oh, a long time.’ “You knew it last year this time?” "‘Yes; more than a year ago.’ “ ‘Well, dat beats all,’ said the as tounded darkey, eyeing Mr. Lowell with awe. ‘Dem chickens wuzn’t hatched a year ago.’ ” nm’s Lirviirveivt h cv whole medicine chest Price 25c 50c 6 * 100 ■Send For Free Booklef on Horses.Cattle.Hogs Addres6 Dr. Earl S.

Most diseases have their char acteristic odors, and by the exercise of the sense of smell they could be util ized in different diagnoses. For example, favus has a mousy odor, rheumatism has a copious sour smelling, acid sweat. A person af flicted with pyaemia has a sweet, nau seating breath. The rank, unbearable odor of pus from the middle ear tells the tale of the decay of osseous tissue. In scurvy the odor is putrid, in chron ic peritonitis musky, in scrofula like stale beer, in intermittent fever like fresli baked brown bread, in fever am- mouiucul, in hysteria like violets or pineapple.

His clerk one day asked him for a holiday to get mar ried, and some months afterward, on entering his chambers. Williams found Ills dead body suspended from the door. He engaged another clerk and asked him if he was married. “No,” the clerk replied, but thinking that Wil liams would regard marriage as a guarantee of steadiness he added, “but I am going to la*.” “Very well,” re plied Williams, "but understand this— when you hang yourself don’t do it here!” Fixing; Her Faer.
