F. tWK D. 1, Appleton, Wis. ier letter reads: "I began using Peruna a few months ago when my health and strength were all gone, and I was nothing but a nervous wreck. Could not sleep, eat or rest properly, and felt, no desire to live. "Three bottles of Peruna madn me look at life in a difTerent liglyt, as I began to regain my 6st utrength,. While my 'recovery ook nearly four months, at fhe d of that time I was better t a I ever had been before. I had splendid color and never weighed ore in my life.

Rhubarb that comes in its natural order is to me so horrible that the thought ot forcing it, too, turns me cold:' SWORDS IN JAPAN. In Former Year# They Were Treated Almost With Fgeverence. In Japan until within recent times the sword was considered a badge of the i'ristocracy. Tile eti quetto that regulated the wearing of the long and the short sword was expressed in a number of mi nute rules. The most trivial breach of these minute observances was often the cause of murderous brawls and dreadful reprisals. To touch an other's weapon or to come into col lision with the sheath was a dire offense, and to enter a friend's house without leaving the sword outside was at breach of friendship. lie whose position justified the ac companiment of an attendant in variably left the sword in his charge at the entrance, or if he were alone it was usually laid down at the en trance. If removed inside this was invariably done by tihe host's serv ants, and it was not touiched. by the bare hand, but with a silk nap kin kept for the purpose. The sword was placed upon a sword rack, in the place of honor near the guests and treated with all the politeness due to an 'honored visitor who wokild resent a discour tesy. To exhibit a naked weapon was a gross insult, unless when a gen tleman wished to show his friends his collection. To express a wish to see a sword was not usual unless the blade in question was of great value, when a request to be shown it would be a compliment. The sword would then be handed with the back toward the guest, the edge turned toward the owner and the hilt to the left, the guest wrapping the hilt either in the little silk nap kin always carried by gentlemen in their, pockets, or in a sheet of clean paper. The weapon was drawn from the scabbard and admired inch by inch, but not to the full length unless the owner pressed his guest to do so, when with much apology the sword was entirely drawn and held away from the other persons pres ent. After being admired it would be carefully wilped with a special cloth, sheathed and returned to the owner as before. The short sword was retained in the girdle, but at a long visit both host and guest laid it aside.-Wash ington Star. Fear of the Evil Eye. Egypt, "the country like no oth er," is notable for stately women and dirty looking children. In the fashionable parts you may still see the well groomed mother followed by her apparently neglected off spring, often perfect taterdemna lions. By iaking them outwardly unattractive, so as to excite neither admiration nor envy, the Egyptian mother hopes to protect her little ones from the malign influence of the "evil eye." Boys are said to arouse more envy than girls, and~ for that reason are often disguised in their sisters' garments. And when the influence of evil spirits is suspected the mother fumigates her chlild withl tile ashes of alum and salt.-London Chronicle. Keen Scent of the Dog. A rabbit hears a man anld a dog coming alld goes bounding away for safety. TIhe dog strikes the scent, smells around briefly and then is off in tihe diretion the rabbit has taken. Tlhe wonder is nlot that the dog shouldl strike the scent, but1 this: Each of the several sp~ots the rabbit touched was touched by himl withmin a fraction of a second of one alnothe', yet so accurate is tihe sense of sm~h1 of the dog thlat lhe can tell whmichm wasl touiche~d last and so get the direct ion of the rabbit's course. -Exchamnge.
