The following interesting letter gives one young woman’s experience with Peruna: Miss Rose Gerbing, a popular society ‘woman of Crown Point, Ind., writes: “Recently I took a long drive in the country, and being too thinly clad I caught a bad cold which settled on my lungs, and which I could not seem to shake off. I had heard a great deal of Peruna for colds and catarrh and [ bought a bottle to try. I am pleased that I did, for it brought speedy relief. It only took about two bottles, and I consider this money well spent, “You have a firm friend in me, and I not only advise its use to my friends, Florence E.

Pe- runais perfectly harmless. It can be used any length of time without acquir- ing a drug habit. Peruna does not pro- duce temporary results, It is permanent in its effect, It has no bad effect upon the system, and gradually eliminates catarrh by re- moving the cause of catarrh.

Riga, March 8 —Maxim Gorky and hie wife are staying at the pension Kewitch Bilderlingsbof, a seaside re- sort on the Golf of Riga. The novel- ist occupies a tiny wooden house in the shade of the forest of pines near the edge of the seashore, which is piled with masses of ice. Gorky, his wife and correspondent spend the day tramping along the {ce or through theforest Thenovelistisin excellent epirits.

Statistics just compHed by Geo. B. Ellis, Secretary of Agriculture, show that last year Missouri spent $100,- 000 to help solve the problem of farming. Noxt year if bills now be- fore the Legislature become laws the expenditures for this branch of educa- tion will be in the neighborhood of $200,000. $75,000 of this was ex- pended through the Missouri Agricul- tural College at Columbia. The re- maining $25,000 was expended through the three State Normal Schools. The work done by the Agricultural College consists of teach- ing, lecturing to farmers institutes and experiments. 160 students were taught last year and institutes held in 147 towns. Important experi- ments were also carried on. Some {dea of the importance of these ex- periments may be obtained from the fact that through them a means of preventing Texas fever in cattle was found. The work done by the Nor- mal Schools is that of teaching. The most important Logislation now pending provides for agricultural in- struction in high schools. Missouri Senate Adopts Clarke Pipe Line Bill. Jefferson City, Mo., March 13.— Senator Clarke called up his Stand ard Oil pipe line bill this afternoon and secured its passage without op- position.

A Rat Scared the Lion. , Bridgeport, Conn., March 13.—A group of twenty-five investigators watched the experiment in Barnum & Bailey’s winter quarters of introduc: ing a rat with string attached into the animal cages. When the rat rushed between the massiveforepaws of the big Barbary lion the latter leaped the full length of his cage, showing every evidence of terror. The moment, however, the rat was cast into the cage of the Pumas the instinct shown in the domestic cat was exhibited. There was one wide a tasteless form.

Sctentific agriculture conducted by agraduate of the lowa State Agri- culture college, which is likewise a girlof22 and weighs just 102 pounds, will be one of the experiments which the Rosebud reservation in South Dakota will witness this spring. Miss Lottie Rogers, of Boone, Iowa, college graduate and enthusiast on the subject of scientific agriculture, drew one of the best prizes in the Rosebud land lottery last summer. She proposes to keep it, too, and to this end will quit society and heram- bitions to be a writer, and early in the spring will go to Gregory, where her claim is located. She will superintend the construc- tions of a house, in which sheexpects to live with her younger brother. She will break and plant enough land to wheat and corn to assure an am- ple supply of feed for the stock she will take aléng, and she proposes to do this work alone—to do it with ber own hands. It isn’t because she needs to do it, but because she wants to prove her- self worthy of the prizo Uncle Sam gave her. Her father is « railroad official, and Miss Rogers is going to farm juet because it pleases her to have the exporience of roughing iton the frontier. arranged to establish a fish hatchery upon it, his son and widow have ten- dered the place to the government and ask that {t be accepted and the fish hatchery established.

Death From Plague 34,000. Caleutta, March 13.—The deaths from the plague last week numbered 34,000. Statistics show that within a few years the deaths from bubonic plague has reached nearly three mil- Hons. In 1903 the mortality in India from the plague alone was 850,000. The number of deaths recorded last week, while extraordinary, fenot un- precedented. The infection spread recently to Burmah, where it is making rapid strides. This season of the year al- ways favors its spread The Indian government is making every effort to eradicate it, destroying by burn- ing whole sections of towns and seg- regating the inhabitants. Butowing to the climate and the sanitary con- dition of the outlying districts and the native sections of the towns it is difficult to cope with the epidemic, which breake out continually at fresh pointe, The deaths are said to be 90 per cent of those infected. As a result of the plague the labor supply for the manufacturing centers has seriouslg depreciated. So long has the plague existed that the natives regard it callously. The “Tramp Chair” in Maine. Kansas City Star. Tramps are numerous these days in the suburbs of Kansas City and persons who are compelled to feed the itinerants wish that Missouri had a law similar to that of the state of Maine. Under the Maine law any person has the right to arrest the tramp begging at his door and {a ex- pected to deliver his prisoner to an officer. To facilitate the transportation of the unfortunate “bum” cages on wheels are provided by the state and stationed at intervals at farm houses. These cages are of steel, rest on wheels, and are provided with a seat for the comfort of “Weary Willie” while he is being trundled to jail. There are no eprings to the vehicle and should the road be rough and the way long the passenger is likely to welcome jail as a relief from the tortures of the cart. This queercon- trivance is called a tramp chair. © Postal Clerk Under Arrest. St. Louis, Mo., March 11.—On the charge of having embezzled $400 of the money order and postal iunds, Wright A.
