THE RECORD, KENNA, NEW MEXICO.
An up-to-date remedy for
colds. That is what Peruna
is. In successful use over
30 years.
Colds are caught In many
ways: Illy ventilated rooms;
rooms that have direct draughts ;
crowded rooms; damp houses;
stuffy school rooms; offices illy
heated.
A dose of Peruna at the right
time, at the first symptom of
cold, before the bones begin to
ache, before the sore throat
manifests itself, or the cough, or
the discharge from the nose, just
a dose or two of Peruna before
these symptoms begin is gener
ally sufficient. But after the cold
is once established with the
above symptoms prominent, a
bottle of Peruna, or maybe two,
will be necessary.

Small Girl Was Certain Sunday School
Teacher Was Wrong on at
Least One Point.
The abilities of the Creator would
appear to have been slightly over
estimated, according to a story told
by Harry Lauder, the comedian.
"A Sunday school teacher," he said,
"was trying to Impress upon the
minds of her pupils the omnipotence
of God. 'God,' ehe said, 'had made the
trees, the land and seas, and fl.sh, the
animals, the birds.'
"A Utile hand went tip.
"'Did God make everything?'
"'Yes,' was the teacher's reply;
"he made everything.'
'"But I know one thing that he
didn't make.'
'"Do you? What is it?'
"'Why, God didn't make rabbit
holes, because I saw the rabbits mak
ing them themselves.' "
Napoleon's Victory at Brlenne.
One hundred years ago Napoleon
met the army of the allies at Brlenne,
a village in northeastern France, and
was victorious after a keenly contest
ed battle. The emperor had left Paris
only two days before, prepared to
make a last desperate effort to ha'lt
the advance of the enemy on the
French capital and thereby save his
tottering throne. The allied Russian
and Prussian armies were In command
of Marshal Blucher. Napoluon's forces
were in a deplorable condition. At
Brlenne, it is true, his old soldiers
displayed prodigies of courage In his
name and under his orders, but the
raw conscripts were discontented and
many of them deserted their colors.
Napoleon owed his victory chiefly to
the fact that he came up to Blucher
when the latter was separated from
a part of his forces. Prince Schwart
.zenberg. In command of the Austrian
forces, immediately set out for the
purpose of supporting the Prussians,
and the combined armies of the '
lies recommenced their advance on
Paris.

Mrs. Woodrow Wilson's Ideas on Dress Making
MRS. WOODROW WILSON, wife of the president. Is getting a whole lot of
support from women returning from abroad for her Ideas of home dreBs
making. It Is said by fashionable modistes in Rue de la Patx, Rue Taltbout
and Place Vendome that they are
practically facing ruin, in that they
are not able to keep their styles ex
clusive. Our American women htrve
been In the habit or going to Paris
for their swell society gowns, which
they buy as exclusive, and for which
they pay a fancy price and high duty.
They got them over here, only to find
that there are women here who have
worn a fac-simlle of their gowns for
weeks before they get back, and they
have about concluded that the American modiste 1b Just as artistic and deco
rative in their designs as any French modiste dare be. Mrs. Wilson, as the
wife of the governor of New Jersey, stated that she could dress on less than
$1,000 a year, and she is doing it to her own satisfaction, if not to that of the
high-priced foreign modistes. She selects her own silks, satins and laces and
has them constructed almost under her own eye, many of her little gowns be
ing made at the White House. A representative of a world-famous dress
maker in Rue Taltbout, most of whose customers are Americana, said that
unless It should prove possible to copyright not only designs of gowns, but also
of trimmings and combinations of colors, he would shortly have to give up his
present business and go in for wholesale manufacture.

Watch Carefully-
the Child's Diet
Start Them Off Right With a Good
Laxative and Then Watch
Their Food.
Mothers are often unconsciously
very careless about the diet of their
children, forcing all to eat the same
foods. The fact Is that all foods do
not agree alike with different persons.
Hence, avoid what seems to constipate
the child or to give It Indigestion, and
urge It to take more of what is quick
ly digested.
If the child shows a tendency to
constipation It should immediately be
given a mild laxative to help the bow
els. By this Is not meant a physio or
purgative, for these should never be
given to children, nor anything like
salts, pills, etc. What the child re
quires Is simply a small dose of the
gentlest of medicines, such as Dr.
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, which, In the
opinion of thousands of watchful moth
ers, is the Ideal remedy for any child
showing a tendency to constipation.
So many things can happen to a con
stipated child that care Is necessary.
Colds, plies, headaches, sleeplessness,
and many other annoyances that chil
dren should not have can usually be
traced to constipation.
Many of America's foremost families
are never without Syrup Pepsin, be
cause one can never tell when some
member of the family may need It,
and all can use It. Thousands endorse
It, among them Mrs. M. E. Fatten,
Valley Junction, Iowa, who is never
without it In the house. Mrs.. Patten
GOT AWAY WITH SOMETHING
Old Ben's Forebodings Turned Out
to Be Correct, Though Booty
Was Not Valuable.
Old iBen was a kleptomaniac. He
realized his falling, which caused him
such keen humiliation that it was
with difficulty he could be persuaded
to enter the homes of any of the
neighbors.
One evening an old friend of Ben's
returned to the town for a -visit and
called on Ben. Later he proposed they
go together to make a call on a mu
tual friend, but, to his surprise, Ben
refused.
"No, no," be cried, shaking his head,
I can't go."
' "Why not?" asked his friend. "It's
only a step away, and It's not late
now; besides I don't know when I'll
be round these parts again."
"Well," said Ben, "you know how I
always steal, but If you promise to
watch me, and see I take nothing, I'll
KO."
"Ben," said his friend, as they re
turned, "you did nobly. I watched you
every minute, and you never took a
thing!"
"Don't," groaned Ben, as he pulled
a moist rag out of his pocket "I've
got the dishcloth!"

displayed on a buffet table, and of
these ier attention was particularly
drawn to a big Japanese cup. Tak
ing It up to examine the details of de

that the piece had been broken and
awkwardly glued. She called hor
hostess' - attention to the fracture,
whereupon the latter Immediately
summoned her maid.
"Margaret," said the lady of the
house, "this cup Is broken."
"Yls, mum, I had an accident."
"But It has been glued together,"
continued the mistress. "It Is un
pardonable of you to conceal your
fault In this way to glue the pieces
without saying a word to me. Now,
if yov had come to me openly and
said you had broken it I would have
forgiven you and "
"Excuse me, mum," interposed the
maid, eagerly, "the other one like It
