WHEN "STARCH WAS NEW.

"A package of starch?" asked the In
telligent and learned grocer, and as lie
wrapped the package up he talked.
"Starch ; originated," , he said, ."In
Flanders. It-was Introduced Into Eng
land, with the big ruff, In the time of
Queen Elizabeth. It wa like our starch
of today, except that It was made hi
jolors red, yellow, green, blue. The

white linen to which the starch might
be applied. 1
"Before Queen i::izabetbs time ruf
rfoa nnri ruffs wevj made of fine hol-
land, which required no stiffening.
Then the ruffs of cambric came, and
these must of necessity be starched."
The grocer, consulting his memoran
dum book, resumed:
"It Is recorded that 'when the queeu
had ruffs made of lawn and cambric
for her own princely wearing there was
none In England could tell how to
starch them; but the queen made spe

Pedigree of Arabian Horse.
The Arabs have no written pedi
grees. It is all an affair of memory
and of notoriety In the tribe. Certain
alleged pedigrees of Arabian horses,
couched in romantic language and rep
ooontori bs carried In a small bag and
hung by a cord around the animal's
neck, have been pubiisnea, dui muse
are forgeries got up probably by horse
dealers, Egyptian, Syrian or Persian.
The breeding of every norse is a mat
ter of common knowledge, and It
would be Impossible for his owner to
fabricate pedigree so as to deceive the
natives, even If he were so inclined.
The Bedouins, it seems necessary to
admit, are In general great liars, and
they will He (to a stranger) about the
age, the qualities or the ownership of
a horse, but they will not lie about his
pedigree, even when they can do so
with impunity. To be truthful on this
subject Is almost a matter of religion,
certainly a point of honor In the des
ert. Atlantic.
Robert R. Roberts, I.I. D.,
Washington, D. C, writes:
"Through my own experience as
well as that of many of tny friends
on armmintances who have been
cured or relieved of catarrh by the
use of Hartman's Peruna, I can
confidently recommend it to those
suffering from such disorders, and
have no hesitation in prescribing
it to my patients." Robert R.
Roberts.
A constantly increasing number of
physicians prescribe Peruna in their
regular practice. It has proven Its
merits so thoruohly that even the doc
tors have overcome their prejudice
against so-called patent medicines and
recommend It to their patients.
Peruna occupies a unique position In
medical science. It Is the only Internal
systemic cartarrh remedy known to
the medical proression toaay.

I of one-half the diseases Which afflict
mankind. Catarrh and catarrhal dis

We say Peruna cures catarrh. The
people say Peruna cures catarrh.
Prominent men and women all over
the United States from Maine to Cal
ifornia do not hestitate to come out in
public print to say that Peruna is what
it Is reommended to be, an Internal
systemic catarrh remedy that cures
catarrh wherever It may be located.
Dr. M. C. liee s experience.
Dr. M. C. Gee Is one of the physicians
who endorse Peruna. In a letter
written from 513 Jones street, San
Francisco, Cal., he says:
"There is a general objection on the
part of the practicing physician to ad
vocate patent medicines. But when
any one medicine cures hundreds of
people, it demonstrates its own value
and does not need the endorsement of
the profession.
"Peruna has performed so many
wonderful cures in San Francisco that
I am convinced that it is a valuable
remedy. I have frequently adivsed its
use for women, as I find it insures
rigular and painless mensuration, cures
liinorrhcea, and ovarian troubles, and
luilds up the entire system. I also con
s'fier it one of the finest catarrh rem
edies I know of. I heartily endorse youi
medicine. M. C. Gee, M. D.
