Try them. They are HUNTER'S FAVORITE, A PROBLEM OF 1873. Attacked on All Sides, Could John D. Rockefeller Defend His Position? Ida M. Tarbell in April McClure's: Controlling fully 90 per cent, of the re fining interests of the country, controll ing the entire pipe line, or oil-gathering system, recognized by the four great trunk lines as the autocrat of the busi ness, and able to bring them to his wishes by merely expressing them, able to raise the oil market to an unnatural figure and hold it there for six months, John D. Rockefeller, by the end of 1878, certainly had reason to be proud of his four years' work. The "good of the oil business' was in his judgment worked out. There were people, however, who claimed that it was the good of Mr. Rockefeller, not of the oil business, that had been achieved and these people—"people- with a pri vate grievance," mossbacks naturally left in the lurch by the progress of this rapidly developing trade," the Stand ard oliicials described them—at the news of the collapse of the Empire Transportation company began an on slaught on his creation through the press?, through commercial combina tions, through the courts and legisla tures, which in its vigor and bitterness rivaled the oil war of 1S72. It was now to be seen whether Mr. Rockefeller was as great in defensive as he was in of fensive operations. We've All Heard Him. Cincinnati Commercial Tribune: "That man," remarked Smithers, "makes a hundred speeches from the platform every day." "Some great political leader?" asked Smuthers. "No," replied Smithers, "street car conductor. He says 'Move up forward, please!' every time any one gets on his car." IN CONVENTION. Teachers Learn Something Not in the Class Books. A number of young women attending teachers' convention at Oklahoma City some time ago learned a valuable lesson iu hygiene through a sister teacher who says: "About a year ago I had my first attack of .poor health and it seemed a terrible thing to me. for I had always been so well and strong. My stomach distressed me terribly it seemed like wns raw, especially after breakfast, and it would*burn and hurt me so I could not rest. I was soon convii jed that it was caused by coffee drinking and at the request of a friend I gave up coffee and began to use Postum Coffee. "The change in njy condition was scynething marvelous. I had actually k'iven up teaching because doctors were unable to help my stomach trouble, but since I quit coffee anI used Postum my troubles have disappeared and I have 'gone to teaching again. "Some time ago I attended a conven tion at Oklahoma City and determined to have Postum at my boarding house where there were eight other teachers, four of them suffering from coffee sick ness. My landl&dy did not make the Postum right, but I showed her how and we all found it delicious. We all drank it the rest of the time we were there and the young ladies in question felt much better and declnced that their heads were much clearer for study and their general health much improved. I have their names if you care for them." Names furnished by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. fax- iV^ HUNT FOR CENTURY OLD RUM. Amos Patten's Descendants to Search for a Buried Jug. New York Sun: During the fore noon of July 4, 1803, Amos Patten of Bangor climbed to the top of Mt. Ka tahdln, accompanied by two guides. They were the first two white men who ever set foot upon the summit of Maine's highest mountain. In his diary of the trip Mr. Patten records that he gave three cheers for the United States of America, three more for the American eagle and then cried "Death to all traitors!" three times. After these ceremonies he sang "Yankee Doodle" in a loud, clear voice, and when he had finished the patriotic exercises of the day he and his guides took "two stiff horns of new rum, en graved our names on a sheet of lead, wrapped the same about a gallon jug of rum and buried both under a cat spruce tree on the very top." At his death the patriotic mountain climber left an estate valued at $75,000 and a family of five sons, all of whom made repeated trips to the mountain to find the hidden record and the aging rum, which was doing no good to any body. On July 4, 1853, sixteen Pattens stood on the mountain top ana sang "Yankee Doodle," "Hall Columbia" and "The Star Spangled Banner." They also camped among the trees and made a thorough search for the jug of rum, which was fifty years of age and no doubt very mellow, but their labors were without reward: Twenty-five years later, on July 4, 1878, twenty-three Pattens, all of whom were descendants of Amos, toiled up the side of Mt. Katahdin and spent two days in camp above the hardwood line. They repeated all the old songs with which the mountain was familiar and added "Rally 'Round the Flag," "Marching Through Georgia," and sev eral others left over from the civil war, but though they looked under every cat spruce tree on a five-acre lot at the summit the 75-year-old rum was not discovered. As 1903 is the 100th anniversary of the first ascent of the mountain, the descendants of Amos Patten will make still another trial to unearth the elu sive rum, and will pass a week on the summit, singing patriotic hymns, mak ing speeches and digging for the jug of liquor which is more precious than gold. There are forty-two male descend ants of Amos Patten between the ages of 14 and 70, and of these more than thirty have pledged themselves to ac company the party. A fife and drum corps will go along and if that century old rum can be found, they are resolved to know Just "how It tastes. One for the Shopwalker. Tit-Bits: A certain shopwalker in a large establishment is noted for his se verity to those under him in business. One day he approached a junior as sistant, from whose counter a lady had just moved away. "You let that lady go out without maklng'a purchase?" he asked severely. "Yes, sir. I "Exactly. I saw that, In spite of all the question she put to you, you rarely answered her, and.never attempted to get what she wanted." "Well, but "I shall report your carelessness." "Well, I hadn't what she wanted." "What was that?" "Half a crown. She's a book can vasser, getting subscriptions to the 'Life of Moses.' And the shopwalker retired crest fallen. TRADE MARK. Tha old, invariable virtue of makes it the king cure for and Bruises Price. 25c. and 50c Simple Table Decorations. New York Press: The fashion of table decorations changes often, and at present red Is lri the ascendant. Table decorations are more simple these days than ever be fore. It Is not so many years ago that the center of a table was a forest Inhabited by souvenirs or a mill pond of real wa ter. About five years ago it was fash ionable to have all these outlandish ef fects, and a hostess was perplexed sorely to devise some novel scheme of decora tion. To Mrs. Hermann Oelrichs Is at tributed credit for the first step toward simplicity. When she gave an elaborate betrothal breakfast for her sister, now Mrs. Willie K. VanderbUt, jr., It was ex pected that the table would be a perfect jungle. Instead there was an artistic scattering of ferns on the cloth, and in the middle there was a silver-bowl of roses. After that came the vogue of candles, and hostesses vied with one another In displaying costly candelabra. The Astors used candle-bearers of gold. But now all Is changed and the fewer of these gew gaws the better. A mere clump of stunted palms with trellises of leaves or smllax will suffice for the most pretentious din ner. Tiny Japanese plants are in good taste, and the scarlet poinsetta is In high favor. Red is the approved color. At the Gerry muslcale the lights in the" conser vatory were shaded with red, and red roses were everywhere. At the Astor ball, except for the ball room in lilies and orchids, there were displays of American Beauty and Meteor roses exclusively. In Washington, Lady Herbert, wife of tha British ambassador, Confines her decora tions to poinsettas, but Mrs. Roosevelt la an exceptionr and clings to pink roses and carnations. The Merry Magnate.

Women Made Strong and Happy Mothers. Catarrh of the Pelvic Organs Is a Fre quent Cause of Barrenness. Pe-ru-na Eradicates Catarrh From the System. TO the woman of ancient Israel not to become a mother was regarded a& the greatest of eartlily calamities, ro become a mother—more especially the mother of a strong, healthy boy— «ras the height of glory for the faithful woman of the good old Bible days. Even now, when maternity is not es teemed as of yore, the mother of healthy children,is an object of admiration, and lometimes envy, by her neighbors. As compared with ancient peoples, the average American woman has a low ap reciatioa of motherhood. There are, owever, a great many exceptions to this statement. The accompanying letters from grate ful women who nave been made strong, healthy and happy mothers need no add ed word, of ours to make them con vincing. Catarrh had weakened and Impaired their entire systems. Peruna made them sound and well. Mrs. L. M. Griffith, Arco, Idaho, writes: "Your medicine did me a wonderful amount of good. It cured me of barren ness. I am 30 years old and never had any children but since beginning your medicine I gave birth to a 10-pound baby girl. She is now six months old and weighs 25 pounds. My friends were, all surprised. Some would not believe it until they came to see me. "My husband says he never saw such a change in any one as there was in me after I had taken three or four bottles of Peruna. I am stronger than I have been sin.ee I was quite young.. God bless you and your medicine forever. I cannot tell you all. My letter is too long already but I will say Peruna cured ine. I never saw or heard of anything half so good. I can never thank you enough for your kindness. In cases of la grippe it works like a charm. It cured my baby when other medicines failed. She was real bad with 'a grippe."—Mrs. L. M. Griffith.

The greatest passion in the world Is vanity the most powerful weapon flat tery. There Is no age at which a woman's heart will not melt to the man who smiles upon her. Beware of the man who approaches you with, the promise that he has come to do you a favor. It Is the little things that tell. A man who is facing bankruptcy and dishonor with a courageous smile will .fly into hysterics when he can't get his collar buttoned. There will be some way of under standing women when someone can ex plain how a woman will think a mat inee hero is like a god, and yet have her blood run cold at the thought of her son being like him.

"Finally I concluded that I would make a last trial. So my husband got me a bottle of Peruna and Manalin. I commenced taking them according to directions. That was two years ago.
