His Medicine Recommended by a Doctor When a doctor uses a medicine him- Iself besides prescribing it to his patients, he must know that it has merit. This is what Dr. J. H. Wagner, a prom inent physician of Skate. Kentucky, has to say about Dr. Hartman's well-known remedy, PE-RU-NA: "I have used PE RU-NA myself for catarrh and have given It to others for catarrh, bloating after eating and other ailments. It has proved a success in all cases with old and young men and women. All speak well of PE-RU-NA. It is the best of all Dr. Wagner, out of the fullness of his own personal experience, for the good of all sick and suffering, recommends a medicine which he knows to be good.

Very likely some of them may once have been silly, and some naughty, but they do not show it, while all the good ness and wisdom of their youth has grown upon them. I should like to touch here, but barely touch, the thought of the dear and lovely lady which has all this time been in the back of my mind, as a supreme proof of the highest praise that could be given to aging woman, writes W. D. Howells in Harper's Magazine. She was of the finest mo dernity in her love of the best things in literature and life, and could no more err in taste than in truth or the beauty which Is one with it. She is gone now, who was so lately here In such perfection of mind and soul, that it seems as if she could never have left us who were privileged to share the bounty of her wisdom and grace.' Ouch!

A "marriage was arranged" in Lon don some time ago between Teddy, the blank bear from Canada, ami Daisy, the brown bear from Russia. The result is the first hybrid black brown bear cubs ever born in the zoo —they may even be unique, for na ture let alone produces no hybrids. They are a rich mahogany compro mise between their parents' colorings, and are doing splendidly. Along with the news comes word that the ugliest beast in the world, the Matamata tur tle, another emigrant from the new world, has been on a hunger strike ever since his arrival in London. At home he gets his food in a nasty, treach erous way. He has a shell which looks like a lump of rock on which weed grows freely. He keeps quiet and looks like a. pleasant stone for fish to rest under. Round his jaws are a number of long lumps which look like desirable worms. These are his ground bait, and even if the Matamata be asleep a nibble rouses him to snap up a meal. Talking Back to the Parson. "I fear, doctor, I am not good enough to go to church." "But, my dear madam, it isn't your goodness, it's your desire." "But I'm not good enough to have any desire." —Boston Transcript, A Hint. She —Did I hear anything fall? He —I think not. She —Excuse me. I thought you dropped a remark. last Night's Dreams —What They Mean DO YOU DREAM OF ODORS? DREAMS in which the sense of smell is present are of the rarest. Yet they do sometimes occur and that they have attracted attention for a long time is evidenced by the fact that interpretations of them have been handed down through the centuries by the mystics. They account it a most happy omen to dream that you smell perfumes, and to this rule there seems to be only one exception —the smell of rosemary in a dream is said to foretell mourning; though to see it and not smell it is good fortune. All other perfumes mean that you will be well spoken of by your acquaintances and will associate with people of intelli gence and standing: all your enter prises will turn out successfully. But let the married man whose wife dreams that she puts perfume on her head look to himself; there is going to be only one boss in that household and she is "it." Why the dream consciousness, which deals so readily and acutely with most other sensations, should be so chary of handling olfactory ones is puzzling —something for Professor Freud yet to explain. The scientists have endeavored to excite "smell dreams" by the application of odors to the sleeper's nostrils, but experi ments in this .direction have not usu ally been successful and Ellis cites an experiment made by Prof. W. S. Monroe upon twenty women students at the Westfield Normal school. A crushed clove was placed on the tongue for ten successive nights before going to bed. Of the 254 dreams re ported there were only eight "smell dreams," and only three of these actu ally involved cloves. The real "smell dream" occurs without any "objective" source, and it would seem to be a most difficult matter to force the dream con sciousness artificially to take cogr ! - zance of a sense of smell.

JBERAL INSURANCE TERMS Policies Lapsed or Canceled May b« Reinstated by Payment of Two Monthly Premiums —List of Benefici aries Considerably Enlarged. By JAMES P. HORNADAY. Washington. —No additional legisla tion relating to benefits due the men who served in the world world is to be undertaken immediately. This deci sion has been reached by the leaders in congress after many conferences with the officials of the war risk bu reau. It is believed the new ratings fixed by the Sweet law, now in effect, will stand through the coming fiscal year anyhow. The war risk bureau continues to interpret the legislation in the interest of the ex-service men in a liberal way; every doubt is cast in favor of the man who was willing to give his life for the cause for which the war was fought. In line with the liberal policy adopt ed, a new ruling relating to war in surance has just been made. Practi cally every one of the 4,000,000 service men took out insurance when they en tered the service. Many thousands have let their policies lapse since the armistice. The new ruling is for the benefit of these men. Under it war risk (term) insurance, regardless of how long it may have been lapsed or canceled, and regardless of how long the former service man may have been discharged, may be reinstated any ' time before July 1, 1920. The conditions are: (1) Two monthly premiums on the amount of insurance to be reinstated must accompany the application. (2) The applicant must be in as good health as at the date of dis charge, or at the expiration of the grace period, whichever is the later date, and so state in the application. Offer Is Very Liberal. The new ruling is a liberalization of war risk insurance since the passage of the Sweet bill, and is designed for the special benefit of service men who failed to reinstate their insurance prior to the new law, and who have been discharged more than eighteen months. Ex-service men may still reinstate their lapsed term insurance at any time within eighteen months follow ing the month of discharge by com plying with the same conditions. Within three months following the month of discharge, reinstatement may be made by simply remitting two months' premiums without a formal application or statement as to health. Reinstatement may also be made after eighteen months following dis charge, as follows: If the insurance has not been lapsed longer than three months, by complying with the con ditions outlined. From the fourth to the eleventh month, inclusive, after lapse, by complying with the same conditions, and in addition submitting a formal report of examination made by a reputable physician substantiat ing the statement of health to the satisfaction of the director of the bureau. Beneficiaries Group Enlarged In announcing the new ruling, Director Cholmeley-Jones emphasizes the fact that war risk (term) insur- or United States government (converted) life insurance may now be made payable to any of the follow ing new and enlarged group of beneficiaries: Parent, grandparent, step-parent, wife (or husband) child, step-child, adopted child, grandchild, brother, sister, half-brother, half-sister, brother through adoption, uncle, aunt, nephew, niece, brother-in-law, sister-in-law; persons who have stood in the relation of a parent to the insured for a period of one year or more prior to his enlist ment or induction, or the child or children of such persons; parent, grandparent, step-parent, or parent through adoption of the insured's wife (or husband). War risk (term) insurance may be converted Into United States govern ment life insurance, now or at any time within five years after the formal termination of the war by proclamation of the president. The problem of further bonuses lor the ex-service men is still with the legislators. Many of the congressmen are urging favorable action on some bonus bill at this session. The lead ers in senate and house have withheld so far, mainly because of the expense involved. There is much demand for the legislation proposed by Mr. Lane, the outgoing secretary of the interior, to develop and make available farm land for the ex-service men, but ap parently it. has been pigeonholed for the present. With Mr. Lane out of the cabinet potent influence in its behalf will be lacking. A Wood Turner.
