He had worn whiskers so long that
even his wife had forgotten how he
looked without a beard. He decided
one day he’d shave them off, so fce
repaired to the barber shop. He took
one long last look at himself and told
the barber to go after them. Soon
his face was as smooth and clean as a
baby's. He didn’t even recognize him-
self. One of his friends was present
and he disclosed to him that he in-
tended to go home and have some fun
fooling his wife. This friend, being a
practical joker, and knowing the
man’s wife real well, called her up
A Severe Case of Grip.
Mr. W. S. Brown, R. F. D. 4, Box
82, Rogersville, Tenn., writes: "I
recommend Peruna to all sufferers of
catarrh or cough. In the year of
1909 I took a severe case of the la
grippe. I then took a bad cough.
Everybody thought I had consump-
tion. I had taken all kinds of cough
remedies, but got no relief.
"I then decided to try Peruna.
After taking five bottles my cough
stopped and my catarrh was cured.
Any one suffering with catarrh in any
form I will advise them to take Pe-
runa.’*

fussing around him and nestling up
close and having every appearance of
being happy and worried all at once.
“Now, sweetheart, tell me what made
you break* your pledged word to me
that you would never try to see me In
my own typme?” and she looked her
husband squarely in the eyes with an
inqulridg gaze. He seemed about to
choke; his &yes were bulging from
their sockets and his Adam’s apple,
was running up and down like a
monkey on a stick.
“Great Catfish!” he finally blurted
out, “Maria, What in the name of perdi
tion does thijs mean? Who is Arthur,?
’Have' :yoj} sweetheart' bj^ that
name?” Suddenly the enormity of his
wife’s perfidy came over him. He
jumped up, regardless of her presence,
swore some very horrible oaths and
threw several pieces of furniture
about the room. He raved, made de-
mands, threatened sudden death to
his wife and one unknown named
Arthur. Just as his wrath reached
the climax his wife burst forth in un-
restrained laughter, in which she was
joined by others. The portieres part-
ed, and his barber shop confidante,
together with his wife and another
lady, walked into the parlor and join-
ed in the merriment. His under jaw
sagged down, his eyes protruded as
he gazed helplessly from one to the
other.
Finally his wife recovered enough
from her merriment to go to him and
place both of her hands on his shonl-
ders. “Henry,” she said, “this game
of fooling folks is one that two can
plan at, and when Mr. Conway there
phoned me what you intended to do,
I couldn’t resist the temptation. Be-
sides you were about three times
ahead of me on this fooling game,
anyway.
“Another thing, Henry, you looked
so much better without your beard
that I felt like making love to you
just the minute I saw you.” After a
minute’s pause, “You are almost as
sweet and dear without your beard
as the mythical Arthur.” and she kiss-
ed him before the guests, and the
dove of peave hovered over the housc-
