MISS JULIA MARLOWE.
“/ am glad to write my endorse
ment of the great remedy, Peruna. I
do so most heartily. ’’--Julia Marlowe.
Any remedy that benefits digestion
strengthens the nerves.
The nerve centers require nutrition.
If the digestion is impaired, the nerve
centers become anemic, and nervous
debility is the result.
« Peruna is not a nervine nor a l
♦ stimulant. It benefits the nerves *
4 by benefiting digestion.
Peruna frees the stomach of ca
tarrhal congestions and normal diges
tion is the result.
In other words. Peruna goes to the
bottom of the whole difficulty, when
the disagreeable symptoms disappear.
Mrs. J. C. Jamison, Wallace, Cal.,
writes:
“I was troubled with my stomach
for six years. Was treated by three
doctors. They said that I had nervous
dyspepsia. I was put on a liquid diet
for three months.
“I improved under the treatment,
but as soon as I stopped taking the
medicine, I got bad again.
“I saw a testimonial of a man whose
case was similar to mine being cured
by Peruna, so I thought I would give it
a trial.
“I procured a bottle at once and
commenced taking it. I have taken
several bottles and am entirely cured."

Why He Married Again.
An Ohio lawyer tells of a client of
his—a German farmer, a hard-work
ing, plain, blunt man who lost his wife
not long ago. The lawyer had sought
him out to express his sympathy; but
to his consternation the Teuton la
conically observed:
"But 1 am again married."
“You don't tell me!” exclaimed the
legal light. “Why it has been but a
week or two since you buried your
wife!”
“Dot's so, my frent; but she is as
dead as effer she vill be."—Lippin
cott's.
Using the Telephone.
It was the first time she had ever
used a telephone and the drug clerk
detected the fact by the nervous way
in which she held the receiver.
“Dear me.” she exclaimed, timidly,
“why are all those sievelike holes in
the mouthpiece?”
“They are there for a purpose,” re
plied the drug clerk, solemnly.
“What purpose?”
“Why, .so you can strain your voice.”
And she was so embarrassed she
forgot the number she was to call up.
BUILT UP
Right Food Gives Strength and Brain
Power.
The natural elements of wheat and
barley, including the phosphate of pot
ash, are found in Grape-N'uts, and that
is why persons who are run down from
improper food pick up rapidly on
Grape Nuts.
“My system was run down by exces
sive night work,” writes a N. Y. man,
“in spite of a liberal supply of ordi
nary food.
“After using Grape-Nuts I noticed
improvement at once, in strength, and
nerve and brain power.
"This food seemed to lift me up and
stay with me for better exertion, with
less fatigue. My weight increased I!0
lbs. with vigor and comfort in propor
tion.
“When traveling I always carry the
food with me to insure having it.”

*Drys” Undecided As To Their Next
Move.
Rev. W. T. Amis of Hot Springs has
stated that the anti-saloon forces of
Arkansas had not definitely decided
yet as to what they would ask of the
next stRte legislature. He declared,
however, that it was very probable
that those forces would ask the legis
lature for state-wide prohibition,
either by statutory or constitutional
provision. .Mr. Amis stated that the
plank inserted in the Democratic plat
form, was, in a way, satisfactory, but
intimated that the anti-saloon forces
would advocate more prompt action
than suggested in the Democratic plat
form.

THOUSAND MEN IN THE BENT
Race War Tha4. Ccvered Two Coun
ties—Big Posse Blocked by Wash
out and Could Not Reach Fight.
El Reno, Okla.—Late Saturday night
a telephone message was received
from Hitchcock, Okla., reporting that
the posse from Blaine had run down
Alf Hunter, the negro multimurderer
from Arkansas, and his negro band
who slew Sheriff Garrison Friday, and
that the posse and negroes engaged in
a battle near Cleo Springs, in which
six whites and a dozen negroes were
killed, including Alf Hunter, who is
also known as Kingsbury. About 1,000
armed whites were in the man hunt,
which covered Alfalfa and Custer
counties, and was the biggest race war
in Oklahoma’s recent history.
The big posse on a special train
from Oklahoma City wras blocked by
the flood south of Canadian river and
could not participate in the battle.
Sheriff McArthur of Blaine led the
whites in the Cleo Springs battle.
On account of a washout between
Geary and Watonga, a handcar had to
be used to convey the body of Sheriff
Garrison to Geary. •
Bob Davis, Ed Brown, George Clari
ty and John Spears, negroes are in
jail here. They are accused of aid
ing Alf Hunter to escape front this
city, and it was through these men
that Hunter w:as located by Sheriff
Garrison Friday morning. It is said
that they purchased ammunition,
which was taken to Hunter after he
left this city.
A report received Saturday night
from Officer Warden stated that cloth
ing discarded by Alf Hunter, showing
holes in the left sleeve, had been
found north of Watonga that after
noon.
One of Alf Hunter’s companions
was arrested Saturday near Watonga
and is in jail at that place under a
strong guard. He refuses to give his
name or make a statement.
It was learned that Sheriff Garri
son had captured Alf Hunter, after
driving him from a haystack.’ The
negro broke away and jumped behind
a stump. Garrison and the negro fired
simultaneously. The latter’s aim was
true, and a bullet severed the officer’s
jugular vein, causing instant death.
The negro then shot Officer Sanders
and drove Officer Warden to cover.
Examination of the records in the
secretary of state's office revealed the
fact that a reward was offered in 1906
for the capture and conviction of
Alf Hunter, the negro who is now
wanted in Oklahoma, who was then
charged with the murder of a man by
the name of Thornton in Perry county,
it being alleged that the murder oc
curred in 1905.
Tries to Move County Seat.
Muskogee, Okla.—Following the an
nouncement Saturday that the gover
nor had signed the proclamation mak
ing Ohecotah the county seat of Mc
Intosh county, Harry Beeler of Che
cotah chartered a special train and
left here at 6 o’clock for Eufala, 34
miles south of here, to move the rec
ords of the county to Checotah before
the citizens of Eufala could get out
an injunction preventing it. Beeler
stopped at Checotah, picking up a doz
en men. He returned to Muskogee
late Saturday night after an unsuc
cessful trip. The officers refused to
move to Checotah without official noti
fication.
Negro Bandit Kills a Man.
Chattanooga, Tenn.—As Joseph
Knight, a well-known business man,
and Miss Sadie Poole were driving
on Rossville pike, just out of the city
limits, shortly after dark Saturday,
they were attacked by three masked
negroes, who attempted to hold them
up. Knight drew a revolver and at
tempted to defend himself,
when one of the negroes opened
fire and killed Knight instantly. Sev
eral shots were fired at the girl, one
cf them entering her thigh. Almost
immediately a posse of officers and
armed citizens started after the mask
ed men.
Dies From Kerosene Burns.
Houston, Tex.—Minnie Holverton,
14 years old, died at Houston Heights
Saturday from burns received Friday
by the explosion of a kerosene can.
The mother of the child, Mrs. H. A.
Holverton, was also badly burned, but
will recover. The accident occurred
while the child was trying to start a
fire in a cook stove.
Eight-Hour Law Is Invalid.
Jefferson City, Mo.—The Supreme
Court of Missouri in an opinion ren
dered by Judge Lamm Saturday decid
ed the eight-hour train dispatchers’
law, passed by the last legislature, to
be unconstitutional.
York, Pa.—Lucas Zeigler, the two
year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. George
Zeigler of Mount Royal, swallowed a
rosebud Saturday and before medical
aid could arrive was choked to death
by it.
Wanted Source of Supply.
Aunt Tillie, cook in a Georgia house
hold, took hotfie a dish of macaroni
from the "white folks" table for her
own family, and after assuring them
that it was good induced her chil
dren to eat it. The next morning she
discovered two of the children out in
the yard turning over stones and
boards and scratching vigorously in
the earth. “Hyah, you!” she called.
'What you all doin’ out dah?” "We

Levi P. Brockway, S. Second Ave.,
Anoka, Minn., says: “After lying
for five months in a
hospital I was dis
charged as incur
able, and given only
six months to live.
My heart was affect
ed, I had smother

times fell uncon
scious. I got so I

arms, my eyesight
was impaired and
the kidney secretions were badly dis
ordered. I was completely worn out

TORTURED SIX MONTHS
By Terrible Itching Eczema—Baby’s
Suffering Was Terrible — Soon
Entirely Cured by Cuticura.
"Eczema appeared on my son’s face.
We went to a doctor who treated him
for three months. Then he was so bad
that his face and head were nothing
but one sore and his ears looked as if
they were going to fall off, so we tried
another doctor for four months, the
baby never getting any better. His
hand and legs had big sores on them
and the poor little fellow suffered so
terribly that he could not sleep. After
he had suffered six months we tried
a set of the Cuticura Remedies and
the first treatment let him sleep and
rest well; in one week the sores were
gone and in two months he had a clear
face. Now he is two years and has
never had eczema again. Mrs. Louis
Leek, R. F. D. 3, San Antonio, Tex.,

It was the day of the ball game, and
Willie, the oflRce-bov, approached the

“Makes It Go Way.”
We simply can't do without it. We

“Where's the Lightning Oil?” The
echo of all our afflictions is “Where's

that makes the pain' go way. Sincerely

Kangaroo as a Food.
Twenty or 30 years ago the back
country squatters, in order to destroy
kangaroos, used to dig huge pits at
the corners of their paddocks, running
yards of calico along their wire fences
and then drive the kangaroos into the
pits, clubbing and shooting them. In
those days kangaroo skins were of no
value; now that they are almost ex
tinct, there is a great demand for
them. The flesh of a young kangaroo
is by no means) to be despised, and
kangaroo tail sotip is a delicacy now
hardly to be obtained.

wonderful. I regard it as a house
