MISS ANNIE CATRON.
CATARRH MADE LIFE
A BURDEN TO ME.
MISS ANNIE CA'l'KON, 9L>7 Main
•St., Cincinnati, Ohio, writes:
“As I have found Peruna a blessing
for a severe case of catarrh of the head
and throat which I suffered from for a
number of years, I am only too pleased
to give it my personal endorsement.
“Catarrh, such as I suffered from,
made life a burden to me, my breath
was offensive, stomach bud, and my
head stopped up so that I was usually
troubled with a headache, and although
I tried many so-called remedies, noth
ing gave me permanent relief. 1 was
rather discouraged with all medicines
When Peruna was suggested to me.
“However, I did buy a bottle, and be
fore that was finished there was a
marked change in my condition. Much
encouraged 1 kept on until I w as com
pletely cured in a month’s time, and I
find that my general health is also ex
cellent.”
People who prefer solid medicines
should try Peruna tablets. Each tablet
represents one average dose of Peruna.

LEADER IN INSURANCE REFORM.
Whole Country Benefited by Action
of Gov. Johnson.
Having had some valuable experi
ence in re organizing a powerful Minne
sota insurance company, Gov. John
son was well prepared to deal with
the emergency which arose when the
corruption and extravagance of the
management of the great national life
insurance companies was revealed in
1905. In November of that year, he
wrote a letter to President Roosevelt,
which placed h!m in the front rank of
national leaders. In this letter the
governor suggested a conference of
governors and attorney generals to be
called by the president at Chicago.
The conference was held in the follow
ing February and Govt Johnson, as its
chairman and dominant figure, named
the famous “committee of fifteen."
whose recommendations were em
bodied in the law In Minnesota and
in about a dozen other states.
While the momentous decision re
cently given by the supreme court in
similar cases coming up from North
Carolina and Minnesota may have the
effect of invalidating some of the rail
way legislation secured by Oov. John
son in Minnesota, the fact remains that
he has done what he set out to do and
secured the enactment of popular and
beneficent legislation. If, as now
seems probable, the epoch-making de
cision of the court in large measure
transfers railway legislation from the
stateR to the national legislature, it be
comes of particular significance that
one of the earliest acts of Gov. John
son's career as a member of the Min
nesota legislature was the introduc- j
tkm of a memorial to congress to ex
tend the powers of the Interstate com
merce commhsion, a memorial which I
ante dated the extension of those pow
ers by some four years.

THE CALAMITY HOWLER
A Few Pertinent Remarks in Regard
to the Chronic Kicker
Did you ever see one? Did you
ever hear one? He may be known by
a neeuliar expresion of the face, as if
in agony: knitted brow, sullen look of
the eye and by his speech. He howls
if it is dry and he howls if it is wet.
He howls if it is hot and he howls if it
is cold. He howls if he is rich and he
howls if he is poor. He howls if lie is
well and he howls if he is sick. He
howls by day and he howls by night.
He howls about taxes and he howls
about schools. He howls ohout the
church and he howls if there is no
church. He howls about the preacher
and he howls if there is no preacher.
He howls about paying the preacher
and he howls if there is no preacher to
pay. He has a small soul and makes
the most fuss about saving it. He is
a public calamity, a private nuisance,
a chronic grumbler, and a constant
kicker. He thinks his feet were made
expressly to kick with and tlie chief
mission of his tongue is to complain,
and find fault. When two of these
paragons of jterfection (?) meet, the
fur Hies high and falls around where
they fought, bled and died for days,
weeks, months and years.
They do not pick each other, but
men, women, churches, schools and
preachers, as a rule, are their game
and my! what a meal they do have!
They play the dog in the manger act
—won’t eat the hay themselves nor let
the cattle eat it. They are the ally of j
the first-class gossip. Nothing escapes i
them, the rottenest moral condition of
things is familiar to them and they
relish it like a buzzard does a dead
horse's eyes.
Did you ever sec one? Did you ever
hear one? Do you know any of the
family? Are you any kin to them?
Are you the real fellow? If so, change
up: go and get some one to kick you
till you are sore.
Be a man or a brute:_whitfh? They
are not all men. some women among
them. Who will help to save all such
from such agony of heart and life?
OMEN OF GOOD LUCK
It is considered an omen of good
luck to find a four-leaf clover and if
there is anything in such omens Mrs.
! Geo. F. Grosser will certainly l>o very
lucky the balance of h*r life. While
out digging potatoes for dinner last
Sunday she found nineteen four-leaf
clovers, one with live leaves and an
other with six leaves. Whe can l>eat
it?
