PE-RU-NA CURES CATARRH
OF KIDNEYS EVERY TIME.
S;'
DANGEROUS KIDNEY DISEASES CURED
Pe-ru-na Creating a Jiational Sensation in the Cure
of Chronic Ailments of the Kidneys.
Major T. H. Mars, of the First Wiscon
sin Cavalry regiment, writes from 1425
Dunning street,Chicago, 111., the follow
ing letter:
“For years I suffered with catarrh of
the kidneys contracted In the army.
Medicine did not help me any until a
comrade who had been helped by Pe
runa advised me to try It. I bought
some at once, and soon found blessed
j-ellef. I kept taking It four months,
and am now well and strong and feel
better than / have done for the past
twenty years, thanks to Peruna."—
T. H. Mars.
Mr. John Vance, of Hartford City,
Ind.,says: “My kidnej'trouble is much
better. , I have improved so much that
everybody wants to know what medi
cine I am using. I recommend Peruna
to everybody and some have commenced
to use it. The folks ail say that if Dr.
Hartman's medicine cures me it must be
great.”—John Vance.
Mr. J. Brake, of Petrolea, Ontario,
Canada, writes: “ Four years ago I
bad a severe attack of Bright's dis
ease, which brought me so low the
■ doctor said nothing more could be
done for me. 1 began to take Peruna
and Manalin, and In three months l
was a well man, and have continued
so ever since.”-—J. Brake.
At the appearance of the first symptom
of k i d n ey
trouble, Pe
runa should
be taken.
Thisremedy
strik es at
once the
very root of
the disease.
It at once re
lieves the ca
tarrhal kid
neys of the
stagnant
blood, pre
venting
the escape of serum from the blood.
Peruna stimulates the kidneys to
excrete from the blood the accumu
lating poison, and thus prevents the con
vulsions which are sure to follow if the
poisons are allowed to remain. It gives
great vigor to the heart's action and di
gestive system, both of which are apt to
fail rapidly in this disease.
. Peruna cures catarrh of the kidneys
simply because it cures catarrh wher
ever located.
If you do not derive prompt and sat
isfactory resultsfrom the use of Peruna,
write at once to Dr. Hartman, giving a
full statement of your case and he will
be pleased to give you his valuable ad
vice gratis.

A Most Dastardly Crime Committed
Within a Few Miles of
Little Rock.
VICTIM FOUGHT DESPERATELY FOR LIFE
Two Saapncts Armttil, but Eimptd After
Wounding an Officer—People Within s
Radius of Fifty Miles on Lookout for
the Fiend—Murdered Girl Member of
Prominent Family.
Miss Florence Shillcutt, aged 19
years, was found dead with her throat
cut near the home of her father, five
miles from Little Rock. October 29.
Her body was terribly mutilated, and
the surroundings showed that she had
a desperate struggle with her fiendish
murderer. Miss Shillcutt, whose fam
ily is one of the oldest and most high
ly respected in Pulaski county, left
her home about 9 o’clock and went
to the home of her uncle, Mr. Sulli
van, on an errand. She was accom
panied by a little sister, who did not
return with her when she started
home. At a point remote from any
house the brute attacked his victim.
She fought desperately and the strug
gle seems to have been carried on in
a running battle, but her strength was
not equal to the brute force of her as
sailant, and her body was found about
150 yards from the spot where she was
first assaulted. It was lying face
downward in a pool of blood, the cloth
ing being badly disarranged and scarce
ly a spot was not covered with blood.
An examination disclosed the fact that
there had been no criminal assault.
The father and uncle of the dead girl
discovered the body a few hours after
the awful crime was committed. Mr.
Shillcutt and Mr. Sullivan were hunt
ing quail and came across the body ac
cidentally in an old field near the road
where she was first attacked. There
were evidences in the road and sev
eral places in the field that a terrible
struggle for life had been made by
Miss Shillcutt. There were footmarks
of a girl and a man. The latter’s track
indicated that he wore about a number
eight shoe, square cut heel, and of a
somewhat better make than is usually
worn by a farmer or negro when at
work. From the road the tracks led
to a point about fifteen steps into the
old field. Here had evidently occurred
another struggle and a few splotches
of blood were found on the grass and
weeds. About fifty yards further to
ward the place where the body lay,
was the evidence of another struggle
even fiercer than the other two. »->.
considerable pool of bloou was found
on the ground. Then, some distance
away, was a place where the girl
seemed to have fallen. From that
place to where the body was found by
the father and uncle was a track which
seemed to indicate that the human
fiend had dragged his victim by the
heels and probably frightened out of
his wits by his deed, had made but
little effort to conceal the body. The
clothing of the young woman was bad
ly disarranged, but not torn. Her
skirt, waist, back and front, were cov
ered with her life blood. Besides the
two wounds on either side of the neck,
about half way between the ear and
shoulder, and bruises about the body,
was one in the right hand, where a
pocket knife had been thrust entirely
through, probably in one of the several
struggles which took place before un
consciousness came. Several suspects
were arrested, among them a young
man named Earl Knight, who had been
keeping company with Miss Shillcutt,
but he had little trouble in proving his
innocence. Several others have been
arrested. The news of the awful crime
caused the greatest excitement.
Officers Henry Nowlin and Josh
Harp arrested two negro suspects at
a railroad camp near Palarm. and
while searching them one of the pris
oners shot Nowlin in the foot and both
escaped. It is believed the negro who
shot Nowlin is either the murderer of
Miss Shillcutt or is guilty of some
other crime. His clothing was torn
in certain places, and the officers think
they detected blood stains on his shirt.
Of this, however, they are not sure,
as they were prevented from making
a close examination. Posses are scour
ing the woods in every direction, and
the two parties who escaped from Now
lin and Harp can hardly get away.
When the news of the shooting reached
Little Rock crowds began to gather,
armed with pistols and Winchesters,
with the determination to lynch the
guilty party is brought to the city.

\o« So Very Crazy.
An Emporia (Kan.) sportsman was ont
gunning a few days ago, the Gazette says,
and happened to go by the poor farm. One
af the crazy men they keep out there saw
him and began asking him questions. “What
have you killed?” asked the crazy fellow.
The Emporia man said he had a meadowlark
and two doves. “What did you pay for that
gun?” “Sixty dollars.” “How much is the
dog worth?” “Twenty-five dollars.” "An
$85 hunting outfit to kill 25 cents’ worth of
game! They keep me locked up in here be
cause they say I’m crazy, and they let you
run loose. It isn’t fair,” said the crazy man.
Puzzled the Expert.
“There is a strange body i* your
aesophagus,” said the expert manipulator
of t tie X-rays.
“Yes,” said the subject. “I have felt
