Mrs. earnest iiociimuth, 1-01
Maple St., Des Moines, Iowa,
writes: “Two years ago our little boy,
Herman, was taken down with scarlet
lever. Ho took cold with it, and in
stead of the eruptions coming to tlie
surface they affected his lungs and
stomach. .For weeks we watched by
his bedside, hardly expecting him tc
live from one hour to the next.
“Finally he became a little better and
was able to sit up. Then he commenced
to cough, and in spite of everything wc
could do he seemed to get worse all tlic
time. His coughing spells would last
until ho was completely exhausted, and
his lungs hurt him a great deal. Every
body thought he had consumption.
“One day, while at the drug store, my
husband saw a Pcn/na almanac and
brought it home. We read in it a per
fect description of his case and we
thought we would try Peruna. We
bought a bottle, quit everything else,
and began giving him Peruna.
“Bv the time two-thirds of the bottle
was used the cough had almost gone.
After he had taken two bottles he was
perfectly7 cured. He lias not seen a sick 1
day since and is a hearty, healthy hoy.
“We shall always praise Peruna, for
It saved our boy’s life.”

BE CAREFUL.
The time for the politicians t< '
swarm has arrived and they have be
gun to lay siege on the headquarters
of the Farmers’ Union. Some of the
State officials are getting letters ask- ;
ing them to use their best efforts to
pecure the endorsement by the Union
of certain candidates.
Golly! Aren’t the politicians blind? |
We have been telling them all the
time that the Farmers’ Union would
not endorse any man for any political
office, and that if any candidate
wanted the support of the members
of the Farmers’ Union, he had belter
not ask the endorsement of the organ- j
ization. The fact that he asked the j
organization to endrose him will cause
hundreds of our members to vote
against him. In other words, the boys
are determined to make the people
understand that the Farmers’ Union
will not go Into politics.
The old politician can not beg, per- ;
suade, scare or bulldoze us from our
position. There are a few men who
will be candidates for office that no
doubt the masses of the Farmers'
Union members will be favorable to.
but if such a man intimates that he
wants the endorsement of the Farm
ers’ Union, he will go down the pike
with the blackest eye ever toted by
a political pugilist.—Union News.

DR. PASCOE'S SPEECH
(Continued from page 1)
I have taken my last glass of rum.
After interpreting the above lieauti
ful lines it leaves us in no doubt as to
the cause leading to his downfall.
Now. as I before stated, intemperance
does not alone consist of drinking too
much alcohol or whiskey, but may
come from looking, talking or acting
in such a manner as to convey to others
a disrespectful and unmanly person.
An unknown author wrote and pinned
to a skeleton in a museum in the city
of London the very striking and in
quiringly lines, entitled “Lines on a
Skeleton,“ which if some little girl
will come upon the stage and assist
me in order to make them more im
pressive, I will render to you. To
thoroughly appreciate the efforts put
forth by this unknown poet, it will lie
better for the time being to trespass
upon this little girl and imagine her a
skeleton, the thing I assure you she
is at this time very much unlike:
Behold this ruin! ’Twas a skull once
of etherial spirit full,
This narrow cell was life's retreat
This space was thought’s mysterious
seat
\v nat Beauteous pictures niledtms spot,
What dreams of pleasure Ion# forgot:
Nor love nor joy nor hope nor fear
Have left one trace of record here.
Beneath this mouldering canopy once
shone.
The bright and busy eye
But start not at the dismal void.
If social love that eye employed.
If with no lawless fire it gleamed.
But through the dews of kindness
beamed:
That eye shall lie forever bright
When stars and sun have lost their
light.
Within this silent cavern hung
The ready, swift and tuneful tongue.
If it from lying words refrained
And where it could not praise was
chained.
If hold in virtue’s cause it spoke
Yet gentle concord never broke.
That tuneful tongue shall plead for thee
When death unveils eternity.
Say did these lingers delve the mind
Or with the envied rubies shine:
To hew the rock or wear the gem,
Can nothing now avail to them.
But if the page of truth they sought
Or comfort to a mourner brought:
These hands a richer meed may claim.
Than all that waits on wealth or fame.
Avails it little whether bare or shod
These feet the path of duty trod,
If from the bowers of joy they fled
To soothe afflictions humble lied:
These feet with Angels wings '.hall vie
And tread the palace of the sky."
Ladies and gentlemen 1 wish 1 were
able with beautiful language anil the
powers of an orator to present to you
tonight my feelings and emotions after
having forgotten a great many things i
intended saying and feeling very much
like the negro who said there is no
harm to run when you are scared, l
now offer my apologies for having
trespassed upon your kindness and
attention. I thank you very much.
