VOL. XXVIII. ; SAUGHT BY THE GRIP-- - RELEASED BY PE-RU-NA. la Grippe is Epidemic Catarrh. ‘T spares no class or nationality, The cultured and the ignorant, the aria- tocrat and the pauper, the masses and the classes are alike subject to la grippe, None are exempt—ail are liable, Grip is well named, The orginal French term, la grippe, has been short: ened by the busy American to read “grip.” Without intending to do so, a new word has been coined that exactly describes the case, As if some hideous giant with awful grip had clutched us in ats fatal clasp. Men, women, children, whole towns and cities are caught in the baneful grip of a terrible monster, Have you the grip? Or, rather, has the grip got you? If so, read the fol» lowing letters, These testimonials speak for thems sselves as to the eflicacy of Peruna in cases of la grippe or iis after-effects: A Preventive For Colds and La Grippe, Mrs, M, Woodruff, 2406 Central Ave,, Minneapolis, Minn,, writes: “I cannot praise your remedy too highly. I first tried it after having la grippe and for the lust two years T have used it as & preventive for cold and la grippe. “Asa tonic I also believe it to be ex- cellent. I never fail to recommend /Peruna to my friends, all of whom have used it with beneficial results,” A Rel. tive of Abraham Lincoin. Mr, Silas 8, Lincoln, who resides at 918 I street, N. W., Washington, D. C,, has the honor of being third cousin to Abraham Lincoln, He writes: “I had la grippe five times before using your medicine, Four years ago I began the use of Peruna, since which time I have not been troubled with that disease. “I can now do as much work at my desk as I ever could in my life. IL have gained more than ten pounds io weight.” Entirety Relleved by Peruna. Mrs, Jane Gift, Hebbardaville, Ohio, writes: “I think I would have been dead long ago ifit had not been for Peruna. Six years ago I had la grippe very bad. “The doctor came to see me every day, but I gradually grew worse. I told my husband I wanted to try Peruna, He went directly to the drug store and got a bottle of it. “I could see improvement in a very short time and was soon able to do my own work. I continued using it until 1 was entirely cured.” Address Dr. 8. B. Hartman, President | of The Hartman Sanitarium, Columbus, : Ohio, A Southern Judge Benefited. Judge Horatio J. Goss, Hartwell, Ga., writes: “Some five or six years ago I had a very severe spell of grip which left me with systemic catarrh, “A friend advised me to try your Peruns, which I did, and was imme- diately benefited. The third bottle com- pleted the cure.” For Catarrh and La Grippe. “Mr, Edgar L. Benn, San Antonio, Tex., member of the Crescent Comedy Co., writes: “I take pleasure in recommending Peruns for catarrh and the la grippe. Three bottles have fixed me up until I feel like a new man. “In fact, it has become the standing remedy of our company, which has been bothered with sickness most all winter, until we got hold of your valuablé remedy. . “You can always find a bottle in one of the members’ rooms, We cheerfully recommend it to the public.” i THE BATES NATIONAL BANK, BUTLER, MISSOURI. Grip Resulted In Catarrh. Miss Alice Bielke, Treasurer Young Women’s Society of the Lutheran Church, Menasha, Wis., writes: “I gratefully acknowledge the good that Peruna did me after I had been sick with la grippe which left me in a very weak and emaciated condition, with catarrhal trouble of the head and ears, “My mother suggested that I take it to build up my strength and rid myself of the troublesome catarrh, and it acted with wonderful speed. “T was able to resume my work inside of two months and I am in splendid health now.” One reason why Peruna has found permanent use in so many homes is that it contains no narcotics of ahy kind. Peruna is perfectly harmless. It can be used any length of time without acquiring a drug habit. Peruna does not produce temporary results,—it relieves permanently. ——- | batteries now in this country, and A Prairie Fire in Kansas. Junction City, Kas., March 5.— One of the worst prairie fires here in years swept over the Smoky Hill flats on the Fort Riley reservation last night and for a time threatened farm property that borders on the reservation. About 2,000 acres burned. Much of this area was cov- ered with grass. The Kaw river and broken ground on the north kept the fire from the main part of the reservation. Nothing could be done to stop the fire as it was carried across the flats by a high south wind. + Capital $50,000, _- - Surplus, $6,000. time we come from the village? Is our life clean in every way?

Details All Arranged For Throw- ing 25,000 Into Celestial Empire if Necessity Arises. | MANILA IS NATURAL CASE. Washington, March 6,—Detaiis of | the War Department's plans for pro- | tecting American lives and upholding | American prestige in China became} known, In case of a necessity, which to military minds seems now imminent, it is the intention of the Government to dispatch 20,000 regulars from the United States to join a Philippine force of 5,000 men for an expedition to the Chinese Empire. The troops for the Oriental service have been selected, the posts from which they will be taken are named in the plans, and the proper allot ment has been made among the va- nous branches of the service. Not only has this been done by the officers who have been working out the invasion scheme, but they have perfected plan for the distribution of the troops which will remain in the United States, so that they may be available for any necessity. The question of transportation has been considered, the location and state of repairs of every Government boat are known and preparations have been made to call the Pacific Mail liners into the service, The scheme of invasion, as at pres- ent contemplated, is with the view principally of a combination of the American forces with those of other foreign Powers, but a subsidiary ar- rangement made to meet the possi- bility that the United States will be forced to act alone contemplates a joint army and navy expedition to seize one of the greater coast towns in China. In addition to the infantrymen at least three regiments of calvary, dis- mounted, will join the expedition. To them will be added several light the siege battery, Captain J. P. Hains, commanding, stationed at Fort Leavenworth, Kan. The President is said to be consid- ering three men to lead this force. They are Generals Arthur MacArthur, Leonard Wood and Franklin Bell. In army circles it is believed General Bell will be chosen. les. Druggists are authorized to|- i’ — THE OLD HOMESTEADS.

Washington, March 5.—The House passed the army appropriation bill, also the Foraker bill providing for themarking of the graves of the Con- federate dead buried in the North. The discussion developed a unant- mous sentiment in favor of marking Confederate grifves, and as the bill had, during the morning session of the Military Committee, received fa vorable action, it was brought in by Mr. Prince and passed unanimously amid applause on both sides of the house. Points of order made to the pro- visions of the cable ship for the Atlantic Coast und for the ship for mine-planting on the Pacific Coast eliminated these provisions from the appropriation bill. The alleged Powder Trust came in for scoring in debate, and Demo- cratic favor to have the Government begin the manufacture of {ts own powder consumed some time, but met defeat, but on points of order and finally by direct vote. The army bill as passed carries something more than $69,000,000, Smith Gets Fourteen Years. Monett, Mo., March 6.—The jury in the Smith case, which has been un trial at Cassville, went out and re- turned with @ verdict of guilty, and assessed the defendant’s punishment at fourteen years in the penitentiary at hard labor. Smith’s crime was a dastardly one. His victim is a deaf and dumb girl. She was accidentally carried by Pierce City, her destination, where her father was to meet her and take was put off the train at Richey, where she meant to catch a train back to Pierce City. While at Richey she stepped into the drug store owned by Smith. Posing as @ friend, Smith promised to assist the girl to her train and to accompany her home. Instead of taking her to Pierce City, he brought her on to Monett and registered at a hotel as man and wife under assum- ed names. He kept the girl with him until morning. As soon as shecould she gave the alarm and Smith was an. | *trested, y the American people eat fast, eat unwhole- some foods and are shut up in dark and shops and illy ventilated provides us with all we only can take advantage , Sunshine and eat good ‘bles, also pro- iy oe re ted and stom- ak ae 35 Bg ae 4 eRe ae * i E F At his preliminary trial here Smith was bound over in the sum of $6,000.

The negro was her to her home at Stotts City, and | Why Denton Balked, Judge Denton fs quoted by the St. Louis Post-Dispatch as saying with regard to the Casey compromise: “In view of the gravity of the erlmes charged against Mr. Casey | did fot feel thas I could consist- ently take upon myself the respons!- billty of {mposing a short peniten- tiary sentence,” said the Judge. “Four indictments are pending here against Mr. Casey. The attorneys desired to have me fix a sentence of five years on each—that is, a concur: rent sentence that would make the total punishment only five years. “I did not feel that I had a right to take such power into my hands. “If the prosecuting authorities had been anxious to extend clemency to Mr. Casey, it would have been an easy matter for them to haveassum- ed the responsibility by entering a nolle pros on three of the four indict- ments pending. The sentence could have been imposed only on the re- maining indictment. “I have no feeling whatever in this matter. Surely I have noue against Mr. Casey. I thought a trial of the charges against him was proper. “Asto any facts he might place the State in possession of in view of re- celving only a five year sentence, [ knew absolutely nothing. At any! rate I felt there was no need to rush the matter.” To Be Useful in Politics. New York, March 5.—“Associate withthe great mase of American peo- ple if you wisi to become useful in political life,” is the advice given to the Yale Good Government club by Secretary Taft in a letter, which in part is as follows: In many respects the college grad- uate has as much to learn from the | working man and from the business man who has noé received a college education as they have from him. It cannot but broaden his sympathies and make him know its needs with much more certainty {f he associates with those who make up the large body of our American citizens. Hé will cease by such associations to as- sume the attitude of a dilettante closet critic and will understand the motives and the feelings of the great mass of American people. é Negro Brute is Hanged.
