Catarrh Twenty-five Years Had a Bad Cough, Miss Sophia Kittlesen, Evanston, Il, writes: . “I have been troubled with catarrh for nearly twenty-five years and have tried many cures for it, but obtained very little help, “Then my brother advised me to try Peruna, and I did. “My health was very poor at the time I began taking Peruna, My throat was very sore and I had a bad cough. “Peruna has cured me. The chronic catarrh is gone and my health is very much improved. “I recommend Peruna to all my friends who are troubled as I was.” PERUNA TABLETS::=Some people pre- fer tablets, rather than medicine in a fluid form. Such people can obtain Peru- na tablets, which represent the medici- nal ingredients of Peruna, Each tablet equals one average dose of Peruna, Man-a-lin the Ideal Laxative.

Mr. Orear's home is in Sweet Springs and he 1s particularly well posted on conditions throughout central Missour!. “In the several counties in central Missouri that I have recently visit ed,” sald Mr. Orear, ‘the sentiment with the rank and file of Democracy seems to be decidedly favorable to the candidacy of Mr Cowherd.

It must be maintained atthe very highest point ofeffictency, and to the credit of Missouri that of the seventeen cents on the hundred dollars which she levies for State purposes, she gives back seven of it to the common school. “This is in addition to any money raised for the maintenance of that school by local taxation. So that many counties{in the State drawfrom the Treasury of the State more for the maintenance of their common schools than they rafse by taxation on their citizens. But if the com- mon school {s to be maintained at the point of highest efficiency, there must be yearly sent out into the ranks of the teachers of the State trained men and women to take their Place as educators. “The fountain can rise no higher than {ts source; unless the teacher in the common school improves with the coming years, then the achool it- self is in a rutfrom which there is no escape, and so that our school eys- tem may continually improve, and that the boys and girls of the little echoolhouse may every year find therein a better opportunity for} p preparation for the contest of life, I demand that we maintain, as we have always done, those higher SPECIALIST ON THE _|echools that keep up the standard of Ear, Eye, Nose and Throat enn end a — oo ie or lung given s attention. t ‘free and proper- lyfitted ~ OFFICE—On the South Side in Building. the Catterlin 4 aes education. “Every Missouri boy and girl has a right to demand that without cost to himeelt for tuition he shall receive, within his State, an education equal to that given to ite children by any State in the Union.” port Barton, of Elton, i, wee “T have ai ‘ doses of Witt's Kidvey and Bladder Pill and they bave done for me morethanany Mo.

Mr. Sinclair holds that the extra taxes then col- lected are fllegal, and offers, for 50 per cent of what he recovers, to sue and get back the sums paid. The supreme court has held the tax Illeg- al.

There is no way of making lasting friends like "Making Good;” and Doctor Pierce’s_ medicines well exemplify this, and their friends, after more than two decades of fopsienity, are numbered by the hundfeds of thousands. They have "made good” and they have not made drunkards. A good, honest, square-deal medicine of known composition is Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical oe: It still enjoys an im- mense sale, while most of the prepara- tions that have come into prominence in the earlier period of its popularity have "gone by the board.” and are never more heard of. There must be some reason for this long-time popularity and that. is to be found in its superior merits. When once given a fair trial for weak stomach, or for liver and blood affections, its supe- rior curative qualities are soon manifest; hence it has survived and grown in pop- ular favor, while scores of less meritorious icles have suddenly flashed into favor for Tsing period and then been as soon ten. - ‘or a torpid liver with its attendant indigestion, dyspepsia, headache, per- haps dizziness, foul breath, nasty coated tongue, with bitter taste, loss of appetite, with distress after eating, nervousn and debility, nothing is so good as Dr. ieree’s Golden Medical Discovery.

Teachers Everett and Wakeley Were Drugged by Philippine Tribesman. Manila, July.—The bodies of H. D. Everett, 8 government forester, and T. R. Wakeley, a school teacher, who were murdered several weeks ago by tribesmen while on an expedition tn- to the unexplored mountain regions of the Island of Negroes, have been recoverad by Lieut. Ahearn of the consteoulary forces after a difficult and dangerous search. Lieut. Ahearn tells of finding the which has been received here: “Am returoing with the remains of Everett and Wakeley, which weto nd near the last camp in the Bayaual Mountains. At firet our guides were apparently afraid to lead us into the mountains of the interior island along the route traveled by the two murdered men. Luckily we at length succeeded in securing guides who were acquainted with Ayhao, the leader of the murderers, and who took us to the last camping place of Everett and Wakeley.” “Ayhao, it was explained, planned the murder while acting as one of the native guides which were conducting the two white men {nto the Intertor of the feland. While gambling with guides. The only excuse given by Ayhao for murdering the party was that he felt like killing “some one.” Lieut. Ahearn aud his party found the botanical and other equipment of the two men, and also Everett's money. Ahearn stated that he endeavored rivers so swollen that he had to re- turn with his sma!l force. Ayhao is reported to be far in the mountains with many followers, DeWitt’s Witch Hazel Salve isespe elally good for piles. Recommended and sold by C. W. Hess. Home of the Cob Pipe.

These, with 648,418 pounds of live and 20,- 410 pounds of dressed poultry, in- cluding 1,867 pounds of feathers, brought the county $377,054. This sum, though, falls $16,643 short of | returning to the county as large an a@mount as was realized from her “Missouri merschaum” products. Ut corncob pipes, during the year named, the county exported 22,608,- 488. Besides these, she sent out 912,000 pipe stems, 29,808 “clean- ers” and 106,992 woyden pipes, the entire classification bringing in $393,607, which ie more than haltas much as was realized from either her livestock or-her grain exportations, the former bringing $75,868 and the latter $697,823.
