IN WASHINGTON, D. C., I find Pe-ru-na very valuable for rebuilding of a worn and tired system. HIVALROUS, high-minded, impulsive, generous, courteous, courageous, loyal, a believer in good fellowship, a lover of home, magnanimous to ene mies, true to friends, is a reputation that any man may well envy. No man better exemplifies this description than Col. William Camp, whose* testimonial is given below, His unique figure and charming personality is well known in the streets of the capital city of the United States. His word is as good * ters, sang a beautiful solo, after which ashis bond, His frankness and truthfulness no one has ever questioned that knew him. Read what he says concerning Peruna, «| write to say that I have valuable remedy for coughs or used Peruna and find it a very colds and rebuilding of a worn and tired system, dissipating and eradicating that old tired feel- ing.”’---Col. William Camp, 1740 L, St., N. W., Washington, D. C. R. CHAS, BROWN, Rogersville, Tenn., writes: “I feel it my duty to write you a few words in praise of your Peruna. Ihave tried many differ- ent remedies, but have found that Pe- na is the greatest tonic on earth, anda perfect system builder. “A friend advised me to take Pernna for indigestion, and it cured me in a short time, J was very weak and ner- vous, could sleep but little at night, but Peruna cured that tired, all-gone fec!- ing, and made me feel like a new man, 8o I heartily recommend it to all who are weak and run down. It will give new life and energy. “T cannot speak too highly of Peruna, and will not forget to recommend it.” Peruna is manufactured by the Peruna Drug Mfg. Co,, Columbus, Ohio A PRETTY HOME WEDDING. Marriage of Popular Young Bates County Couple. Appleton City Journal. The hospitable and popular -rural home of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Laney, short distance west of the city, was the place of a happy gathering of rela- tives and intimate friends and the scene of a beautiful home wedding at! 12:30 o’clock Wednesday, Feb. 23, 1910, at which time their daughter, Miss Gertrude Anna, and Clyde C. Piepmeier were married by Rev. I. F. Shirley, a Baptist minister of El- Dorado Springs. The parlors and dining room were very appropriately decorated for the occasion, while there was an air of joy about everything and especially depicted in the smiling faces.of the assembled guests and the cordial wel- come extended by the host, hostess and assistants that made one feel at ease and that it was good to be there, As a signal that the time had arriv- ed for the ceremony. Miss Eula Anthony, of Kansas City, and an inti- mate friend of the bride and her sis- Miss Winnie McColley played the wedding march as the. bridal party made its appearance in the parlor and the contracting parties took their place-in front of the minister, who in but. very beautiful and appro- words “tied the silken cord that made two hearts beat as one.” The bride’s dress was a one piece lingerie frock, elaborately trimmed in Valenciennes lace and applique. The groom was dressed in the usual black and the couple made a fine appear- ance as they stood at the marriage altar. Both parties are members of high- ly influential and substantial families of our county on the west and grew to man and womanhood in the neigh- borhood where they were united in marriage and will eontinue the jour- ney of life together. The bride isa most eetimable, sensible and practical young lady, possessing all the charac- teristics of a true and noble girl and the necessary accomplishments to make a bright and happy home for the man of her choice. Her father, Wm. Laney, has long been known as one of Hudson township’s good, solid and useful citizens, while the mem- bers of his family are prominent in church and social circles. Clyde is a son of Mr. and Mrs. H. J. Piepmeier, who are also pioneer, substantial and highly esteemed resi- dents of the neighborhood. He isa young man possessing the most com- mendable habits of industry and sobriety and enjoys the esteem of a large circle of friends. He already has a good farm and nice home to which to take his bride. He owns what is known as the Randolph farm of 120 acres about four and one-half miles west of the city, where himself and bride will be ‘‘at home”’ to their friends from now on. About forty guests were present. Those from a distance present were: Mr. and Mrs. A. T. Laney, of Clinton, and Miss Eula Anthony, of Kansas r who ‘Te b re A CLOUDED TITLE. Secrétary of State Roach Gives Gmelich Some “Hot Stuff.” Jefferson City, Mo., February 17, 10 Hon. Jacob F. Gmelich, Jefferson City, Missouri. Dear Sir:—Yours of February 15, assuring me that you had no desire to institute a newspaper controversy, has been received. As I read your letter of February 11th in the metro- politan press before the original reached me, you are thoughtful in giving that kind of assurance, if news- paper notoriety were not your object. It affords me pleasure to have you agree with me in this conviction that the election records on file in this of- fice should not be changed to suit the whims and ambitions of any candi- date. However, you now state, ‘‘All Task is that the vote upon this office (lieutenant governor) be reported as originally made by the county clerks of the various counties.” Had these figure been used in the Manual, the totals would have shown the election of Mr. Painter by a plurality of 204, These election abstracts are on file in this office, are public, and you are cordially invited to come and ingpect them for yourself. Allow me to cor- rect for you the false impression you must-entertain since you allege that my predecessor’s compilation giving you a plurality of thirty votes was a compilation which included only origi- nal returns.. He made a compilation which gave you a plurality of thirty, but that compilation included part} original and part amended returns, such parts of each having been chosen as were necessary to make such claim in your behalf. Boiled down, the records here make this indisputable showing: Compil- ing original returns only, as certified by county clerks and election com- missioners, your opponent, Mr. Paint- er, had a plurality of 204; compiling all amended returns, gives him a plurality of 23. That to which you refer as the Swanger compilation which gave you a plurality of thirty was a compilation with some original returns and some amended returns, a “mixed’’ compilation—fot one made up purely of either all the original, or of all the amended returns. To con- vince you of the correctness of my statements, I invite your personal in-| spection of the figures arranged by counties in columns side by side so that you or any one else may see at a glance that the declarations I make are based on the certified records. In all candor and kindness, my dear sir, permit me to inform you that you are deluded when you say that the figures I published in the “Blue Book” are obtained ‘“‘by ac- cepting amended returns from cer- tain counties and by not accepting them from others.” In my first let- ter to you on this subject, I said the figures I used included all the amend- ed returns. I rejected none of them, for I believe they were honestly cer- tified, are founded on good law, and entitled to credance as the official figures. “ Your suggestion that I should have substituted for precinct and ward re- turns, in the table of figures, the fig- ures adopted as correct by the legis- lative recount committee, in the wards where a recount was made, was im- practicable and impossible, because feel there is no official report to my knowledge which gives such figures. Tinvite your inspection of the report of said committee, on pages 31, 32 and 33 of the House Journal of the last General Assembly. That report, so far as I know, is the only official report on the subject. You will observe the report does not give your vote in detail by precincts, wards and counties, but concludes that you had a plurality of 177. The foot note I inserted in the Manual conveys this same information. The finding of the legislative committee, having been adopted by the joint session, ac- counts for the Manual’s presenting you as lieutenant governor. Trusting you will’ pardon a person- al observation, allow me to add that I am not surprised to learn you do not comfortable over the given to your office. title history has | Adrian Journal Notes. | Whilehelpingto movea house Tues- jday Frank Shook received injuries | which might have proven very seri- ous, but fortunately he escaped with joaly a few severe bruises.
