Martin wants a normal school es- tablished In the western part of the state and has written to Superintendent of In- struction Fowler stating his reasons why such a school should be established there. Mr. Martin desires the coming legislature | to establish. the echool, for he writes the Normal school at Peru is little service to the western section of the state. In that part of the state there are twenty-six coun- ties, from which only six persons attend , | the normal at Peru. Besides that, he states there are nineteen counties not represented. Enclosed with the communication was a map prepared by Mr. Martin, showing that | nearly all of the students at the normal at Peru are gathered from the immediate by vIsitng Lyicinity of that town and the southeast por- | e Barnard from Table Roek P coltr o tion of the etate The absence of any in- stitutions of higher education in the west and northwest is another argument ad- vanced by Mr. Martin.

For the second year the disbursements were $16,852.12 and the cost per capita was $181.03. Pressure for Pardons. Much pressure is being brought to bear on Governor Savage by friends of inmates of the penitentiary for pardons and the pressure is worrying the governor mot a little. "As a sample of some of the letters being recelved by the governor this morn- ing he showed to a representative of The Bee a letter written by a woman whose husband is now in the state prison. The man has served six months of his term. It was sald that strong drink drove him to commit the act for which he was sen- tenced. A portion of the letter is as fol- lows: It was not drink, but sickness that caused it. 1 am down with my lungs and have been il for the last two winters. On account of my four children I have ‘o be very careful of my heaith, but at present I am unable to leave the house and I need my husband. If he does not come soon it ‘will d0 nelther of us any good, for I will not be here. I am trying to fight off death for his sake and for the sake of the children, but I cannot £0 very much longer. 1 pray day and night that he might be here by Christma Oh God, let him come. I want to s€e him once more. I pray day and night that God will let you see some way to grant him a.pardon. Let me see him just once more. He is not a_bad man. He was al- ways a kind and affectionate husband and father, and. oh, Mr_ Bavage, think of your own dear on¢s and have pity on me, a dying woman, and try to grani my prayer. “Letters are coming in like that every day and that is just a sample of the misery that is brought to my attention. What can a man do? If there was only some way to punish the guilty without injuring the innocent, but it seems there is not.’ As the time for Governor Savage to leave the state house draws near the num- ber of applicants increase, and this morn- ing his office was filled with friends of in- mates of the state prison, seeking pardons. e 1 1 t Released from Jail.

There are a great colds. | Remedies guaranteed to cure a cold in a day, to stop a cough Immediately are plenty, but there is one remedy that not enly cures coughs and colds promptly, but fortifies the system against future attacks This remedy is Peruna. Peruna not only cures a cold quickly and permanently, but it so heals and streng- thens the inflamed mucous membranes that one is much less liable to catch cold than before taking it. | It is an ideal safeguard for all winter diseases. One-half the ills of winter are | caused directly by an inflamed condition of the mucous membrané of some part of the body. The mucous membrane lining the nose, throat and lungs are often affected in winter. A remedy that acts benefically on these | inflamed membranes would be a logical cure for these diseases. With healthy mucous membranes no one need fear the most severe weather. Catarrhal diseases cannot exist when Pe- | runa is used, and kept on hand during the | winter months. Matilda Hogan, daughter of [ at Woodslee, Ont., writes “Following close upon a severe cold, contracted a few months ago, I had con- stant dull headaches, considerable fever and a feeling of extreme lassitude, soreness in the joints and loss of appetite and sleep 1 was simply sick all over, but two bottles of Peruna cured me and made me feel alto- gether different.
