A WILD TALE
Told by a Man Who Had Big Pistol
Sticking Out of His
Shoe Top.

Officer G L. Sidle, Of the Fort Wayne
station, arrested man named joseph
Morgan yesterday afternoon on a charge
Of suspicion. In conversation with a
young man at the Fort Wayne, Morgan
said that he had killed his brother and
sister in Clovelana and he was trying to
escape the officers who We = on the hunt
for him.
This st lry was related to Officer Sidle,
who pl-ced Morgan under arrest and
took hi n before Squire Robertson. He
was saarcse ed by Constable Krumlauf,
who found revolver sticking in the top
of his shCe. A charge Of carrying con
cealed weapons wRs placed against Nor
gan. who pleaded guilty to the charge.
He was frei S. and costs, and was com

DISEASED NERVES.
An Extract From a Recent Lecture at
the Surgical Hotel.

Diseased nerves are the result of thin
blood. Pure, rich blood always makes
strong nerves Good blood is the result
of good food, well digested. Bad food,
even though it be well digested, can not
make good blood. Good food must be
we'll digested to make good blood. There
fore, diseased nerves are traceable direct
ly to poor digestion. With the slightest
catarrh of the stomach no one can have
good digestion. Very few OF the many
people who have catarrh of the stomach
suspect what their real trouble is. They
know they bech after meals, have sour
stomach, a sensation of weight or heavi-
ness, fullness, irregular appetite, drowsi-
ness, gnawing, empty sensations, occa-
sional pain-they know all this; but they
do not know that their trouble is catarrh
of the stomach. If they did, they would
take Pe.ru-na. Pe-ru-na cures catarrh
wherever located. AS soon as Pe.ru.na
removes catarrh from the stomach, the
digestion becomes good, appetite regu-
lar, nerves strong, and trouble vanishes.
Pc ru.na strengthens weak nerves, not
by temporarily stimulating t EN-, but by
removing the cause Of weak nerves
poor digestion. This is the only cure
that lasts. Remove the cause; nature
will do the rest. Pe-ru-na removes the
cause.
Send to The Pe-ru-na Drug Manufac-
turing Company, Columbus, Ohio, for a
free book which will tell you the rest.
