MISS ANNIE

Catarrh had completely destroyed her voice,
so that she was unable to speak aloud.
Pe-ru-na restored her voice completely. en-
abling her to return to her public profess
sion. The following is a sample of the
letters which her gratitude prompts her to
write to DR.. Hartman. the discoverer OF
Pe-ru-na, the world famous catarrh remedy:
Fifteenth Street and jackson Avenue,
Kansas City, Mo.-Dr. Hartman: Dear Sir
Only those who have been afflicted can ever
know the intense satisfaction and gratitude
that comes with q complete cure. Pe-ru-na
has been my salvation. 1t has given me
back a beautiful voice. a gift Of God; 1t has
brought me once more to my old profession.
l can talk now, and sing, where before I
could scarcely whisper. Can you wonder at
my delight? I wish every person who Is
suffering as I suffered might know Pe-ru-na.
l was too ambitious, and Just at the time
when my voice was at Its best I broke
down in New York City from overwork,
hard study and catarrh. I was sent home
in an invalid's chair and for ten months was
bedridden. A terrible attack of rheumatism
depleted what little strength I had and 1t
seemed as though I was never to walk or
talk any more. My voice was completely
gone. Gradually regained part OF my

all hope. when one day l read In the Star
a testimonial OF Pe-ru-na, signed by Alex
ander F, Stern of Marine City. Mich. The
tone of 1t seemed sincere. but to satisfy
myself I wrote him a letter. The reply waa
enthusiastic; so much so that I determined
to try Pe-ru-na.
Here are a few extracts from my diar,

General Nelson A.. Miles writes
"The one thing above all others for which
It seems to me the American people should
rejoice this year Is that they have inherited
from their ancestors the spirit Of liberty,
courage, self-sacrifce and humanity.
early In the present year we Weakened
up to the fact that we had a duty to per-
form. 1t was a duty Of humanity. 1t was
q difficult task. Our inherited sense OF RICH,
and justice Is so strong that we could no,
forsake It. When it became evident that we
could only discharge this duty by war we
did not shrink from that. The whole coun-
try aroused itself. Practically all our re-
sources were put at the command Of this
duty. Men everywhere were willing to
sacrifice their interests, their affections,
even their lives. In order to save the ma
tional honor and to uphold the national
character.
"In my position in the army I was con-
stantly In contact with men who were
willing In this way to sacrifice everything
to this sense Of humanity and Justice.
When we began the war we found we had a
difficult task. We had to cross the ocean
to find our enemy; we had to do our work
In an atmosphere utterly foreign to our own
and In the worst season OF the climate, but
no one faltered. On the contrary. work
could not be done fast enough to suit any

and navy confronted the enemy In both the
islands and the waters Of the Atlantic and
Pacific, There was no hesitation In striking
and the gratifying results were accomplished
In the most direct and satisfactory manner
and done SO we'll that at the end OF the war
It was found that we had not lost a field

on Mr.. Sesom and asked him to run for mayor, that
gentleman stroked his rather heavy mustache in

Gentlemen, do you really think that am the

The question characteristic of the and,
of course, the prominent citizens loud in their
laudatons of Mr.. Sesom's virtues and fitness above
all Others for the highest gift of people Then the
delegation went away, took several rounds Of drinks

Mr.. Sesom had not visited the saloon with them,
not because he objectrd to friendly drink but be-
cause he busy that day matters of great i'm

he put down his pen, lowered his head on his chest,
and fell into profound meditation Ten years be-

highest tribute of their respect and good WILL and

played leading role in it's commercial prosperity
and was about to assume control of it's political
machinery, these people did not love him and
had. He tried to discover why and in the efforts his
head sank lower on his breast; his eyes closed and
the future mayor of the town was asleep.
A political campaign, even in a country town. is
source of much excitement and the announcement

Wills in the early days. when the latter clerk
in his office, and Wills had learned to love his bene-

of his that night, and swore before God and
man that it only the Jewish instincts in Sesom
that he dislike d. but the man as dear to him
This psychological dilemma is not peculiar to
Wills alone but many have felt it. and many will feel
it to the worlds end
And, strange it may seem, Sesom also felt that
his religion, of which he very proud, was the
barrier betwt EN- him and the outside world. He had
not been in a synagogue for many years, nor had he
discussed religious beliefs with his friends; but they

The village nestled in valley over the slopes of

curious anti.Semitism sprung up and fourshed, is a
problem answerable only by the Sphinx; but as the
election drew near, the sentiment against Sesom
