Pe-ru-na Drug Mfg Co., Columbus, o.:
Gentlemen-Pe-ru-na has often been
used by the members of our club in
cases Of stomach trouble and general
debility-also recently in cases Of la
grippe, and always with the most belle
hciary results. I think a great deal of
Pe-ru-na-often recommend it to my
friends, and am glad to say all who have
tried it speak good word for it.

depend upon the report of the assessors
for the year The treasurer sent back
word ana asked if the State treasurer
couldn't send for what he thought was
fair and let il go a that. The reply was
of course. that the case must be straight
and this would not be getting correct tig
ures. Then came the returns showing
that about twice as many female dogs AS
the town was accredited with having had
been killed and about half of the male
dogs. Such affairs as this are OF course,
conducive of good results in working up
on the good feelings of the department
and the dogs are thus the cause of the
bad words that may arise about the vault
containing the States surplus cash.
Men were talking the other day at the
State House about the illiteracy of the
people even in these DAYS Of free eduCa !
ton. There are actually returns that
come 70 state departments where the
town clerks sign with a cross someone
else writing the names. There have been
many cases in the past few years where
the town clerks of certain towns have
been unable to read. which is Il fact. even
though it does sound bad for the State of
Maine. one case is mentioned where a
few years ago the returns were sent to 1
department of the town treasurer. These
returns must be certified 70 by the town
clerk. II happened that in this case the
Clerk and the treasurer were one and the
same persons. hence they were both
signed with his name But what made II
seem very much as though the town must
be hard up for officials. the man could no:
write his own name ana ii was someone
else who had to do the signing while the
clerk made his cross after each name.
