Inc PEANUT Club gave their first BAN
quet last night at Maupln's Hall. Plates
were laid for seventy-iive persons The
Seaboard Air Line Band Orchestra was
present and dispensed excellent music
throughout the evening, which added
much to the occasion. AT 9:15 the club
and invited guests repaired to the hall,
where q sumptuouS repast had been set
by MIR. III. Q. Pearson, and it was one
that any club might feel proud to sit
down to.
MIR. G. w. Walker, vice-president of
the club, called the assemblage to
order and then asked q blessing upon
the food of which they were about to
partake of. All then began to satisfy
the inner man, after which the liquids
were brought in.

THE REMEDY FOR TRUSTS.


The Standard Oil company recently
made an agreement with the Mobiles
family and a few English capitalists
to own and control all the oil fields Of
Russia, thereby dividing the worlds
supply. Following upon that the. price
of oil went up to the American scale.
Nitte, the Russian minister Of
finance, has made several efforts to in
duce the oil proprietors to content
themselves with a reasonable prift.
Having failed in his laudable purpose
the Russian is now preparing COM
prehensive scheme to purchase the oil
fields aud to operate them as govern
ment property The owners will be
dealt with literally, but even after
paying them more than they ought to
get the government expects to sell OH
for half the present price and make q
large profit for the eXcheguer. We
are unable to do this at present, be
cause the trusts own orr American

hr. Joseph Kirchensteiner, 81 Croton
street, Cleveland, o., says: ave have
used Peruna for eight years as our fam
lily medicine. During the whole Of that
time we have not had to employ o ply
stefan.
Oar fanly consists OF seven, and
we also use it for the thousand and
one ailments to which mankind is liable.
We have used it in cases OF scarletfever,
measles and diphtheria. Whenever one
OF the family feels in the least i'll, mother
always says: take Peruna and you
will be well,' or If we do not happen to
have any, we will have to get more
Peruna.' Peruna is always satisfactory
in colds and coughs"
Children are especially liable to acute
catarrh. Indeed, most of the affections
of childhood are catarrh. All forms of
sore throat, quinsy, Group, hoarseness,
and laryngitis are but different phases
of catarrh.
These affections, in the acute
form, may pass away without treat
ment, but they leave a foundation
for chronic catarrh in later years. Even
q slight cold is acute catarrh, and rem
ders the mucous membrane of the head
and throat more liable to chronic ca
tarrh afterwards. The child is con.
stantly asailed winter and summer, with
catarrh.
Affections of the stomach and bowels,
collie and diarrhea, are due to ca
| tarrhal arrangements of these organs.
A great many families are learning by
bitter experience that these affections
mus be promptly treated OF. the child's
health is permanently injured.
Peruna is the remedy. No family
should be without it. AS soon as the
symptoms Of cold, cough or any other
affection of the throat or stomach is
noticed, Peruna should be given accord
ing to directions. A vast multitude of
families are relying entirely upon PEI
runa for safety in this direction.
| There are no substitutes. Peruna is
the only systemic catarrh remedy
known to the medical profession.
! That Peruna can be relied upon is evil
denced by the great number Of testi-
monials which DR.. Hartman is receiving
daily. Only avery few Of these can be
published. Only one in thousand.
Every household should be provided
with DR.. Hartman's free book on CO.
