PeunM The On

No man Is better known in the state
of Nebraska than Mr., Carl Il, Roberts,
contractor and mason. A typical Amor
ican-active, shrowd and full Of bust
ness sagacity, He Is not only aprovider
for his family, but a protector. In a
recent letter to DR., Hartman he writes,
among other things, as follows;
"Our boy, James, had the membran-
Gus Group, and after he had recovered
he was subject 10 repeated attacks Of
lung fever
"Our boy, Charlie, was also subject
TO attacks of pneumonia and pIenriSy.
Our third boy, John, was subject TO
fever and ague (naIarian and flyer
trouble.
"Your remedy, Peruna, cured my
boys entirely, and now IhaYe three Of
the heaIfhiesf boys In ihe state Of
Nebraska, which I attribute TO your
medicine. My wife had stomach
trouble which Peruna also cured.
"Ahogefher for my whole family we
have hPd nineteen bottles OF Peuna,
and have thus saved over $500 In
Doctors bills.
al am q contractor and mason by
trade, and am known all over Ne
braska. IhaVe had a stomach trouble
which has been greatly relieved BY
your remedy, Peruna, for which am
SIN taking H. We think II Is The
greatest medicine on earth"
c. r. ROBERTS,
Falls city, Nebraska.
Mr.. Il, G. Walker, Carneiro, Kansas,
writes; at is with pleasure that re.
port that | am better than i have been
for many years. / believe Peruna is
without a doubt the best medicine that
was ever used in family. 1t has cured
my nervousness, with which / had been
afflicted for great number of years."
1t is fact of eyer-increasing astonish-
ment that so many otherwise sensible
and proyident people will, for the
neglect of so simple precaution as to
have q bottle Of Peruna III hand, bring

jomn in the East.

Judge Il. f. Colburn has returned
from an eight months sojourn in the
east In the interest Of the New Light,
Heat & Power company, leaving Frank
j, Cannon, w, A. Nelden and Albert
Hayes in New York on the outlook for
chances, The judge says the country
Is on the threshold of the petroleum
age and people seem crazy on the pro-
duction of petroleum and its products.
Moreover, the application OF these dis
coyeries to practical uses is making
great strides Judge Colburn says
Utah mining investments are well con-
sidered in the east, and that the oppor-
tunity for investment in western prop
erty generally Is appreciated by east
ern people. He expects Salt Lake real
estate to become firmer than ever in
the near future.

The president OF the Chicago, Rock
Island, and Pacific Railroad discovered
not long ago that clgaret smokers
were unsatisfactory railroad men, and
so issued an order dlscharging them UNI
less they would abandon the habit.
Willis NJ. Moore, chief of the United
States weather bureau, has placed the
ban on cigaret smokers IN his depart
ment OF the service. The George w.

cigaret smokers shall remain In their

The Peruna Medicine Co, as follows:
Gentlemen--"I certainly feel grateful

more than half the people with whom

them don't use Poruna and get we'll.
"Myself and family were all sick a
few days ago with stomach trouble and
used Peruna with very satisfactory re-
suits and at one.third the cost It would
have been had we called in a physician
who could not possibly have prescribed
a better remedy than Poruna"

Of them. Tho doctor said he could re-

THEY WANT THEIR DIVIDENDS.

The small minority OF Rio Grande
Western stockholders are dissatisfied
over the passing Of dividends, ana as
earnings indicate that per cent diNi-
dend ought 10 be declared, suit In
court is promised, The Wall street
Journal IN long article on the matter,
says;
ut Is now unoflcially reported that

pended and that the c0mpanys Income

qulres OF us whether this can legally
or properly be done, and whether the
Rio Grande Western is not earning It's
preferred dividend beyond question,

III IL thus clear that, assuming the

lust twice the amount required to meet
the per cent dividend on the preferred
stock
Clearly the road Is earning the
dividend on the preferred, and, there-
fore, the suppositi0n must be that II
needs the money for something else.
A minority stakeholder might prob
ably question the right Of the company
to divert his income In this way and
unless II could be shown that the best
interests Of the company Itself re-
duired this diversion he could probably
obtain redress. No majority interest
has a right to prejudice the Intervals

and great therefore was the surprise OF
II. Van MOntanaeken, the well.knOwn
Belgian traveller. when he suddenly
found himself face to face with u col.
ony OF such Indians as he was making
his way through the heart Of Peru dur.
ing his recent exploration Of that cOun.
try and Brazil. He cOnversed with
them for some time ana took photo.
graphs of two OF their chiefs, which on
his return to Europe he intended to put
In u book that he was about to publish.
Unfortunately he died before the book
was ready ana his widow has now pre-.
sented the photographs to the Royal
Geographical Society Of Anvers.
This tribe, according to Montanacken,
Is known as that OF the Lorenzo Indians
aud Its home Is In what Is known as the
Amazon country. part of which lies In
Peru and part In Brazil. Unlike almost
all Others of their race. these Indians
have n clear white skin, and, further.
more, the strange but common custom
Of tattooing and painting their bodies
does not prevail among them. Strlk-
lngly handsome, too, many of them are,
with frank and pleasing countcnances
that are by no means of the ordinary In.
dian type.
\ nomad life they live. wandering In
small bands over the vast solitary
plains and apparently making no effort
to better their condition, To this lack
OF energy. as well as to the numerous
wars which have been waged against
them by adjacent tribes, must be as.
crlbed the fact that they are not to-day
nearly rs numerous as they were n
quarter OF century ago, and II their
number continues to decrease at the
present rate the outlook Is that the tribe
Will soon become extinct.
These picturesque Indians do not en-.
cumber themselves with clothing. The
women wear merely strip of cotton
or other stuff around their loins and
the men consider themselves In gala
costume when they have hung over
their shoulders two narrow bands of
network, one of which remains as a sort
Of belt over their arms, while the other
falls down from the left shoulder and
terminates at the right hip.
