"PE=RU-NA A HOUSEHOLD NECESSITY
SAYS Proc TALEouRp SMITH OF EoRcIA.

Catarrh is a systemic disease. not a
local disease. If Peruna will cure ca
tarrh in one place it will cure 1t in any
other place. because Peruna is a sys-
temic remedy. 1t reaches the disease
through the circulation in each organ.
1t eradicates the disease by Graduating
ii from the system.
Peruna eradicates catarrh from the
system in the same way that the prac-
teal farmer eradicates weeds from his
fields. ! The sensible farmer does not
think of cutting off the top of the
weeds TO kill them. He pulls them up
by the roots.
DIR. Hartman, the originator of Pc
runa, has used this remedy for the last
forty years with great success as a
specific for catarrh
A free book, written by him, will be
sent to any address. 1t contains the re-
suits of his forty years experience
with Peruna, and will be found of great
interest to those afflicted with catarrh
of any organ of the body.
Mr.. F. E. Bracket, Medford, Mass,
writes:
II have a bottle of Peruna and Man
ain in use in my house two thirds of
the time. If take 1t when feeling a
little indisposed it braces me right up,
and keeps me in such fine condition
that I don't catch cold. and that is life
and happiness to one of my business.
| am teamster, and when the men,
brane of my nose is swollen at night
after driving in our east winds and
fogs, take dose of Peruna on going
to bed at night and get up all right in
the morning. 1t also makes the blood
circulate, and is sure death to rheu-
matism."- f. E. Bracket
IL you do not derive prompt and sat
isfactory results from the use of Peru

ing full statement of your case, and
he will be pleased to give you his valu-
able advice gratis.

THE Era on rRoLLEYs.

In an article on "The Trolley Age,''
contributed to The Independent by AL
bert L. johnson, he treats Interestingly
of the extension of electric railway COM
munication, and especially of the line
which he is constructing between Phila-
delphia and New York. Already it is
possible to ride comparatively long dis
tances on electric cars. With the excep-
ton of one or two short breaks, one may
travel in this manner all the way from
New York to Boston. To this time, how
ever, the speed has not been sufficient to
make such extensive trolley trips attrac-
tive except for those having abundant
leisure. This drawback will be remedied
on the new line between the two big CT
ties, according to MIR. Johnson's declara-
ton. He says that the roadbed will
conform to the highest standard in use
by the foremost steam railroads, and
will not have a single grade crossing.
The cars are to be comfortable and
commodious, with guarantees from the
principal electric companies in this
country that their motors will propel
the cars at least fifty miles an hour.
Mr.. johnson AYERS that he does not
expect to make any serious inroad upon
the normal traffic of the steam railroads,
but that he has roseate anticipations is
manifest from his mention that the
Allentown system which he organized,
now comprising 225 miles of track, car
ried in its first years 10000 passengers
and last year over 2O,OOO,OO0. With
high speed made practicable, the extern
sion of trolley transportation to an enor-
nous extent appears certain in the near
future.

The editor of the Sussex Independent
of Deckertown is evidently pleased with
the Stokes bill. He says:
1.-THE Stokes bill will save to the tax
payers of Sussex county alone the snug
sum of $1,000 in taxes, saving that
means great deal to the farmers of this
county, and for which we feel sure the
farmers and property owners will feel
justly grateful. To my mind this is GER
tainly practical law making. At the
same time it in no way effects the gem
eral surplus of the state, but comes di-
rect from the revenues collected from
the large corporations. So far as Sussex
county is concerned, it is of material in
terest, and it is one of the kinds of legis-
lation that makes her people feel good
Go on this way, gentlemen, and we are
with you, regardless of political balder-
dash. said prominent farmer to one of
our representatives since adjournment. !"
Another important feature of the
Stokes law is the adjustment of the
school census, which in many places was
permeated with fraud The State
State school moneys will now be ap-
portioned on the basis of actual atten-
dance. By this an annual saving of
$40, 900 will be affected. There are 800
school districts in the State, and $50 of
them will gain by the new system"

'True Way to Repair Roads.

The roads of East Orange have never
been in better condition at this season
than they are this year. They are smooth
and hard and free from loose stone, and
are in marked and delightful contrast
with conditions in some previous years.
The condition is due in great measure
to the excellent system of repair and in
part to the block system of maintenance
by which men are employed and put in
personal charge of streets and sections,
with entire responsibility for keeping
them in repair and clean. The block
system has worked 80 advantageously and
SO economically wherever in operation
that it is probable that 1t will be put In
general practice throughout the city
during the present year. The results of
the present experiment should be as
gratifying to the taxpayers as it is to the
officials who are directly responsible for
it.-East Orange Gazette.
