BEER DRINKING
 ON THE INCREASE
Some Interesting Facts and 0b- servations in the Quality
 of the Beverage.

It is a we'll known fact that the con- sumption of whiskey in the United States, instead of increasing with popu- lation, Is steadily decreasing. The dis tillery output is less by 20 to % per cent than 1t was ten years ago. some author ities stating the decrease at still lar ger percentage.
 This change in liquor conditions Is readily accounted for by the Increase In wine and beer drinking; especially In beer drinking. Beer. that is good beer, Is a wholesome beverage, and this changing of America from nation of whisky drinkers to beer drinkers, Is tremen- dous and a cheering fact. It Is certainly an important fact in our sociology.
 The increased consumption of beer nat uraily causes more attention to be paid to the quality and to the purity of beer than formerly. A poor quality of beer. like a poor quality of anything else Is to be avoided. In fact nothing that is con sumed in the way of liquid is more in- furious to health than impure beer. While on the other hand, no beverage is so health-giving as chemically pure beer, when drunk in moderation. It is far bet fer for health than most of the so-called temperance drinks.
 But. as Henry Petersen. one of the best informed and most observed men In the liquor trade here. says. remember that while there are beers and beers. good beer does not cost the consumer any more, as general rule. than unwhole- some beer. MT, Petersen Is now intro duc!ng the famous Fred Miller brew of Milwaukee. This is not only a rich. de- licious beverage to the taste. but is valued highly on account of it's. purity. It Is a strong leader in this respect.
 The United States Brewers Academy, the scientific authority on chemical an- alysis, reports on the Fred Miller beer that it. does not contain tny chemicals,

So, "catching a Tartar" is applicable to one who has found an antagonist too powerful for him.

WHERE are a multitude of women

WHERE are multitude of women, A especially housewives, and all other women obliged to be on their feet con- stantly, who are wretched beyond de- scription, simply because their strength and vitality is sapped away by catarrhal discharges from the pelvic organs. These women get up in the morning tired, drag themselves through their daily duties tired, only to go to bed at night as tired as before.
 Peruna is such a perfect specific for each case that when patients have once used it they can never be induced to quit it until they are permanently cured. It begins to relieve the, disagreeable symptoms at once. The backache ceases, the trembling knees are strength ened the appetite restored, the digestion made perfect, the dull headache is stopped and the weakening drains are gradually cured. These results certainly follow a course of treatment with Pe- runa.

HARVARD DEFEATED BY YALE ATHLETES In Track Events the Blues Make
 57 Points TW0-MILE RACE SURPRISE Both Dashes Were Very Exciting, Yale Men Winning in the
 Last Few
 Strides.
TWO-MILE RACE SURPRISE

New Haven, Conn, May 11-Yale de- .feated Harvard this afternoon in an ex- citing series of track events, constituting the annual meet between the two uni versailles. The score was: Yale 57; Har- yard AZ. The final and decisive scores were made in the last event, the pole vault, up to which decisive contest liar yard had a diminishing lead after the distance runs and the broad jump had been concluded.
 The great surprise of the day came in the two-mile race Yale had conceded it to Harvard and Harvards men were running in the first mile as if it was only question of which of them was to set the pace. At the seventh lap Rich ardson set fast squirting pace. Feel of Yale caught him on the stretch and in the straight-away passed him, clearing several feet at the tape. Gaines of Yale came in third, making a total of six points for the blue. where only one had been hoped for. The Yale record in this event was broken.
 The 100-yard dash proved to be fight to the finish between Hargrave of Yale and Lighncr and Webb of Harvard. The former won on the last quarter of the dash by an outlay of energy that was not expected. He repeated the perform ance in exactly the same way in the 22o- yard dash. In that event Dupee of Yale, a former crack sprinter, also came to time in sensational fashion, winning sec ond place.
 The mile run was Harvard's easily. In the broad jump Spraker of Yale was out classed by the Harvard contingent, three of whom divided the event.
 In the high jump Spraker beat out Ellis of Harvard.
 The shot-put was taken by Yale. The hammer throw was also Yale's entirely. The pole vault went at the comparatively low height of 10 feet inches to Yale.

 Considering the composition of the beer we have to say that it is distin- guished by a low percentage of alcohol high percentage of extract and by large percentage of albuminoids, as shown only by pure malt beers This, together with the pure taste of the beer, and it's very good flavor and foam-keeping quail ities, justify us in stating that the beer represents very good beverage, of highly nutritious character"
 Every beer thinker who sips the Fred Miller brew smacks his lips and exclaims "Eurekar' or something to that effect. It is really a great beer, and as Petersen remarked the other day: "It stands to reason that Milwaukee must always pro- duce the best beer The breweries there are surrounded by the barley fields. Other sections of the country must send to Mil waukee for raw material. Then the fa- nous Waukesha water Is close by and that is used in the manufacture of the beer.
