First Presbyterian Church of Greensboro, Ca and 1s

l. nenee hesitated to give their testi-
monials to proprietary medicines for
publication. This remains trus to-day
of most proprietary medicines. But Pc
runa has become so justly famous, its
merits are known to so many people of
high and low stations, that no one hest

The highest men In our nation have
given Peruna a strong endorsement.
Men representing all classes and sta

A dignifed representative Of the
Presbyterian church in the person of
Rev. E. G, Smith does not hesitate to
state publicly that he has used Peruna
in his family and found it cured when
other remedies failed. In this state

elder in his church.
Rev. L. G. Smith, pastor of the Presby-
terrain church OF Greensboro, Ca.
writes:

for some time it gives me pleasure to
testify to its true worth. My little boy
seven years of age had been suffering

AVENUE HOUSE RA1DrD

St.'Johnsbury, Dec. 12.-The big.
gest sensation that has been sprung on
tnlS community for some time was
caused by the raiding of the
Avenue House and the arrest of
the proprietor F. NJ. Black. The raid
was made by deputy sherifrs and DO.
lice officers Mr.. Black was served
with body writ after which search
was made, resulting in the discovery
OF between 5000 and $500 worth of
liquors mostly bottled. Mr.. Black
affirmed that the liquor was kept for
the travelling public and not intended
for local consumption. This seems to
be.the general impression about town
also.
Mr.. Black appeared before Judge
Munson in county court and furnished
$1,000 bail pending hearing Of the
case. His attorney is II. B. Howe
and his bondsmen are Capt. L.
l.. llovey and Frank M. Carr.
This episode has caused no end of
comment and there is considerable
feeling over the matter about town
as Mr.. Black has given ST.. Johnsbury
the best hotel she has ever had.
