r IKE A TERRIBLE CYCLONE grip
bacillus has passed over our coun-
try, from the Atlantic to the Pacific,
leaving behind it dark cloud of an
guish and despair.
Catarrh follows grip as effect follows
cause.
A multitude Of catarrh victims will
spring up in the trail Of the awful cpl
demic of grip that has just passed over
our fair country.
The hope to these people is Peruna. .
Most people know this already.
Everyone who has had the least touch
of grip, should not fail to take couxse
of treatment with Peruna.
Peruna eradicates every vestige Of the
disease and leaves the system in q nor
NAL condition.
Hon. Joseph B. Crowley, Congressman
from Illinois, writes from the National
Hotel, Washington, d. c., as follows:
"After giving Peruna fair trial can
cheerfully recommend your remedy to
anyone suffering with coughs, colds, Ia
grippe and all catarrhal complaints.n-
J. B. Crowley.
Hon. George 81. White, Congressman
from North Carolina, writes:
"I am more than satisfied with Peru
ma, and find it to be an excellent remedy
for the grip and catarrh. I have used it
in my family, and they all join me in
commencing it as an excellent rem

advised by friend to use your Peruns.

now cheerfully recommend your remedy
to anyone who is suffering from the grip
and catarrh. "-J. P.Megrew.
Miss Anna Russell, Past Worthy Coun-
selor, Lloyd Mystic Legion, 293 Endicott
Building, st. Paul, Mimi, writes:
For years have unfortunately found
my system in peculiarly receptive con-
dition for catarrh when was exposed
in any way to inclement weather. At
those times would be severely afflicted
with la grippe and its unpleasant con-
sequences.
Now for the past year and half I
have used Peruna in such cases and have
found that 1t not only cures me quickly,
but it also cleanses my blood and rem
ders me less liable to catch cold. It is
the finest preventative Of colds that I
know Of and a very superior tonic."-
Anna Russell.
Miss Emily Milburne, President Of the
Westside Young Woman's Club, No. 152
West Congress street, Chicago, Ill,
writes Of several members Of the club of
which she is president, who have had
the Grip and have been quickly restored
to health by Peruna.
Mr.. Nicolas F. Rossiter, Of 463 Nor
wood avenue, Cleveland, O., had severe
attack Of the Grip, was very sick and
under the physicians care. He, like
many others, passed the acute stage but
did not receive strength. Peruna not
only quickly restored him to his former
health, but to much better health than
he has had for years. he gives Peruna
all the praise.

One of the best corn yield records of
| the year has been made by Mr.. Henry
| Weber, on the old w. r. Stevens farm
! in Grant. He planted 1870 acres to the
yellow cereal, and the yield was 1000
bushels of good corn, which will bring
$4,000 cash. Mr.. Weber is still a
renter, but judging from the success
he has achieved since coming to Greene
county, the Bee thinks he will soon have
good farm of his own.
Clear Lake.
The Reporters mention of the
amount of building that is being done
in Clear Lake this year created much
surprise, the amount, $4,000, being
much greater that many people had
anticipated 1t finds now that there
were several improvements which it
overlooked, and in all probability the
total would amount to 100000. Where
is there a town of this size in the state
that can produce better record, asks
the Reporter.

The Anchor says: The Iowa Cen
trail is proposing to make big cut
thru Main street east of the track
to accommodate the sidetrack to the

set into the ground, as the mill door
is about two feet above the ground and
the floor should be level with the car
door, This necessitates cut all along
and will gouge hole in the road. The
council is taking measures to prevent
the making of the cut thru the road.

According to the Republican, Treas
urer vest states that the tax sale this
year was the smallest it has been in
years BY the time the sale was to
come off most of the land had been
redeemed and there was very slim
picking for the professional tax scor-
pion. Mr. Vest believes that farmers
have been more prompt this year than
ever In the payment and bases this
belief upon the small number of farms
advertised for tax-sale. Some of the |
townships did, not have single de-
llnquent and none of them had very
many, the delinquents mostly being in
town. !
