PE-RU-NA NECESSARY TO THE HOME.
PE-RU-NA Is A HOUSEHOLD
SAFEGUARD.
No Family Should Be Without 1t.
NERUNA is great family medicine.

DERU Ma is a great family medicine
- The women praise it as well as the
men; it is just the thing for the
many little catarrhal ailments of child
hood.
The following testimonials from
thankful men and women tell in direct,
sincere language what their success has
been in the use of Peruna in their fam
lilies:
Louis j. Scherrinsly, 103 Locust
street, Atlantic, Iowa, writes:
81 will tell you briefly what Peruna
has done for me. i took a severe cold
which gave me a hard cough. All doc
tors medicines failed to cure it. i took
one bottle of Peruna and was well.
"Then my two children had bad
coughs accompanied by gagging. My
wife had stomach trouble for years.
She took Peruna and now she is well.
Il cannot express my thanks in words,
but recommend your remedy at every
opportunity, for L can conscientiously
say that there is no medicine like Peru
ma. Nearly everyone in this town knew
about the sickness of myself and fam
lily, and they have seen with astonish-
ment what Peruna has done for u.s.
Many followed our example, and the
result was health. Thanking you
heartily, 1 am. IL. J. Sherrinsky.
Mrs. Mamie Wallace, Tulare, Cal ,
President of the Western Baptist Mis-
sionary Society, writes:
II consider Peruna an indispensable
article in my medicine chest. 1t is
twenty medicines in one, and has SO far
cured every sickness that has been in
my home for five years consider it of
special value to weakly women, as it
builos up the general health, drives out
disease and keeps you in the best of
health. Mrs. Mamie Wallace.
Peruua protects the family against
coughs. colds, catarrh, bronchitis, ca
tarrh of the stomach, liver and kidneys
1t is Just as sure to cure n case of catarrh
of the bowels as it is case of catarrh
of the head.

RAPID FLIGHT OF DREAMS.
Extraordinary Capacity of the Brain
in Slumber,

An eminent public man of England
whose mental faculties had been sub
Jected to TOO great strain and who suf-
fered greatly from mental depression
that amounted almost to. tine dlsease of
melancholia, was told by his physician
that he must rest his brain. He was Il
very busy man and scoffed at his doc
tors prescription of n nap in the mid
die of the day.
Finally, after much persuasion, he
agreed to this experiment: II would sit
in his easy chair every afternoon with
his hands on his knees, holding n din
nerbell in his hands. If he lost con-
sciousness and went to sleep he would
be willing to sleep for the period that
1t took for the dinner bell to fall to the
floor and wake him.
The doctor who suggested this ar
1ngement declared that the mere men
tai relaxation of going to sleep, II OIL
ly for n few seconds, would suffice to
save him. He invited his patient to
study the activity of the brain by no
ticing how many things he could
dream while the dinner bell was falling
to the floor.
Every day for many months the man
sat down after luncheon with the din
ner bell in his hands. Every day he
went 10 sleep, slept for half n second,
while the bell fell to the floor, and his
mental condition improved steadily,
Nirtly because of the rest which his
mind got through losing consciousness
for second and partly because of his
interest in the extraordinary dreams
which passed through his brain while
the bell was falling.

Electric Plant in India.

A power plant is now in operation
utilizing the water from the Cauvery
falls of India. The current is being
carried ninety miles away and there
made use of in gold mining. The diff
ficulties attending the erection OF this
plant and the transmission line were
enormous, nearly all the material be-
ing conveyed to the point by trained
elephants or on the backs of mules and
bulls. A path had to be cut through
a jungle infested by fierce animals
serpents and dangerous insects. One
of the most serious difficulties to over
come. Notwithstanding these terrors
was the superstitions of the natives
who regarded the river as sacred and
with great difficulty could be induced
to work on the project.

CHAMBERLAIN HONORED
On the Eve of His Departure For
South Africa

London, Nov. 1S.-COlonial Secretary
Chamberlain received a great ovation
last night at Birmingham, where a
farewell banquet on the occasion Of
his departure for South Africa was
given in his honor. Members of all
parties joired in the demonstration, as
the affair was of non-political char
acter.
Responding to tremendously enth /
siastic welcome, the colonial secretary
paid an affectionate tribute to mis- Amer
lean wife who, he declared, had sus-
tanned him by her courage, and chAcrrd
him by her sympathy He had found
in her lis best and truest counsellor
Referring to his approaching trip,
he said there was a possibility of fail
ure The governments desire was TO
make South Africa one united nation
united in heart as well as in name. He
hoped to see the representatives of
every political section i'll South Africa.
He could then learn more in three
days than in a months study of dis
patches in the blue books. He believed
that he would be met half way and that
he would gain the friendship of the
kings rev Boer subjects. He took a
very optimistic view regarding the fu-
ture of South Africa.
On the conclusion of Mr.. Chamber
Iains speech a torchlight procession
and fireworks display were held.
The streets were packed with thou
sands of people.

Rather curiously it appears that the
new King Edward shilling has found
its way to London from Belgium.
While not in general circulation as yet
in the Anglo-Saxon capital, a few of
them were paid out in the city within
the last few days, having arrived in
consignment Of coins received from
abroad.
The Bank Of England, it seems, was
not aware that there had been new
issue from the royal mint.
The new coin has the advantage of
being at least original in design. and,
while severely plain on the diverse, is
sufficiently decorative in its arrange
ment to lead us to hope that the medal
lists who have charge of the designing
and cutting of the dies from which the
British coins are struck are learning
something Of the delicacies Of the art
from the French.
1t is to be Presumed that they VIII
shortly be IN general circulation,
though furthg inquiry at the bank
draws forth no further information as
to when this nay be expected, and the
puzzle Is still unsolved as to how the
coins actually made their appearance
abroad before they were known in Lon
don.
