MISS LIZZIE SNEATHING
Or. Hartman, the Famous GynacoIo-
gist and Inventor Of Pe-ru-na, o.
fers to Treat Women Free During
the Summer Months.
.-w&

America is the land of nervous women
The great majority of neEyous women are
so because they are suffering from some
form of female disease. BY far the great
est number of female troubles are caused
by catarrh.
Women afflicted with pelvic catarrh de-
spair of recovery Female trouble is so
common, so prevalent, that they accept it
as almost inevitable. The greatest obsta-
Gle in the way of recovery is that they do
not understand that it is catarrh which is
the source Of their illness. In female COM
plant, ninety-nine cases out of one hun
dred are nothing but catarrh. Peruna
cures catarrh wherever located.
The following letter was recently re-
ceived:

An actor who was accustomed to
spend his summers in Wilton, Me-, noted
when, as the custom was, farmer kill
ed critter," the liver, sweetbreads, kid

ed to purchase these delicacies, but,
though he got the goods, the Sturdy

a wondering, if not admiring crowd,

every 200 acres to be irrigated, OF pay
The irrigation companies a sum OF
never more than $3.50 per acre to
water their lands. If the land is
owned by the companies they furnish
land. seed and water for One-half the
crop, or furnish water only to any
farmer for one-ffth OF one-fourth of
his crop.
The average cost of cultivating an
acre of rice is $40. and it yields $50 to
$40 per acre, so that nearly every man
who leases a farm one season owns it
the next if he has an average good
crop.
Nearly all the big mills and irrigating
systems are owned by organizations
of farmers who protect their own in
terests and prevent the eating up of
property on the mortgage system by
outside capitalists. They also own
great warehouses for storing rough
rice, so that they need not be COM
PEELED to throw their rice upon the
market when corner has been made
or a full market has lowered the price.
Besides the average price of 1928 and
upward for rough rice delivered at the
railway station, rice bran sells for ST.
per ton. the polished rice for $40 per
ton, while rice straw is used as fOd-
de-. Attempts to make white paper of
the straw have proved so successful
that there is a slow but steady move
ment toward the erection of paper
mills in rice sections where the straw
can be had almost for the asking.
Nothing about rice need be wasted

TOteIns and Mascottes.

The totems cherished by some Of the
Indian tribes suggest the French mas
cote. A totem" is the generic word
for class of material objects which
a savage regards with superstitious
awe, under the belief that between
him and every member Of the class
there exists an intimate relation. Tile
totem may be wolf, beaver. a buff
falO salmon, a snake, the wind,
birch-bark, the leaves of trees, the sui
Of the snow. But whatever it happens
to be, the connection between it and
it's protege is mutually beneficial. The
totem protects the man, and the man
testifies his esteem for his protection
by not killing it should it be an animal,
and not destroying it should it be a
plant.

In the northern part of Japan the
crow is worshiped. The crow will fly
into the huts of the Ainu at meal
times and help itself to whatever it
takes a fancy to in the way of food, OF
alight in the street on the bundles Of
fish a woman may be carrying on her
shoulder, and satisfy her hunger on
the spot. The native would not dream
Of disturbing it OF checking its depre-
dations. The people believe that, after
the Good Spirit had created the world
the evil one saw that man would die il
deprived of light and the heat Of the
sun. so he made up his mind to get up
one morning before the sun had risen
and swallow it. But the Creator knew
of his intentions and caused crow to
defeat this malicious project. AS the
evil one came along with his mouth
open to gulp down the sun crow flew
into it, and so saved the sun. Thus the
crow is held to have perpetual claim
on the gratitude and devotion of the
human race. In China the sun and the
moon, as also the wind and thunder,
are worshiped and temples erected in
their honor
