The most careful person is oftentimes
the one who suffers oftenest with colds
and coughs.
A draught will creep in in spite of all
care, damp winds will penetrate. and
sudden sore throat, full. puffy, stopped
up feeling in the head, or a disagreeabie
hacking cough will be the result.
Winter weather and colds seem but
natural cause and effect.
There are a great many remedies for
colds.
Remedies guaranteed to cure cold in
day, to stop a cough Immediately are
plenty. but there is one remedy that not
only cures coughs and colds promptly,
but fortifies the system against future
attacks.
This remedy is Peruna
Peruna not only cures cold quickly
and permanently. but it so heals and
strengthens the infiamed mucous mem
braneS that one is much less liable to
catch cold than before taking it.
1t is an ideal safeguard for all winter
diseases. One half the ills Of winter
are caused directly by an infiaraed con-
ditfon of the mucous membrane of some
part of the body. The mucous MEM
brane lining the nose, throas and lungs
are often affected in winter.
A remedy that acts benenCiaIly on
these infiamed membranes would be
logical cure for these diseases. With
healthy mucous membranes no one need
fear the most severe eather.
Catarrhal diseases cannot exist when
Peruna is used. and kept on hand dur
ing the winter months.
Matilda Hogan, daughter of Postmas-
ter at Woodslee. Ont, writes:
Following close upon a severe cold,
contracted a few months ago, I had
constant dull headaches, considerable fe-
yer and a feeling of extreme lassitude,
soreness in the joints and loss of appe-
tite and sleep. I was simply sick all
over, but two bottles of Peruna cured me
and made me feel altogether different
The bad symptoms disappeared in short
order and was soon restored to perfect
health, all through a few bottles of Pc
runa. Since that time a number of my
friends have been taking Peruna and
all seem to feel well satisfied with the
results Matilda Hogan.
Mrs. Chas Steinecle,- Stoughton,
Wis, writes:
My experience with Peruna has been
most pleasing. BY carelessly leaving

ed and caught a heavy cold which set
tied on my lungs. 1 wore a protector.
took many remedies for colds without
success. With my other troubles I had
catarrh of the head. Peruna was rec
commended to me, and I bought a bottle,
and soon began to improve, and kept on
taking it and it cured me from all my
troubles. am most pleased to testify
to its merits" Mrs. Chas. Steinecle

KANSAS CITY TO WICHITA.
Orient Main Line to Be Built Through
Kansas at Once.

Construction work viii begin at once
upon that part of the Kansas City, Mex
leo & Orient railroad between Kansas
City and Wichita Kas. 1t is the inten-
ton Of Mr.. Stilwell and his associates
to push the work of construction of the
main line as rapidly as possible. MI
Stilwell's alliance with the Gould inter-
eStS and his connection with the Swift
Armour interests has given his railroad
project an Importance which can now
scarcely be estimated. The building Of
the line from Kansas City to WichitS
has been delayed by litigation with the
Atchiscn. Topeka & Santa Fe railroad
over the right to cross that cOmpany's
tracks at Emporia, Kas The supreme
court affirmed the right of the Orient to
a crossing, and the last obstacle to the
construction of the line has been re
moved. TIE line will be completed IN
time to connect with the outer terminal
belt line, which is to be built at once
That part of the line between Kansas
City and Wichita will take in the towns
of Lawrence, Emporia, Ell Dorado Yates
Center and Wichita. The Orient now
has a line in operation between An
tfCny, Kas., and a point a short dis
tance this side Of Sweetwater, Tex.
Mr.. Stilwell is waiting only for the
Kansas City, Kas.. city council to pas,
franchise bill to begin construction
upon the outer belt terminal system.
From the point where the proposed
bridge is to land in Kansas City, kas..
near the Maple Leaf elevator the COM
pany has secured, by purchases and con
formations, d right of way through the
city to Kerr's park at Eighteenth street
and Minnesota avenue, and from there
on to the Kaw valley.
By this route the outer belt will tap
every line of railway entering Kansas
City from the north and west and also
give entrance to the city for the Kan
SaS City, Mexico & Orient.

CROCKER ALSO CHOSEN
Was Formerly Vice President of
Sdlthern Pacific.
Orient My Use NJ. p. Tracks to
Kansas City.

Kansas CITY, Mo. Dec. 1.-TWO more
railroad nm of national standing have
been addedto the directorate of the Kan
sas city. Iexico & Orient railroad. Pres
ident A. Z StilweI wired from New York
yesterday morning, calling a meeting of
the executive committee to elect Russell
Harding, the general manager and vice
president OF the Missouri Pacific, and
George rocker. former vice president OF
the SoupeIn Pacific and one of the build
ers of tie Central Pacific. as members o.
the bossd of directors The meeting was
held la in the afternoon and the action
taken.
This lives the Orient directory of the
leading railroad men in the country The
two Lest additions make SIX that have
been dded since Mr. Sti1weu returned
from Europe several months ago. The
other We're George Gould, Warren
Proug, the former president of the Rock
1slar J. {. Oden, former assistant man
agerof the Northern Pacific and general
mauger of the Baltimore x Ohio and F.,
+. Dickinson formerly general man.
age of the Union Pacific.
TIE adding of the new members to the
boFd has no special significance in the
w of alliances 1t simply means the
aditiOn of two more men of money and
experience who will make the Orient di-
retOry still stronger and the road more
pwerful. Mr.. Harding spent a couple of
dys in Kansas City last week and held
fveral conferences with Mr.. Stilwell at
nat time. An agreement was reached be-
ween them then. With the Missouri Pa
life general manager a director, that
road will become more factor in the vel
fare of the Stilwell route and it tends
to revive the report that the Orient may
use the Missouri Pacific tracks from
Wichita into Kansas City. The officials
of the road say that all plans as to con-
struction would be carried out. Thirty
miles have already been graded, but re-
CARELESS of this. Orient trains over Mis-
souri, Pacific tracks from Wichita would
not be a surprise to railroad men.
George Croker is a New York capitalist
and stands high in railroad and financial
circles He has been identified with many
of the leading railroads of the country
With his father he was one of the build
e-s of the first road over the Sierra Ne
vada mountains.
Tho St Joseph Gazette claims to have
positive Information that the Kansas City.
Mexico & Orient railway will enter St.
Joseph over the double tracks of the
Union Terminal company. The Gazette
says
Announcement was made last week that
tho Chicago & Alton Wabash and Frisco
would enter the city over the Union Ter
minal tracks,, and now with the addition
of the Orient railroad four new roads will
enter this city
"The Kansas CITY, Pittsburg & Gulf rail-
road to Port Arthur is another line which
IS to use the new double track to St Jo-
seph. The Belgian capitalists who are
represented by President Knox are eager
to. secure share of the lucrative traffic
of the Missouri river section. Confirma-
tion comes from various sources that

packers are behind the railroad DEAL
