u. S. SENATOR FROM SOUTH CAROLINA
Recommends Pe-ru-na
For Dyspepsia and Stomach Trouble.
Catarrh Of the Stomach Is Generally
Called Dyspepsia. Something to
Produce Artificial Digestion
Is Generally Taken.
Hence. Pepsin. Panercatin and a Host
Of Other Digestive Remedies
Has Been Invented.
These Remedies Do Not Reach the Seat
Of the Difficulty, Which Is
Really Catarrh.

Ok. Y. S. Senator NJ. c. Butler from
IL South Carolina, was Senator from
that state for two terms In re-
cent letter to The Peruna Medicine Co,
from Washington, d. c., says:
81 can recommend Peruna for dys.
pepsia and stomach trouble. Ihave
been using your medicine for q Short
period and I feel very much relieved.
IL Is indeed q wonderful medicine be.
sides good ionic. "---M. c. Butler.
The only rational way TO cure dyspep-
STA is 10 remove the catarrh. Peruna
cures catarrh. Peruna does not produce
artificial q digestion. 1t cures catarrh and
leavesthe stomach to perform digestion
in natural way. This is vastly better
AMI safer than resorting to artificial
methods.
Peruna has cured more cases of dys-
pepsia than all other remedies com
bined, simply because it cures catarrh
wherever located. Ifcatarrh il located
in the head, Peruna cures il. If catarrh
has fastened itself in the throat or
bronchial tubes. Peruna cures it. When
catarrh becomes settled i'm the stomach,
Peruna cures it, as we'll in this location
as in any other.
Peruna is not simply remedy for
dyspepsia. Peruna is catarrh remedy.
Peruna cures dyspepsia because il Is
generally dependent upon catarrh.

to the inability of some of the members

Declares That St. Louis Leader
Was Not Talking to Persons
Who Knew the Facts.
SPEAKING FOR A PAMPHLET"
Magazine Writer Says He Did
Not Gather Material fer
"Shamelessness of st.
Louis" From Mr.. Folk.

REPUBLIC SPECIAL.
Kansas City, No., NOV. 19.-Lincoln Stef-
fens, managing editor of McClure's Maga-
zine and the author of an article, entitled
The Shamelessness of st. Louis said
here to-day in answer to Harry Hawes' S
attack on Circuit Attorney Folk at Han
nibal last night:
''Mr. Hawes was not talking to any one
who knew the facts; he was addressing
the readers of $4,000 copies of. pamphlets,
which his speech Is to become. and 1t is
not for me to answer. Mr.. Folk or some
one else who knows the facts Will do that.
''Only about 100 of the 1000 words con-
cern me. Mr. Hawes says: Eastern mag
azine writers came to st. Louis, dined
with Mr. Folk, visited him at his home
and, returning, wrote descriptions of the
corruption of the city of st. Louis and
painted Mr.. Folk as the one incorruptipie
and honest official who, standing alone,
was defying not only the forces of corrup-
ton himself, but was doing it without the
sympathy and support of our people.
only one Eastern magazine writer took
any such view, and that one was myself
in McClures, which is not an Eastern,
but national magazine; and as for my
self, / am a Western man. I did not say
that Mr.. Folk was the one incorruptible
and honest official 1 did imply that his
incorruptibility and honesty and his devo-
ton to duty made him shine out among
officials not only in St. Louis, but in the
whole United States, and that view of him
has been taken since throughout the coun-
try.
"And why not? The doing of his duty
by Mr.. Folk seems to me to be causing
revolution in Missouri. and 1t has inspired
movement all over the country against
corruption. But these are not the main
points.
THE charge that hurt in my article was
that Mr.. Folk stood alone in his fight
with corruption and had not the sympathy
of the, community. Ny words were not
those of Mr.. Halves. but we both mean
the same thing I meant to say that not
only other officials. the boodlers. the ring
and Mr.. Halves did not give Mr. Folk sup
port. but that the citizens of St. Louis
were shameless. Not apathetic, mind you.
nor Indifferent, but that they did not take
home to themselves any part Of the blame
for the shameful state Of things disclosed
In st. Louis That was what was meant
in !, the phrase. the shamelessness of st.
Louis
$50 far, then, Mr.. Hawes is right. But
when he tries to make 1t appear that Mr..
Folk inspired this view, he does an in
justice to Mr. Folk and to me- That was
my view, not Mr.. Folks. Mr.. Folk op-
posed it He said the people were all
right; their leaders might be false. but 50
per cent Of the people were honest. And
it seems now that he was pretty near the
truth
The people of st. Louis and the people
OF Missouri generally have been aroused
since. but at that time they seemed to me

porting their progress Several of the
committeeman expect to turn over to the
fund contributions ranging from $50 to
$500 by the first of the week. AS the set
Ting day for the fund is not until Decem-
ber /, there is time for thorough can
vass of every line of business in the city.
COLLECTIONS IN CLUBS.
In the clubs of the city the collection Of
the fund is going rapidly and one who is
in touch with the committeeman stated
yesterday that the amount already Sc
cured was considerable although the whole
field had not yet been covered.
In the State, the correspondents of The
Republic report that the Mayors of the
smaller towns and some of the county Of
ficials are making every effort to reach
a high mark in the contribution to the
fund
1t is understood that the matter of
testimonial has not been brought to the
attention of all the small towns and ef-
forts along this line will be made by those
who are looking after the State contribu-
tons. 4 circular letter will be sent to
those who are known to be at work on
the fund as well as to those who have not
been asked to take the matter up and a
request made that they forward their
funds as fast as they are raised to The
Republic or the treasurer of the commit
tee appointed by Mayor Wells.
There will be large sum raised by pop
ular subscription In the retail stores and
manufactures of the city. as many of the
lists are already approaching completion
and will be sent to the treasurer in few
days.
Few of those asked to serve on the sub
committees have refused, except in the
case of those who were to be absent from
the city during the period of the collection
of the fund. and most of these made
personal contribution to the fund with
their letters of appreciation and declina-
tien of the honor of place on the COM
mittees r
Nothing has been heard from several of
the most important committeeman. though
1t is understood that silence means assent
in this as other such matters and 1t is az.
srrned that they are at work and will
turn in their results as soon as they have
covered the field assigned to them.
