To neglect cold is to invite chronic
catarrh. AS soon as anyone discovers
the first symptoms of catching cold he
should at once begin the use of Peruna
according to directions on tho bottle,
and the cold is sure to pass away with
out leaving any bad effects.
Unless this is done the cold is almost
sure to end in the second stage of ca
tarrh which is making SO many lives
miserable. If Peruna was taken every
time one has cold or cough chronic
catarrh would be practically an I'M

AROUSED BY HIGH
PRICE OF MEAT
Secretary Brigham Says There
Is No Excuse For Prevailing
-Condition--People Should
Assert Their Rights.

Washington, d. c., Jan. 2.-"Public
Indignation has been thoroughly arous-
ed by the unwarranted prices charged
at this time for meat said Assistant
Secretary of Agriculture Brigham.
"When there was a scarcity of corn
and. cattle ruled at high prices there
was some excuse for the price demand
cd for meat, but now the price of cat
tie has been greatly reduced, and there
is no good reason why the price of
mcat should not be correspondingly
reduced. In view of the fact that re-
ports indicate large supply of cattle
on hand in Chicago and other markets
and that the wholesale price Of cattle
has been reduced very greatly, and
also that the large packers of Chicago
have reduced the price, 1t seems to me
that corresponding reduction should be
shown in the retail prices.
"If the people. will awaken to the
situation. and assert their rights, now
that there is plenty or corn and no
valid excuse for fancy prices, relief
will, | believe, promptly follow"

NEARER man
10 the Orang Outang Than the
Gorilla, According to
Prot. Wilder.

Washington. Jan. AT yesterdays
session of the American Association
for the Advancement of Science an in
teresting paper was read by Professor
Burt G. Wilder, of Carroll university,
before the section on zoology on
"Some Questions as to the Arrange
ment of the Primates."
According to the views advanced by
Professor Wilder there should be u
rearrangement in the present classi1-
cation of apes and man. The brain
he considers as affording the best cri-
terion on which to determine their af-
finities and divergences. Incidental
ly he showed that the brain of the
orang outang approached more near
ly that OF man, and that judged by
this character the orang outang
should rank next after man instead of
the gorilla.
