Soys Dr.. N. C. Gee of San Francisco.

A CONSTANTLY increasing number OF
n physicians prescribe Peruna in their
regular practice.
1t has proven its merits SO thoroughly
that even the doctors have overcome their
prejudice against so called patent medicines
and recommend it to their patients.
81 Advise Women to Use Peru ma.
Says DR.. Gee.
Dr. NJ. C. Gee is one of the physicians
who endorse Peruna. In letter written
from 513 Jones street. San Francisco. Cal.
he says:
There is a general objection on the part
of the practicing physician to advocate
patent medicines. but when any one medi-
cine cures hundreds OF people, 1t demon
strates its own value and does not need the
endorsement of the profession.
"Peruna has performed so many
wonderful cures In San francisco that
I am convinced that II Is a valuable
remedy. Ihave frequently advi- ed its
use for women, as lind IL i1surrs
regular and painless nIensfruafion,
cures ieucOrrhea and ovarian troubles,
and builds up the entire system. l also
consider it one of the finest catarrh remedies

lowing:

great event at Kansas City was the first
professional match in which he was ever
entered. Mr.. Diefenderfer's business Is
such that he finds little time for shooting,
and when at home it is seldom that he
secures any practice. Mr.. Diefenderfer had
no intention Of entering the big shoot
until two days before it took place. He
went to Kansas City to look after some
business and while there decided to enter
the handicap. BY winning the great ma
ti0nal event Mr.. DiefeDderfer secures 1910
in money, a fine solid gold watch valued at
500, and in addition the Lefever Arms
company presented him with a $500 gun
in recognition Of the advertisement that
it received by Mr.. Diefenderfer winning
the event, Mr.. Diefenderfer having used
one of its guns. Already Mr.. Diefenderfer
has received several offers from different
gun companies to represent them at shoot
ing tournaments. Mr.. Diefenderfer is 80
years old and has been married five years.

had come to Rome on the occasion. There
were invited Counts Camille, Ricardo and
Lodovico, with their families, together with
Commentators Sterbini, the intimate major
domo, or chamberlain, of the pope. OF
course, say the Rome papers, Leo XIII did
not sit at the table, mainly on account of
his health. But after the dinner the sew
eral families were received by the pope,
who conversed for 6 long while with them
in his apartments. Leo XIII spoke espe-
cially with his nephews OF his life and Of
his youth, with a surprising memory. Often
the pope likes to have a chat with his
nephews, and it is not rare when he sum-
mons them, by his major domo, to whom he
says, smiling: Tell those boys to come
over" and those boys" it must be remem-
bered, have white hair.
Mayor Schmitz of San Francisco tells Of
an u~ntiring politician who demanded a
position. To escape him and kindred men
the mayor had hied himslf to the suburbs.
And in the suburbs the applicant halted
the mayor. The politician placed his cane
behind him and rested on it as a seat. Bet
ter opportunity had never been presented
for arguing his just claim. His fdgeting
caused the cane to move slightly. Yes,
sir" said the Office seeker, 81 am enti-
tied to a position in the city's service and
am looking for an opening"
us there any kind of work to which you
are adapted?" asked the mayor.
The maj took courage from the question
and said that any kind of an opening would
suit.
BY this time the mans unsteadiness had
brought the cane, which was bearing his
weight, precariously near a knot hole. The
mayor thought. In expectancy the applicant
shifted his position. The next instant he
was endeavoring to follow his cane through
a hole in the board walk.
There said the mayor, very much re-
lieved, lis an opening for you. Try ami fill
1t; II you don't succeed, see the Board of
Public Works.

Apropos OF President Roosevelt's fond

as police commissioner is told by a SER
geant now on the force. 1t seems that the
wife CT a policeman who had just been fined
a weeks pay for drunkenness appeared one
day in the commissioners office, accom-
panied by three neatly dressed and attrac-
tive looking children. Her pitiful story OF
back rent, which the subtracted wages was
to have paid, and the sight Of the children
moved Mr.. Roosevelt's sympathy, and, TAX
ing out his pocketbook, he gave to the
woman the amount her husband had been
fined. The next day the husband appeared
at headquarters and was asked BY a brother

for the "thoroughfares were lined every
where with throngs who had come out to
cheer the man who has made himself and
his administration Of the nations affairs so
popular. Mr.. Roosevelt was touched by
tho expressions OF the people, for he said
that nowhere in his career has he been
given a more cordial reception than in Ne
braska, and Nowhere in Nebraska did the
people show more enthusiasm in their
greet ng than in Omaha. Many little minor
incidents might be Tecounted as showing
the real nature of the attitude of the peo-
pie toward the president, and Of his appre-
citation Of the confidence and esteem he has
won from the citizens Of his country. but
the pictures tell the story better than
words. A word Of explanation is needed
Tor some OF the pictures. Never did ph1-
tographers work under more adverse or dis
couraglng circumstances than those who
made the pictures for The Bee. Not only
did they have to contend with the throngs
and the wind, but the light was extremely

failed entirely, so far as Photographic uses
are concerned. Under the conditions. the

Chief Justice Wiswell Of the Maine SUI
preme court says there must be an end to
the hypocrisy which collects fines from
liquor dealers, but allows them to continue
In business in defiance of the prohibition
law. Heretofore, the trafic in liquor in
that state has been conducted on a quasi
license system. That is to say, while the
sale is absolutely forbidden, dealers have
been allowed to sell with the understand
ing that once or twice a year they should
submit to arraignment in court, convic-
tion and the payment OF a fine. Thus the
state gets the money and the dealers get
exemption for their trade. The chief JUS
tice makes announcement that this state
OF things must come to an end and the
humbug Of half a century seems to be ex-
ploded.

their home, but forty-three years later they
celebrated their golden wedding anniversary
in Cheyenne county. Nebraska, surrounded
by children and ncighbnrs, who rejoiced
with them In the happy event. MIR. Johnson
is still a hale and hearty man, although
he has endured hardships and privations
more than fall to the lot of even the pio-
neer. In 1860 he left his native state to
settle in the comparatively new state OF
Iowa. In 1863 he enlisted in the Thirty
sixth Iowa infantry, and within a year
was in a rebel prison, where he remained
ten months, being released by the close
of the year. His energy unimpaired and
his health restored, he and his good wife
began life again, and prospered on their
farm. Seventeen years ago Mr.. johnson
gave up their Iowa home and came to

ranch until about a year ago, when they re-
moved to Sidney, where they are now maxi
