Of Chicago as a prominent lodge man, being
a member of the X. It's and also Of the
Masons. The cut shows Colonel Moody

In a recent letter from 5000 Michigan
avenue, Chicago, ILL.,, Mr.. Moody says the
following;
"For over twenty-five years suffer-
ed from catarrh, and for over ten years
suffered from catarrh Of the stomach
terribly.

and have been treated by all kinds Of
doctors, as thousands of my acqnalnt-
ances are aware In different parts of
the United States, where have traVel-

until little over year ago started to
to take Perunn, and at the present time

years.
1.-THE soreness has left my sto mach

my wife, as many in the southwest
can say, was troubled with a bad cough
and bronchial trouble, and doctors all over
the country gave her up to die, as they
could do nothing more for her. She began
taking Peruna with the result that she is
better now than she has been in years,
and her cough has almost left her entirely.
The soreness has left her lungs and she
is as we'll as she ever was in her life, with

must save the people. To save the people
we must protect them from disease. The
disease that is at once the most prevalent
and stubborn of cure is catarrh.
II one were to make a list of the different
names that have been applied to catarrh
in the different locations and organs. the

WEEKLY BULLETIN OF CROPS
Districts East OF Rocky Mountains
Favored by Weather Not Too
Warm nor Too Cold.

WASHINGTON. May S-The weekly
crop bulletin of the Weather bureau Is as
follows:
Respecting temperature the week ending
May 70 in the districts east of the Rocky
mountains was the most favorable of the
season and the first in which there has
been no complaint of lack OF warmth in
some some part OF the area. Heavy rams from
oklahoma and Arkansas northward to
minnesota and the Dakotas have retarded
work in these districts.
Drouth has been largely relieved in the
Ohio valley, the lake region and the south
ern portions of the middle Atlantic states,
but continued with greater severity over
the northern portion OF the last named
district and in New England. while light
rains would be beneficial generally through
out the gulf states.
In the Rocky mountain and Pacific coast
cool with heavy frosts and considerable
snow in the central and northern districts
Good progress has been made with corn
Wisconsin, but to the westward wet
weather has prevented the completion Of
this work, which is much delayed, while
the drouth has prevented termination and
planting in the middle Atlantic states and
New England In the southern states the
crop has made favorable progress.
In the southern portions of Missouri and
Kansas winter wheat has suffered some
deterioration, but elsewhere in these states
and in Nebraska the crop continues in
In Michigan and Wisconsin decided i'm,
provement Is reported and in Pennsylvania
1t has withstood the drouth better than
other crops
Winter wheat is now heading in the
more northerly districts, the reports from
the Ohio valley and middle Atlantic states
indicating that II is heading low. On the
Pacific coast the crop is backward in Wash
ington and Oregon, but has improved in
the first named states; In California slight
! damage has been done by drying winds.
In the Dakotas, Minnesota, Iowa and Ne
braska spring wheat has made rapid
| growth and Is In very promising condi-
| ton. In the north Pacific coast states the
| crop is backward.
In the states of the Missouri valley oats
have made favorable growth and a de-
| cided Improvement is reported from Michi.
gan and Illinois. In the Ohio valley and
| middle Atlantic states the outlook is less
| promising. Harvesting Is general in south
| ern Texas Georgia and Florida.
There has been a general Improvement In
| the outlook for cotton, particularly in the
middle and western districts. but the croT
| is generally late.
