A CURIOUS SECT
VISIT TO PROSPEROUS AMANA
COMMUNITY OF IOWA.
Their Simplicity of Life and Peculiar
Beliefs - Rigid Separation
from the World Is
Enforced.

A simple. honest, devout people
known as Insuira ito sists are TO be found
in Iowa. At most picturesque and
productive spot on the Iowa river, not
many miles from Iowa City, five villages
OF these people thrive under the care

community. Everything is held in com

from which supplies are obtained and
everything used in the community IS
made or raised there. There are COM
mon kitchens at which all eat the sim
pie but wholesome fare provided
they salute each other as brother and
sister and practice the Christian
graces. While the home is as private
as anywhere in America. there is COM
mon interest which draws them together
as one great family. They believe that
religion should be of the heart and not
in the outward show, and wear the SIM
pie apparel of old Germany. from which
country the sect came in 1912.

the community gradually moved there,

But the special matter of interest at
this time is not the peculiarities of their
belief, or their simple habits, but the
fact that the younger generations grow

Peruna strikes at the very centre of
the difficulty, by eradicating the catarrh
from the kidneys. Catarrh is the cause
of kidney difficulty. Remove the cause
and you remove the effect. With
unerring accuracy Peruna goes right to
the spot. The kidneys are soon doing
their work with perfect regularity.

The great Chinese question will
sooI occupy public attention. The
Exclusion treaty with China expires
by limitation on the eth Of Deem
Der. AS China has formally denounced
the treaty a new one will have to be
formulated which will be acceptable
to both countries. 1t Is claimed that
many great employers OF labor
are in favor OF admitting the Chinese
and that new exclusion treaty has
no chance Of being ratified 1t is al
ready proposed to import some 10000
Chinese into the canal zone OF Pana

hardly be conducted with out their

good enough for the United States,
