CATCHING COLD
Is the Beginning Of Most Winter
Ailments-Pe-ru-na Protects
Against and Cures Colds.

There is no fact of medical science
better established than that a teaspoon
full of Peruna before each meal during
the winter season will absolutely pro-
tect a person from catching cold. Now,
if this is true land there is no doubt of
it), thousands of lives would be saved,
and tens of thousands of cases of
chronic catarrh prevented, by this
simple precaution within reach of
every one.
After a cold has been contracted a
teaspoonful of Peruna every hour will
shortly cure it, leaving no trace of it
behind. After chronic eatarrh has be-
come established, or the first stages of
chronic bronchitis or consumption have
been reached, it will take much longer
to effect a cure.
1t seems strange that as well known
and well established as these facts are

Sisters.
The following poem by Capt ]. G.
Waters of Topeka was set to music and
coin day celebration at the auditorium:
Let incense rise and sacrifice
Smoke from the affairs to the skies:
And comrades old, and worn and grim,
Vo1ce once again a thankful hymn.
We meet to say as best we may,
In Lincoln's land, on Lincoln day,
Our words of cheer, and love to tell,
Ere hearts are hushed, in deaths
farewell.
OF those who sleep. beneath the deep,
On amber beds or coral steep,
Or under Arlington's great stone,
Their names to all but God unknown.
Of all who bore on sea. or shore
Old Glory as it glittered DER
The Martyred Lincoln's marching
men
And brave and true as they were
then.
OF banners gay that marched away
At Sumpter's gun to join the fray:
Of last good byes as on they strobe
Where turned the lane that hid the
road.
That mighty host it is our boast,
1t took the flag from coast to coast,
And on it's folds, all time may see,
Hurrah, hurrah, wrote Victory!
The tramp of feet, the drums that beat,
The iron hail that poured its sleet,
And one, who stood beside the helm,
No tempest's might could overwhelm.
On Pisgah's height just as the light
Unveiled a Canaan to his sigh;
He fell amid its clouds and snow,
Green fields beyond and peace below.
On heights of town, his column crown;
That on the ages shall look down
And which shall be till time shall
cease,
The worlds white pledge of lasting
peace.
And hand in hand. stand. Comrades,
stand,
On Lincoln Day in Lincoln land,
On dearest soil that feet have trod
And lift your voice in thanks to God!
And we have here, a comrade dear,
A soldier whom we all revere:
Who marched at Lincoln's bugle call
And through the strife was part of all.
A man of wars with wounds and scars
And all the Nation has of stars:
On sodden fields or days of doom,
Where tossed the flag, there rose his
plume.

that Mrs. Van Week has one of the
best hair manufacturing establishments

over the southwest by mail order and
by orders taken by travelling statesmen
From a small and insignificant begin
ming the factory has grown steadily to
larger proportions. Six expert workmen
are now employed Mrs Van Week en-
joys the patronage of the most promi-
nent society people of Topeka and this
vicinity.
A visit to Mrs. Van Weeks factory
will be found to be of interest Switches,
doll wigs and false hair goods of all
fingers of the girl workers entwine all
different colors, lengths and grades of
hair on linen threads. From the welt
the articles go to the steiner. Here they
get the little stem that is so important
to the preservation of the shape of the

f. A. BUSH APPEALS.
Takes His Liquor Case to the Su-
preme Court

Frank A. Bush, of Belleville, has ap-
pealed to the supreme court the case
in which he, as the head of the Kansas
Utopian association, was convicted of
violating the prohibitory law at Den
ton, Doniphan county. Bush was new
er in the Denton joint. or Utopian lodge
but he was backing the man who ran
it, and accordingly a Doniphan county
jury convicted him and Judge Stuart
sentenced him to 60 days in Jail and to
pay a fine of $500. 1t is from this de-
cision that he appeals.
1t is a somewhat noticeable fact that
the jointists who are hauled before
Judge Stuart generally get what is
coming to them, if the evidence is
against them.
If Bush could be convicted for violat-
ing the prohibitory law in connection
with each of the Utopian joints he had
running in the state until the supreme
court knocked them out, he would be
kept busy serving Jail sentences for the
rest of his natural life
