You'll be sorry you made me wear

son to his mother as he turned to go
upstairs.
A few mintes later a mufhed sound
was heard and fall. His mother
thought it was the slamming of door,
but asked the father to go up and see.
The boy was found dying on the floor,
with bullet hole clear through his
head behind the ear.
The suicide is one of the strangest
that ever took place here. The dead
boy was the son of T. T. Pearson. a
wealthy rancher living at Palouse and
Whitman streets, and was pupil in
the highest grade at the Sharpstun
school. He was recluse. associating
with no one but his father and mother,

very hard and was natural ornitholo.

Young Pearson disliked new clothes
and objected to wearing a cap which
his parents had purchased for him
He finally consented. however, reluct.
antly, then told his mother he had
some business upstairs. He is said
to have always had violent temper
but the condition which led to the eli
max is thought to have been coming
on for some time. The suicide was
committed with an extension % rife
pistol. The hoy shot himself while
standing, and fell with the pistol in
his hand. He died in 20 minutes. He
was an only son and had always been
INDUCED to the utmost. His parents

1 AM TIRED.
Everybody Is nred-Spring Wealth
er Does It--Every One Should
Be Cautions.

Depression of the nervous system at
the approach of spring is the cause.
General lassitude, dull, heavy sensa
tions, continual tired feeling, with ir-
regular appetite, and sometimes loss OF
sleep. Peruna meets every indication
and proves itself to be perfectly adapted
to all their varied peculiarities. Pc
runa invigorates the system, rejuve-
mates the feelings, restores the normal
appetite and produces regular sleep.
That tired feeling which is the nat
ural result of the depressing effect of
warm weather Immediately after the
invigorating cold of winter, quietly dis
appears when Peruna is taken. Thous-
ands are daily testifying to its priceless
benefit.
Mrs. H. Kassatt, 1909 W. 18th
street, Des Moines, Ia, writes: II am
happy to give my endorsement for your
valuable medicine, Peruna, as 1 consid-
or it valuable medicine to take when
the system is run down from oyerwork.
About two years ago felt that I must
take long rest as had been unable
to work for over month and could
not regain my strength. l could not
sleep at night and was in very nerv-
GUS, high strung, condition. decided
to try what Peruna would do to build
up my strength, and am pleased to say
that / began to improve very shortly,
and in less than two months was able
to take up my work, and felt better
than 1 have for years. take it now
twice year and find that it keeps me
In perfect health" Mrs. Kassatt was
fol over ten years the manager of a
plant furnishing ladies' wear and en-
Dloying hundreds of women.

col. WINSTON DIES.
Heart Failure Takes the Noted Law
yer, Orator, Editor and Humorist.

Spokane, April 4.-Patrick Henry
Winston, former attorney general of
Washington, former United States dis
trict attorney, and editor of Winston's
Weekly. died in this city Easter morn
ing at 1880 o'clock. In his passing
departed one of the best known men
in Washington-a man of brilliant
mind, of powerful eloquence. wonder
full humor and an ever ready flow of
wit. His eloquence had thrilled the
hearts of men and women from many
rostrums in many states, and his hui
NOR had delighted thousands.
Colonel Winston's death came sud
denly-as he had often expressed a
wish that it should. For several
months he had been suffering from in
digestion and heart trouble.
The news of Colonel Winston's
death will come as shock to hun
dreds of people, not only in the state
of Washington, but all over the east
and south. He enjoyed the acquaint,
ance of many of the leading men of
the nation, and probably no man had
SO wide an acquaintance in the state
of Washington. His -eloquence, his
humor, his power as an orator and his
Zone time activity in politics all com
bined to give him wide acquaintance
while in Spokane, where he had lived
since 1888, he was known either per
sonally or by sight to almost every
resident of the city.
Colonel Winston was born in the
town of Winsor, In BERTHE county
North Carolina, August 81, 1S47. ant
was accordingly over Sc years of age
His father. whose name likewise was
Patrick Henry Winston, was lawyer
of distinction in North Carolina.

perry with blood. Amidst this storm
the captain stood unmoved in the CON
ming tower, calmly telephoning orders
to the gun captains. His wonderful
calmness had a marvellous influence
upon all the officers. The cockpit was
soon crowded, SO being killed there be
fore the fight ended, but, amidst the
crash of the guns, the hiss of flying
projectiles, the thunder of explosion,
the racket of splinters and the din of
the working engines, the surgeons Ia
bored over the sick as at the hospital
operating table. Although some of the
men suffered frightful agony, there
were few groans in spite of the fact
that anesthetics were administered in
only one case.
when the battle ended and the
enemy began to draw off, the officers
on the bridge cheered and the cheer
ing extended down into the hold, the
stokers and even the wounded men
joining in.
"The captain signaled for full speed
ahead after the retreating Japanese,
but the Bayan had not gone far before
the flagship signaled to return"

Tired, Nervous Women.

There are thousands of them every

do them untold benefit. AS tonic and
