II. II. RODGERS A CONVERT.
Lawson's Target Said to Have En-
braced Christian Science.

New York. July 4.-Wall street
heard today that H. H. Rodg-
ers. the standard oil millionaire. who
has been the main target CT Thomas
Lawton's attacks in "Frenzied FL
nance" had become convert to
Christian Science.
No confirmation could be obtained
from Rodgers himself. and from the
side of the Christian Scientists the
only information obtainable was
from H. Cornell Wilson. who has lcng
acted as spokesman for that church.
He said:
81 never heard it intimated that
Mr.. Rodgers was to join us until tc-
day. have been asked by many per-
sons. but what truth there is in the
rrmor I cannot say. 1t may be that
he has quietly adopted our belief
without as vet identifying himself
with any particular church."

The New York judges who are de-
prived of part of their vacation by n
prompt prosecution OF the Equitable
grafters may find consolation in the
fact that they are contributing not
only to the fair name of New York,
but to the honor of the whole country.
The crime and scandal of the Equit-
able Life Assurance society are
known not merely throughout the
United States. but throughout the
civilized world.
Unless prosecution is prompt and
vigorous the world must be expected
to think that the financial commun-
ity of New York. which is the finan-
cial center Of this country. is made up
of men with no sense of honcr AMI
no regard for law.
Eminent financiers, statesmen, SEN
ators, governors, prominent journal
lists, all joined in the loot, and the
disgrace attaches to the entire finan
cial and political life Of the nation.
If the crime is to be passed ever
lightly the worlds confidence in us
must be shaken, but-worse still
our own self-respect must be shatter-
ed.
Are the methods of the Equitable,
of Standard Oil. of Steel trust, tn.
International Shipping trust so thorz
oughly intrenched that the law Is
powerless to punish them?
If so, then our law is a farce and
must become the laughing stock of the

ezuelan crisis carried this country
safely over a dangerous period in its
history.
He handled more delicate questions
requiring the maximum of diplomatic
tact than any other secretary OF state
since the civil war, notable am ,ng
these being the release of Miss Stone,
the missionary, after her capture IN
Turkey the Moroccan affair, when he
issued the famous 'Perdicaris alive
or Rasuli dead" ultimatum; the Santo
Domingo affair. and the developments
lust prior to the outbreak Of the w'r

Above all, he wiped the cohWebs'

by clean-cut straight dealing, having
no patience whatever with laborious
courses of the established diplomatic
methods abroad.

like Dr. Wilson says he doesn't be-

that he doesn't believe in bad style.
"Style" conveys to some minds only

The Greatest Family Medicine Ever

"The greatest family medicine ever
discovered, in my opinion, which comes
from experience as we'll as observation,
is Peruna. The most common affection
to humankind is bad cold. Peruna
drives it out of doors, wards off catarrh,

Powers Of Old Age.

In old age the mucous membranes be-
come thickened and partly lose tbeir
function.
This leads to partial loss of hearjng
smell and taste, as well as digestive dis.
turbances.
Peruna corrects all this by its specific
o,,eration on all the mucous mem branes
of the body.
One bottle will convince anyone. Once
used and Peruna becomes life,Aer

Pe-ru-na Contains no Narcotics
One reason why Peruna has found
permanent use in SO many homes is that
it contains no narcotic Of any kind. Pc
runais perfectly harmless. It can be
used any length Of time without acquir-

duce temporary results. 1t is permanent
in its effect.
