Fastest Traveller In the Brotherhood
Of Snakes.
"The swiftest snake l have ever
known is the blue racer as we used
TO call the reptile in the Arkansas foot
hills, and l want to tell you, this par
ticular snake can travel like ID blue
streak" said a man from Arkansas.
''The fact is. the name blue racer
was given to the snake because of the
members fieetness. ! have seen blue
racers dart across the road at such a
rapid pace that you would only see a
mere suggestion of blue, and II you
did not happen to know the snake and
its habits you would not know what
It was. You could not possibly get
the idea that It was a snake you had
seen fash through the dust Of the
country road unless you knew some
thing OF the blue racer Just what
speed the snake makes ! do not know,
but It is a rapid pace. The rattlesnake
is supposed to have good speed, and
as a matter of fact the rattler can
whiz along at a pretty swift gait. But

Their first visit was to the Baptist

later lunched with President Vann.
Later they had one of the most re-

University. Though it was recreation

The Many Phases Of Catarrh.
Catarrh may appear in the household
in the form of slight cold or cough, an
attack of Ia grippe, or even hay fever.
Peruna meets these invasions squarely
and repulses the enemy before it gains
foothold.
Therefore, Peruna is household rem
edy. Used at the correct time it often
obviates the necessity Of continued
doctoring.
Perhaps in no other way can the wis
dom of economy and foresight be so
forcibIy expressed as in keeping on
hand bottle of Peruna to protect the
various members of the family against
the encroachments of catarrh.
We have on file thousands of testi-
monials from heads of families, located
north and south, east and west.
These letters praise Peruna for its
efficient protection of the family against
catarrh.

A View From Warren.

To the Editor:-Now. that the end
of the stubbornly contested legal bat
tie of Gattis VS.. Kilgo has been
reached. | feel like quoting from the
celebrated speech of Robert Goodloe
Harris made in 1905 in defense of
Judge Chase: What remains of the
accusation? 1t has dwindled into
nothing. 1t has been scattered by the
rays of truth, like the mists Of the
morning before the effulgence of the
rising sun. Touched by the spear of
investigation it has lost its gigantic
and terrifying form and has shrunk
into = toad" Yours truly

were the fullest Investigations and
there was a trial in which everything
was brought out In the Gattis VS.
