An lnfideI Died In Church.

Winamac, Ind.,, Jan. 22.-For
years Richard Bossy scoffed at re-
ligion or the existence OF God. To-
night he entered q church for the
first time in his life, to fall dead be-
fore the accusing finger and exhort.
ing voice OF the Rev. James McCarey,
an evangelist. Bossy, a confessed
infdel, entered the Methodist chapal
in Wilder's Station, near here, just as
the congregation was listing to q
iervid appeal from the clergyman.
He was e0out to take seat in''the
rear OF the church, but stood as
though transfixed when the Rev. Mr..
McCarey addressed him.
"Thsre is one unbeliever in this
congregation to night" thundered
the minister, "who cannot be saved
from eternal damnation unless he
becomes q Christian.
For a moment Bossy sweyed.
Then with q muttered cry he fell for
ward on bis face in the aisle. When
members OF the congregation re-
covered from their stupefsction they
ran to bis side. He was dead.

DON'T NEGLECT a COLD.
Neglected Colds Lead to Consumption.
How Consumption Develops.

Nine cases of consumption out of ten
occur in this way:
A person catches cold. The cold Is not
properly cured, and another cold is
caught.
This cold is dilly-dallicd with, either
by no treatment whatever or some treat.
ment that is Intellectual, and the cold
continues.
Then another cold Is caught and
cough develops. Cough syrupS are re-
sorted to, but they give only temporary
relief.
BY and by The patient gets tired of
taking medicines and cough syrups and
gives up in desnalr.
The coid continues to develop ard tho
couch grows worse.
Then the doctor is called in, only 10
discover that the patient is in the first
stages Of consumption,
1t was just in this way that Miss
Powell, of Aurora, Ind, became sick.
She caught a cold, and not considering
it serious, neglected il, thiuking as
many others do, thatitworld "wcaruir,"
However, IL c,ung 70 her tonaciaUsly,
and in two weeks she found her health
in n serious condition.
Fortunately, pcruna had hecn brought
to her notice, and she took course of
this remedy before ii was too late.
In o week the cough and cold were
broken, and Il three weeks treatment
completely restored her TO health.
This is what Peruna is doing all the
while. Not day, and probably not an
hour passes in which some one does not
have similar experience with Peruna.
Cure the Slight Colds and Avoid
Consumption.
The first step toward consumption is
cold. The next step is failure to cure
it promptly. The third step is the de-
velopment of catarrh, which gradually
becomes chronic. The fourth step, the
catarrh begins to spread from the head
to the throat, then to the bronchial
tubes, and finally into the lungs. 1t is
then consumption in the first stage.
Atany time during the progress of ca
tarrh, from the first onset of the cold to
its final settlement in the lungs, Peruna
can be relied upon to stop the disease.
" you have taken a cold, buy Peruna
without delay. One bottle in the be-
ginning will do more good than a half
dozen bottles after the catarrh has
fastened itself on the lungs.
Thousands of Testimonials.
We have on file thousands of testi.
monials from people who have been
cured of catarrh of the lungs by Peruna,
We can give our readers only slight
glimpse of the vast array Of unsolicited
endorsements we are receiving every
month. Mother physician in the world

siastic letters of thanks ss DR.. Har tmsn

The head, feet and hands are usually
the parts affected, though the disease ap-
pears on other parts of the body. While ex-
ternal applications allay the itching and
burning temporarily, it is the acids thrown
off by the blood that cause the irritation
and eruptions upon the skin. The acids
must be neutralized and the system cleans

cure is permanent.

TO WORK ON FOSSIL
ROCKS AT BERKELEY
First Shipment From Nevada
Received by Professor
Merriam.

BERKELEY, June 25.-Following the
stories of sea serpent discoveries
made recently iii the limestone beds OF
Nevada by scientists from the Univer-
sity of California, came the rocks them
selves in which the sea serpents" Were
imbedded to the university to-day. Pro-
fessor John c. Merriam, head of the pal
eontoiosical work of the university.
who directed the exploration party in
Nevada, superintended the unpackins
of fifty-six cases of rocks containing
the fossils of sea serpents."
DIR. Merriam explains that the sea
serpents" are merely the fossils of
saurian remains The shipment which
came to-day is the FIRST of several. The
limestones where the fossils abound
are of the Middle Triassic in the Hum
boldt range of mountains.
While ulany fossils of ichthyosauria
a swimming reptile of the prehistoric
age, now chirstened in dispatches from
Nevada as sea serpents," have been
found before by DR.. Merriam and his
assistants, he is hopeful that in the
rocks now awaiting his hammer and
chisel there will be uncovered new fea-
lures of the reptile, and that more val
u3bIe discoveries will result from his
work on the rocks. 1t will take about
two years of work in his laboratory to
bring out and reveal the fossils which
now cannot be distinguished except by
the eye of the archaeological expert.

WANT SALOON
LAWS CHANGED
Knights of the Royal Arch
Renew Efforts to Have
Permits Made Permanent

OAKLAND, June 23.-To amend the
liquor license ordinance so that saloon
keepers shall not be compelled to re-
new annually their permits to procure
municipal licenses is the move that the
knights OF the Royal Arch. an organi-
cation of wholesale and retail liquor
dealers, have inaugurated by petition
filed to-day with the City Council.
The petitioners have recited their de-
sire to assist the City Council in regu-
latien of the liquor traffic. They offer
to submit to limiting of the number
of saloons in the city to those now in
operation, and that, hereafter, no IL
censes shall be granted in excess OF
those now in force
1t is the purpose of the organization
to investigate all applications for
license permits, and to report the re-
end in view is contained in the follow
ing excerpt from the petition:
Resolved, That we urgently request the Coun-
Gil Of the city of Oakland to amend the liquor
license ordinance in force that provision
may be made by said ordinance that permit
for license when once granted shall operate
TO entitle The holder thereof to conduct the
liquor business at the place or locality fer
which the same Is granted so long as he shall
continue to carry on said business In an order
ly, lawful manner. without the necessity OF re-
newing euch permits every year. as now pro-
vided by said ordinance. and that In the event
the person TO whom the permit Is granted shall
sell or transfer his business, the person or
persons so purchasing such business, Il suitable
and proper persons. shall be entitled to carry on
the business under permit thercupCn to be is
sued to them.
The petition is almost a duplicate Of
one which was presented to the last
City Council, but it was filed without
action after opposition to the plan of
permanent permits was developed.

Two of the small children who are shell
tered in the home assert they heard d

The secretary in which the money had
been secreted was dragged from the di-
rectors' office into vacant room and

With the ala of a jimmy they pried
off the top of the desk and very quickly
reached the drawer that contained the
orphans mite An entrance to the build
ing was effected through window on the

found open this morning.
