Seven of the football team OF
Harvard have come to the sensible
conclusion of laying aside the rough
game of football to take up the in
dependent profession OF farming.
They have purchased 10000 acres OF
fine land in the Valley OF Virginia,
and being graduates OF agriculture,
will conduct their joint farm on
scientific principles, and no doubt
they will succeed. At any rate they
will find it more profitable and less
dangerous to life and limb than the
exciting game OF football.

The funds of the City of Lewiston
can be controlled by the council and
placed in the bank that will pay the
best interest for the same. That is
the gist OF the decision Of City Attorney
Cox as given at the council meeting
last night. The Legislature passed a
bill authorizing counties to deposit their
money in banks that will pay interest
on the daily deposits. This law will go
into effect in January Discussion OF
the new law led to the action of the
city council relative to the city deposits
and raised the question as to whether
the council had the authority to dis
pose Of the city money or whether the
funds were in the exclusive control Of
the city treasurer. The decision last
night from the city attorney covers this
ground and decides in favor Of placing
the funds with the banks giving the
best interest on the daily balances. This
will be followed by some definite action
calling for bids for the use of the city
money

COMPROMISE:

Special Correspondence.

N'l''Niai correspondence.
Washington. y. c.. Nov. 24.-It is an
harentiy the intention of opponents as
vel as friends of rate legislation this
winter to deluse congress with bills on
the subject, There VIII be several com
promise bills introduced ia HE ho,isa
and more in the senate. IL is thought
that this viii add to the prospect OF
having the measure talked Ia death
ne presidents position on the subject
was made perfectly plain in his.
speeches on his recent trip through the
soth. He is personally in favor of the
Esch- Townsend bill as the best means
of federal regulation of rates and he
IS thoroughly convinced that he has the
country behind him in forcing the leg
islatlon through. Yet there are per-
sistent rumors even from those classed
as the presidents friends that he Is in
cllned to compromise measure rather
than to abandon the legislation alto
gether. 1t is said that he attaches
much weight to the opinions of Sem
ator Knox and Secretary Root. both
OF whom are said to have assured him
that only by compromise will it be
possible to secure action on any bill,
The president certainly believes In the
integrity of these two advisors as well
as in the value Of their opinion from a
political standpoint But it must be
said that up to date he has shown no
SIGN nf in n DO A.
ton and there Is no one qualified to
speak for him who has shown any wish
to compromise.
There was meeting Of the senate
committee on interstate commerce this
week at which thirteen members were
present Senator Elkins presided. 1t
developed that there were six members
of the committee present who were
for rate fixing. One Of these was
democrat and five republicans. On
the other hand there were seven in
favor Of the plan, four of whom were
democrats and three republicans. 1t is
very likely that this division of forces
will continue and there may be a ma
jority and minority report submitted
to congress when the committee has d.

PELVIC CATARRH, A PREVALENT ~ STUBBORN MALADY.
These Cases.
Pelvic Catarrh Covers : a
Multitude Of WOman's
Ailments.

For many years the profession have
been treating the ailments peculiar to
the female sex as a special class OF
ailments.
Local treatments of all sorts have
been devised. Surgical operation have
been employed
The whole medical profession seemed
unanimous that II this class Of diseases
were to be cured at all, 1t must be ae-
eompIished by local treatment or BY
surgical procedures.
When Or. Hartman invented Peruna
as an internal remedy for catarrh, 1t
gradually became apparent that IN
ternal diseases could be cured that
heretofore had baffled all medical treat
ment.
If Peruna cures catarrh In one part
of the body, it can cure catarrh in any
other part Of the body
Peruna, being an internal systemic
remedy, 1t Is Just as applicable to
pelvic catarrh, which so frequently
afflicts women, as nasal eatarrh, so
common in Northern cllmes.
Thus 1t has come to pass that rem
| edy which is neither surgical nor
local application is in common use for
| the cure of pelvic catarrh.
A great number of cases of female
ailments of all varieties are cured by
use of Peruna.
Peruna cures catarrh wherever To-
Gated in the body.
A multitude of women who hereto.
fore have been vainly trying local
treatments and possibly dreadlng
surgical operation, have been Induced
to try Peruna and received prompt
cure.
These women, in their gratitude for
relief, make public statements for the
benefit of others.
We necessarily can publish only
few of them. We have hundreds more
| in our files.
