an Asiatic city. its preference being for
some European capital. After object
ing to the holding of the conference in
Paris. the Japanese government ex-
pressed a willingness to consider other
places which afforded adequate facili-
ties, although 1t is assured that Japan's
preference would be for some eastern
city. practically within the theatre of
war.
Finally, however, the selection seems
to have narrowed down to the three
cities named. Objections have been
made by the Japanese to The Hague.
but II is not believed that those objec-
lions are fundamental or unalterable.
However. as the situation now Is. Wash
ington appears to be the city most
likely to be selected. II can be said.
on authority, that II the conference is
held In the United States, II will be in
Washington. No other place In this
country has been considered seriously.
An announcement of the selection of
the place of holding the conference Is
expected within a few days. Thus far
President Roosevelt has acted merely
as an Intermediary between Russia and
Japan in the conduct of the negotia-
lions regarding the selection Of a place
Of conference. He is in no sense OF the
term an arbiter in the matter. and at
this time there is no probability that
he will be the arbiter. II Is expected
that Russia and Japan will be able to
reach an agreement without the assist
ance of an arbiter. Should a deadlock
ensue-a condition that is regarded us
quite unlikely-it Is not improbable
that the president may be requested
by the powers to name the place of
conference.
After the selection of the place of
meeting of the plenipotentiaries. the
two governments will name those who
are TO represent them, respectively. at
the conference. Then an armistice be-
tween the contending armies in the
field will be arranged and pending the
result of the peace conference the great
armies facing each other in Manchuria
will lie on their arms awaiting the
final signal from their governments.

Almost everybody needs tonic in the
spring. Something to brace the nerves,
invigorate the brain, and cleanse the
blood. That Peruna will do this is be-
yond all question.
We have on file thousands of letters
which testify to the curative and pre-
ventive value of Peruna in cases of
nervous depression and run down con-
ditions of the system. We quote q

Peace Conference Likely to be Held
In This Country.
CONSIDERING TWO OTHER CITIES

Washington. June 15.-Gradually the
negotiations for peace In the Far East
are nearing focus. The one point I'D
which the energies of those directly
concerned in them now are being di-
rected is the choice of a place for the
holding of the conference of the pleni-
potentiaries Of the belligerent powers.
1t is known officially that three cities
now are under consideration by Russia
and Japan. These cities. named in the
order of the likelihood of their final
selection, are Washington, The Hague
and Geneva.
Thus far no decision has been reached.
Paris and London have been eliminated
from the question. II is understood
that the Russian government objects 10

Pe-ru-na Contains No Narcotics.

Pe-ru-na Contains No Narcotics.
One reason why Peruna has found per-
manent use in so many homes is that It
contains no narcotic of any kind. Pc
runa is perfectly harmless. 1t can be
used any length of time without acquir-
ing a drug habit. Peruna does not pro-
duce temporary results. 1t is permanent
in its effect.
1t has no bad effect upon the system,
and gradually eliminates catarrh by re-
moving the cause of catarrh. There are
Q multitude of homes where Peruna has
been used Off and on for twenty years.
Such thing could not be possible il

cotic nature. All correspondence held

London, June 13.-Glowing tributes
to President Roosevelt's successful
diplomacy again occupy the foremost
place in the London morning news
papers.
The Morning Post. In an editorial
characterizes it as both personal and
national triumph. and declares that no
other man would have ventured to
even attempt what President Roosevelt
has achieved Continuing, the Morn
ing Post says:
mo president since Lincoln has so
impressed himself on the Imagination
and respect of Europe and Asia. His
success implies acknowledgement of
the moral position America holds in
international politics.
The St Petersburg correspondent of
the Times says:
1T Is no exaggeration to say that
President Roosevelt is the most pOpu-
lar man in Russia today. The presi-
dents rare insight. aided by the skill
and tact of his ambassador tMr. Meyer
