THE ADANIANT BUG.
They're Working Fields and Build
ing Roads in Missouri.

They're Working Fields and Build
ing Roads in Missouri.
From the Kansas City journal.
Silas Pewter of Hendricks Township,
Chatauga county, who discovered the
adamant bug, is getting rich fast off
his discovery. 1t was in August when
he discovered the bugs, and several
weeks before he could get things
shaped up to "colonize" them proper
ly. He now has at least dozen diff
ferent "herds" of them. Some are re-
moving the stone from fields for far
mers by eating it into sand and letting
it 90 back into the soil when the ground
is ploughed. Pewter gets 81 an acre
for this. One herd is working on the
road in Harrison Township cutting
the rock out of the hills. Several
herds are at work in the sand-paper
factory between Elgin and Hewins.
Mr.. Pewter says his sand-paper mill
has paid well, but thinks he will close
it down during the spring months be-
cause so many road overseers want
the bugs for spring road work. BE
saws he is about to close a contract
with the Sante F'e for the mastication
of the big boulders along its tracks
west of Elgin. This, he says, will
give the bugs work all the season.

A TALK TO FARMERS.

Many family depends largely upon
Peruna as family medicine and the
family physician.
Some farmers are far removed from
physicians, and in any case they are
far more seIf-reliant and more liable to
depend upon household remedy than
people who live in the cities.
DIR. Hartman, who for many years
was farmer himself, and who still
owns and manages one of the best farms
in the State of Ohio, is a friend of the
farmer, and it is with the farmer that
the immense bulk of his correspondence
is conducted.
The millions of booklets published
and distributed by DR.. Hartman every
year circulate chiefly among the farm
ing class.
large number of unsolicited testi-
monials concerning Peruna come from
the farmers every year.

SPECULATION RUNS RIOT AMONG FARMERS
Middle Georgia Many Have Dsspated Earnings of Recent
Prosperous Times and Mortgaged Homes.

The speculation fever thathas ragged
among the farmers of this section,
says a GAINESVILLE dispatch, for the
past few months has been disastrous
in results, but has not yet abated. 1t
has already made bankrupt several
who were formerly in afiuent circum-
stances, and if kept up may yet be the
means of many more separating from
their hard earned savings and from
the profits derived from high-priced
cotton.
The fever was brought about by the
great interest of the last few months in
cotton and the general prosperity that
has reigned. Several placing their

In the rise of price a short while ago
a number protted well, but by the de-
clining prices of the past few weeks
many have suffered severely.
Several who have already lost all
they made last year, having sold the
last of their cotton, have now mort
gagged their houses in the hope of re-
cruiting their fallen fortunes. Several
have sold out altogether and moved
to town in order that they may be in
position to speculate more freely. This
illustrates to what extent the danger

NO PREMIUMS FOR BABIES.
President Won't Pay for TripIets Oh
bankruptcies in This Country.

President Roosevelt, through his
secretary. has informed James F.
Hunt of Hartford City, Ind, who is
the father of triplets, that he is not
paying 800 premiums on triplets. The
letter follows:
THE WHITE HOUSE, Washington,
January 30, l906.-My Dear Sir:
Your letter of the 29th instant has
been recei we'd and It's contents noted.
In reply / would say that you have
been misinfOrmed, as 70 offer of the
kind you mention has been made.
Yours truly, VIM. LOEB,
Secretary to the President.
Mrs. Hunt says that she wrote the
letter under the impression that the
president gave present of 800 to the
parents of every set of triplets as
an iDducement to discourage race
suicide. The parents of the children
now state that the babies have not
been named and it is certain that
neither the name of Teddy, Alice or
any other of the presidents family
will be chosen.

THE farmer is the salt Of the earth.
1 Without the farmer, the industrial
world with all it's furry and immense
wealth could not exist for day.
1t is upon the soil that we all depend
for our living.
No matter how far one may be re-
moved from filling the soil, or how lit
tie he may know about the farmers vo-
cation, he is vitality dependent upon the
things which grow in the soil.
Farming is the basis of all wealth and
is the bulwark of all civilization.
The farming class is rapidly becom-
ing intelligent and shrewd in business
management.
The reuben and the country pumpkin
have disappeared and in their stead a
practical weIl-trained business man,
capable of the highest form of com
mercial activity, has arisen.
Peruna is very popular medicine
among the farming class.

J. b. Alexander, publisher of the
"Fruit and Floral Guide, Magazine of
Horticulture" published in Hartford
City, Ind, says of Peruna:
81 was afflicted with catarrh of the
throat and head for over ten years. L
was treated by many physicians, but
grew worse until L was seldom able to
go out in cold weather.
"About one year ago was advised to
try Peruna, which did, and l am now
entirely well of the catarrh.
"Peruna is a necessity in our home.
With the first symptoms OF cold we
use it, and are never afflicted with ca
tarrh.
al advise all who are afflicted with
catarrh to try Peruna. There is certainly
nothing equal to it as a catarrh medi-
cine"
DR.. Hartman interested In Farming.
Notwithstanding DR.. Hartman's busy
professional career, he still continues to
be interested in farming. He is the
owner an5 manager of one of the larg-
est farms in the State Of Ohio, with
several thousand acres of the best titled
land in the Middle West, and with
hundreds of the best blooded percheron
horses ever imported or raised in this
country.
DIR. Hartman relies upon Peruna en-
tirely in cages of sickness in his own

Mr.. w. r. Callahan, proprietor OF Big

and stock raiser, Glenvar, Va, writes:
81 write to express my kindness
toward you and your good medicine,
Peruna.
81 had a very bad spell of sickness
and could not eat anything at all. My
head, stomach, in fact, my whole body
ached, and it looked as though nothing
would do me any good. l had almost
given up.
81 decided to try a bottle of your
Peruna and before had taken half the
bottle my appetite came to me and my
head became all right. In fact, l was
all right all over. Peruna cured me-"
While Peruna is not confined to any
one class of people, yet it is probably
true that the farming class more than
any other, rely upon Peruna for the
prevention and cure of all climatic
diseases.

Pe-ru-na Is a Systemic Remedy.
If Peruna proves efficient for catarrh
in one place, it will be equally potent
in any other place, because it is sys-
temic remedy.
The people generally are very much
misinformed as to the nature of catarrh
Catarrh is usually believed to be con-
fined to the head, nose and throat. Lat
terly we sometimes hear of catarrh of
the stomach and catarrh of the bowels.
Seldom, if ever, do we hear of catarrh
of any other organs.
1t lis not because these organs are not
subject to catarrh, nor that catarrh of
these organs is not very common dis
ease, but simply because it is not gener-
ally known that affections of these
organs may be due to catarrh.

Phosphate
Direct from the
Brain.

We know that active brain work throws
out the phosphate of potash, for this pro-
duct is found on the skin after excessive
brain work, therefore, brain workers, in
order 20 keep well, must have proper food
containing phosphate Of potash to quickly
and surely rebuild the used-up tissue. That
one can obtain such food has been proven
in thousands OF cases among users OF Pos
tum Food Coffee and Grape-Nuts.
Both contain phosphate of potash in mi
mute particles just as 1t is furnished by
nature in the grains.
This product makes from aIbumen the
gray matter that builds the brain and fills
the nerve centers.
In no way can this gray matter be mase
except by the action Of phosphate Of potash
upon a,bumen, and this mineral should be
introduced to the body just as II comes
from natures laboratory. and not from
