"INDooR BASE BALL" ILLEGAL.
Corporation Counsel Puts Ban Upo1
Game of Chance.

Game OF Chance.
The game of "indoor base ball' is held
by the corporation counsel as prohibited
in the District. because, in his opinion, ii
is a game of chance in the nature of q
lottery and therefore illegal. A similar
opinion was rendered by the late A. B.
DuvaH five years ago when he was cor
poration counsel.
This game, which is tabooed by the Com
missioners, is not a real life performance
of the American game" but simply one
of the many devices set up in stores as
trade producers.
The attention of the Commissioners was
called to the legality of the game early this
week by William H. Cornish of Is Bates
street northwest, who stated that he had
been offered the District of Columbia
agency for It, but before accepting he de-
sired to know if it's operation was in viola
ton of the law.

New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1906-03-14
The TubercuIous Child.

1t is so often the habit of thrifty
parents to send the sickly, tubercu-
lous child to school, and keep the
strong and healthy boys and girls at
home to work on the farm or to help
with the homework, that many cases
of this disease in all stages may still
be found even in country schools Such
pupils are source of great danger to
others, as by coughing they fill the
atmosphere with infected droplets full
Of bacilli, and by splitting on the floors,
fill the room with infected dust. Some
times the teacher is the victim of this
insidious disorder, and all in the room
may run the risk of infection because
of breathing infected air.
In school hygiene, one very import
ant element is a healthy teacher.
If children suffering from tubercu-
losis have a chance to live at all, it is
In an outdoor life. To send them to
school is to send them to the grave
speedily, while they are almost certain
to infect others.

MRS. IDA CALDWELL,
11---.zn--si Thousands of women owe their lyl


Thousands of women owe their lives
to Peruna. Hundreds of thousands owe
their health to Peruna. Hundreds OF
thousands are praising Peruna in every
state of the Union.
We have many thousands of letters
from grateful women, with permission
to use them in public print, which can
never be used for want of space.
Cafarrh would not be such q curse
in this country if the people thoroughly
understand its nature. 1t must be
treated at once to prevent it from MAX
ing ifzr0ads upon vital organs.
If you suffer from catarrh, buy Pc
runa to-day, for a day gained on the
enemy, catarrh, means a day nearer
recovery.
We have on file many thousand testi-
monials like the one given here. We can
only give our readers slight glimpse
of the'vast array of unsolicited endorse
ments we are receiving. No other ply
sician in the world has received such
volume of enthusiastic letters of thanks
as DR.. Hartman for Peruna.

The Sensational Cure of Mrs.
Caldwell is the Talk of Her
Acquaintance.

Mrs. Ida Caldwell, SOC Pearl street,
Sioux City, Ia, Yice-President Order of
Washington, writes:
~ suffered with catarrh of the res
piratory organs off and on for the last
three years until J thought it was
chronic. My chest and lungs were ir-
ritated and I had to use the greatest
care not to expose myself to chilly air
or dampness as it increased my troubles.
"My physician advised me to try q
change of climate, but II was unable to
leave my family. Reading of the won
derfM cures performed by Peruna,
bought a bottle.
s'ifWas with the greatest satisfaction
thafl found 1t the one medicine among
them all which cured me. / was re-
ieved within three days and after two
months and a half the irritation was
gone, my lungs perfectly healed and my
health restored. Ida Caldwell.
