make your stomach healthy by absorbing
foul gases which arise from the undigested

stomach, enabling it to thoroughly mix
the food with the gastric juices. This
cures stomach trouble, promotes digestion,
sweetens the breath, stops belching and
fermentation. Heart action becomes strong
and regular through this process.
Discard drugs, as you know from expert

T. bany, Ind, writes from 5li L. Oak
street:
my endorsement of Peruna is based
on its merits.
'Ifa man is sick he looks anxiously
for something which will cure him,
and Peruna will do the work.
II know that it will cure catarrh of
the head or stomach, Indigestion,
headache and any weary or sick feel

1T is bound to help anyone, if used
according to directions.
Il also know dozens of men who speak
IN the highest terms Of Peruna and have
yet to hear of any one being disappointed
in it."
Mr.. Crumbo. in a later letter, dated
Aug. %, 1904, says:
my health is good, at present, but if
should have to take any more medicine I
will fall back on Peruna."

Adjourned Annual School
Meeting.

The electors in attendance at the
Annual School District Meeting last
Monday night voted to direct the
Board to introduce Manual Training
into the 9Th, 7th and 9Th grades; but
upon necessary reflection for franz
ing the action into legal form that
should carry a tax levy of $500 for
the purchase of tools for wood form
ing and for sewing, an adjourned
meeting was taken for two weeks.
This delay will afford opportunity
for informing ourselves of the whole
significance of the matter, and un-
doubtedly such body of electors
will attend the adjourned meeting
of the 10Th as will be decisive.

Simple Measurements Will Always
Determine its Possession.
The artist looking chap in long hair
and flowing necktie reused up from
his revery when somebody said some
thing about the beautifully small hand
of a lady.
"It isn't the smallest hand that is
the most beautiful" he said with an
air of authority. 1.-THE hand of the
average woman which is the beauty
size wears a six and a quarter glove,
and If it is well shaped hand it is the
ideal one. 1t can't be thin and screwny,
but must be plump enough to fill out
all the wrinkles in the glove, at the
same time not to be too chubby and
fat. The measurements should be
about like this: Five and three-quar-
ter inches around the wrist at the first
button: round knockles at the base OF
the fingers, six and three-Quarter
inches, the hand at the ball of the
thumb seven and half inches; from
the base to the top of the thumb four
and three-eighths inches: from the
top of the second finger to the fork,
three and one-eighth inches. and tho
other fingers in proportion. Those are
the real art measurements, and the
ladies of your acquaintance, and all
others, can easily find out If their
bands are properly proportioned by
getting an ordinary tape measure and
making test I'll bet pot of paint
that not one in twenty has the Ideal
hand."-Exchange

An eminent naturalist, M. ]. II.
Fabre, recently studying the habits OF
the Lycosa narbonensis, noticed that
that spider carries its little ones upon
its back during seven months, and chat
during this time the young spiders
consume absolutely no food.
He concluded from this observation
that it is the solar heat and light that
for them directly take the place of
nourishment. In other words, "the
motor heat in these young animals,
instead of being released from the
food, might be utilized directly as the
sun, source of all life, radiates it,

of substantial worth in gifts of SOL
id gold and other valuables.
