Idaho, one of the largest silver-lead
mines in the world, who made his
home at Wardner for nearly year in

state that the ore resembles Cripple
Creek ore. The lodges are well de-
fined. A large number of claims have
been located already and many more
WIZ follow.

The Evolution of
Household Remedies

The modern p-tent medicine bust
ness is the natural outgrowth OF tie
old time household remedies
In the early history of this country,
EVERY FAMILY HAD ITS HOME
MADE MEDICINES. Herb teas, bit
tiers, laxatives and tonics, were to be
found in almost every house, COM
pounded by the housewife, sometimes
assisted by the apothecary or the fam
lily doctor Such remedies as plcra,
which was aloes and quassia, dissolved
in apple brandy Sometimes a hop
tonic, made of whiskey, hops and bit
ter banks. A score or more of popular,
homemade remedies we're thus COM
pounded, the formulate for which were
passed along from house to house,
sometimes written, sometimes verbally
communicated.
The patent medicine business is a
natural outgrowth from this whole
some, old time custom. In the begin
ming, some enterprising doctor, i'm
pressed by the usefulness of one of
these home made remedies, would take
it ur, improve it in many ways, manu-
facture it on large scale, advertise it
mainly through almanacs for the home,
and thus it would become used over
large area. LATTERLY THE HOUSE
HOLD REMEDY BUSINESS TOOK A
MORE EXACT AND SCIENTIFIC
/ FORM.
) PeIuna was originally one of these
old time remedies. 1t was used by the
2 Mennonites, of Pennsylvania, before it
! was offered to the public for sale. DR..
| Hartman, THE ORIGINAL COM
FOUNDER OF PERUNA, is of Men,
monte origin. First, he prescribed il
for his neighbors and his patients. The
sale of it increased, and at last he es
. tablished mandatory and furnished
it to the general drug trade.
Peruna is useful in great many eli
matte ailments, such as coughs, colds
s)re throat, bronchitis, and catarrha
{ diseases generally. THOUSANDS OF
FAMILIES HAVE LEARNED TIKI
: USE OF PERNUA and its value il
J. the treatment of these ailments. The,
T have learned to trust and believe in DR.
y Hartman's judgment, and to rely o.
his remedy, Peruna.

Fierce Fire at Manila.

Manila-Fire destroyed HOO nipa
houses and parts of the districts OIL
Singalong, Pace and Bambang, in Man
lila. The new American settlements
at Ermita and Malate escaped through
the hard work of the firemen, assisted
by soldiers and citizens. The flames
famed by heavy gale, swept an area
of 100 acres clean within two hours
and destroyed the homes of 100 resi-
dents and 1000 natives. Inc native
refugees are now sheltered In the
schools and other public buildings
while many are camping in open
spaces. The damage is conservatively
estimated at 100000. No casualties

PINLICOO ALWAYS

BALTIMORE, April I7-Society is
awaiting with Impotence the opening

ing begins every private box is sold
This year it was necessary to have built
number Of additional boxes, and these
were engaged before they had been
completed.
When one considers that the Pimlico
course is an old one with few OF the
convenienCes Of modern racing plants,
this keen interest in the meetings is re-
markable- But there IS an atmosphere
about Pimlico. So many glorious mem
cries are associated with the old course
that il is Ike reading through the pages

the front Of the grandstand are painted
IN large letters TIE names OF the winners

just completed its first season. and, in
cidentally. a most successful one, over
the report that the election of a man

account OF the fact that it does not

letic council as regards the election OF
officers for varsity teams At the same
meeting at which Whiting was elected
captain for next season. Wilhelm was
elected to the management and John
