DR.. HARTMAN, THE FARMER.

He himself supervises the working
details of every department.
He is a model of strength and vitality,
and since Peruna is the only remedy he
ever makes personal use of, his physical
condition is a testimonial to the efficacy
of Peruna of greater value than could
be framed in words.
DIR. Hartman is one of the few doctors
who take their own medicine and his
splendid physique and strength in his
old age are an eloquent argument for
Peruna very difficult to gainsay.
DIR. Hartman, being a farmer himself,
knows what the farmer needs and in
speaking Of PeIunA TO the farmer he
speaks to his own kind of people.
Pe-ru-na For Bowel Trouble.
Mr.. Stanly Bell, Ashley, Ohio, writes: :
81 was afflicted with rheumatism SO
badly that 1t WAS painful for me to
move. I took two or three bottles Of
Peruna when 1 began to feel better. 1t
also gave me relief from bowel trouble"

Pe-ru-na Is 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.
Lately 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 is not because these organs are not
subject to catarrh, nor that cstarrh Of
these organs is not very common dis
ease, but simply because it is not gener-
ally known thai affections of these
organs may be due to cstsrrh.

FARM LAWS At TRACT
INVESTORS PARTIAL TO AeRL
CULTURAL PROPERTY.
Life Insurance Companies and Banks
Favorable to This Glass of Sc
curities-Few Mortgages
ForecIosed.

Chicago. = The attractiveness OF
farm loans in the middle west is hav.
ing a decided effect on Chicago CAPT
tai, according to bankers and brokers.
Considerable activity is manifesting
itself in this direction, and many of
the leading life insurance companies
are acquiring first mortgages on farms
in Illinois, Iowa, Missouri, Kansas,
Oklahoma, Nebraska, Colorado, Min.
nesota, the Dakotas and the country
adjacent.
The present holdings of the insur-
ance companies considerably exceed
$2OO, 900 in these securities. Farm
mortgages in the country mentioned
net five, five and one-half and six per
cent. They are limited, as rule, to
productive farms, and are made on a
basis of 40 per cent. of the land value,
closely appraised, and not including
the value of improvements. Bankers
point to the remarkably few fore
closures of farm mortgages in this sec
ton. The number scarcely exceeds
one-tenth of one per cent.
AS compared with other invest
ments based on lands in cities, the
bankers of the middle west favor the
well-placed farm loans, which,. they
declare, contain every element of at
tractiveness. A farm loan is regard
ed as quick asset, whereas the con-
trary was true not much more than
a decade ago.
Many trust companies now include a
separate department for the purchase
and sale of farm loans. Chicago has a
number of firms dealing in them, and
it is estimated that close to SIS, 900, 900
in such securities is held by Chicago
investors. A large increase in this
class of investment is predicted
Statistics show that the value of
Missouri real estate, for example, is
$4,000, 100000, while Kansas has real
property worth $1,000,O00,00O. Okla
homa real estate Is estimated at $685.
100000.
Missouri has $2O4,OOO,OOO invested
in live stock, $32,O0O,OOO in farm i'm.
plements, $92,0OO,OO0 in manufacturing
machinery and. $310,000,0O0 in rail-
roads.
Oklahoma is a land of homes. Out
of $1,000 families in 1906, more than
10000 owned their homes. The peU
pie are engaged chiefly in agriculture
The cash value of the farms is esti.
mated at 1898, 100000. The 1906 corn
crop amounted to 125,OOO,OOO bushels,
representing $S7,500,00O. The cotton
crop has a value of $15,OOO,OOO. More
than 100000 bushels of wheat was
harvested in 1906, and $4,000 tons OF
broom corn cut. Fruit of all kinds is
raised in abundance.
Farm lands in Oklahoma range from
SIS to $65 an acre, or an average of
about $50.

Farmers Last Prayer Had Surely
Settled Amount Owing.

John R, travelling salesman OF
Dorchester, Mass, tells this story:
Il was driving across the country in
New Hampshire last summer on bust
ness, and jolt of the farmers wagon
threw me out on my head and bruised
me so badly that I was laid up at a
farm house for two weeks. The farmer
was good-hearted but clOse-fsted
man, and as soon as was able to sit
up he began to worry as to what he
ought to charge me. I caught scraps
OF the conversation, and made out
that he wanted to do the right thing,
but did not wish to let me off too
cheaply. The day before was to go
he had another talk with his wife, and
she advised him to make it an object
of prayer. He went out to the barn
and came in in half an hour later to
say: Wall, Hammer, I've bin prayin'
over that feller's case, and as nigh as
I kin find out orter charge bout $40
a week for his board and care
If you did, should be 'shamed to-
ever look him in the face ag'in,' she
said. You'd best 60 n pray ag'in.'
HE held out for a time, but finally
went to the barn again. When he
came back he said:
"I guess $40 was little steep,
Hammer, and I guess bout So week
will be all right
'Sam'ell, was you in real airnest
when you prayed?'
L was, Hammer
Then this sunthin' wrong some'rs.
1t hain't with no such price as that
Lor' he amt eat much till this week,
and 'twa'n't much to take care O. him.
The naybers would call us robbers.
Go back to the barn onct more, and
kneel in new place.
But don't see how I'm goin' to
git it below S. he protested.
Wall, go n try
He went away and was gone longer
this time and when he came back
there was smile on his face.

FRISCO CAR men. ON STRIKE.
STREET RAILWAY EMPLOYEES
QUIT, TYING UP TRAFFIC.
Company Will Attempt to Operate
with Non-Union Crews, Calling on
Authorities for Protection.

San Francisco, May 6-The street
car motormen and conductors struck
Sunday, tying up the street car sys-
tenn of this city. In lieu of the cars,
all sorts of vehicles, from automobiles
to express wagons, were used by the
public
The motOrmen and conductors of
the United Railroads early Sunday
morning voted to declare a strike,
after having failed to obtain an eight
hour day and a fiat wage of three dol
lars
The strikers have been reinforced
by the stationary fremen, who de-
mand recognition of their union and
an increase of wages from $2.75 to
1925 per day. It is probable that 9TH
er allied trades will come to the sup.
port of the platform men. There was
no disorder, as no attempts were
made by the railroad officials to take
cars from the barns, but it is expected
that an effort to run cars will be made
Monday.
President Patrick Calhoun says that
the United Railroads company will
operate its lines independently of the
car mems union and if resisted, will
demand from the city and state au-
thorities the full protection guaran-
teed by the law. The officials of the
company have been making elaborate
preparations to run cars in the event
of a strike and they claim to have sew
eral hundred experienced men ready
to take the places of the strikers.
In the event of the city and state
being unable to provide protection in
case of serious trouble, federal assist
ance may be invoked on the ground
that the United Railroads Investment
company, of New Jersey, which is the
holding corporation of the United
Railroads, is a corporation foreign to
this state. It is reported that Farley,
the noted strike-breaker, is in the city
and that he will have charge of the
strike-breaking operations.

In the Shamien suburb, where the

Roofs Blown OFF Mile Away.
Some idea of the force of the ex-

that the roofs of houses a mile dis

blown off. A number of important
Chinese and foreign mercantile es-
Establishments were completely demol-
ished.
In the vicinity of the magazine were
shockingly mutilated. Many corpses
of men and women were without
heads
The officer in charge of the maya
sine was among those killed, and
when his body was recovered a pipe
was found clutched in his hand, which
suggests the possible cause Of the ex-
