MIR. c. B. FIBER, Mt. 0VeTAnS, ny, 4v1 writes:
 "T have suffered win kidney and other trouble for fen years past
 "Last March I commenced using Peruna and continued for three months. I have not used it since, nor have felt pain.
 "I believe that I am we'll and there- fore give my highest commendatlon to the curative qualities of Peruna."
 pe.ru.na For Kidney Trouble.
 Mrs. Geo. H. Simser, Grant, Ontario, Can., writes:
 "I had not been well for about four wears. ' had Kidney trouble, and, In facf. felt badly nearly all the time.
 "This summer l got so very bad thought would try Peruna, so wrote to you and began at once to take Peruna and Manalin.
 "I took only two bottles of Peruna and one of Manalin, and now l feel better than have for some time.
 II feel that Peruna and Manalin cured me and made differe nt woman of me altogether. l bless the day picked up, the little book and read of your Peruna."
 Kis the business Of the Kidneys to remove from fhe blood all poisonous materials. They must be active all the time, else thesystem suffers. They are times when they need little assistance.
 Peruna is exactly the sort of rem edy. It has saved many people from disaster by rendering the kidneys ser vice at time when they were not able to bear their own burdens.

MAKING CHEAP GOODS.
Low Prices Too Often Mean Inferior
 Articles.

Efforts to cheapen cost of produc- tion of numerous classes of goods and to place them on the market in com petition with well advertised lines, and at much lower price, has infiu- enced not too honest manufacturers to turn out very inferior articles. So long as they can be made attractive in exterior appearance so as to please those whose tastes are for the "showy'' seems to be the only consid- eration. In the manufacture of stoves and ranges particularly is there great opportunity for fraud. In different cities of the middle west are large concerns that make speciality Of manufacturing stoves to supply deal CTS who depend on cheapness to se- cure sales. These manufacturers buy from junk dealers all classes of old iron, and this remelted and worked over enters largely into their manu' factured articles The result is that a stove is produced that while it ap' pears to be all right, few months use will prove it to be almost worth less. The tensile strength is not there, the metal is rotten and brittle, and the expansion caused by the heat makes it warp and crack. The Things are of the poorest material.
 One of the tricks employed is the use of old sheet iron for lining. Throughout the south and in many of the large northern cities the manu- facture of artificial ice is extensively carried on. Galvanized iron cans of the capacity of 300-pound ice-cake are used, and in every large plant thousands of cans are in use. The ammonia that is used in the process of freezing soon causes the cans to corrode, and then they are rendered useless for the purpose required. The stove manufacturing concerns buy up these discarded cans, and use them for lining stoves. It can be judged that the life of the stove in this way is shortened, but as the stoves are never intended to last long, the lining is as good as the other material which enters into their composition. In appearance these stoves are all that can be desired, but their wearing and durable qualities are nc. half that of properly made stove should be. They are often sold at as high prices as the best article, but more frequent ly are disposed of as "big bargains" and are dealt in extensively by con- cerns that advertise themselves as manufacturers" and do business "di- rect with the consumers" through the mails. Makers of stoves who put out brands of goods known to be standard never resort to such methods, as one inferior stove might result in the loss of dozen sales, and no reputable stove dealer or hardware merchant would handle the goods.

HOME NEWSPAPERS.
Are Factors in the Enlightenment of
 the People.

This is an era when the business man who would succeed must place the right value upon publicity. This is the most enlightened era the world has ever known. Only a small per centage of the people, particularly among the English speaking, cannot read and write, and in fact it is rare thing to find an illiterate person in any American community.
 h every farmers house can be found from one to a dozen newspa- pers and periodicals.
 The old-style farmer is fast passing, and there is general admission that intelligence, in fact scientific training is needed on the farm as well as in the business house and factory. With telephones, daily rural delivery serv- ice and every innovation of civiliza- ton, the American farmer is fast be- coming noted among the educated and advanced classes. They are readers, thinkers and logicians. Growing gen. erations in agricultural communities have all the advantages that the youth of cities have, and few of the disad- vantages. They surely breathe a healthier moral atmosphere. The farmers are the main support of the country press. They feel interested in all local affairs, and the home pa per is the means of keeping them in- formed of things going on immediate ly about them. If the average mer- chant would give as substantial SUD- port to the home paper as does the farmer, the editor would not only be enabled to give the farmer a better paper, represent his interests better, but the merchant would receive ben eft in seeing his town improve and it's business increased, and all his environments improved.

Above all things be of good cheer. When a winner and bellyacher butts in, why, just butt him out. God made the songbird and the busy bee for the use of mankind, and he who has not gotten a lesson in industry and good cheer from these is not fit to associ- ate with decent men. Man has not gone far on the road to human at tainment, but he has already passed many stages of the course, and has cast off many of the things that hin der, and 1t is for this riddance of the cruder things that he has mucn cause to rejoice like the songbird and work like the bee.

Building Up Trusts.

During the past ten years billions of dollars have been sent to the large cities by the residents of rural con- munities, and these billions have been used in building up trusts that work against the best interests of the masses who reside in agricultural sec tions.

There is a tendency to want to spread out and take in the whole ma schinery of civilization. You can't do this. It is the business of the Farm sers' Union to raise stuff, to take care sof 1t, and to market it to the very sbest advantage, and to help each and severy farmer to own home, to be Happy and to protect him against any evil of any sort whatever and wherev- ger possible; to educate him and his children in the things that make for general prosperity and happiness as farmer. It was never contemplated to make manufacturers, bankers and merchants of farmers. The interests of these followings are in conflict with those of farmers, and the Union man wtho is silly though to want to Spread ,aDut" and cover every phase of indus ptrial and commercial life has scheme to unload on you, and you should "get wise to him" and let him have a cold shoulder.

Bisbee. Dec. 2, 1907.
 The week ending finds the market for long time and in all probability Monday will see further improve ment. There was a slight reaction today which Is attributed to profit taking and the reported failure of a Pittsburg bank has caused some un- easiness. However, the offerings to- day were well taken care of. There is a good demand for the curb stocks, but bids are pretty well taken care of. Shattuck sold down to S15.25, Denn weakened, closing at $4.00. Superior & Pittsburg is coming out at $9.00. Greene Cananea sold at $500. War ren is still holding strong with no stock to be had on market orders. Wolverine & Arizona is scarce under S2.75. National Exploration made a good record for tIe week advancing from 30 asked to 55 bid. Butte & Arizona closed at 40 cents with the demand for this stock still keeping up well. We look Tor a good market again Monday.

Werner sent force of miners up to Box Canyon to perform the an- nual assessment work on the Arizona King and the Arizona Blade mines. These are gold properties of demon strated merit. They have been pros pected to a depth of 100 feet, and show good gold values all the way down.
 The Pinal King Gold Mining Com many. whose properties are situated on Mineral Creek, Pinal County, has
 let contract to Fred Pike and Dick
 Herndon for development work. One of the properties is situated south of Ray, and the other a short distance north 6 Kelvin. The latter property consists of gold prospects which carry good values. and should become good productive properties when develop ed.
 Postmaster c. H. Niemeyer aas left for Cottonwood with force of miners to perform the annual assessment work on his gold claims, situated on the east side of the Cottonwood wash. These are very promising properties, and have been developed to a consid- erable extent. In addition to ttheir gold values, they carry a large per cent of wulfenite, which is rich in lead and molybdic acid.
 Colonel Griffey, general manager of the Alta Mining Company ot Mineral Hill, was visitor at Florence, and 1t was learned from him that the work of sinking in the Black Copper shaft would begin about Monday of next week with machine drills. The new drill plant and hoisting and pumping machinery are all ready for opera tion. Some of Colonel Griffey's stock holders desired to follow the example of the majority of the mining com panies, and close down during the f. nancial stringency, but Colonel Grif- fey could not see any sound judgment in such proposition, and decided to continue operations at the Alta camp.
