INthese days almost every ailment is
Il supposed to be caused by disease
germs.
The medical profession as we'll as the'i
people, seem to have gone mad over the 4
germ theory of disease.
The universal fear and dread of dis
ease germs Is becoming very serious
matter TO the welfare and happiness Of
the people.
DR.. Hartman has consistently con-
tended through all the rise and spread
of the germ theory, that m0sf diseases
are caused by climatic influences.
For instance, catching cold is respon-
sible for more than oae-half Of the ills
to which human beings are subject.
Danger of Neglected Colds.
A person catches cold easily, thinks
nothing about it, HeRiecfs II, when it
finally becomes settled in some organ
of the body, and chronic disease Is the
result.
few doses of Peruna in the begin
ming of the cold would have saved
months of suffering, as well as great ex-
pense for treatment.
Peruna Is a reliable relief for cold.
Almost everybody knows this.
Instead of trying to dislodge or kill
some imaginary germ, IL Pernna was
used at the proper timeits tonic proper
isies and anti-catarrhal qualities would
soon convince the patient that he has
found the right remedy.
A multitude of letters are received
testifying to this fact.
Keep Pcruna in the house. Use IL
whenever cold or climatic affections a..
sail, and sickness in the household will
become greatly lessened, IL not cntirsly
prevented.
Catarrh Of the Stomach.
Bir. Christian Hofmann, r. +. ID. l,
Slatington, Pa, writes:
"For many years / suffered with ca
cafarrh offhe stomach. was coughing
day and night. After having tried
three doctors and many remedies, one OF
your almanacs came to my hand, and I
bought some Peruna. SO far l have
taken six bottles, and have not suf-
fered with cafarrh this summer / am
cured and Peruna did it. give Peruna
TO my children whom theyfecl bad and
you should see how healthy they are"
Nose. Throat and stomach.
Mr.. Delbert b. Craft, Lowell, Ind,
writes
"For a long time / suffered with
chronic cafarriI of the nose. throat and
stomach. l would continually take
cold and my stomach was in bad condi-
tion. truly suffered untold misery. 4
took various medicines and tried the
treatment of several physicians, but
felt no better. A friend advised me to
take Pcruna. wrote TO DIR. Hartman,
who prescribed treatment. AS soon as

prised at the relief it gave me- kept on
taking it until had taken thirteen lot
ties and was cured"

DUKE SHOWS 5000
TO TIE GOOD.


TO THE GOOD.
Large extensions maze been made
IN the water works system in the last
two years, without increasing the
bonded indebtedness of the city.
Where improvements have been made.
they have been made permanent This
has enabled the department to de-
vote part Of both the income and levy
for fire and water 90 making a long
list of substantial and costly improve
ments.
Among the new and costly improve
ments and additions made to the
water plant are, nearly mile (4,224
feet OF 6 and s inch water pipe,
new crib at the works, seven new
water gates and six new hydrants. All
this, and not one dollar Of bonds.
Why. that is about as much as the
city has to show for its $4,000 Of
water bonds, the proceeds of which
were sqlandered during the two Re
publican administrations preceding
Dakc.
Barnes lost s1.2675s on the water
Il partment in two years. Duke, after
paying for all those improvements,
gained S3.729A AZ in the first eighteen
months and ~ that rate the gain for
the full term OF two years will prob
ably be about $4,000. This shows a
/ balance of over $1,000 in Dukes favor
ON tie water department alone.
AS for 'Bnl" Spencer being a Re
publican, Il is worth while to note
that one of the most creditable things
he ever did was TO shake the Barnes
administration during the first year
and not reappear in the city OFFICES
luntil he accepted q place as water
commissioner under Mayor Duke,
"Bill" Is like a good many other Re
lpublilans-he takes Barnes about like
the average Kid takes castor oil.
II Duke had had charge OF the af
fsirs of this city when the water
bonds were issued there would have
been no scandals about Island pari
wells and tunnels and the people
would have had something TO show
for that $4,000.

but was of incalculable value TO the
seed in the ground and that just COM
ing up. The general run of planters
here are taking a much more optim-
istic view of the situation than they
did couple of weeks ago. In the
territory surrounding Welsh there
will be very nearly an average acre
age sown, although some of it will be
planted late, vet the favorable condi-
tions will cause it to terminate quick
| ly so that it will be up and growing
earlier than much that was sown a
month earlier last year, but failed to
terminate quickly on account of the
dry weather.
1t is reported that there is scarcity
of seed rice and that those who are un-
provided with seed for their late plant
ing are having difficulty in finding it
now, and are having to pay excessive
prices when they do find it.
There has been no rain in this Sec
ton since June first until the night of
the eleventh, and while it was getting
quite dry and dusty, it was ideal wealth
er for our present needs and condi-
tions.
There is every prospect now that
this section of the country will expert
ence one of the most prosperous har-
vests that has occurred in recent years.
