CHILD SAVING INSTITUTE.

An Omaha Institution That Has 40
eomplished Great Good.
This institution has accomplished q
great work the past ten years in pro
viding temporary shelter and food for
more than two thousand homeless chill.
dren and afterwards placing them in
permanent family homes. These
homes where so many little ones have
been adopted have been repeatedly Wis
tied and are known to be good homes,
giving evidence that the homeless ones
taken from the institute are now sur
rounded by moral and uplifting Chris
tian influences with advantages for
education and social life ana protection
in a financial way. Many OF them
have already been made the sole heirs
to farms and to other valuable prop
critics. Some of the children in the in
stitute were taken from evil surround
ings and others from homes of extreme
poverty and still others from county
poor houses. A few years ago a
mother died in western Nebraska,
leaving eight children. the oldest being
IL years of age. The father was an
invalid receiving help from the county.
The eight children instead of going to
the poor house were brought to the In
stitute and are doing well in good
homes.
Three hundred children annually Is
the average number sheltered and
provided for by this institution. The
number on hand daily is from 40 to
60. What would become of these home
less children without this place of
shelter and protection? This work is
a necessity in our community. In spite
of all that has been accomplished and
in spite Of its being a necessary work
it lacks financial support. The Off
GERS Of late have been struggling with
a debt on current expenses. The work
after all does not seem to be well
known. Surely, in this prosperous Sec
ton Of our country, and in these pros
porous times, there is money enough
to take care of the orphan and depend
ent little children. This institution
does not send out financial agents to
collect funds. 1t takes about half of
what such agents collect to pay their
salaries. There is one field agent of
the Institute who travels to visit chill
dren, investigate homes, who Incl
dentally receives donations of funds.
1t is hoped that readers of this article
will send contributions, making checks
payable to G. w. Lyman, treasurer OF
the Child Saving Institute, Eighteenth
and Ohio, streets, Omaha, Neb. Every
penny will go to the benefit OF the
helpless and homeless. All food sup
plies have advanced In prices. How
can the children be fed during the COM
ing winter? How can fuel be provid-
ed TO warm the building? How can
nurses and helpers De paid to take
care of the babies? The readers OF
this article, friends of the friendless.
are looked to for assistance to help
answer these questions. II people
could only understand and realize the
needs there would be generous re-
sponses.

That's Where the Driver Had the Beat
Of the Preacher.

A New York clergyman. who often
spends his vacation in fishing the
streams of the Adirondacks, was on
one trip adopted by handsome set

along the stream. "
One day he met party of men
working upstream with native guids.
The guide Immediately recognized the
dog as his own property.
Trying to steal my setter, are

I'll have you to Jail for this! There's
q law in the woods just as big as you
have in the city"
The clergyman endeavored to ex-
plain that he was an unwilling COM
panion of the dog, which had refused
to be driven away, but to little effect
until he added two-dollar bill to his
arguments.
ITS queer what strange things hap
pen to man up here" he said to the
stage-driver who later carried him
away from the woods. "That is the
first time was ever accused of steal

WHAT is PE-RU-NA?
Is 1t a Catarrh Remedy, or a
Tonic. or is il BOth2

Some people call Peruna q great
tonic Others refer to Peruna as
great catarrh remedy.
Which Of these people are rights
Is it more proper to call Peruna q ca
tarrh remedy than to call it a tonicG
Our reply is, that Peruna is both a
tonic and q catarrh remedy. Indeed,
there can be no efectual catarrh rem
edy that is not also tonic.
In order TO thoroughly relieve any
case Of catarrh, a remedy must not
only have specific action on the mu-
cous membranes affected by the ca
tarrh, bat it must have a general tonic
action on the nervous system.
Catarrh, even in persons who are
otherwise strong, Is q weakened con-
dition Of some mucous membrane.
There must be something to strength.

Perhaps no vegetable remedy in the
world has attracted so much attention
from medical writers as HYDRASTIS

cacy of this herb has been recognized
many years, and is growing in its hold

joined with CUBEBS and C0pAIBA a

runa which constitutes a specific rem
edy for catarrh that in the present
state Of medical progress cannot be
improved upon. This action, rein
forced by such renowned tonics as
C0LLINS0NIA CANADENSIS, COR
YDALIS F0RM0SA and CEDR0N
SEED, ought to make this compound
an ideal remedy for catarrh in all it's
stages and locations in the body.
From a theoretical standpoint, there.
fore, Peruna is beyond criticism. The
use Of Peruna, confirms this opinion.
Eumberless testimonials from every
quarter Of the earth furnish ample
evidence that this Judgment is not
over enthusiastic. When practical ex-
perience confrms a well-grounded the

much more satisfactory II the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, it is usually neces-
sary to use so much starch that the
beauty and fineness of the fabric is
hidden behind a paste of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear
