State Capital Notes
Weekly Budget Gathered by Our
Special Correspondent at Madison.

Madison.-The decision to make no
change in the membership OF the new
ly organized WisconsnIllinois League
of Professional Baseball Clubs, which
succeeds the Wisconsin State league
Of the past season, is probably wise
one. To try to split up the old league
and form two new ones would have
been a confession of weakness from
the start, and might have operated in
a number Of ways to create friction
and confusion detrimental to the
game The Wisconsin league is now
pretty well established, and although
there has been a slight change in the
name the retention of the same mem
bership will start the league on next
season with the advantage of its
former prestige, and a clear under
standing by the fans" of the various
cities represented as to just what kind
Of ball they can expect. For minor
league there is no question that the
teams which have played in the Wis,
COnsin league during the past season
are considerably above the average,
and the result has been some very fine
exhibitions of ball playing, which have
been greatly appreciated by the fol-
lowers Of the sport. Although the
winning of the state pennant by the
Freeport team probably caused a triie
Of dissatisfaction TO some. who could
not tear 70 think of the strictly state
teams being outclassed in this man
ner, nevertheless, the FreepOrt play
ers and the FreepOrt people have done
their full share to keep up interest in
the game and the honest and impartial
fans are free TO admit that the pen
nant was won fairly and squarely, and
that Frceport is entitled to the credit
BY hyphenating the name of the new
ly organized league, a certain amount
Of recognition has been given to the
FreepOrt club which was no more
than its due under the circumstances.
On the other hand, IL will not look so
queer" another time to have an Hi
nois team win the Wisconsin pennant,
should Freeport happen to again be
the lucky one. In the same manner
and for the same reason it will be an
additional honor to any Wisconsin
club which captures the league pen
nant in the future, for it will become
the champion team of "WisCOnsin-llli-
nois," instead of Wisconsin alone
Thus a substantial and satisfactory
basis has been laid for successful
season of baseball next year, under
conditions that should prove even
more advantageous than prevailed
during the season which has just
rlnsnd

Saw Il Come Out of Cow.

A little city boy and his sister
Dorothy were taken to the country
for the first time.
The two children were happy as the
day was long In the late afternoon
they watched the COWS come home,
heard with delight the tinkling COW
bells, and the little boy even went to
the barns to see the milking done.
At supper, just as Dorothy was lift
ing her glass to her rosy lips, the boy
cried out,
ooh, Dotty don't You mustn't drink
that milk It's not fit to drink. 1t
came out of a COW; | saw it."

WHAT is PE.RU-NA?
Is it a Catarril Remedy, Or q
Tonic, or is it Both?

Tonic, or is it Both?
Some people call Peyuua a grea.
tonic. Others refer to Peruna as a
great catarrh remedy.
Which Of these people are right?
Is it more proper to call Peruna a ca
tarrh remedy than to call it a tonic?
Our reply is, that Peruna is both q
tonic and a catarrh remedy. Indeed,
there can be no efectual catarrl rem.
edy that is not also tonic.
In order to thoroughly relieve an
case of catarrh, a remedy must not
only have q specific action on tho ma.
cous membranes affected by the ca
tarrh, but it must have a general tomb
action on the nervous system.
Catarrh, even in persons who arc
otherwise strong, is weakened con.
dition Of some mucous membrane.
There Mrst be something to strength
en- the circulation, to give tone to the
arteries, and to raise the vital forces
Perhaps no vegetable remedy in the
world has attracted so much attention
from medical writers as HYDRASTIS
CANADENSIS. The wonderful eff.
cacy of this herb has been recognized
many years, and is growing in its hold
upon the medical profession. When
joined with CUBEBS and C0PAIBA a
trio of medical agents is formed in Pc.
runa which constitutes 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
COLLINSONIA CANADENSIS, COR
YDALIS FORMOSA and CEDRON
SEED, ought to make this compound
an ideal remedy for catarrh in all its
stages and locations in the body.
From theoretical standpoint, there
fore, Peruna is beyond criticism. The
use of Peruna, confirms this opinion.
Numberless testimonials from every
quarter of the earth furnish ample
evidence that this judgment is not
over enthusiastic. When practical ex-
perience confirms a well-grounded the.
DRY the result is a truth that cannot be
shaken.
