In old age the mucous membranes be-
come thickened and partly lose their
function.
This leads to partial loss of hearing,
smell and taste, as well as digestive
disturbances.
Peruna corrects all this by its eff
cient operation on all the mucous men,
branes of the body.
One bottle will convince any one.
Once used and Peruna becomes a life
long standby with old Ind young.
Peruna Contains No Narcotics
One reason why Peruna has found
permanent use in so many homes is
that it contains no narcotic of any
kind.

with more than satisfactory results.

PULLMAN COMPANY PROTESTS
Declares It Is Not Common Carrier.
Will Fight Case.
Files Statement with Interstate
Commerce Commission Averring
Right TO Fix own Rates.

Denying that IL Is q common carrier.
and, therefore. not ameuable TO the laws
governing OF regulating commerce be
tween the States. the Pullman Sleeping
Car Company yesterday gave 10 the In
terstate Commerce Commission what
amounts to a notice that the c0nstitu-
tionality Of the railroad rate act. in so
far as Il applies 90 sleeping car C0mpa-
nies, viii be put TO the test of judicial
procedure. The Pullman Company. in
asserting that il is not a common car
rier contends that It's operations are not
subject to regulation or control by the
Interstate Commerce Commission.
The Pullman Companys attitude to-
ward the railroad rate act was disclosed
in its reply 10 the charges made by
George S. Lotus. a travelling salesman,
living in 81. Paul who fled with the
commission a complaint against the Pull
man Company and several Northwestern
railroads, among them the Great North
ern and the Northern Pacific. He al
legged that the rates charged for sleeping
car accommodations between certain
and unreasonable and that the practice
OF the company in charging as much for
an upper as for lower berth consti-
tuted a discrimination within the mean
ing Of the law
The Pullman Company denies that its
rates for berths are excessive. unjust or
unreasonable, and likewise combats the
proposition that charge for an upper
equal to that collected for lower is
discriminatory or unfair In any event.
the Pullman company states in substance
that the commission has no jurisdiction.
Government officials say that the an
swcr Of the Pullman company means that
the question as 10 vhtther sleeping car
companies are common carriers viii have
70 be fought out i'm the courts
The law requires all common carriers 20
file schedules Of rates with the commits
sion. The sleeping car companies have
complied with this feature of the law
under protest, denying at every filing the
right of the commission 10 require their
compliance with any provision Of the act.

chief Pacific ports of Guatemala are San

The Pacific Mail maintains a regular
fortuightly service. touching et these
ports on their voyages between San Fran

the coffee season. A German line con-
meets these ports with the west coast Of
South America, as well as with California

Panama and ports Of Ecuador, Peru, and
Chile can readily extend their service
uorthward 20 Guatemala, Mexico, and
California. On the Atlantic side, ships
are engaged In the fruit trade with New
York and Boston. and there are weekly
vessels between New Orleans. Mobile, and
