We found Peruna relief In several
cases.
We can say II Is q good tonic and we
are very thankful
Sisters of the Good Shepherd.
When catarrh once fastens itself upon
the system 1t becomes an obstinate dis
ease to eradicate.
A systemic remedy-one that reaches
every internal organ Of the body-is an
absolute necessity.
Peruna is just such a remedy. It
searches out the cause of the disease,
healing and strengthening the mucous
membranes, and thus giving Nature an
opportunity to perform her part of the
restorative process.
One of the many hospitals which have
found Peruna ofvalue in treating old and
obstinate cases of catarrh is the Hospital
st. John, who write as follows:
"We are happy to tell you that your
Peruna has given us satisfaction. Three
patients have tried it, one 6s years old
Renoui Dupuis, afflicted with catarrh, is
much relieved, more than he has been
for number Of years.
"A young girl, Is years Old, had an
obstinate cough, which half a bottle of
Peruna caused TO disappear.
las TO myself, two bottles have con-
vinced me that Peruna is magnificent
as tonic.

walk for quarter Of sn hour without

CATARRH Of the respiratory organs
~ is common ailment in Canada for
at least two-thirds of the year.
This condition is no doubt caused by
the long, severe winters experienced in
this part of the continent.
Therefore, when Peruna was discov-
cred by Canadian people to be reliable
remedy for these catarrhal diseases. it
at once became a popular medicine, not
only among individuals and in families,
but in the great hospitals, where it was
used as preventive and relief in hun
dreds Of cases.
These institutions do not hesitate to
give their endorsement of the remedy
which has been so helpful in the treat
ment of their poor and sick.
Among these institutions is that of
the Sisters of Good Shepherd, who gave
the following endorsement:
The Pernna Company
Columbus, Ohio,
Having used Peruna for the past few
months, for our sick and poor, we are
happy TO say that 1t has given US great
satisfaction.
The Sisters of the Good Shepherd,
August 20, 1908.
Montreal
After continued use of the remedy,
this institution has found no reason to
change its good opinion of the remedy
and expresses its satisfaction in the fol-
lowing terms:

BRYAN is SCORED.

With verse from Holy Writ as a
foreword and with maps showing the
waning democratic sentiment and
democratic vote of the United States
in the past decade as illustrations,
the New York World has just issued
a remarkable pamphlet entitled "The
Map of Organism" as campaign
document against Bryan as a presi-
Dental candidate.
The foreword is as follows. "And
every one that was in distress; and
every one that was in debt; and every
one that was discontented, gathered
themselves unto him; and he became
captain over them; and there were
with him about four hundred men,"
l. Samuel 22:2.
And then in most forcible and
sarcastic vein the World opens its
batteries upon Mr.. Bryan, introduce
ing the subject with this general ac-
cusation
For nearly 12 years. Mr.. Bryan,
you have been the leader, yea, the
dictator-of the democratic party in
the United States. With but one ex-
ception, its policies have been your
policies; its principles your princi-
pies; its platforms your platforms.
After 12 years of such domination,
during which time the party has gone
down to three successive national de-
feAts, piling disaster upon disaster
and ruin upon ruin, your friends in
sist not only that you are the most
available candidate for president in
1908, but that you are the ONLY
available candidate.
UNDER YOUR LEADERSHIP
THE PARTY HAS NOT BEEN IN
POWER A SINGLE DAY. A SINGLE
HOUR, A SINGLE MOMENT.
"It has steadily lost ground, until
at this time it is almost without force
n the north except locally; it is
menaced even at the south, where it
lost Kentucky in the last November
election and its ancient strongnolds
there are either in the hands of re-
publicans, or are held by tenure at
once precarious and disquieting."
After reviewing the present condi-
ton of the democratic party under
the Bryan domination, the World then
proceeds to dissect the Bryan doc
tr' mes from end to end and to show
why the people of the country have
not adopted them and why they per-
haps never will adopt them in their
present form.
1t is a most remarkable document
and must be read to be appreciated.
II will have much to do in shaping
the outcome of the presidential cam
paign of 1908 Send to the New
York World for a copy and study it,

Living Relatives Of Washin ston.

Many kindred of George Washing
ton dwell ON and about the original
Washington plantation in Westmore-
land county, Virginia; writes Guy f..
Mitchell in the Technical World Mag
azinc for February.
John Washington, of Brighton parish,
Northamptonshire, England, came to
Virginia in 1857 and bought farm on
the Potomac river between Bridge
Creek and Pope's Creek, in what was
then Northumberland county, but
which long, long ago, became West
moreland county. He bought the farm
from Col. Pope, great landholder in
the early colonial era, and whose
daughter, Anne Pope, became the wife
of the immigrant John Washington.
These were the great grand parents of
George Washington the Great.
John Washington through his mar
riage to Anne Pope obtained lands out
side of the farm purchased by him.
The original farm is owned by John F..
Wilson, who married Miss Betty Wash
ington, granddaughter of William Aug
Justine Washington, nephew of George
Washington. Mr.. and Mrs. Wilson
are advanced in years. A score or
more Of Washingtons live on the spot
where George Washington was born.
Some of these people are prosperous
farmers. They are all plain and SIM
pie folk who have the good will and re-
spect Of their neighbors. A peculiar
thing about this family is that all its
members have the distinctive Washing.

PR. r. Retrenchment Policy Hurts Tren-


Trenton has been hit hard by the re-
trenchment policy of the Pennsylvan-
ia railroad. Early in November close
to 100 employees of the local repair
shops were laid off indefinitely, and
since then there have been further re-
auctions of the working force. Those
who are working are doing so on
short hours.
It is not lack of work which neces-
states the laying Off of these men ac-
cording to prominent official of the
railroad company. There is enough
work to keep the entire force busy
for an unlimited time but reduced in
come makes necessary limitation Of
the outgo.
1t is not only at the car shops that
the retrenchment order prevails.
Numbers OF car inspectors aud others
in minor positions have been either
laid off or are working shorter time.
1t is only a matter of short time,
however, according to the official
quoted, when the railroad company
will have to return all these men to
their places or secure others.
Many of those who were employed
at the car shops have left Trenton in
search OF work IN other parts of the
country. Some of them are expert
machinists.
The order affects men employed at
the Worthwhile yards as well as at the
| Trenton shops, but it is the same over
the entire Pennsylvania system.
With the clearing up of the indus
trial situation cloud the business of
the company will make necessary
restoration of former conditions.

FOREWARNED, FOREARMEO.

10 THE CITIZENS OF LAMBERTvILLE:-
l was pleased to learn that the show
billed for the Holcombe Hall, Satur-
day was not allowed to go there as
that place for meetings or entertain
ments should have been closed long
ago and we should thank Providence
that disaster similar to that of Boy
ertown has not ere this overwhelmed
us
l think that the citizens of this
pretty town ought to have enough
public spirit to build commodious
and safe plaeein W hieh to hold politi-
cal and other gatherings, lectures and
entertainments and we then could
command such talent (which at the
present time we cannot cater to) as
would edify and prevent to great ex-
tent the spending OF good deal of
money at Trenton and elsewhere.
Let us get together and as early as
possible have steps taken to ensure us
in case of panic or fire u chance of
getting out in safety, that is if the
Holcombe Hall is to be used any more
in the future; the only means of exit
is by the long steep stairs and | am
sure it has been the thought of many
others when crowded the tremendous
risk we incurred in being there.
Even New Hope is ahead of us and
from time 10 time we can find there
things worth seeing and listening to
and I trust before very long that Lam
bertville may be able to get first class
talent which would be the means of
bringing more people into the town
and help business along.
