sumption of the bowels. One doctor
said he could cure me. took his medi-
cine two months, but it did me no good.
ga friend of mine advised me to try
Peruna and did SO. After had taken
two bottles found 1t was helping me,

M Testimony of These Three Housewives Demonstrates Beyond All C
That Peruna Is a Safe and Useful Remedy.
Constipation, Torpid Liver.

Mrs. Anthony Rauch, 3O6 N. Walnut
street, Bucyrus, o., writes:
81 was suffering from obstinate con-
stipation and torpid liver, when took

Peruna and Manalin. When had taken
only one bottle felt much better, and
since I have taken two more bottles l
feel entirely well, but L will continue
taking the medicine for short time to
make sure of my cure.

remedies for constipation that 1 ever
tried. / will never be without it. 1t
has made me so strong. 1 can do a
days work and never tire. 1 am SO
glad I do not get those dizzy spells any
more. 1 haven't bad one since L took

COMELY NATIONS PRAISE PERUNA

The only valuable testimony which any household remedy
have the testimony of those who have used it. 1t
is than useless to discuss Peruna from theo-
retical standpoint. It is what Peruna will do, not
\ what people say about it, that constitutes evil
dence. The housewives of the United States

BROAD GETS
CONTRACT

Contractor James Broad, lowest
bidder for the northside force main
Improvement, was awarded the
contract by the board of public
works this morning following his
agreement in writing to do extra
work which may be required at a
unit price based on his contract
figure. His bid was ,$103,70S.50.
The postponement of the award
by the board yesterday gave union
men opportunity last night to 60
before the city council in an en-
deavor to secure a resolution that
the board not grant the contract,
but do the work by day labor. AL
though Thomas Maloney. business
agent of Federal union No. 1924,
attended the meeting he made no
effort to interest councilmen in the
day labor plan.
The Broad bid exceeds the city
engineers estimate Of $4,000 by
$7,70S.

TORiouS -FLo DARLING"

Flo Darling's road house on East
Sprague avenue has become a pc.
litical issue before the county COM
missioners on the formation of the
new township boundary lines. AS
at present mapped. out, Flo's resort
will come within the confines of
Opportunity township, which is
planned to take IN the ground east
Of the city limits In the valley. The
people east of the city think that
they can vote the road house out
of business next March, and want
the township to stand as at present
mapped out.
Flo Darling is fighting for the
continuance of her place, and has
had movement started to cut off
from Opportunity township strip
three miles wide east and west and
about six miles in length north and
south abutting the city limits on
the east. and form the same into a
township d Its own, on the ground
that 1t is mostly cut up into city
lots and sufficiently well popu.
lated to support a township of It's
own.
1t is said that In this limited
area Flo Darling figures she can
get sufficient people to vote for a
wet" township to permit her to
continue in business.
The advocates OF the original
township of Opportunity, or in
other words those opposed to sa-
looms, have employed Gallagher &
Thayer. who have had Judge Hin
kle TO issue a restraining order
prohibiting the commissioners
from taking any further action In
the matter until the same is heard
! in court On December Is.

If the Monroe street bridge is
built in accordance with the &C.
ceptance of plans last night by the
city council another bridge bond
issue of 100000 will be necessary.
This will make a total of 100000
the city will have raised for
bridges in the past two years.
Out of the original issue of $780,
900 the city has the Washington
street bridge complete and the Mis-
sion and Howard street bridges I'M
der construction, with no little
bridge building experience to boot.
The new Monroe bridge will cost
1914 900 according to the city en-
gineer's estimate, with possibly
$4,000 added for purchase of
equipment If the work is done by
day labor. That the work will be
done by day labor is believed to be
certain and the extra equipment
cost will not reach the estimate for
the reason that much of the ma
chinery used on the Washington
bridge can be utilized at Monroe.
Councilman Mohr, who moved
acceptance of the plans last night,
favors day labor with strict prefer
ence for Spokane heads of families
in employment. He will not OBJ
