THE OLDEST Man I'M AMERICA
Escaped the errors Of
! Many Winters BY
- Using Pe-ru-na.

IN speaking of his good health and
4 extreme old age, Mr.. Brock says:
CATER a man has lived in the world
as long as L have, he ought to have
found out a great many things by ex-
per1ence. I think I have done so.
"One of the things 4 have found
out to my entire satisfaction is the
proper thing for ailments that
are due directly to the effects of
the climate. For rs years 4 have
Wifhsf0od the changeabIe climate
of the United States.
81 have always been q very healthy
man, but o~flcourse, subject to the af-
fectSons which are due to sudden
changes in the climate and temperature.
GAS for DR.. Harfman,s remedy,
Peruna, 1 have found it to be the
best, if not the only reliable REM
edy for these affections. 1t has
been my standby for many years,
N 4 attribute my good health
and extreme old age to this REM
edy.
ut exactly meets all my require
ments. It protects me from the evil eff
fects Of sudden changes; it gives me
strength; it keeps my blood in good cir
culation. I have come to rely upon it
almost entirely for the many little
things for which I need medicine.
"When epidemics Of la grippe first
began to make their appearance in this
country I was a sufferer from this dis
ease.
81 had several long sieges with
the grip. At first 1 did NOT know
that Peruna was q remedy for
this disease. When I heard that
la grippe was epidemic catarrh,
I tried Peruna for Ia grippe and
found it to be just the thing"
In q later letter. Mr.. Brock writes:
"I am well and feeling as well as I
have for years. L would not be with.
out Peruna."
Yours truly,
Mo~~ %~M
A letter dated July 8, 1906, written for
Mr.. Brock by his wife, Sarah J.. Brock,
states:
"Last winter I had Just gotten
up out of q spell of sickness, when
I commenced taking Peruna. 7
think it improved my health very
much."
In a postscript, Mrs. Brock adds: "He
receives q great many letters inquiring
about what Peruna will do. I do not
answer them all, as I think they can
get a bottle and try it."

phine Brown and Mrs. ]. B.
Clifford and while they had little
to do did that well. Mrs. Isa-
belle Thulemeyer as Becky Green
the energetic old maid, gave a
most laughable performance,
both in acting and make up.
Fanny Brown, the other twin, by
Miss lone McIntire, was as full
of mischief as could be desired
and sang two beautiful songs.
Mr.. Perry Wendtland was on the
program for two songs and sang
them well, as he always does.
The musical selections by Mrs.
Effie Hughes and Mr.. S. A. Thule
meyer were all well rendered by
these two accomplished music
ians.
Taken all together no better
performance could have been
given by professionals. The
house was crowded and receipts
reached the nice sum Of $4,000.
A dance was given after the
performance. Come again,

of ladies'. The receipts from the

AT night the young people gave
an entertainment at the opera
house consisting Of the farce
comedy in three acts entitled
Those Dreadful Twins This
was genuine laughing success,
and the characters taken were as
follows: Mr.. Joe Kunetka as
Deacon Josiah Brown had the
leading part and his make up and
acting was perfect from start to
flnlsh. Joe surprised even MS
most intimate friends. Mr. Ed
win VOTERS as Deacon Whitbeck
also gave a good performance
and these two made a good pair.
Mr.. Albert Wandel as Sheriff
O'Brien played the part to per
lection and created much laugh

Mr.. Lee Grasshoff was Lynx, the

THE BOYS
ON A HUNT

This morning more than fifty large
boys of the Indian school and lot
of the small boys went out toward
the Book cliffs. armed with clubs and
sticks. prepared to make a big round
up of rabbits. The boys scattered
over large section of the desert and
then closed in toward each other and
in that way rounded up a good many
cotton-tails and slaughtered the ma
jority of them with their primitive
weapons.
The little boys couldn't stand the
cold and so came back to the school
early in the day; but the big boys
stayed out until late in the after
noon and had great sport.
There will be rabbit for Sunday
