Beginner Resented Wife's Enjoyment
OF His Mistake.

A Kansas City man, who had fol-
lowed stock quotations, football scores
and race form sheets more closely
than he had religious and literary mat
tiers, recently was persuaded by his
wife to read aloud each evening from
the Old Testament TO improve the
knowledge Of both on Biblical matters.
The man became interested in the
story of the scriptures and read aloud
several evenings with great gusto and
pleasure. One night as he was swing.
ing along he read: And they horse
whipped the beasts"
Hold on" exclaimed his wife.
What was that?"
They horsewhipped the beasts" he
repested, and continued reading His
wife get up from her sewing, crossed
the room, looked over his shoulder and
read:
They worshiped the beasts
There" she said, Il knew the word
horsewhipped was not IN the Bible
Hei He!"
The man closed the Bible with a
snap, clasped the snap, and that con-
cluded the readings for all time.

CATARRH MADE LIFE
A BURDEN TO Me.

MISS ANNIE CATRON, 9e7 Main
Ava ST., Cincinnati. Ohio, writes:
las l have found Peruna a blessing
for severe case of catarrh of the head
and throat which / suffered from for a
number of years, am only too pleased
to give it my personal endorsement.
"Catarrh, such as | suffered from,
made life burden to me, my breath
was offensive, stomach bad, and my
mead stopped up so that i was usually
trou bled with headache, and although
l tried many so-called remedies, moth
ing gave me permanent relief. 1 was
rather discouraged with all medicines
when Peruna was suggested to me-
However, did buy bottle, and be-
fore that was finished there was
marked change in my condition. Much
encouraged | kept on until was COM
piefeLy cured in months time, and
find that my general health is also ex-
cellent."
People who prefer solid medicines
should try Peruna tablets. Each tablet
represents one average dose of Peruna.

New Use for Table Oil Cloth.

A woman who is always discovering
things about the hot BE that nobody
else ever thought of says that the
oilcioth used for kitchen tables makes
an excellent floor covering IL used over
felt padding.
1t has the merit, moreover, OF COM
ing in daintier patterns than the Or
binary oilcloth used for kitchens. II
can be kept perfectly clean by scrub
bling with soapy water made from a
good white soap. Do not rub the soap
ON the oilcloth itself, but instead make
strong suds. The strong yellow
soaps used In most kitchens will soon
wear OF the luster OF the oilcloth and
make 1t dull and shabby looking. Wipe
the floor perfectly dry with a clear
soft cloth.

of honor, that they must pour
filthy politics into every action,

It is in duty to the people

that now they are seeking to
invade the ranks of the rail

worst of all they are casting a
garment of innocence around
themselves in the hopes of
hood-winking the people, but
in the words of the greatest
leader, "just remember that

HOW ABE YOU TO VOTE7
There are q number of cues

others are the following:

the party which "straddles" on
the tariff question, declares for
REVISION (which it has failed
to bring about in twelve years,
and makes this half hearted
declaration because it is forced
to do coy in indefinite language,
some raising and some lower
ing. and no definite binding
declaration, or shall we put in
to power the party which
specifically demands a REDUc-
r1oN of the tariff, has not been
forced into that declaration,
gives us no imitation of a
"straddle," and demands that
trust goods be put on the free
list.
End. Shall we put into
power the party that makes a
half hearted declaration against
Government by Injunction,
because it is forced to do 80, or
shall we elect a president,
standing on a platform speci-
fically, definitely, sincerely
opposed to Government by
Injunction, and which takes
that position, unforced by
the opposing party, but be
cause it is itself the demand
ing party.
3rd. Shall we elect a presi-
dent who stands on q platform

of Bank Deposits, and who is,

is silent on the question, but
