Increased Salaries of Teachers

Reports to the State Depart
.ment of Education show that
the new Iowa law in regard to
teachers certificates has had
the effect Of adding a great
deal to the total of salaries Of
the teachers in the common
schools. The law has resulted
in increasing the aggregate wa
ges for Iowa school teachers
for the year ending July 1, 1907
in the sum of 1898, 390.69. It
has increased the aggregate
wages for the two years ending
last July $780,316 85.
This new state law is the one
which abolished the custom Of
county superintendent grant,
ing second and third grade GER
tificates. Now the teachers
are given examinations in the
various counties by the super
intendents from questions fur
nished from the Office of the
state superintendent. The pa
pers are then examined by a
board of examiners appointed
by the state superintendent and
certificates are issued from the
state department.
Superintendent Riggs urges
that this raising of the stand
ard of efficiency among teach
ers has had the effect to raise
the aggregate salary Of teach
ers. He reports that county
districts that formerly paid but
$50 per month for teachers are
now paying $50 and even more
with prospects for other in.

IS Pe-ru-na Useful
for Catarrh?

Should a list of the ingredients of Pc
runa be submitted to any medical ex-
pert, of whatever school or nationality,
he would be obliged to admit without
reserve that the medicinal herbs COM
posing Peruna are of two kinds. First,
standard and well-tried catarrh reme-
dies. Second, well-known and gener-
ally acknowledged toni3 remedies.
That in one or the other of these uses
they have stood the test of many years
experience by physicians of differens
schools. There can be no dispute about
this, whatever. Peruna is composed OF
some of the most efficacious and uni
versally used herbal remedies for ca.
tarrhal diseases, and for such conditions
of the human system as require q tonic.
Each one of the principal ingredients
of Peruna has a reputation of its own
in the cure of some phase of catarrh or
as a tonic medicine.
The fact is, chronic catarrh is a dis.
ease which is very prevalent. Many
thousand people know they have
chronic catarrh. They have visited doc.
tors over and over again, and been told
that their case is n of chronic catarrh.
1t may be of the nose, throat, lungs,
stomach or come other internal organ:
There is nc doubt as to the nature OF
the disease. The only trouble is the
remedy. This doctor has tried to cure
them. That doctor has tried to pre-
scri be for them.
No other household remedy SO uni.
versally advertised carries upon he

showing that Peruna invites the full

MONSTER OREGOr ELK.
Bio Fellow Who Has Led Many Hunt
ers Wild Chase.

CTS fNliO STdSS,
James Hickman, who is just In
from a timber cruise in the Necani-
cum mountains, is able to verify the
legend of a monster elk, which has
led many hunters on a wild chase
through the mountains Of the Upper
Necanicum.
For years it has been reported that
an elk larger than any horse in Sea-
side. with a hoof that made a track
over seven inches in diameter, roamed
the woods near the head waters of
the Necanicum and the North Neha-
lem. He was too wary for the most
experienced hunters, who tried in vain
to stalk him.
Jim took a stroll while they were
incoming, and within a half mile from
camp came to an open glade contain
ing about eighty acres. Standing
within the edge Of the timber he
counted sixteen elk feeding ~leisurely
in the opening. He noticed three
bucks, good, large fellows, but he al.
most had the ague when he saw the
monarch of the herd, which he AYERS

The other bucks were large, but they
looked like pigmies by the side of the
