National Corn Exposition.

Wyoming is to have an exhibit
at the National Corn Exposition
to be held in Omaha December 9
to 10.
This was decided when Cover
nor Brooks met his friend Ever
EFT Buckingham, general manager
of the South Omaha stock yards
at the Frontier Dav celebration
in Cheyenne. With a special car
of Omahans and South Omahans,
Mr.. buckingham WAS taking in
the Cheyenne "horse show" He
is a director in the National Corn
Exposition and suggested to Gov
ernor Brooks that Wyoming
should be represented.
Such a proposition looked good
to the governor. He called in A.
K. Whitley, custodian Of the Wy
oming agricultural and mineral
exhibits and Mr.. Buckingham
found j. Wilkes Jones, manager
of the corn show who was also in
Cheyenne. The four talked it
over and Judge Carey was told
about the plan. 1t met the Judges
approval and he promised to sup
port the work in every way posi-
BILE.
AS a result of this informal con-.
ference and chance meeting Wy
oming will not be behind her sis
ter states in making an agricultur-
al exhibit at Omaha The grain
growers of the state are already
planning an exhibit and classes
have been arranged by the exposi-
ton management especially for
the Wyoming grains, which will
enable them to graduate into the
western zone and world classes.
Governor Brooks is urging a
publicity campaign for the "Wy-
oming Commonwealth Exhibit
and the management of the corn
exposition has already made it
known that Wyoming is in on the
big agricultural show and reserv-
ed space for the exhibit

VANDERB|LTS FIGHT
FOR Child or SIX
HUSBAND RESISTS AN EFFORT
ON WIFE'S PART TO GAIN
CUSTODY OF BOY.
ALIMONY OF $1,5OO,OOO
is ALSO A BIG FACTOR
That Amount Said to Have Been
Offered, But Counsel for Plaintiff
Declares Amount Too Small, Ac-
cordng to One Report.

New York, Apr. A hard legal bat
tie for the custody of their six-year-old
son will be fought by Mr.. and Mrs.
Alfred G. Vanderbilt in their present
divorce proceedings before Referee
David Mcclure.
Mrs. Vanderbilt insists that the child
be left in her charge, subject to such
restrictions in the matter of visiting
the father as the court may see fit to
impose. Mr.. Vanderbilt will fight this
proposition to the limit. He wants the
boy himself
This easily is the most important
question to be decided in the litigation
alimony made by Mrs. Vanderbilt, al
though this is something of an issue in
itself. Mrs. Vanderbilt insists on
some huge amount not yet stated.
Talk Of 81, 100000 Alimony.
Mr.. Vanderbilt has agreed to pay
disposition of the child satisfactorily
arranged, his defense to his wifes suit
will be passive. Otherwise he will
make an active defense.
The ground upon which Mrs. Van
derbilt's suit is brought has not been
made public. She might have brought
action in Rhode Island, where she was
living, upon any one of several
grounds. Any action for divorce in
New York must be based on the statu.
tory cause.
Valet Is First Witness.
Referee Mcclure took evidence Fri
day. The first witness was How
ard Kempster, who was Cornelius Van
derbilt's valet, and who became valet
for Alfred G. Vanderbilt when the lat
ter became the head of the family upon
his fathers death.
1t is said that Kempster has enjoyed
a position with Mr.. Vanderbilt consid-
erably more confidential than that of
the ordinary valet, and the fact that
he was left behind as witness when
his employer sailed for Europe is taken
to indicate the taking of the evidence
will proceed rapidly and that the hear
ings will reach an early conclusion.
No member of the Vanderbilt family
has yet attended the hearing, But Mrs.
Alfred G. Vanderbilt may be called to
testify to the date Of her marriage

The Evolution of
Household Remedies.

The modern patent medicine bust.
ness is the natural outgrowth Of the
old.time household remedies.
In the carly history Of this country,
EVERY FAMILY HAD ITS HOME
MADE MEDICINES. Herb teas,
bitters, laxatives and tones, were to be
found in almost every house, compound
ed BY the housewife, sometimes assisted
by tho apothecary or tho family doctor.
Such remedies AZ picra, which was
aloes and quassia, dissolved in apple
brandy. Sometimes a hop tonic, made
Of whiskey, hops and bitter banks. A
score OF more Of popular, homemade
remedies were thus compounded, the
formulaa for which were passed along
from house to house, sometimes written,
sometimes verbally communicated. 10
The patent medicine business is q
natural outgrowth from this whole.
some, old-time custom. In the Begin
ming, some enterprising doctor, i'm
pressed by the usefulness of one of
these homemade remedies, would take
it up, improve it in many ways, manu-
facture it on a large scale, advertise il
mainly through almanacs for the home,
and thus it would become used over q
large area. LATTERLY THE HOUSE,
HOLD REMEDY BUSINESS TOOK
A MORE EXACT AND SCIENTIFIC
FORM.
Peruna was originally ono Of these
old-time remedies. It was used by tho
Mennonites, Of Pennsylvania, before it
was offered to tho public for sale. DR..
Hartman, THE ORIGINAL COM
FOUNDER OF PERUNA, is of Men
MONTE origin. First, he prescribed it
for his neighbors and his patients.
Tbs sale Of it increased, and at last he
established a mandatory and fur
nished it to tho general drug trade.
Peruna is useful in a great many
climatic ailments, such as coughs, colds,
sore throat, bronchitis, and catarrhal
diseases generally. THOUSANDS OF
FAMILIES HAVE LEARNED THE
USE OF PERUNA and its value in the
treatment Of these ailments. They
have learned to trust and believe in
DR.. Hartman's Judgment, and to rely
on his remedy, Peruna.
