SAYS HE MARRIED IN
FEAR OF DEATH

Forced by an irate mother to marry a
girl who asserts he had wronged her, is
the story Of Martin Grimm. a bTiCklayeT,
whom Judge Morse ordered on Friday
should pay 10 his wife $40 a month all
m0nv until her suit for divorce is heard.
Grimm yesterday filed an answer to his
wifs's suit. in which he made the ssser-
ton that nc married her under fear OF
death. He says that Mary Grimm and
her mother before the marriage repre-
scented to him that he was shortly to be
come a father. when they knew that
the child was that Of another. The moth
ct went further and threatened him with
instant death il he did not wed. and the
younger woman made the remark that if
he did not she would Elk him 50 that
ne couldn't marry any one else Under
this pressure ne says he consented TO
become a married man.
This is the third case in which the
Grimms have been before the divorce
court The first was brought BY Mrs
Grimm on March }, 1905. charging non
support and desertion. This was shortly
after the marriage and for some reason
or other il was dismissed.
Then Grimm brought suit. but ne also
failed to press it. The last suit was
filed on March / by Mrs. Grimm. It
charges non-support and desertion, and
asks for alimony.

the new law, applicants must show that
their training is equal to a four years
High school course. and they are also
required to show certificates from a
course in psychology and theory of ed
ucatiOn, OF to pass an examination on
these subjects.
Another blow aimed at incompeteuts
was contained in house bill No 90,
which gives county superintendent of
schools authority to supervise the hir-
ing of teachers. 1t is said by Mr. Woot-
ton that in some of the rural districts
il has long been a practice for the local
school board to hire friends OF relatives
Of members. without regard to their
qualifications as teachers. 1t is also
thought that incompetent teachers from
remote districts applying for new posi-
tons can be more easily recognized and
refused by the county superintendent
than by local boards.
House bill No los is an economic
measure intended TO assist the interests
of educatiO in localities where no High
school is available. The bill provides
for the payment OF a portion of the
transportation expense of pupils where
1t can be proved to be cheaper to carry
them d reasonable distance than to
maintain a High school in the district.
At present Draper students. fourteen in
number, go TO sandy each morning at
their own expense.

IMPORTANT MEASURES
TO. REGULATE FOODS

The legislature was deluged with
pure food and health bills, whose con-
ficting character showed cOnclusively
the absence of Il master hand in the
guidance of this legislation. The most
important bills passed was senate bill
No. so, providing for state food com
mission, with representatives from the
various industries coming within the
scope of the law. This bill provides for
complete reorganization Of the food
inspection department. Senate bill No
$50, by Marks. providing that the name
Of the manufacturer with the weight
or measure. shall be stamped on every
package containing a food product
was killed by the senate yesterday An
other bill probiding that ali poultry
must be drawn before being shipped
was also killed. Among the meritorious
measures which failed TO get through,
were the bills providing for the label
ing of cold storage products and the in
spectiOn of diaries. Salt Lake City is
provided for, however. in a bill giving
cities wider powers In the inspection
and regulation Of foods. This bill
which has become a law, is designed 10
reach abuses which hitherto have been
beyond the city's power to regulate. A
measure making il a misdemeanor to
use false devices in testing milk was
passed.

Speaker E W. Robinson of the house

the following statement concerning the
session just closed:

There was never a time when the

Are Drugs Necessary?
Do Drugs Cure DiSeaSe?7
Can Nature be Assisted?

II people were born right and after
wards lived right, there would DO no
use for medicine. Every doctor knows
this. So do other welI-informed people.
One thing more. When person lives
wrongly, or acquires bodily weakness by
heredity, medicine can do only very
little. Medicine cannot cure him. Only
charlatans claim that medicines will
cure disease. Medicines may palliate
symptoms. Medicines may urge the
powers of Nature toresist disease. Med
ieines sometimes arouse the efforts Of the
human body to right itself against dc
engagements. This is the most that med
icine can do.
A man accidentally puts his finger in
the fire. Instinctively he vets his
finger in his mouth, then blows on it
for the cooling effect. This is no cure.
He knows it very well. But it makes it
feel better for the time being.
People eat unwisely. This produces
dyspepsia or indigestion. The only
rational cure is to eat correctly. Yet if
palliative is at hand the pains of indi-
gestion can be mitigated, the throes of
dyspepsia assuaged. The medicine can
not be said to have cured. 1t simply
palliates disagreeable symptoms. The
cure must come through right living.
Take Peruna, for instance. No one
claims Peruna is a cure for dyspepsia.
But PeruRa will stimulate the stomach
to perform its function properly. Peru
ma Will increase the flow of digestive
fluids, without which digestion caunot
be carried on at all. 1t will increase the
relish of food, the appetite.
1t is admitted that all this can be
accomplished by right living, but there
are so many people who either will not
or do not know how TO eat correctly that
tremendous amount of good can be
done by the wise use of Peruna.
A stomach that has been frequently
abused performs the function of diges-
ton very Iazily. Such stomach allows
the food to remain undigested for some
time after it is swallowed. This leads |
TO fermentation of the food. Sour stom- |
ach is the result. This goes on week /
after week, until the blood is poisoned /
with the products of fermentation. This !
condition is very apt to produce rheum-
atism.
tits not claimed that Peruua will cure
rheumatism. Nothing will cure rheum
atism but correct living. But it is
claimed that Peruna Will assist badly
abused stomach to perform its work. !

II is visa TO use care in the selection

My brothers family has used Postum

use Postum.
a number of other families we know
here who were habitual coffee drinkers,

sickness is caused by drinking coffee.

PARK CITY HAPPENINGS.

Park City. March 20.-The people of
Park City are rejoicing today over the
victory of the High school debating team.
All the pupils and some parents were at
the train to meet the 'conquering he
roes." Park City is justly proud OF this
debating team. as the boys are three Of
the youngest in High school, and are all
freshmen.
one of the saddest affairs that has
happened within the past few days was
the case of Mrs. Sydney EDperson. The
lady was returning to her home IN Park
from Heber. bring with her her nine
months-old infant. Fearing the child
would suffer from the cold. she wrapped
the baby well in shawls, and when close
to Park uncovered the child's face to see
how it was and found that it had been
smothered to death.
After a high wind for several hours
this morning, the snow is coming down
in nice style. just reminding the people
of Park that winter is still with us.

ways, undoubtedly the stomach woult
right itself, Che blood would rid itself O
the poison, and everything would b,

multitude Of people who will not OF can

such people Peruna is boon. A doss

In other words, Peruns IS helpful e

Peruna does not cure, but it assists the
powers of Nature TO bring about cure.
The whip does not increase the power
of the horse to pull load, but judi.
ciOusly used it stimulates the horse to
use his powers at the right time. with
out which he could not have pulled the
load.
This illustrates the effect of Peruna,
or any other good remedy upon the sys-
TEN. Taken at the right time, it calls
forth the powers of the human system
to meet the en- roaehments of disease,
and thus cuts short, if not entirely ends,
the diseased action.
No one should ever attempt to substi-
tute medicine in the place Of right liv-
ing. In the end such an attempt will
prove a disaster. Butan occasional use
of the right medicine at the right time
is a godsend, and no reasonable person
will undertake to deny it.
Those who know how to use Peruna
find it of untold value. By and by the
world Will get wise enough so that
through correct living no medicine at
all will be needed. But that time has
not arrived. In the meantime, while
the world is approaching that perfec-
ton in which all medicine will be elm
mated, Peruua is a handy remedy to
have in the house.
Slight arrangements of tho stomach

,erning it. If so, address the Peruns
