April, 1908, and on the first page OF this

ventures. Tuesday the world was
startled by a dispatch from Commander
Robert E. Peary, stating that he had
nailed the American flag to the North
Pole in April, 1909. Following so closely
TO each other, the two remarkable an
nouncementS present coincidence that
is the talk OF the world.

his claim, but no one disbelieves Com
mander Peary's statement, although al

WE heartily favor the calling of a
special session of the Legislature, as sug-
geSted, for the purpose of acting upon a
bill for placing tax upon natural gas
production, a county local-option law and
primary election measure. Even if the
whiskey interests and the Standard Oil
Company should succeed in defeating
these measures, with the assistance oil
corrupt politicians, il would show who
of the Legislators are crooked, and the
people could have opportunity to replace
them before the next regular session with
honest men.
Somehow, though, we believe that the
above named measures would be success
full. The people are demanding such
laws, and even the boldest and most
corrupt politicians must, sooner or later,
yield TO public sentiment.
OF course there would be no trouble in
the House, and the only trouble would
be In the venal State Senate.

A Tribute of Respect to the Memory
of Mr.. }. q. Knutti.

OF Mr.. j. u. knutti.
The sad news of the death of Mr..
Knutti came as shock to the members Of
the class of '04, Shepherd College. Each
member of our class feels personal loss
in his death. The class OF 1904 being the
first class to graduate under his principal
ship, we feel perhaps more keenly his
loss, for he was always ready and willing
to give us advice and help us in any man
nef possible, and he felt personal inter
est in each member of the class. In evil
dence of our esteem for him Our class was
named "The John q. Knutti Class" and
we shall always cherish his memory and
esteem if an honor to have been so close
" associated with one whose unselfish
devotion to the cause OF education and
whose lofty ideals have given us inspira-
ton and courage to fight the battle OF life
A gentleman and scholar has gone to
his reward.

loss of every liquor subscriber who seeks
by Withdrawing his patronage TO brighten

second paper in the county to come out
flatfooted against the saloon, and we hope
that the other four may see their way
clear TO dothe same thing. The Register

Are Drugs Necessary?
Do Drugs Cure Disease?
Can Nature be Assisted?

If a person would correct his habits, |
persist in right eating ANA temperate
ways, undoubtedly the stomach would
right itself, the blood woald rid itself Of
the poison, and verything would be
right. But as said before there are q
multitude of people who will not or can
not adopt right methods of living. To
such people Peruna Is a boon. A dose
before meals will assist the stomach to
do its work. This prevents fermenta-
ton Of the food, brings about normal
digestion, and all the train Of ills that
follow indigestion disappear.
In other words, Peruna Is helpful to
those who live badly, or those who
have acquired some chronic weakness.
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 tho sys-
|
forth the powers of the human system
to meet the en- roachments 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 disaster. But an occasional use
of the right medicine at the right time
is 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, Pcruna is a handy remedy to
have in the house.
, Slight arrangements of tho stomach
) slight catarrhal attacks of the liver, the

II people were born right and after
wards lived right, there would be no
use for medicine. Every doctor knows
this. So do other well-informed people.
One thing more. When a person lives
wrongly, or acquires bodily weakness by
heredity, medicine can do only very
little, Medicine cannot cure him. Only
eharlatans claim that medicines will
cure disease. Medicines may palliate
symptoms. Medicines may urge the
powers of Nature toresist disease. Med
;cines sometimes arouse the efforts of the
human body to right itself against de-
engagements. This is the most that med
icine can do.
A man accidentally puts his finger In
the fire. Instinctively he vets bis
finger in his mouth, then blows on 1t
for the cooling effect. This is no cure.
He knows it very we'll. 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
q 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 Peruna will stimulate the stomach
to perform its function properly. Peru
ma will increase the flow of digestive
fluids, without which digestion cannot
be carried on at all. It will increase the
relish of food, the appetite.
It is admitted that all this can be
accomplished by right living, but there
are so many people who either will mo-
or do not know how to eat correctly tina
8 tremendous amount of good can bt
done by the wise use of Peruna.
A stomach that has been frequently
| abused performs the function of diges
ton very lazily. Such stomach allow:
the food to remain undigested for som'
time after it is swallowed. This Lead
to fermentation of the food. Sour ston
ach is the result. This goes on weel
after week, until the blood is poisoned
with the products of fermentation. Thi
condition is very apt to produce rheum
atism.
tits not claimed that Peruna will cur
rheumatism. Nothing will cure rheum
atism but correct living. But it i
claimed that Peruna will assist badl,
abused stomach to perform its work.
