or Gen. Miguel Iglesas. He lived on
an estate of 2400 square miles, which
mad been in his family since 1874 or
within forty years of the date of the
conquest of Peru by Pizarro There
are 10000 head of cattle on this es-
tate and population of about 1000
persons, over whom Iglesias ruled as
absolute lord. He made and enforced
their laws, provided for their educa-
ton and moral welfare and never had
rebellion. Drunkenness on any day
but Easter Sunday was punishable by
fine of $5. a wife beater was pun-
ished by 50 fine. The fines collect
ed largely supported the schools. 1t
was the life of the feudal lords of the
Middle Ages brought down into the
twentieth century.
Gen. Iglesias took a prominent mart
in the government of the country,

with Chile, He was secretary of the
treasury and of war when hostilities

president of the country, but his rule
was disputed by Gen. Andres Caceres.

to continue the war. A civil conflict

He retired for time to Europe, but
later returned to his estate which
he rarely left thereafter even to at
tend the sessions of congress, of which
he was member. He was 81 years

Grandma Sanderson is wonderful
woman. She is Ill as good health to-
day as ever in her life, although she
is over one hundred years old.
In a letter to the Peruna Drug Mfg.
Co., she gives the highest credit TO Fe-
runa for her excellent health and ex.
treme old age. Read what she says.
Surely the evidence presented By
such cases as these ought not only tc
dispel prejudice against Peruna, but
inspire confidence III it.

resulted in Ia grippe. Owing to the
severity of the disease, and my ex.

Peruna is an ideal tonic for ola

remedies that has been known to the

Peruna operates as q tonic by cleans.

has become SO extensively known as g.
