"The grippe left me in nervous, weak

THE MOTHERS PROBLEM
or Rai,ine Strong, Healthy Girls.

A serious problem which presents IL
self to every mother with girls to raise,
In these days. The eEigencies OF schooi
life. the hurry and routine OF everyday
drties the artificial environment OF
modern civilization, make 1t more
difficult to raise strong, healthy girls
than ever in the history of the world.
Bows raise themselves. Give them
room, give them liberty, and they wiz
grow up healthy at least, without much
Worrying. But the girls present SER
ious problem.
How many mothers there are who are
worrying about their daughters. Ner-
vous, puny girls, with poor, caprlclous
appetites, bloodless, listless, constant
anxiety to the mother. How shall she
solve her problem? Towhom shall she
turn for help? Each case is more or
less study by itself, and cannot Dc
solved by any general rule.
This is the way one mother solved the
problem. Mrs. Schopfer, 1920 Prescott
Ave-. st. Louis, Mo-, in letter to DR..
Hartman, says: "My daughter Allce,
four wears of age. was puny, sickiy,
ailine child since she was born. l was
always doctoring her. When we COM
menced to use Peruna she grew strong
and we'll"
Another mother, Mrs. Martha Moss,
REDS, Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin,
saws: "Our little eight-year-old girl
had n bad cough, and was in general
rundown condition" She had several
doctors, who could give the child no re-
lief and the mother no encouragement.
Finally, she got bottle of Peruna
and commenced giving it to the child,
and it proved to be just what she
needed. When she commenced taking
Peruna the child had to be carried.
Now the mother says She is playing
around all the time.
Her closing words were: "You have
done a great deal for her. She Is the
only girl we have, and it meant lots to
US to have her cured"
These are samples or many letterS
which DR.. Hartman is receiving, com
ing straight from the hearts Of loving
mothers. While the different schools
of medicine are pickering and differing
as to theories and remedies, Peruns
goes Enthusiastically on giving permanent
relief. After oil, IL is cures that the
people want. Theories are OF little
account.

IN the Senate last week during a dis
cussion of the tariff bill, Senator Cunmins,
OF Iowa, neatly took the hide off OF Sen
ator Scott of West Virginia. Senator
Cummins was speaking against those
great corporations that have been using
the Republican protective policy simply
as means of robbing the people, and de-
clared himself in favor of free lumber and
lower duties on steel and iron. He stated
he had had special opportunities for I'M
Outstanding the affairs of the American
Steel and Wire Company.
Mr.. Owen inquired how he had acquir-
ed such special information.
al was attorney for the company" re-
piled the lowan.
Mr.. Scott thereupon inquired whether
Senator Cummins had received his fee as
attorney in money or in stock.
"If had lived in West Virginia, re-
sponded Mr.. Cummins, land had been
surrounded with the influences prevalent
there, | fear would be ashamed to an
swer. But as Hive jim Iowa, where there
is an honest atmosphere, can reply that
my pay was in cash, and had nothing
whatever to do with the capital stock is
sued by that company"
The very atmosphere of West Virginia,
it appears, is tainted, and all the world
knows it. Isn't it about time for our State
TO wake up and rid itself of the politicians
whose sole idea of craftsmanship is the
passage of measures that will line their
pockets at the expense of other people -?

NOTES FROM NEARBY.

II is expected that the Williamspot
bridge will be opened for traffic about
june 10th.
Col. Charles E. Trail, a prominent resi-
dent of Frederick, Md, died last week,
aged "a years.
]. ]. Wysong has commenced the erec-
ton of large bank barn on his farm near
Charles Town.
The liquor saloon of John P. Creqhe in
Martinsburg was burned out Monday
night, causing loss of 81, 200.
The town council OF Charles Town has
taken up the work of sidewalk improve
ment, and at IFS last meeting many new
pavements were ordered made.
Rev. Stephen M. Newman, d. D., re-
Gently president of Eastern College, at
Front Royal, Va, has been chosen as
president OF Kee-Mar College at Hagers-
town.
Henry Strock, a farmer living near
Chewsville, Washington county, Md,
committed suicide Tuesday by hanging
himself. He was 40 years old, and leaves
wife and three young children.
Catherine Gehr, the four-year-old
daughter of Harvey Gehr, saw her father
light lamp and later tried to initiate,
when she set herself afire and was burned
to death at her home near Hagerstown.
Martinsburg held its first election under
the new charter on Monday, but it was a
fizzle. Only three precincts out of the
Tour were opened for votes, and in the
whole city but log votes were cast. Po-
litical differences and doubts as to the le-
gality OF the election caused the farce.
Angle Steck, eight year-old son of L.
K. Steck, was run over in Martinsburg
last Thursday night by an automobile
driven by Claude N. Stewart, and was so
badly hurt that he died Monday night.
His skull was fractured and he sustained
other injuries. Mr.. Stewart says that the
accident was unavoidable, as the child ran
into the street right in front of the ma
chine.
At Martinsburg on Tuesday in the
United States Court Judge Dayton handed
down his decision in the case Of the Bal
timore and Ohio Railroad Company against
the Berkeley Springs and Potomac Rail-
road Company in which the court entered
judgment in favor of the Baltimore and
Ohio for $l29, 1853, with costs and interest,
aggregating more than $4,000. Judge
Dayton also entered decree of sale for
the property of the Berkeley Springs and
Potomac Railroad Company unless the
judgment is paid within 30 days, and APP
pointed Attorney Stuart w. Walker special
commissioner to make the sale.
A tremendous swindle has just come TO
light in Washington City. John c. Davis
and Martin T. Davis, brothers, landed in
that place some time ago and organized
the Potomac Building and Loan ASsocia-
ton. BY promising high rate of inter-
est they got many persons to loan them
large sums Of money, and when the crash
came last week il was found that they had
gotten probably 100000 from persons in
Washington and neighboring towns.
Among the victims are Thomas and Duff
Turner, formerly of Martinsburg, the for
mer losing $2,400 and the latter $4 200.

Shepherdstown people are greatly in
cenSed at the outcome of the literary con-
test Saturday night there between repre-
sentatives OF Shepherd College and the
Eastern College Of Front Royal. Three
judges decided the contest, two of them
voting to award the honorS to the Front
Royal students. All the trouble seems to
have arisen from an attempt on the part
of the audience to umpire the contest,
forgetting that the duly selected judges
had that function to perform.-ChafleS
Town Advocate
The above item shows how ridiculous
newspaper may make itself by comment
ing upon matter about which it knows
nothing. The people were not seeking
to umpire the contest. They simply were
indignant over very palpable piece Of
favoritism, and that they had proper
ground for protest is amply shown by a
study of the score cards of two OF the
judges. These cards may be seen by
any one interested.

Temperance News.

The enthusiasm OF the Hagerstown
Mail in its support of the whiskey bust
ness leads il to some brilliant conclusions.
1t assumes that the fact that Shepherds
town has voted dry" has led to the use
OF cocaine and other drugs, when, as mat
ter OF fact, the saloons will not be closed
until the first of July. The truth is, whis-
key increases the use OF drugs and other
vices, and Hagerstown is living illuStra-
ton of this assertion, if we are to judge
from the trouble they have there with
DRINKS and dope fiends.
The recently elected city council of
Charleston gave the liquor people an aw-
full jolt Tuesday night, when by vote OF
q to II it was decided not to issue any
saloon license for the ensuing year. The
advocates OF license scarcely knew what
TO do and horror spread through the city.
Finally the council took recess until to-
night, when it is hoped to upset the vote.
We hope that Charleston will set good
example for the balance OF the State
The annual convention of the National
Cigar Leaf Tobacco Association was held
in Baltimore this week, with some fifty
delegates in attendance. The delegates,
we are informed, expressed the opinion
that the cigar business had been injured
by the temperance wave that is sweeping
the country, and thereupon decided that
they would unite with the saloon keepers
in fighting local option. Now, isn't this
high plans for any passably decent body
of men to occupy
E. E. Haley, who defiantly continued
to sell liquor illegally in Danville, Va, af
ter the town had gone dry, has been
soaked good by the courts. He was fined
500 and costs, sentenced to 60 days in
Jail, and required to give bond for good
behavior for six months. He fought hard
against going TO jail, but the Supreme
Court now says that he must serve his
full sentence.
The City of Parkersburg has increased
its liquor license tax to $1,000, which,
with the same amount charged by the
State, makes total of $1,000 each year.
The liquor men are kicking strenuously,
and ii is said that half of the sixty saloons
will have to close. Well, thirty saloons
in Parkersburg will be plenty-too many,
indeed.
The Middle Conference of the Lutheran
Synod of Maryland last week passed res
olutionS pledging the support of the min
listers to the temperance work of the
Anti-Saloon League.
License has been granted to fifteen Ii
quor saloons in Martnsburg and three
wholesale beer houses. The license fee
in Martinsburg is $3.50, in addition to the
81 900 State license.
The Point Pleasant Gazette, which is
edited by woman, is an open and avowed
advocate of liquor saloons. What do you
think of woman that takes such a
stand?

A FEW days ago delegation repre-
senting the "Free Hide League OF West
Virginia" waited upon Senator Scott in
Washington and presented to him set
of resolutions declaring that his conten-
ton for tariff on hides is detriment to
this State and further stating that the tan
ming interests demand free hides. AS
might be expected, the delegates got cold
comfort from our stand-pat Senator. In
deed, it is said that he severely Snubbed
them and told them that the tanners were
acting from selfish motives in asking for
free hides.
Selfish motives Isn't this refreshing
from Senator Scott? Wonder what he
calls his motive in roaring around for
a high tariff on glassware, which he man.
ufactures And what is Senator Elkins'S
motive in contending so fierceIy for a
tariff on lumber and coal, the commodities
in which he is so largely interested?

THE suggestion OF Governor Glasscock
that last Sunday be observed as mothers
day" in West Virginia was observed in
every section of the State, except, posi-
bly,, in Greenbrier county, where, if the
cranky ideas of one q. S. La Tourette
were followed, there was no recognition.
The gentleman named, whoever he may
be, published letter in the Greenbrier
Independent in which he ridiculed this re-
quest of the Governor and made cantank-
erous objection to observing mothers day.
We wish to record our sincere approval
of Governor Glasscock's proclamation.
1t shows that he is man of sentiment
and that he has a love and respect for
womanhood. No one was made the
worse last Sunday by thinking of mother

WE learn from partisan newspapers
that Senator Elkins and Senator Scott are
making strenuous efforts to protect the
interests of West Virginia in the new tar
if bill. This means that Senator Elkins
is staying awake at night to keep tariff
on coal and lumber, in which he deals,
and that Senator Scott will not sleep for
fear the duty will be reduced on glassware,
which he manufactures.
We think our Senators would be doing
greater public service if they would try
TO protect the masses of the people from
the exactions and extortions of the trusts,
even if they should be pinched trifle.

the Senate on Monday voted for high

that controls this vast industry clear
