BALLlNGER ON THE STAND
Secretary of interior Vigorously De-
tends Hims elf.-Declares CLAWS
Is Liar.

WASHINGTON.-I deny
ing that he had been guilty OF any
wrong-doing, Richard A. Balllnger
made a bitter attack upon his critics
when a witness before the Ballinger-
Pinchot investigating committee, and
characterized many of the statements
of his principal accuser, L. R. Claws
as "willful and deliberate lies.'
Led on by his attorney, the Cabinet
officer answered one by one the IN
dictments of those who would de-
stroy him. He referred with apparent
pride to Theodore Roosevelt's oft-ex-
pressed high estimate of him, partlcu-
1arly the ex-President's statement
when he was commissioner of the
land office, that he had secured
s25, 900 man for $4,000"
Coal Land Action Defended.
He defended his conduct in connec-
ton with the Cunningham coal cases
and said emphatically that he would
take the same action now as he did
when at the head of the land Office,
if he had the same record before him.
Passing from the subject of Alaskan
coal lands, Ballinger gave a justltl-
cation of his attitude toward the re-
clamation service His most import.
ant denial was of the charge made by
Director Newell and Chief Engineer
Davis, that he misrepresented TO the
President that the reclamation ser:
vice had recommended the restoration
of the waterpower sites withdrawn by
Secretary Garfield.
By a vote on which Mr.. Madison,
the insurgent Republican on the COM
mittee, was the only member to de-
part from others of his party, the
committee again rejected Attorney
Brandeis' request that Attorney-Gen-
eral Wickersham should be required
to produce papers which the prose
cution'' contends would show that he
antedated his summary to the Presi-
dent of the CLAWS charges against
Ballinger.
Cummins Amendment Defeated.
BY the decisive vote of to 20,
the Administration Republicans de-
feated the Cummins substitute for the
Crawford Elkins traffic agreement
provision of the railroad bill The
vote is generally accepted as a test
of the strength of the contending
sides and it is believed it presages
the passage of the bill by safe ma
jority.
Immediately after the result was
announced Senator Cummins gave no
tice of another amendment intended
to accomplish the same purpose. He
had claimed for his amendment that
it would specifically require the ap-
prevail by the Interstate Commerce
Commission of all rates under the
traffic agreements, in advance of
their taking effect, but he says his
substitute covered all phases of the
question

Describes the Principal ingredients
of Pe-gu-na.
Are we claiming too much for Pc
runa when we claim it to be an effec-
tive remedy for chronic catarrh? Have
we abundant proof that Peruns is in
reality such cstarrh remedy? Let
US see what the United States Dispen-
satory says Of the principal ingred-
ientso Of Peruna.
Take, for instance, the ingredient
hydrastis canadensis, or golden seal
The United States Dispensatory says
of this herbal remedy, that it is large
ly employed In the treatment of de-
PRAYED mucous membranes, chronic
rhinitis nasal catarrh) }, atomic dyspep-
STA (catarrh of the stomach), chronic
intestinal catarrh, catarrhal jaundiee
(catarrh Of the liver, and in diseased
mucous membranes of the pelvic
organs. It is also recommended for
the treatment of various forms Of dis
eases peculiar to women.
Another ingredient of Peruna, cory
dalis formOsa, is classed in the United
States Dispensatory as tonic. Isused
as treatment for ehro, < cOnstitu-
tional diseases and serofula.
Cedron seeds is another ingredient
of Peruna, an excellent drug that has
been very largely overlooked by the
medical profession for the past fifty
years The seeds are to be found in
very few drug stores. The United
States Dispensatory says of the action
of cedron that it is used as a bitter
tonic and in the treatment of dysen-
terry, and in intermittent diseases as g
substitute for quinine.
These are not all of the medicinal
ingredients Peruna contains. Suffice
it to say that it is a compound OF
herbal remedies, each one Of which
has, from time to time, been recon-
mended by physicians of all schools,
for different catarrhal conditions.

pie say send to us for a free book Of
