ways, undoubtedly the stomach would
right itself, the blood would rid itself Of
the poison, and everything would be
right. But as said before there are q
multitude Of people who will not or cam
not adopt right methods of living. To
such people Peruna is q boon. A dose

digestion, and all the train Of ills thaa

In other words, Peruna Is helpful q

Peruna does not cure, but 1t assists the
powers Of Nature to bring about cure.

This illustrates the effect of Peruna,
or any other good remedy upon the sys-

forth the powers of the human system
to meet the en-. roacbments OF disease,
and thus cuts short, IL not entirely ends,

No one should ever attempt to substi-
tute medicine in the place of right liv.

prove disaster. But an occasional uss
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 tha
world will get wise enough so that
through correct living no medicine al

AROUND NATcHEZ
AFTER THE LABOR AGENTS.

Jackson, Miss, Nov. 1.-THE farm
ers around Natchez are having great
deal Of trouble with labor agents, who
cross the river from Louisiana and en-
deavor to induce the negroes to leave
the farms of this state and go to Okla
homa and other places.
Farmers of that section, which is in
tested with boil weevil, have been TAX
ing care of the negroes who remained
with them after the exodus of about
two years ago, and all have had work
at good wages, but labor agents have
been operating in that section, as well
as the weevil section of South Missis-
sippi recently, with the result that
some of the labor has been enticed
away.
The Natche4 Chamber of Commerce
has taken the matter up, and will see
that all labor remaining is properly
cared for in future.

Two Noted Characters Reach st.

They Open Their Campaign.

st. Louis, Nov. 1.-two million
aire' tramps are James Eads Howe
and DR.. Benjamin Ridder Howe,
who is president of the Brotherhood
Welfare association, is known among
hoboes from coast to coast. During
the summer he has been collecting
the signatures of hundreds of persons
throughout Missouri to the petition
for work law which he hopes to
have submitted through the initiative.
DR.. Benjamin Ridder, who styles
himself the millionaire tramp" is
| favoring st. Louis with his first visit
in his worldwide campaign in the in
terest of the unemployed, which he
says is his life work. DR.. Ridder says
he was educated, in Copenhagen,
where he received degrees of D. D.,
LII. D.. and M. D. The wanderlust
seized him early in life and he aban-
doned the professions open to him to
become a wanderer.
He says he early became interested
in the unjust and unequal conditions
confronting the wording classes, and
in his public discussions of these
questions and his agitation of legis-
lation to better these conditions, he
has been incarcerated 602 times in
twelve years and served 80 sentences
| of varying lengths.
The conditions he found in the
penal institutions led him to inau-
gurate policy of educating the pub
lie to knowledge Of the evils with a
view to their amelioration, and in this,
he says, he has been highly success
| full.
In the twelve years of his rowing he
has visited 7,011 peanl institutions

ATHLETICS AND SCHOLARSHIP.

Much of the criticism which is lev
eIled at football, and other forms of
college athletics, takes the form OF
charges that students who attain pro-
ficiency in them do so at a sacrifice to
their scholarship. 1t is insisted that
the time which is necessary for the
preparation for such sports and the
playing of them is just so much time
taken away from studies with disas-
trous results to scholarship ratings.
1t is safe to say that an investiga-
ton of such charges in almost any of
the colleges and universities of the
country would result in their refuta-
ton. No doubt there are collegians
who devote considerable of their
energies to athletics who do not
stand we'll in their classes. But there
are just as many and more students
who do not take part in any kind of
athletic activity whose scholarship
ratings are just as low.
On the other hand the most cap
able men in the field of college sport,
the ones who make the varsity teams
and pull down the athletic prizes
stand high in their classes. A con-
crete substantiation of this statement
is to be found in a recent news dis
patch from Ithaca, N. Y 1t tells that
among the successful Cornell athletes,
the ones who have won their coveted
"C'' for athletic achievement, the
great majority of them have a better
average scholarship record than the
average non-athletic students. Some
figures on the subject were presented
and they are particularly interesting.
They concern the members of the
senior class who are to graduate this
June. And in considering them it
might be we'll to bear in mind that
there are representatives of each of
the four classes on all of college ath-
letic squads.
Among the Cornell seniors given to
athletics, seven of the oarsmen had
averages in their studies of between
10 and 80 per cent. Four had aver
ages between 80 and IS. With the
track athletes, seventeen averaged
between 70 and 80 and two stood
above so. In the football squad five
of the seniors averaged just below 70;
seven between 70 and so and two
were rated above so. Sixty per cent
is the passing mark at Cornell and
an average of 80 is considered very
high.
Similar conditions are to be found
undoubtedly in most of the other col
leges and universities in the country,
despite the statements of few bias
ed critics to the contrary.

HIGH FRICEs BLAMED AGAIN.

Henry Clews. the New York banker,
in his current weekly financial review,
looks upon the present course of this
country's foreign trade as one of the
most unsatisfactory features OF the
business situation in tine nation. He
b1ames the ''high prices for it and de-
clares what this country sorely needs
is a large increase in the volume of
agricultural productions. On this sub
ject Mr.. C1ews writes:
Exports continue abnormallv low,
leaving, owing to large imports, a
heavy foreign Indebtedness which
must be settled either by gold exports
or security shipments. AS Europe is
unwilling to absorb large quantities of
the latter. and as conditions are not
yet favorable to reduction of our for
eign Indebtedness it follows that our
position in this respect is not a strong
huenced by the approaching maturity
of many of the short term loans which
Europe took in 1906 and 1907. The
only cure for this difficulty in our in
ternational trade is lower prices for
commodities. 1t is the high prices of
merchandise which have been mainly
instrumental in bringing about these
abnormal conditions. Our exports of
cotton, breadstuffs and meats have
prices, the same influence having also
abnormally stimulated imports. Unless
the foreign markets come up to our
level in prices. which is not likely,
there can be no cure for this difficult
ty except that, as just said, of lower
prices. This again brings US to the

1910. Nothing short of this will re-
store our equilibrium and preserve
prosperity. The country is soIely in
need of larger supplies of everything
prices ought to prove an immediate
stimulus to agriculture, which now af
fords profits not seen in many years
The country is suffering from INSULT
cient production, and its salvation lies
in big crops for the coming season.
Short crops would now prove pecul-
iarly disastrous, not only checking
business activity, but creating a dan
gerous degree OF discomfort, which
would inevitably follow. We are now
paying the penalty, and a dear penal
ty it is. for the foolish efforts in many
directions to restrict production.
Trusts, unions and farmers have all
alike been preaching the gospel of re-
striction. What we most need Is pro-
duction in abundance in the next har-
vest"
