Wonderful Praise Accorded
Peruna the Household Remedy

Mrs. Maria Goertz, Orienta, Okla
homa, writes:l
"My husband, children and myself
have used your medicines, and We al
ways keep them in the house in case Of
necessity. I was restored to health by
this medicine, and Dr.. Hartman's in
valuable advice and books. People ask
about me from different places, and are
surprised that can do all of my house,
work alone, and that was cured by the
doctor Of chronic catarrh. My husband
was cured of asthma, my daughter Of
earache and catarrh of the stomach, and
my son Of catarrh Of the throat. When
was sick weighed 100 pounds; now I
weigh 40.
81 have regained my health again, and
I cannot thank you enough for your
advice. May God give you long life
and bless your work."

This gives the American Refining

The American Refining Trust import

self would be of great benefit to this
country, but that he meant to show it
would not produce great injury.
The Senator Is at least to be COM
mended for his frankness as well as for
having compelled the admission, on the
floor of the Senate. that information
supplied by that wonderful Tariff board
of experts was absolutely misleading
and unreliable. Of more consequence
than this, however, is the confession
that reciprocity" will achieve no sub.
stantial direct advantage to the United
States. II such be the fact, and it does
not lower the cost of living apprecia-
bly,i is going to be exceedingly trouble
some to justify it at all. Canada is not
-solicitous for special proofs of
friendship on the part of the American
government. The two peoples have
been dwelling alongside each other in
unbroken peace, quiet and prosperity
for many years. Trade has grown
both ways and has been profitable. 1t
is proposed now to surrender 81 of our
customs duties for every 81 yielded by
Canada and to give her a free market
10 times the size of the market she
opens to us as an evidence of inter
national amity. And in addition, de-
spite the figures of Senator Stone and
protestations of others, it is pretty
generally believed that the American
farmer alone will be compelled to pay
the first cost of this reciprocity" If
this is not the expectation, why that
Farmers Free List which the Demo
cratic majority is trying to put
through?

LIKED THE FIGHTING APOSTLE.
Name of st. Peter Appealed to Heart
OF Soldier.

II Is well known that Elias Howe.
the inventor of the sewing machine,
not only enlisted as a common soldier
In the ranks of the Seventeenth Con-
necticut regiment, carried a musket,
and did full military duty during the
war, but at a certain juncture, when
national finances were at low ebb,
he paid soldiers out of his own pocket,
Relative to this incident, p. T. Barnum
used to tell this story:
while Mr.. Howe was counting out
the money referred to, stranger, who
was a clergyman, entered the tent and
said he had heard of Mr.. Howes lib.
crafty and had called TO ask him 10
contribute toward building a church
for his congregation.
Church, church, said Mr. Howe
without looking up from his bills he
was counting; building churches in
war times, when so much is needed to
save our country! What church is
IT.?
"'St Peters church. replied the
clergyman.
"'Oh, ST. Peters, said Mr. Howe;

DATE OF PENNSY
GAME ANNOUNCED
MICHIGAN GRlDlRoN CONTEST
REMAINS BIG ATTRACTION
ON PENNSYLVANlA'S
SCHEDULE.

Philadelphia, Pa. Jan. 23.--At an in
formal meeting of the University Of
Pennsylvania football committee the
date for the Penn Michigan game for
next fall was decided. After lengthy
conference Nov. Is was selected from a
list of dates submitted by both, and,
as pre- arranged last year, the game
will take place at Ann Arbor, Mich.
The announcement of the date is
said to be the direct elimination of the
failure to secure a game with either
Harvard or Princeton.
Had Penn been able to arrange a
game with either of these members of
the big Four" it is likely that the
date of the Michigan game would have
been moved on the Red and Blue
schedule.
Should Penn arrange a contest with
either the Crimson or the Tigers next
fall it is likely that Michigan will be
moved up about two weeks on the
schedule to take the place of either the
Indians or Penn state. as neither game,
especially that with State, has proved
the drawing card it should be for the
past three years.
Michigans exhibition of football
against Penn for the last two years on
Franklin field has been of such high
class that the general opinion prevails
among the student body that the VOL
verines will still remain on the Penn
schedule, even after games are ar
ranged i'm the big Four"

A number of the members of the
Calumet ski club secured the district
Saturday and Sunday to find a suita-
BILE hill closer to Calumet than the one
now i'm use at the Old Colony loca-
ton, for the purpose of pulling off a
ski tournament open to the entire

The members were successful in
their quest, although one of the officers
stated this morning that il would not

new site until arrangements had beel
completed to acquire it for skiing pur-
poses.
A special committee has been
named to interview the owners of the
hill, and a meeting is to be called for
some evening this week when a report
will be made to the club as a whole.
The hill that has been located is said
to be one of the very best for the pur-
pose in the district. and il is believed
il can be secured. If the negotiations
for the hill are successful, the MEM
bers Of the club will approach local
businessmen interested I'm the tourna-

SPORTING NEWS OF THE WORLD
ENORMOUS sum OF
MONEY Is HANDLED

Cincinnati, Jan. Secretary John
+. Bruces annual report at the meet
ing Of the National commission at the
Laughrey club last week brought out
the startling fact with regard to the
financial business transacted by the
supreme court Of baseball during the
past year Mr.. Bruce showed that
the huge sum of sum of S666.297 had
passed through his hands during the
twelve months. This includes the
amounts received for drafted players
and the receipts of the world series
which was handled by the commission.
After giving the detailed report Of the
handling of all this money Mr.. Bruce
pointed out that the entire expenses Of
the commission for the year had been
only $4,000.
This includes the salary of Chairman
Hermann, which is $4,000, and that
of the secretary. which is $4,000. For
this comparatively insignificant
amount quarters Of a million
dollars has been received and distrib-
uted. What other institution would
accept the responsibility for doing
such an enormous business for such
small return? 1t cost the baseball
public less than per cent to do bus
mess through the commission. This
should be born in mind when the an
nual narrow minded howl goes up
about the commission receiving 10 per
cent of the receipts Of the worlds SER
les. Some athletes, more noted for
athletic skill than for breadth of mind
or fairness or spirit, always weigh in
with a pitiful kick because a small
proportion of the receipts is turned
over to the commission of that body.
Such players have no conception of
what the commission does for base
ball. If il were not for the prestige Civ
en- to the series by the commission In
the past six years the players would
receive only one-half or less Of what
they got under the present excellent
system. In the last series the entire
expenses of the commission, including
all output for the four members. was
only $1,000. or less than one half
what each player on the winning team
received from the series. This was
small sum 10 pay for the guarantee Of
honesty which the commission furnish
CS.
