PLAN MONUMENT AT TOP
OF MOUNT SPOKANE.
VIII Build An Inn on Mountain TOP
for Accommodation of
Spokane People.

SPOKANE, Wash, Sept. 28.-Gov-
ernor Marion Il. Hay of Washington
suggests the building of beautiful
inn on the summit of Mount Spokane.
the loftiest peak In the entire Spokane
country. This was the mountain IN
the recent christening of which the
governor played an important part.
From its top a view can be had in all
directions as fay as the eye can pene-
trate, and Governor Hay believes
thousands of visitors TO the west
would be impressed greatly by a few
days stay on the summit. An auto.
mobile road already has been con-
structed part way up the mountains
SLOPE and hundreds of people have
gained the eminence this summer.
This winter open house" will be
maintained on the mountain by
Francis II. Cook. There he will en-
taC tain such hardy folks as are able
to enjoy the cold months at such an
altitude. For the present, his guests
are expected to be none but those Of
the pioneer type, for the open house"
will be in primitive, but durable,
log cabin.

Peruna as you know, is stimulant

II was chronic bronchitis. Al any rate
her condition was quite serious. She

doctors she consulted, although she
took their medicines faithfully fer

She began taking II. At once she i'm

she apparently was well. We did oil

Peruna, but she persisted. II finally
came out in the magazines that Pc

The Katy railway has sent the fol-

agents in oklahoma:
CAS- you know, the number of head
OF live stock on farms in Oklahoma
has been very greatly reduced the past
two years, because of the fact that the
farmers sold the mothers last year
and year before last on account or
shortage of feed, and now they have
a large amount of feed in the state,
the farmers have no mothers from
which to produce cattle and hogs.
Many of the farmers will, no doubt, Dc

do so if they can quickly ascertain

Alcohol I'm Pe-rl-Ela--
Am Unjust Criticism

Five per cent would be ono-twon-

less than an ounce Of alcohol before

YES"
"But you objected TO your mothers
taking alcohol IN Peruna, and yet
she. was taking far less alcohol than
you were AZ ! understand it, the
dose Of Pauna Is one tablespoonful,
Supposing II TO be twenty per cent az
oohol there would be In each dos
one-ffth OF tablespoonful Of alcohol,
which would be about half teaspoon
tul while you were taking al least
four teaspoonfuls OF alcohol In your
bottle of beer. And yet you objected
10 your mothers taking Peruna on the
ground that the Peruna contains al
cohol In my opinion II was the al
cohol that cured both Of you. Your
mother evidently was cured OF a very
serious ailment, Peruna contains al
cohol. II was undoubtedly the alcohol
that cured her or at least helped 20.
The other ingredients OF Peruna

We'll" / replied, you have been

lowed your mind to become prejudlced
against Peruna on account of It's con-
tanning alcohol. Without stopping to
/ look into the matter at all you have
assumed that there Is something ter,
| ribly disreputable about remedies con.
/ tanning alcohol. The fact Is, however
/ that most all fluid medicines, whether
prescribed by Il doctor or put up as a
patent medicine, contain certain
amount of alcohol. 1t was alcoho
that cured your mother. II was al
cohol that cured you. In my opinion
alcohol In some form or other is maxi
! ing more cures that all other drugs
combined. This is not saying, how.
ever, that Peruna contains only alco-
hol, for II does contain excellent rem.
edies besides alcohol. But ] do con.
tend that the alcohol in Peruna is moi
