A TONIC LAXATIVE
Pe-ru-na, an Up-to-Date Family Medicine That
Should Be In Every Home

sease has really gained a foothold in the
system, a person was to take a dose or two
of a good tonic laxative the great major
ity of cases of sickness would be pre-
vented.
Peruna is q remedy that should be kept
In the house. Its virtue as a preventive
to disease - the thing 1 wish chiefly to
emphasize.
A slight condition Of constipation may
lead to serious sluggishness of the bowels,
biliousness, re-absorption of poisonous ma
terial and finally sickness. Or apathy OF
the stomach in which the food Is not rel.
ished, may gradually lead to atomic dyspep-
STA or to the acquisition of some acute dis
ease. For either one Of these conditions
. few doses of the tonic laxative Peruna
would set matters right. This is why the
remedy should always be kept handy by.
When once tho value Of Peruna a. .
household remedy is understood no home
would be without it. Cathartics, pills and
powders would be discarded. Irritating
tonics would be no longer taken. Alco-
holic drinks would have NJ place. With .
few doses of Peruna q vigorous appetite is
produced and If there be any sluggishness
of the bowels their function il gradually
restored.
Most laxatives are weakening in their
effect. A tonic laxative guards against
this weakening effect. Until right living
has become 30 thoroughly established that
all medicines are s%uperhuous, Peruna will
be NEEDED. It il exactly the remedy that
meets numerous necessities of the house
hold. Sold at all drug stores.
Mr.. John B. Perkins, % Whiting ST.,
Plymouth, Mass, writes: II think pc
runa is a number one medicine. I was
troubled with catarrh and bowel com
plant. I tried several doctors, but could
only find temporary relief. I took Peruna
and am glad to say that it cured my ca
tarrh and corrected my bowels"

COFFEE THRESHED HER.
IS Long Years.

For over fifteen years." writes q
patient, hopeful little Ills. woman,
while a coffee drfnker, I suffered from
Spinal Irritation and Nervous trouble.
I was treated by good physicians, but
did not get much relief.
II never suspected that coffee might
be aggravating by condition. (Tea is
Just as injurious, because 1t contains
caffeine, the same drug found in cot
fee.) / was down-hearted and dis
%couraged, but prayed daily that l
might find something to help me.
Several years ago, while at .
friends house I drank . cup Of Post
um and though I had never tasted
anything more delicious.
From that time on I used Postum
instead of coffee and soon began to
improve in health, 50 that now / can
walk half q dozen blocks or more with
ease, and do many other things that
never thought l would be able to do
again in this world.
MY appetite is good, I sleep well
and find life Ia worth living. A lady
Of my acquaintance said she did not
like Postum, 1t was 30 weak and taste
less.
II explained to her the difference
when it is made right-boiled accord
ing to directions. She was glad to
know this because coffee did not agree
with her. Now her folks say they
expect to use Postum the rest Of their
lives" Name given upon request.

Pierre.-Prof. R. f. Kerr, represent

been digging into the vote on different
constitutional amendments and refer
red laws which have been submitted
to the people, to attempt to find just
how they take to the question Of d.

the beginning of statehood amend

tons, especially in. regard to prohibit

the salary Of the attorney general,
each of which have been submitted
three times, as has equal suffrage,
which reduce the number of different
subjects which have been voted upon.
Out of all the matters submitted II

have been turned down later when
resubmitted, and IL have been reject

been referred, and out of this eleven,
five went down in the mote no." cam

were started on their way through
the provisions of the initiative, only
one of which was accepted by the peo-
pie, being that of the new primary
elections law at the last election. Out
of the eleven referred laws, six have
been sustained by votes of the people,

Pierre.-For the first time one body

PALESTINE AND THE TURKS

The name Palestine, first used to
designate the territory of the Philis-
tines, was, after the Roman period,
gradually extended to the whole south
ern portion of Syria. 1t applies to the
country stretching from the Lebanon
and Anti-Lebanon to the Sinaitic De-
sert, and from the Mediterranean to
the Arabian Desert.
Jerusalem is naturally the most i'm
portant place in the Holy Land, the
centre of all it's multiplex religious
life. There are large number of
sects in the city which is under Turk
ish control, the Turks using their
authority with most malignant rule.
The Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem, the
Most Reverend Philip Camassei, has
jurisdiction over all Latins of Pales-
tine, extending to Egypt on the
south, the Latin Delegacy of Syria on
the north and including Cyprus. He
is appointed by the Roman Curia, and
is personally exempt from the Turk
ish authorities (still nominally under
the protectorate of F'rance).
The patriarchal church is in theory
the Holy Sepulchre. But since Cath
olics have only alternative rights
there with the Orthodox and Armen-
ians, Foscolo built a pro-Cathedral
near the Jaffa Gate, the Patriarch's
house and a seminary adjoining. But
the Patriarch celebrates the functions
of Holy Week and others at the Holy
Sepulchre according to the rights con-
coded to Catholics.
The Franciscans have three houses
in Jerusalem. Other Latin properties
in Jerusalem, according to the Catho-
lie Encyclopedia are: College of st.
Ann for Melkite clergy governed since
1873 by Cardinal Lavigeries White
Fathers; the Dominican College and
Biblical School; the great French
Hospice, Notre Dame de France, di-
rected by the Augustinians of the
Assumption; the Benedictine monas-
terry with a seminary for Syrian IN
iates on the Mount of Olives; the new
German Benedictine monastery on
Mount Sion, given by the German
Emperor in 1906; the German and
Austrian hospices, the French Passion
lists and Lazarists, the italian Sales
ians, and French Peres de Sion and
Christian Brothers. There are con-
vents of the French Carmelite nuns
Con the Mount of Olives), Poor Clares,
Franciscans, Danes de Sion, Sisters
of st. Vincent de Paul, Benedictine
nuns, Sisters of the Rosary, of st.
Joseph, and of Marie Reparatrice.
OF all these Latin institutions the
older colonies (the Franciscans) have
on the whole an Italian character, by
far the greater number are French,
but the Germans are now getting con-
siderable influence. AS throughout
the Turkish empire, French is the
European language most spoken at
Jerusalem.
English, German and American
Protestant churches of all sects have
a great number Of establishments,
churches, hospitals and hospices in
Jerusalem. The Anglicans have a
bishopric in Jerusalem.

FIRST MISSION BUILDING
IN SPOKANE TO BE PRESERVED
BY JESUITS-EoUNDATIoN OF
GONZAGA UNIVERSITY.

The Jesuit Fathers at Gonzaga Uni
versity, Spokane, Washington, are
fostering movement to preserve the
first Catholic mission erected in Spo-
kane, which also was the first frame
building in the city, and out of which
grew the magnificent Catholic Univer-
sity of GonZaga. They plan to re-
move the little one-room building to
the campus of the university, between
the university buildings and the beau
tiful new St Aloysius Church.
Standing in small court in the
downtown section of Spokane, back
of row of brick buildings at Trent
Avenue and Bernard Street, surround
ed by tumbledown shacks, its origin
long since forgotten by all save one
or two pioneer priests at the univer-
sity, the building now serves as a
store room for odds and ends. The
building consists of one small room
Is by Is feet, and was built in 1866
from the first boards sawed in that
section.
It was erected as mission for
the priests and Indians, and stood on
the hill north of Spokane, where it
was used for this purpose for some
time. Later it was moved to the
corner of what is now Bernard Street
and Trent Avenue, where it was
named the st. Ignatius School, and
where one of the priests conducted
classes for the Indians. From this
small beginning the present Gonzaga
University has grown. The identity
of the building was discovered by
Rev. George Weibe1, of Gonzaga Uni
versity, who has spent much time in
preserving the history of the Church
in that section.
An effort will be made to have the
building in place by October, when
it is planned to have golden jubilee
at the college in commemoration of
the establishment of the Catholic
faith in Spokane. Plans for this jubi-
lee are going forward. One of the i'm
portant ceremonies will be held in
connection with the dedication of the
little mission.
