substantially as follows: Julia
Chase was said to be fencing a
public road across which John R.
Bowen, proprietor of sawmill. was
Eauling the output of his mill The
fence stopped him from bringing his
lumber out, and he came to town to
get advice from the sheriff and
county attorney upon the matter.
They told him to cut the fence
and &C on with his work, as the
thoroughtare in question was
public road. He put their sugges-
tion into execution. and was hailed
by the lady and told to desist i'm

charged that she went to her house,
procured a gun, and returned to
forcibly prevent Bowan's opening

AMERICANS WIN FIRST GAME
outrIde and outpIay English Polo
ChalIenqers.

Meadowbrook Club. l.. J., June H.
Outriding and outplaying the English
polo ~challengers the American cup
defending team won the opening game
of the sixth international match by a
score OF SO goals to 3. A better idea
of the actual difference in the playing
ability OF the two teams is shown by
the gross score, which was Z to 3 in
favor OF the defending four.
Much to the surprise OF the specta-
tors and polo experts the English play
ers did not show the Wanted team
play which had been credited to them
before the game. Neither did their
ponies outclass the American mounts.
In fact the reverse was quite the case
and In almost every run down the field
the American players either held their
own or outrode their competitors in
the race for the bail.

Nearly everybody is obliged more CT

that do not make use of tonics and
laxatives.
The remedy Peruna is a laxative
tonic. 1t not only operates as q gentle
laxative, but also as q tonic.
The benefit derived from such a
remedy is a great deal more in the
prevention Of disease than in the cure.
After a person has really become sick,
either with an acute or chronic all

physician, or some one who can give

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

good tonic laxative the great majority
Of cases Of sickness would be pre-
vented.
Peruna is a remedy that should be
kept in the house. Its virtue as a
preventive to disease is 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 material and finally
sickness. Or apathy of the stomach
in which the food is not relished, may
gradually lead to atomic dyspepsia or
to the acquisition of some acute dis
ease. Fol either one of these condi-
lions a few doses of the onic laxative
Peruna would set matters right. This
is why the remedy should always be
kept handy by.
When once the value of Peruna as a
household remedy is understood mo
home would be without it. ~Cathartics,
pills and powders would be discarded.
Irritating tonics would be no longer
taken. Alcoholic drinks would have no
place. With a few doses of Perupa a
vigorous appetite is produced and il
there be any sluggishness OF She
bowels their function is gradually RE
stored.
Most laxatives are weakening in
their effect. A tonic laxative guards
against this weakening effect. Until
right living has become so thoroughly
established that all medicines are SUI
perfiuous, Peruna will be needed. 1t is
exactly the remedy hat meets numer-
u necessities of the household. Sold

~ talked OF, and every effort possible
has been made to prevent the quintu-
pie loan from being consummated. In
Shanghai the severest c~ensureais being
passed upon the president and the cab
met, and so reckless is the language
being used that the municipal authoFi-
ties In that port recently were COM
PEELED to take notice Of 1t and issue an
order threatening to arrest and try
any editor, publisher, reporter or print
er guilty of unrestrained expression OF
opinion.
Yuan Shih KaI regarded the outburst
with apparent Indifference for some
time, but Of late he has been moving
troops to strategic points and I'm other
ways has indicated that he is alive to
the probabilities If he does not show
his hand and indicate his intentions.
The opposition is coming almost sole.
ly from the Kuo Mintang, and, while It
seems that they have considerable
cause for complaint that republican
principles are not being carried out as
they should be, they have in a sense
spoiled their case by the unrestrained
ebullitions OF their publlcists In Shang-
hal.
Proceeding upon constitutional lines,
the Kuo Mintang may have compelled
a hearing Of their claims, but the att
tude adopted by the newspaper they
publish In English in Shanghai has
alienated most foreign sympathy and
has rendered II difficult for the leaders
to carry on the campaign they %inaugu-
rated. This newspaper has proved
fatal to the party.
Other newspapers published in Chi
nese have followed suit, and the result
has been the stirring of the people to
such an extent that a second revolu-
ton Is believed to be on the tapis. At
ali events the president is preparing
for one, and, I'm addition TO moving
troops. he has issued mandates which
are intended to indicate what his in
tentions are. On May 2 he issued two
In the first he describes how the
country has just passed through revo-
luton, how "many mere followers of
the righteous cause" took advantage OF
the name Of revolution "to extort and
inJure law abiding people" and how
"the constitutional spirit of the coun-
try has not yet soundly recovered"
He recalls how he has pardoned Of
tenders who have been guilty of con
spiracy, hoping they would repent of
their guilty conduct. and describes the
situation as dangerous to the highest
degree, the financial strength Of the
nation being dried up and the people
having practically very little to make
their lives worth living"
In the second mandate morality is
described as the foundation OF repub-
lican government and law the limit.
and from that the president goes on to
refer to the murder of Sung Chiaojen
and the signing of the loan. The for
mer he states offers no excuse to sus-
pect the premier. and. as for the latter,
It was competent for the governor to
sign the loan agreement. the late ma
