Minnesota Realizes More Than Michi-

The state of Minnesota has realized
more from the sale of timber alone

A statement given out by Samuel

this state from it's timber sales alone
has derived a revenue of almost as
much as Wisconsin and Michigan to-

AN INCESSAN7 Cough.
Continued Dropping of Mucous
into my Throat.

a severe cough is always a grave
symptom. 1t may not indicate or
ganic disease of the lungs. Even
though the cough is a functional dis
turbance it is of sufficient gravity to
demand prompt attention.
The dropping of mucus from the
back part of the nose into the throat
indicates nasal catarrh. Sometimes
this goes ON a long time before the
patient pays any attention to ii. 1t
is stated on good authority that mu-
Gus dropping into the throat in this
way is apt to excite catarrh of the
stomach. At any rate, the condition
ought to be corrected as soon as pos
sble.
Mrs. Bourland. of Frankston, Texas.
found after using Peruua that not
only did the incessant cough disap-
pear. but the dropping of mucus into
the throat had also ceased. Read
what she says:
"For twenty-three years I was a
constant sufferer from chronic ca
tarrh I had q severe misery and
burning in the top of my head. There
was almost a continual dropping Of
mucus into my throat, which caused
frequent expectoration. My entire
system gradually became involved.
and my condition grew worse. / had
an incessant cough and frequent at
tacks of bilious collie, from which it
seemed / could not recover My

alarming attacks of hemorrhages

three days I was relieved of the bowel
arrangement. After using five bottles

him from scratching them with his finger

PUT BAN ON CHRISTMAS.
Pilgrim Fathers Could See No Good
In Holidays Observance.

IN F1ollcayS observance
Perhaps in no respect have modern
observances departed further from the
rigidity of the old blue laws than in
our attitude toward Christmas at the
present time. Its spirit is infectious
and animates even the most sluggish.
To measure the distance we have trav-
eled it is but necessary to place in con-
trast this extract from a law passed
by the general court of Massachusetts
in 1859:
For preventing disorder arising in
several places within this jurisdiction,
by reason of some still observing such
festivals as were superstitiously kept
in other countries to the general dis
honor of God and offense of others, it
Is therefore ordered by this court and
the authority thereof that whosoever
shall be found observing any such day
as Christmas or the like either by for
bearing of labor, feasting or by other
way upon any such accounts as afore,
said, every person so offending shall
pay for such offense 3 shillings as a
fine to the county"
Were that the penalty today the
county" would be in the enjoyment of
a swollen income, because everybody Is
guilty and is glad Of it.
