This Medicine Recommended by a Doctor

When a doctor uses a medicine him
self besides prescribing it to his patients,
he must know that it has merit.
This is what DR.. j. H. Wagner a prom
inent physician of Skate, Kentucky, has
to say about Dr. Hartman's well-known
remedy, PE-RU-NA: 81 have used Pc
RU-NA myself for catarrh and have
given it to others for catarrh, blOating
after eating and other ailments. 1t has
proved success in all cases with old
and young men and women. All speak
we'll Of PE-RU-NA. 1t is the best of all
tonics."
DR.. Wagner, out of the fullness Of his
own personal experience, for the good of
all sick and suffering, recommends q
medicine which he knows to be good
You may be sure a doctor would not en-
danger his professional reputation by
endorsing PE-RU~NA unless satisfied be-
yond doubt of its value.
Whether your trouble be cough or a
cold or a more subtle catarrhal effection
of the stomach, bowels or other organs,
give PE-RU-NA a trial. The immediate
improvement which you will see viii sat-
'E-RU-NA iswhat you need.

That the Rev. r. Edward Kirbye
did not resign the pastorate of the
Plymouth Congregation church in
Des Moines for the sole reason he
wanted to help clean Iowa's ''polit-
ical house" but quit because of the
strong opposition to him in his con-
gregation, is brought out by a Des
Moines newspaper. The paper also
shows that Kirbye drew down 5000
a month for directing the collection
of funds for the starving Armenians.
The paper says in part
The Rev. j. Edward Kirbye a
former pastor of Plymouth Congre-
gational church, who has set out to
reform the leadership of the repub-
llcan party in Iowa following his
resignation from the church several
days ago, resigned that pastorate af-
ter an Increase in salary Of $500 a
year was rescinded in a stormy
church board meeting. At this
meeting it was Charged that he had
accepted comfortably large salary
as state manager of the Jewish and
Armenian relief drives, according to
statements by members of the con-
gregation. Records of the relief
drives in question show that during
much of the time he was state man
ager of the campaign designed to
give relief to the starving and sick
in out of the way corners of Europe
DR.. Kirbye was being paid a salary
OF 5000 month, or at the rate of

NO PROOF FROM COX

Governor Cox Tuesday made a
tender, by proxy, of his evidence"
of a 100000 republican corrup-
ton fund being collected to pur-
chase ian underhold on the presi-
dency."
His emissary before the senate
subcommittee investigating cam"
paign contributions was Judge Ed
mund H. Moore, his pre-convention
manager.
Summed up, the Cox evidence"
consisted, according to Mr.. Moore's
admission of "leads," the explora-
ton of which might or might not
substantiate the democratic nomi-
nee's charge of growing republic
can slush fund.
Certain witnesses subpoenaed be-
fore the committee at the suggestion
of Mr.. Moore, and through him of
Governor Cox, testified, but failed, t.
supply even tinge of proof.
Early in his examination. Mr..
Moore was obliged to admit that he
had been mistaken in certain state-
ments he made on Dhis arrival in
Chicago last, week, and followed II
with an apology to Frederic w. Up
ham, treasurer of the republican ma.
tional committee.
Republican members of the inves-
tigating body frequently clashed
with Mr.. Moore, both at the morn
ing and afternoon sessions.
A sample of one Of the leads" Of
fered by the Cox-Moore testimony
was disclosed in the examination of
A. B. Paxton of Wheeling, w. Va,
who was appointed chairman Of the
republican ways and means COM
mittee of Ohio county, West Va.
1t was at the suggestion of Mr..
Moore that Mr.. Paxton was required
to appear.
Mr.. Paxton admitted he had dis
cussed with other republicans the
raising of fund OF $4,000 or ST.
900" in his county, which has a pop
ulation Of approximately 100000.
An excerpt from the testimony:
Senator Kenyon-And the infor-
nation you bring US is that in that
county of 100000 population you
have raised $4,205 A.-Yes.
Q-And somebody else raised
81, 900 or $4,000 Ayes, sir.
Q-That is all the information
you can bring us after coming from
Wheeling, W. Va? A-That Is all.
Candidly, think it is rank injus-
tice to bring me here.
Senator Kenyon think it was,
too.
Senator Reed don't think it
was. think 1t is the business OF
this committee to find out, and II
we cannot find out by wholesale, we
will find out by retail. fr

BRYAN IN THE DARK

William j. Bryan is in Washing
ton for his first visit since the ma
tional conventions. He indicated
that he was going to be far more in
terested during the presidential
campaign in strengthening tho
cause of prohibition than in fighting
for the election of any candidate.
Mr.. Bryan refused to talk of the
contest for the presidency adding,
however, that he saw no ineonsist-
ency in his attitude.
II have seen prominent demo-
crat refuse to support a democratic
candidate for the presidencY and
actually become president himself -
said Mr.. Bryan. 81 also have seen
republican ex-president select a
democratic president and remain not
only member OF the republican
party, but very prominent mem

MORE NEW CERTIFICATES

Notwithstanding a continuing de-
6cit in government financial opera
tions, Secretary Houston, in an
nouncing a new offering of certifi-
Gates of~indebtedness, says that the
beginning of the new year will see a
reduction in the nations gross pub
lie debt.
The offering of certificates com.
prises two issues and will total
about $500, 100000. Both issues
will be dated September Is, one ma
turing in six months and bearing
5 "a percent interest and the other
maturing in one year and bearing
6 percent interest.
The proceeds obtained from the
sale of these two issues, Mr.. Hous-
ton said, will partially offset matur-
ing certificates aggregating aboul
100000 which must be paid
before November. The remainder
of the maturing certificates will be
met from funds received through
the payment OF income and profit
taxes due September 18th.

action to the system, he pointed out.
Proper food and proper msstiration
thereof would do away with much
dental trouble, DR.. Leonard said.
'The trouble IL too many of us
continue to live on milk and nush,
oven after the weaving period We
need food which requires mastica-
ton to keep the teeth in good condi-
tier and avoid pyorrhea.
He deplored the wholesale extrac'
ton of teeth advised in many
cases.
1.-THE patients are frequently neu-
rot:cs who have nothing the matter
with their teeth and are not benefit
led by the extraction,v he said.
d.. Newell Jones of ON aha spoke
on urinary infections in early life.
There is no condition in infancy
and early life so frequently ove,'

fever for which there seems to' be
no apparent cause, it should imme-
diately have. a microscopic examina-

ARKANSAS DIAMONDS

Down in picturesque Arkansas, in
the county of Pike, may lie hidden
the greatest single wealth in all tht
world. There great beds of a GER
tain kind of deposits may contain
untold numbers of precious stones
diamonds. At least thinks a
syndicate that is Investigating.
And this recalls that science says
that over three hundred thousand
years ago, during the period when
the earth's crust was warm and pill
able, great subterranean upheaval
sent molten matter upward through
the strata OF rock and soil that lie
in what is now the south central por-
tion Of the United States, the fire to
be later drowned by floods of water,
or the sea. This, claim modern,
biologists, had the effect OF contract
ing the matter of the upheaval and
squeezing portion of the pure car
bon, by the great pressure exercised
into diamonds, which is the smallest
and purest form carbon can take.
An that is the way diamonds, 1t is
claimed, If they really exist, came to
Arkansas.
1t was fifteen years ago trat John
Huddleston, an Arkansas farmer,
picked up a pebble on his land,
which was found to be a diamond in
the rough. Since then diamond ex-
perts Of England and America have
examined the location of the fine
and other pebbles from there, but
the pebbles have not been the real
article. Now syndicate has
charge of the land and is making
