No matter how long you have
been sick or how much you have
suffered, you must not give up
hope. Mr.. John Wick, of Mono
monee Falls, Wisconsin, did not
and is well man today. In Sep4
TENDER, 1918, he wrote: "I have
been user of Pe-ru-na for near
" twenty years. I had catarrh of
the stomach for ten years. Moth
ing did me any good. I grew
worse until a friend advised me
10 try Pe-ru-na. While using the
first bottle, / felt I had found
the right medicine. I am entirely
cured. My weight was down to
lis pounds and now I weigh 1875
pounds. I have used very little
medicine for the last ten years"
The condition known as catarrh.
IL is not confined to the nose and
throat. It may be found wherever
there are mucous membranes and
Is responsible for a multitude OF
troubles. Coughs and colds are
catarrhal as well as stomach and
bowel disorders.
Do as John Wick did. Keep Pc
ru-na In the house. It stimulates
digestion, aids in throwing off the
poisonous secretions, enriches the
blood, increases the resistance to
disease and promotes good health
generally. <
Insist upon having genuine Pc
ru--na in either tablet or liquid
form. Your dealer has It.

NOW GO on WITH THE STORY

r. HE beaver was of course not
| frozen; and the skin stripped
- off easily under the little, saw
ing strokes of his skinning knife. He
was rather surprised at it's size. It
came off nearly round, and it would
stretch fully thirty-two inches in
diameter. Washing it carefully, he
put it over his back and started on.
Other traps yielded pelts in his
long days march.
Tired out, barely able to stand
erect, yet wholly content with his
days catch, Ned made the cabin in
the twilight, built his fire, and cooked
his meager supper. After supper he
skinned out such little animals as he
had not taken time to skin. on the
trail, f1eshed and stretched his pelts,
then hung them up to dry. He was
almost too tired to remove his wet
garments when the work was done.
He hardly remembered drawing the
blankets over him.
But in spite of the hardship, the
wrack Of cold. the fatigue that crept
upon him like a dreadful sickness,
Ned had many moments of compare
tive pleasure. One of these mo-
ments, seemingly yielding him much
more delight than the occasion war
ranted, occurred at the end of the
second day Of actual trapping.
This days march had taken him to
the Forks cabin; and there, as twilight
drew about him. he was amazed to
hear the nearing sound of footsteps in
the snow. Some one was coming
laboriously toward him, with the slow,
tread of deep fatigue.

WORDS FROM
THE LIPS OF
WISE MEN

~ INNING often outwits itself.
~ Expression is the dress of
thought.
A little each day is much in a
year.
A man may have a just esteem
OF himself without being proud.
To the vulgar eye, few things
are wonderful that are not dis.
tant.
Eloquence may exist without a
proportionate degree OF wisdom.
1t is better not to resolve than
not perform after having resolved.
To choose time Is to save time,
and an unreasonable motion is but
beating the air.
Work is the grand cure of all
the maladies and miseries that
ever beset mankind.
Let him who has bestowed a
kindness be silent about it. Let
him who has received it tell it
abroad.
Fine clothes may disguise, but
silly words will disclose fool.
. Things which hurt the eye many
make haste to remove, but If any
thing hurts the soul they put off
its cure for a year.
There is music even in beauty,
and the silent note which Cupid
strikes, far sweeter than the
sound of an instrument. For
there is music wherever there is
harmony, order or proportion.

n pKELEY, Cal. Poor
ID zen" at the University of
california are having a
hard time of 1t. They are being
annoyed by the fair goods, and
to put a stop to this sort OF
thing they have formed a Sam
son Club"
The formula for success adopt.
ed by the club is: Grow whis.
kers, shun goods, study in
peace. Follow this rule, say
the leaders of the club, and the
country will probably have more
candidates for future Presidents
than of the lounge lizard type.
which they assert the present
campus social life is developing.
Samson" was chosen as the
name of the club because all mem
bers must take an oath not to
shave oftener than once a fort
night.
IF members of the club keep
their oath-we can all study in
peace-and those members who
are not in the presidential chair
will have an opportunity to be-
come Cabinet members" said
Linn Chaplin, a freshman and
chief organizer, according to
campus gossip.
The resolutions passed by this
group of students state:
THAT Friday and Saturday
nights must be devoted to study
at the library.
mo member of the club shall
accompany any coed to any
dance. show or other function
unless accompanied by at least
five other members for his pro-
lection, at his expense.
IAN correspondence of a femi-
nine character received by any
member must first be read by
club censor. If 1t fails to meet
his approval, it must be read be-
fore the entire body"

W ESTERDAY afternoon a
man with long hair and
a woolly appearance
boarded one of the cars on
Travis street.
He had been freely imbibing
and besides that bore all the
earmarks of holy terror. The
car was full Of passengers 60
ing home to supper and a slight
ripple of uneasiness went up
and down both rows of seats as
the bad man entered.
AS soon as he had sized up
the people in the car as quiet
and inoffensive citizens, he pro-
claimed in a loud voice that he
was the only man in Texas that
could eat glass, drink Prussic
acid, play with the catamounts
or take Graeco-Roman falls
with a trolley car just by way
Of recreation. He gave several
whoops, and then called on the
passengers to stand up and be
pulverized by the worst man
south of Ohio.
Everybody looked out of the
windows and pretended to be
greatly interested in something
going on outside.
"Anybody got a wild beast
or a buzz saw or a hornets
nest, gentlemen, that / could
chaw up just by way of
lunch. Can't somebody kick me
or say l wrote Beautiful Snow
so that / can use him for
door mat?"
One timid woman rang the
bell and got off the car, and the
conductor got out on the rear
platform and pretended not to
hear. In one corner of the car
sat young man who had been
quietly reading a newspaper all
the while. He was a deter
mined looking fellow with a
square jaw and broad shoulders.
A druggist who was riding
home to supper whispered to
the man next to him: .
"See that fellow reading the
paper? That's Babbit,' the best
amateur boxer in Houston. He
amt afraid of anything on
earth. There amt anything in
the Y. M. G.. A. athletic rooms
that can put on the gloves with
him. If that fellow fools with
Rabbit he'll think lightning
struck him. Rabbits a quiet
man, but terrible when
aroused"
The Washington times., 1923-05-22

; Presently the bad man
snatched Rabbits paper out of
his hand and threw it out of
the window.
"Now watch Rabbit do him
gleefully.
The great amateur rose
quickly and said, II am going
to give you a good thrashing,
sir, and don't say / didn't warn
you"
Then he led with his famous
upper cut for the bad mans
jaw. The bad man ducked like
a wild duck when you shoot at
him, then he jumped about four
feet high and kicked Rabbit on
the ear with a No. 10 boot.
Then he hit Rabbit nine times
on the nose, jammed him down
in the corner and bit a piece out
OF his ear, tore his coat down
the back and gave him four or
five punches below the belt and
then dragged the athlete down
the aisle of the car onto the
platform and bumped his head
for a while on the brake and
then threw him off the car and
jumped off after him.
AS the car rounded the curve,
the passengers looked and saw
the bad man sitting on Rabbit
and filling his mouth with sand.
These things sometimes turn
out different from what you
expected" said the druggist, as
he slipped little piece Of Gin
namon into his mouth.
