Mrs. Katie Scheffel,
r. F. D. No. S. Lowell, Ohio

81 have been suffering for years
with female trouble. Was operated
on five years ago. 1t relieved me
some but 1 did not regain my
strength. Two years later was
taken sick and belfast several
months. l treated a long while
without much relief. / was dis
couraged, my mind affected, so
nervous I could neither cat or
sleep and unable to do anything.
We tried several doctors but
one after another gave up my case
as hopeless. Finally good friend
advised me to try Pc-ru-na. l did.
1t relieved me almost Immediately.
Your medical department said |
was suffering from chronic catarrh
of the system. I began taking your
medicine in March, 1914, and con-
tinued until August. ! took ten
bottles of Pe-ru-na and three bot
ties of Man-a-lin and felt like a
new person. Your medicine seemed
like a gift from Heaven. 1t was
like coming from darkness into
light.
We have used your medicine
since for coughs, colds and grip
with good results. We will always
keep it on hand. l weigh twenty
five pounds more than ever did,
cat and sleep we'll and can do a
good days work. Everybody says
| look fine. Even the doctors are
surprised. l cannot thank you
enough and will always recommend
Pe-ru--na to sufferers from
catarrh."
MRS. KATIE SCHEFFEL.
r. F. D. No. 5, Lowell, O.
Mrs. Schefiel is only one of
many thousand women in the
world, who owe their present health
to Pe-ru-na. The record of this
medicine is a proud one as PERU
ma has held the confidence of both
sexes for fifty years or more.
If your trouble is due to
catarrhal inflammation in any or
gan or part of the body, do like
Mrs. Scheffel. Try Pe-ru-na. Insist
upon having the original and re-
liable remedy for catarrhal condi-
tions. You won't be sorry.

RIVER FALLS WINS,
LOSES, DEBATE

The affirmative debating team of
the Normal school lost a very close
debate to Superior on Friday evening.
The decision was 2 to /, with Super
ior having 10 higher rating. The
negative team, debating the same
question at Eau Claire, won a.unani-
nous decision. As the Superior Nor
NAL school won it's debate against
Eau Claire by to l decision, the
Championship of the Northwestern
Triangle goes to that school.
This is Professor MitchelPs third
season coaching the local teams. In
1921 and in 1922 the teams from the
local school won their debates. The
present season has been very success
full, even though the championship
was not won. Both teams put up
strong debates and showed excellent
coaching. The judges from the Min
nesota colleges expressed themselves
as highly pleased with the debate, re-
marking that it was a better debate
than those participated in by many of
the colleges.

THERE'S ALWAYS A REASON

In blind imitation of a really tai
ented political orator, far lesser lights
in the profession have taken up an
affected slur at the press as gesture
to illustrate "brave, lone fight for
the people" or something. According
to an item in the Pierce County Her
aid, this trick is even being worked"
in Pierce county.
It is hard to believe that the farm
ers of this community would fall
for any such clumsy stuff as asser-
tions which speakers may make re-
garding the country weeklies being
"bonght off by the interests" or Eat
tempting to hoodwink the farmer"
to "boost his taxes"
It's altogether too absurd. The
country weekly is solely dependent
upon rural support. It's circulation
is usually from 70 to 80 per cent
among the farmers. Without this
farmer circulation the advertising pa
tronage would be withdrawn, for the
merchants depend upon the farmer
trade also.
The farmer is the country weekly's
best friend, and every country weekly
that we are acquainted with tries its
utmost to merit this friendship.
The politicians know this as well as
anyone; and better than most. Then
why should they denounce> and slur
these papers?
The answer is simple.
MIR. Farmer, if you were having a
house or barn built and your best
friend gave it as his opinion that the
foundation or some other part of the
structure was weak or not properly
constructed, would you berate him,
even if his opinion didn't appeal to
you? Hardly. You would either
thank him, or explain to him what
you wanted, and why the point in
question filled the bill.
But, on the other hand, suppose the
builder was really trying to put some
thing over on you. What would his
attitude be toward the criticism of
