"General State of Texas G. A. BL, writes
from 1700 First St., N. E., Washington,
D. C., as follows:
"I cannot too highly recommend your
preparation for the relief of catarrhal
troubles In tlielr various forms. Some
members of my own family have used
It with most gratifying results. When
other remedies failed, Peruna proved
most efficacious and I cheerfully certi
fy to its curative excellence."
Mr. Fred L. Hebard, for nine years a
leading photographer of Kansas City,
Mo., located at the northeast corner of
12th and Grand Aves., cheerfully gives
the following testimony: "Itis a proven
fact that Pei-una will cure catarrh and
la grippe, and as a tonic It has no equal.
Druggists have tried to make me take
something else 'just as good,' but Peru-
na is good enough for me."
Pe-ru-na in Tablet Form.
For two years Dr. Hartman and his
assistants have incessantly labored to
create l'eruna in tablet form, and their
strenuouslaborshave just) been crowned
with success. People who object to
liquid medicines can now secure Peru-
na tablets, which represent the solid
medicinal ingredients of Peruna.

why it is the best of personal and family

Every Indication That Tommy would
Be Successful Politician.
The children, especially Tommy,
were very much interested in the
game of politics, and father was de-
lighted with their precocity. The
other day there was more than the
usual whooping in the playroom, and
their mother found the two smaller
children assailing Tommy vigorously.
"What's the matter?" she asked.
"Tommy, what have you been doing?"
"Nawthin: Only playing politics."
"Well, but what did you do to the
children?"
"Just playing convention. We
adopted the unit rule and 1 was chair-
man of the delegation. Then we Intro-
duced a resolution to decide whether
they should take my apple or 1 should
take theirs."
"Well?"
"I cast the vote of tho delegation."

GUTHRIE: The application of the

Officer Caldwell declared the weak
point of the petitioner's claim was
that agents of the Gainesville com-

the state. This, ho argued, is in vio-
lation of the constitution. He cited
the case of Delameter vs. South Da-
kota, wherein a decision of the su-
