N. MEXICO REJECTS PROHIBITION
Initiative and Referendum Also Turned
Down By New State
Santa Fe, N. M.—The constitution
formulated by the convention which
closed Monday, contains 20,000 words,
130 sections grouped into twenty-two
articles. The adopted constitution
follows along the older models, with
these salient, new features:
An elective corporation commission
having no judicial jowers, but never-
theless the right to regulate rates for
transportation and transmission, to
grant charters and to supervise cor-
porations. An automatic arrange-
ment immediately takes the decisions
of the commission up to the state su-
preme court, which must pass upon
them judicially, without delay.
The initiative and referendum waS
rejected, but a referendum clause was
Included which enables 25 per cent
| of the voters, upon petition, to sus-
j pend a law within ninety days of a
legislative session and 10 per cent of
the voters upon petition to submit
' a law passed by the last legislature
to a popular vote at the next election,
while a majority of the legislature
jftiav submit to the people constitution-
al amendments.
DOCTORS
FAILED
Suffered Several Years With
Kidney Trouble, "Peruna
Cured Me."
Mr. John N.
Watkins, 8133
Bhenan d o a ti
Ave., St. Louis,
Mo., writes:
"Among all!

dollars on doc-

me. I used it for four months beforo
a complete cure was accomplished, but
am truly grateful to you. The least I
can do In return Is to acknowledge
the merits of Peruna, which I take
pleasure In now doing."
Bladder Trouble.
Mr. C. B. Newliof, 10 Delaware
street, Albany, N. Y., writes:
"Since my advanced age I find that
I have been frequently troubled with
urinary ailments. The bladder seemed
Irritated, and my physician said that
It was catarrh caused by a protracted
cold which would be difficult to over-
come on account of my advanced years.

that I would be helped, but found to
my relief that I soon began to mend
The irritation gradually subsided, and
the urinary difficulties passed away. X
have enjoyed excellent health now for
the past seven months. I enjoy my
meals, sleep soundly, and am as well as
I was twenty years ago. X give all
praise to Peruna."
HUMOR IN THESE VERDICTS
Quaint Ideas and Expressions Re-
corded as Having Been Rendered
by Coroner's Juries.
Referring to a verdict recently
given by a coroner's jury that death
was "caused by the medical evidence,"
the British Medical Journal says:
"Tills verdict may be added to those
cited in the report of the select com-
mittee on death certification, where
Doctor Ogle is quoted as saying, 'One
verdict came before me a little time
ago which was this: "A man died
from stone in the kidney, which stone
he swallowed when lying on a gravel
path In a state of drunkenness." That
was given as a verdict. I thought
Borne joke had been played, and I
wrote down about it, and found it was
an absolute fact. Another one
like this: "Child three months old,
found dead, but no evidence whether
born alive,"'" These novel judg-
ments recall that an up-state newspa-
per not long ago spoke of taking a
murdered man's "post-mortem" state-
ment.
Good luck likes to visit people wh*
are not expecting it.
