I suffered for five years with -uterine
irregularities which brought on hys
teria And made me a physical wreck I
tried doctors from the different schools
of inedicinebut without any perceptible
change in my condition In my despair
I called on an old jiurse who advised
me io try Pcruna and promised good
results if 1 would persist and take it
regularly I kept this up for six months
and steadily gained strength and
health- and when I had used fifteen
bottles I considered myself entirely
cured I am a grateful happy woman

backache and when weary or worried
in the least I had prolonged headache
I am now in perfect health enjoy life
and have neither an ache or pain
thanks to Pcruna Lucy M Riley
It is no longer a question as to whether
Peruna can be relied on to cure all such
cases During the many years in which
Peruna has been put to test in all forms
and stages of acute and chronic catarrh
no one year has put this remedy to
greater test than the past year
If all the women who are suffering
with any form of female weakness
would write to Dr Hartman Columbus

DISCUSSES THE REVENUE LAW
Business Remedy and Not a Retalia
tory Measure
LINCOLN The railroads of Ne
braska found an eloquent defender in
W G Sears one of the authors of the
new revenue law Before the state
board of equalization ho declared that
the revenue law was a business and
not a retaliatory piece of legislation
If farm property had been increased
it was not just to raise the railroad
assessment for that reason alone He
asserted that farm property ought to
ie raised and that the authors of the
JjM had this object in view He main
tained that year after year the rail
roads had paid taxes in cash while
others had not He said the stock and
bond theory of railroad assessment
seemed good but the state board
would have to look out for the in
flated values of stocks and bonds Ho
said the Chicago Minneapolis St
Paul road in his neighborhood had
been built at an expense of 1G000 a
mile It had been bonded for 32000
He thought the latter was the value of
the road
The estimate of the Chicago Bur
lington Quincy system was dis
cussed The members discussed the
stock and bond theory of valuation
minus the necessary credits Nothing
definite was decided upon and the ul
timate theory of the board is just as
intangible as the most intangible form
of railroad property
