Meridian St., Indianapolis, Intl., Member Second High School Alumni Ass'n, writes: "Pcruna Is the finest regulator of a disordered stomach I have ever found. It certainly deserves high praise, for It Is skillfully prepared. "I was in a terrible condition from a neglected case of catarrh of the stomach. My food had long ceased to bo of any good and only distressed mo after eating. I was nauseated, had heartburn and headaches, and felt rnn flown completely. Hut in two weeks nftcr I took Peruna I was a changed person. A few bottles of the medicino made- a great change, and in threo months my stomacli was cleared of satarrh, and my entire system in a better condition." Qcnovivo May.

A story is told of a young wife who, in the midst of th discussion, was asked by her hus band which she considered ought to give in first the man, who was des tined to bo master of tho woman, or tho woman, who was created for tho man? Tho fair combatant settled tho matter with a kiss as sho replied: "Neither tho stronger nor tho weaker, but tho ono who loves tho most." To tho housewife who has not yet become acquainted with the new things of everyday use in the market and who is reasonably satisfied with the old, we would suggest that a trial of Defiance Cold Water Starch be made at once. Not alone because It is guar anteed by the manufacturers to be su perior to any other brand, but because each 10c package contains 16 ozs., while all the other kinds contain but 12 ozs.

MJLs 1MMI Some Famous Sayings 'YlftVai,'M. flit PsS WASHINGTON. (In his address to tho Governors of tho States, June 8, 1783.) Thero aro four things which I hum bly conceive aro essential to tho well being, I may even venture to say, to tho existence of tho United States, as an independent power. First, an indissoluble union of tho states under ono federal head. Secondly, a sacred regard to public Justice. Thirdly, the adoption of a proper peace establishment, and, Fourthly, tho prevalence of that pa cific and friendly disposition among the people of tho United States which will induce them to forget their lo cal prejudices and policies; to make those mutual concessions which aro requisite to tho general prosperity; and, In somo instances, to sacrifice their individual advantages to tho In terest of tho community. These aro tho pillars on which tho glorious fabric of our Independency and national character must be sup ported. Liberty is the basis, and who ever would daro to sap the founda tion, or overturn tho structure, under whatever specious pretext ho may at tempt it, will merit the bitterest exe crations, and tho severest punishment which can be inflicted by his injured country. DANIEL WEBSTER. (Address In Congress, July 4, 1851.) I now do declare, in tho face of all tho intelligent of tho ago, that, for tiro period which has elapsed from tho day that Washington laid the foundation of this capltol to tho pres ent time, thero has been- no country upon earth In which life, liberty and property havo been moro amply and steadily secured, or moro freely en joyed, than In these United States of IDEAS OF THOMAS JEFFERSON Extract From Letters Written by Famous Statesman. Tho basis of our government being tho opinion of the people, tho 7ery first object should bo to keep that right, and were It left to mo to decide whether wo should havo a govern ment without newspapers, or newspa pers without a government, I should not hesitate a moment to prefer tho latter. But I should mean that every man should receive those papers and be capable of reading them. In a let ter to Edward Carrington, dated Paris, Jan. 16, 17S7. I am for a government, vigorously frugal and simple, applying all the possible savings of the public revenue to the discharge of tho national debt; and not for a multiplication of offi cers and salaries merely to raako par tisans, and for increasing by every device, tho public debt, on principle of its being a public blessing. I am for freo commerce with all nations; political connections with none, and little or no diplomatic establishment. To Elbridge Gerry, Jan. 28, 1799.

" Who is thero that can stand upon tho foundation of facts, acknowledged or proved, and as sert that theso our republican institu tions havo not answered the true ends of government beyond all precedent in human history?

In Manila all the business houses are draped with starry bunting and the ancient palaces are bright with the Stars and Stripes, and even the boat? in tho harbor aro decked with "Old Glory." Towering arches, generallj of bamboo, aro erected in tho streets and strung with flags and portraits of our national heroes.
