'3rf5 $: A TONIC LAXATIVE Pe-ru-na, an Up-to-Date Family Medicine That Should Be In Every Home scare has really pained a foothold In tha system, a person wns to take a doso or two of a Rood tonic laxative the great major lty of cases of eickncs'i would bo pro vented. Peruna is a remedy that should be kept in the house. Its virtue as a preventive to disease, is tho thins I wish chiefly tq emphasize. A slinht condition of constipation may lead to serious sluggishness of tho bowels, biliousness, re-absorption of poisonous ma tcrrnl and finally sickness. Or apathy of the stomach in which the food is not rel ished, may gradually lead to atonic dyspep sia or to the acquisition of some acute dis ease. For cither ono of these conditions a few doses of tho tonio laxative Peruna. would set matters right. This is why tha remedy should always be kept handy by. When once tho valuo of Pcruna as a household remedy is understood no homo would be without it. Cathartics, pills and powders would be discarded. Irritating tonics would be no longer taken. Alco holic drinks would have no place. With a few doses of Pcruna a vigorous appetite is produced and if there be any sluggishness of the bowels their function is gradually restored. Most laxatives are weakening in their effect. A tonic laxativo guards against this weakening effect. Until right living has become so thoroughly established that all medicines arc superfluous, Peruna will be n eded. It is exactly tho remedy that meets numerous necessities of the house hold. Sold at all drug stores. Mr. John B. Perkins, 22 Whiting St., Tlymouth, Mass., writes: "I think Po runa is a number one medicine. I was troubled with catarrh and bowel com plaint. I tried several doctors, but could only find temporary relief. I took Peruna and am glad to say that it curea my ca tarrh and corrected my bowels."

Nearly everybody is obliged more or less to take a laxative. There aio of course a few exceptions. A great many people also need occasionally to tako a tonic. Probably few households exist that do not make use of tonics and laxatives. The remedy Poruna is a laxative tonic. It not only operates as a gentle laxative, but also as a tonic. Tho benefit derived from such n remedy is a great deal more in the prevention of diseaso than in the cure. After a person has really become sick, 'either with an acute or chronic ail ment, the rule should be to employ a physician, dr gome ono who can give tho case his personal attention. But long be fore this happens the person will complain of this or that symptom, which is not se vere enough to interfere with his regular 'activities.

They coax tho liver into activity by gentle methods, they do not scour; they do not gripe; they do not weaken; but they do start ail tho secretions of the liver and stom ach in a way that soon puts these organs in a healthy condition and corrects constipation. Munyon's Paw-Paw Pills are a tonic to the stomach, liver and nerves.

On tho Mississippi river In olden days tho passenger steamboats were very ornato affairs, vying with each other in garish glory. Ono owner hit on tho idea if naming his, steam boat's cabinets instead of numbering them. So he named them in honor of the states of tho Union, each having above tho door tho gilt title of some state, tho big central cabin being called tho "Texas," after tho largest state. Other boat owners took up tho idea, and thus tho word cabin was gradually alternated by "state" room. For years tho best cabin was still known as tho Texas. Then that sobriquet died with the ebbing glory of tho old river steamers. But tho word "stateroom" became incorporat ed into our language, and in time even broko into tho dictionary, as does many another catch phrase. Not one person in a thousand who occupies a stateroom Uhowb tjio term onco meant "a room turned for a state." COFFEE THRESHED HER.' 15 Long Years. A Lenten S ermon Dr REV. JAMES M. CRAY, D.

In harmony with this, our present sermon dealB with ono of tho tender est events of a Boclal nature occurring In tho last week of his earthly life. "Then Jesus six days beforo tho passovcr carao to Bethany." Then ho did it. If you would understand tho significance of tho word "then." you must go back to tho previous chapter, which tellB dis that all tho people were gathering to Jerusalem for tho passovcr, and all animated moro or loss by tho thought as to whpther ho would como to tho feast, for tho chlof priests and Pharisees had given a commandment that If any man knew where ho wore, ho should show it, that they might take him. Then it was that ho camo. Roforo this on different occasions ho had hidden him self from his enemies, not through cowardice or fear, but becauso his hour had not yet como, ho was not yot ready to bo offered, tho Scripture had not yet been fulfilled. Now, how over, tho crisis is approaching, and ho ndvances consciously to mot his cruel death. "If over thero were a calm, voluntary, dellbornto walking up to death, it was this last Visit of Jesus Into Judea." Sympathy With Jesus. Out why Is It that ho seeks out this llttlo vlllago two miles from Jerusa lem, and spends so much of his Inter vening tlmo thero? Perhaps the fol lowing words supply tho reason, since wo read that Lazarus was thero, whom ho had raised from the dead. Jesus loved LazaruB and his house hold, and, doubtless, like ourselves, ho liked to bo ns much as possible with thoso ho loved. If wo know wo were soon to die, with whom would we like to pass tho closing moments of our llfo, if not with thoso who un derstood us best nnd who sympa thized with us the most? JesuB. re member, was a man. Not merely a man, but yot a man a perfect man. And it Is Just such touches of his humanity that bring him so near to us, and solace us with tho thought that In him wo hnvo an high priest who can bo touched with a feeling of our Infirmities I3ut what about our sympathy for Jpsub, now that wo aro sure of his sympathy for us? Does he ever find n Bethany In our homes and hearts' Ho is still In some senso exposed to the persecution of his enomles In thn earth, for tho kingdoms of this world have not yet beconyj tho kingdoms of dur God and of his Christ. An apos tlo speaks of somo who "crucify our Lord afresh, and put him to an open shamo." If this bo so, then ho still Joks for a quiet haven, and a minis tration of lovo from thoso whom ho hath quickened when they wore dend In trespasses and sins. Is It so with UB? A Strong Bible Proof. I canont leavo this vjrso without calling attention to It as one of tho most convincing arguments of tho truth of Christianity. What slgnlll ;anco thero is in thoso words: "Beth any where Lazarus was which had been dead, whom lio raised from tho dead." Thero Is evidenco that this gospql watf known In Jerusalem at leaBt within seventy yoars after this raising of Lazarus occurred. Thoro aro grounds for believing, Indeed, that It was published within thirty to forty years of that dato. Surely thero must lmvo beon persons then, and thoro, who could personally have ti-s-tilled to tho falsity of tho whole thing If It woro false! Wo dannot Imnglno any such event occurring in 'ho neighborhood of Chicago, for examplp, not longer ngo than that, and our be ing unablo to find anybody to deny it from personnl knowledgo, if It wero to bo denied? But has tho resurrec tion of Lazarus over beon denied ? Let fho sllonco of tho Jowlsh nation, and tho Gentllo world nnswor. So far from tho onomles of Josus dishonor ing this mighty fact, they bo entirely believed that they consulted how they might put Lazarus to death, becauso that by reason ofhlm many of tho Jewt went away and believed on Jesus. WATER REQUIRED FOR CORN Size of Leaves of Plants Seems to Do Important In Matter of Evapora tion of Moisture. In 1910 250 parts of wator producod ono part of dry matter; In 1911 it took 315 parts of water for ono of dry mat tor at tho Nebraska oxperlmont sta tion. Thoso results woro caused by tho dlfforcnco in humidity, mainly by wind and sunshine, causing rapid evaporation, tho roots of tho plants being wntorod artificially and pro tected from rainfall. It will bo scon what nn Influence different seasons may have on n crop with similar nmountB of rainfall, when ono is cloudy with llttlo wind nnd tho other tho reverse.

Poor and medium soils need less wator for a corn crop when manured. On rich soils with plant food ulrendy present this effect Is not so marked. Tho lowest water requirement per unit of dry weight wns found to bo 45 por cent to CO por cent, and tho latter figure was found best for a largo yield.
