I nence hesitated to give their testi
monials to proprietary medicines for
publication. This remains true to-day
of most propietary medicines. But Pe
runa lias become so justly famous, its
merits are known to so many people of
high and low stations, that no one hesi
tates to see his name in print recom
mending Peruna.
The highest men in our nation have
given Peruna a strong endorsement.
Men representing all classes and sta
tions are equally represented.
A dignified representative of the Pres
byterian church in the person of Rev.
E. G. Smith does not hesitate to state
publicly that he has used Peruna in his
family and found it cured when other
remedies failed. In this statement the
Rev. Smith is supported by an elder in
bis church.
Rev. E. G. Smith, pastor of the Presby
terian church of Greensboro,Ga.,writes:
“Having used Peruna in my family for
some time it gives me pleasure to testify
to its true worth.
“My little boy seven years of age had
been suffering for some time with ca
tarrh of the lower bowels. Other rem
edies had failed, but after taking two
bottlesof Peruna the trouble almost en
( tirely disappeared. For this special
malady I consider it well nigh a specific.
■vis a conic iur wean ana worn
out people It has few or no equals.
Rev. B. O. Smith.
Mr. M. J. Rossman, a prominent mer
chant of Greensboro, Ga., and an elder
in the Presbyterian church of that
place, has used Peruna, and in a recent
letter to The Peruna Medicine Co., of
Colnmbus, Ohio, writes as follows:
“For a long time 1 was troubled with
catarrh of the kidneys and tried many
remedies, all of which gave me no relief.
Peruna was recommended to me by
several friends, and after using a few
bottles I am pleased to say that the long
looked for relief was found and / am now
enjoying better health than 1 hate for
years, and can heartily recommend
Peruna to all similarly afflicted. It Is
certainly a grand medicine.”—M. J.
Rossman.
Catarrh is essentially the same where
ever located. Peruna cures catarrh
wherever located.
If you do not derive prompt and satis
factory results from the use of Peruna,
write at once to Dr. Ilartman,giving a
full statement of your case, and he will
be pleased to give you his valuable
advice gratis.

THE LIVE STOCK MARKET.
Latest Quotations from South Omaha
and Kansas City.
SOUTH OMAHA.
CATTLE—There were only about 100
cars of cattle on sale, the rest of the re
ceipts not being offered. The demand on
the part of both packers and feeders was
of quite liberal proportions, so that any
thing desirable changed hands quite rap
idly. There were none too many cows
and heifers In sight to meet the demand,
and as a result the more desirable grades
sold freely at good steady prices. Choice
stuff in some cases even sold a little
stronger. The market on bulls, vent
calves and stags held Just about steady.
There were quite a few stockers and
feeders on sale, but the good stuff sold
readily at steady prices. As the close of,
the week is close at hand the common'
kinds were rather neglected and occa-i
sionally they sold a shade lower. There,
were very few western range steers good
enough for killers and the few that wereJ
offered sold at good, steady prices with
out any difficulty. Range cows were
steady to strong, while the quality was
good, and no more than steady where
Jt was not. Good feeders were also fully
steady.
HOGS—Receipts of hogs continued, but
the market did not show much strength
or activity. On the start a few of the
best loads sold at about steady prices^
The commoner grades, though, were neg
lected and sold all the way from weak
to 5c lower than yesterday's general mar
ket. As the morning advanced the mar
ket did not improve and the close was1
slow and weak. The bulk of the good
hogs sold from 7:45 to 7:50, and a few|
loads went from that up to $7.70. The
packing grades went largely from $7.40
to $7.46.

Instant Relief from Rheumatism and
Neuralgia.
Here Is a case: Mr. T. Shepherd of
Whitburn, Sunderland, Ohio, says:
“My wife suffered severely from rheu
matism, and neuralgia. She could not
get one moment’s rest and was nearly
crazed with pain. Obtained instant re
lief and a permanent cure by using
the contents of one bottle of St. Ja
cobs Oil. There is no other remedy in
the world that will do this. The in
stantaneous effect which St. Jacobs Oil
produces Is a part of its half a century
record.” St. Jacobs Oil is sold in 25
ets. and 50 cts. sizes by all druggists.
The words “Acts like Magic,” "Con
quers Pain,” which have been used in
connection with St. Jacobs Oil for
more than 50 years are wonderfully
and truly descriptive.
