LIKE a DEMON grip has crossed our
country, leaving behind scores of
physical wrecks.
Victims of catarrh of the head, catarrh of
the throat, catarrh of the lungs, catarrh of
the stomach, catarrh of the kidneys, catarrh
of the pelvic organs, are to be counted by
hundreds of thousands. Grip is epidemic
catarrh, and sows the seed of chronic ca
tarrh within the system.
This is so true that few grip sufferers are
able to make a complete recovery until they
have used Peruna.
Never in the history of medicine has a
remedy received such unqualified and un
iversal eulogies as Peruna.
A New York Alderman's Experience.
Hon. Joseph A. Flinn, alderman Fifth
District, writes from 104 Christopher street,
New York City, as follows:
"When a pestilence overtakes our people
we take precaution as a nation to preserve
the citizens against the dread disease.
“ La grippe has entered thousands of our
homes this fall, and I noticed that the
people who used Peruna were quickly re
stored, while those who depended on doctor's
prescriptions, spent weeks in recovering,
leaving them weak and emaciated.
" I had a slight attack of la grippe and at
once took Peruna, which drove the disease
out of my system in a few days and did not
hinder me from pursuing my daily work.
" I should like to see our Board of Health
give it official recognition and have it used
generally among our poor sick people in
Greater New York.”—Joseph A. Flinn.
D. L. Wallace, a charter member of the
International Barber's Union, writes from
15 Western avenue, Minneapolis, Minn.:
“ Following a severe attack of la grippe
I seemed to be affected badly ail over. I
suffered with a severe backache, indigestion
and numerous ills, so 1 could neither eat
nor sleep, and I thought I would give up
my work, which I could not afford to do.
“ One of my customers who was greatly
helped by Peruna advised me to try it, and
X procured a bottle the same day. I used
it faithfully and felt a marked improvement.
During the next two months I took five
bottles, and then felt splendid. Now my
head is clear, my nerves steady, I enjoy
food, and rest well. Peruna has been worth
a dollar a dose to me.”—D. L. Wallace.
Mr. O. H. Perry, Atchison, Kansas,
writes:
‘‘Again, after repeated trials of your
medicines, Peruna and Manalin, I give this
as my expression of the wonderful results of
your very valuable medicine in its effects in
my case after repeated trials.
“First, it cured me of chronic bronchitis
of fifteen years' standing, by using two
bottles of Peruna in January, 1894, and
no return of it.
“After I was cured of bronchitis I had la
grippe every winter for several winters.
But, through the use of Peruna, it got
gradually weaker in its severity, until it
dwindled down to a mere stupor for two or
three days. Now the stupor does not
trouble me any more."—O. H. Perry.
A Congressman’s Experience.
House of Representatives,
Washington, D. C.
Peruna Medicine Co., Columbus, Ohio.
Gentlemen—“I am more than satisfied
with Peruna, and find it to be an excellent
remedy for the grip and cattarh. 1 have
used it in my family and they all join me
in recommending it as an excellent remedy."
Very respectfully,
George H. White.
If you do not receive prompt and satis
factory results from the use of Peruna,
write at once to Dr. Hartman, giving a full
statement of your case, and he will be
pleased to give you his valuable advice
gratis.
Address Dr. Hartman, President of The
Hartman Sanitarium, Columbus, Ohio.

One of the essentials of the happy homes of to-day is a fund of
B information as to right living and the best methods of promoting
health and happiness. With proper knowledge, each hour of
recreation, of enjoyment and of effort may be made to contribute
to that end and are of not less value than the using of the most
wholesome foods and the selecting of the best medicinal agents
when needed. With the well-informed, medicinal agents are used
only when nature needs assistance and while the importance of
cleansing the system effectually, when bilious or constipated, has
long been known, yet until within recent years it was necessary
i to resort to oils, salts, extracts of roots, barks and other cathartics
which were found to be objectionable and to call for constantly
increased quantities.
Then physicians having learned that the most excellent laxative
I and carminative principles were to be found in certain plants,
principally in the leaves, the California Fig Syrup Co. discovered
a method of obtaining such principles in their purest condition and
of presenting them with pleasant and refreshing liquids in the form
most acceptable to the system and the remedy became known as—
Syrup of Figs—as figs were used, with the plants, in making it,
because of their agreeable taste.
This excellent remedy is now rapidly coming into universal use as the
best of family laxatives, because it is simple and wholesome and cleanses
and sweetens the system effectually without disturbing the natural
functions and without unpleasant after effects and its use may be discon
tinued when it is no longer required.
All who would enjoy good health and its blessings should remember
that it is the one remedy which physicians and parents well-informed
approve and recommend and use and which they and their little ones
t alike enjoy, because of its pleasant flavor, its gentle action and its
beneficial effects.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all reliable druggists, at the regular price
of fifty cents per bottle, in original packages only, having the name of i
the remedy—^Syrup of Figs—and the full name of the Company—
California Fig Syrup Co.—printed on the front of every package.

THE LIVE STOCK MARKET.
Latest Cuotations from South Omaha
and Kansas City.
SOUTH OMAHA.
CATTLR—There was only a fair run
of cattle, but the market did uot seem
to have the snap that characterised the
trade the previous day. The steer mar
ket was & little slow and rather uneven.
Some sales were made that were about
steady, but others were weak to a dime
lower. The good heavy cattle suffered
the most, and In fact buyers did not seem
to be at all anxious for the better grades,
and as a result sellers had a rather hard
time to dispose of that class. The cow
market did not show much change. Trad
ing was not exactly brisk, but still the
cattle kept going to the scales and by the
middle of the forenoon practically all the
early arrivals were disposed of. Bulls,
veal calves and stags all sold In yester
day’s notches. The speculators all seemed
to be anxious for cattle owing to the
fact that they carried over very few from
the day before, and as a result sellers
had little trouble In getting very satis
factory prices for what they had to offer.
HOGS—There was a liberal supply of
hogs at all points and as a result prices
took a tumble. The decline at this point
amounted to about 5® 10c. Trading was
not very active at any time, as it seemed
to be hard for buyers and sellers to agree
on prices. The light weight hogs sold
largely from $7.20 down. Medium weights
went from $7.20 to $7.25, good heavy hogs
from $.25 to $7.30 and prime heavies sold
mostly from $7.30 to $7.35.

POPULATION DISTRIBUTION.
Bulletin Showing Geographical Loca
tion of the People.
WASHINGTON, D. C.—The census
bureau on Friday issued a bulletin on
the geographical distribution of pop
ulation in the United States. It
shows that almost 96 per cent of the
total population live in the country
drained by the Atlantic ocean; over 53
per cent in that drained by the Gulf
of Mexico; 44 per cent in the drain
age area of the Mississippi river; al
most 10 per cent in the area drained
by the Great Lakes; 4 per cent on
the Pacific coast, and half of 1 per
cent in the Great basin.
The proportion living within the re
gion drained to the Atlantic ocean is
steadily diminishing, while the part
drained to the Gulf of Mexico is be
coming relatively more populous, as Is
the case, in a still more marked de
gree, in the Great basin and the Pa
cific ocean region. Of the foreign
born, 93 per cent live in the region
drained by the Atlantic ocean, 36.4 per
cent in the region drained by the Gulf
of Mexico, and 15 per cent in that
drained to the Great Lakes. The pro
portion in the region drained to the
Pacific ocean is 6.1 per cent. Out of
every 1.000 negroes, 998 are found in
the regions drained to the Atlantic
ocean, and 61.4 per cent are in the
lands drained to the Gulf of Mexico,
the proportion in the west and on the
Pacific coast being trifling.
Where Chinese Are Admitted.
WASHINGTON, D. C.—The secre
tary of the treasury on Friday approv

open for the admission of Chinese per
sons, are closed, except Rich Ford, Vt.;

The Ills of Women Act upon the
Nerves like a Firebrand.
The relation of woman’s nerves and generative organs is very
close; consequently nine tenths of the nervous prostration, nervous
despondency, “the blues,” sleeplessness, and nervous irritability of
women arise from some derangement of the organism which makes
her a woman. Herein we prove conclusively that Lydia E. Pinkham’*
Vegetable Compound will quickly relieve all this trouble.
Details of a Severe Case Cured in Eau Claire, Wis.
“Dear Mrs. Pinkham:—I have been ailing from female trouble for
the past five years. About a month ago 1 was taken with nervous prostra
tion, accompanied at certain times before menstruation with fearful head
aches. 1 read one of your books, and finding many testimonials of the bene
ficial effects of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, experi
enced by lady sufferers, 1 commenced its use and am bappy to state that after
using a few bottles I feel like a new woman, aches and pains all gone.
“ I am recommending your medicine to many of my friends, and I assure
you that you have my hearty thanks for your valuable preparation which has
done so much good. I trust all suffering women will use your Vegetable Com
pound.”—Mrs. Minnie Tiktz, 620 First Ave., Eau Claire, Wis. (May 28,1901).
Nothing will relieve this distressing condition so
surely as Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound; it
soothes, strengthens, heals and tones np the delicate
female organism. It is a positive cure for all kinds of
female complaints; that bearing down feeling, back
ache, displacement of the womb, inflammation of the
ovaries, and is invaluable during the change of life, all
of which may help to cause nervous prostration.
Read what Mrs. Day says:
“ Dear Mrs. Pinkham : — I will write you a few lines to let you know of
the benefit I have received from taking your remedies. I suffered for a long
time with nervous prostration, backache, sick headache, painful menstru
ation. pain in the stomach after eating, and constipation. I often thought I
would lose my mind. I began to take Lydia E. Pinkhum’s Vegetable
Compound and was soon feeling like a new woman. 1 cannot praise it too
highly, it does all that it is recommended to do, and more.
“ I hope that every one who suffers as 1 did will give Lydid E. Pink hum's
remedies a trial.” — Mns. Maiiie Day, Elcanora, Pa. (March 25,1901.)
Free Medical Advice to Women.
Mrs. Pinkham invites all women to write to her
for advice. You need not be afraid to tell her the
things you could not explain to the doctor—your let
ter will he seen only by women and is absolutely con
fidential. Mrs. Pinkham’n vast experience with such
troubles enables her to tell you just what Is best for
you, and she will charge you nothing for her advice.

immediately restored my health.
“I can heartily recommend it to all suffering women.” — Mrs. Bertha
