Suffered Several Years. PERUNA MADE ME WELL Mrs. Elizabeth Reuther, 1002 11th St., N. W., Washington, D. C., writes: "I endorse Peruna as a splendid medicine for catarrh and stomach trouble, from which I suffered sev eral years. I took it tor several months, found my health was re stored and have felt splendialy ever since. I now take it when I con tract a cold, and it soon rids the sys tem of any catarrhal tendencies.” Standby lor a Cold. Those who object to liquid medl- j clnes can procure Peruna Tablet*.

If they become inactive and fail to eliminate the waste matter, they are apt to throw the whole mechanism of the body out of order, thus toxic poisons can accumulate in the system and be as deadly as snake venom. Besides causing the minor ailments of rheumatism, sciatica, lumbago and backache, neglect of the kidneys is apt to develop into more serious diseases, such as diabetes or stone in the bladder. Bid the body of toxic poisons—clean the bladder and kidneys and cure the twinges of rheumatism with Anuric and you win the battle of life. Anuric was first discovered by Dr. Tierce and has benefited thousands of sufferers as well as appeased and elimin :ted the ravages of the more serious kidney diseases.

This fact 4 4 alone makes it easy to contrib- 4 4 ute to the Liberty loan. It makes 4 4 it a pleasant duty for Ameri- 4 4 cans to lend their good credit to 4 4 their European allies.

A French mother whose two sons, her only children, have given their lives for France, has written to Margaret Prescott Montague, the American writer, praising the cour tesy of the American troops now in France. The letter is enough to make the heart of every American swell with pride. It was printed in the Atlantic Monthly, and says: There have been here, in Paris, many touching expressions of the gratitude of our French people toward America. The first soldiers who arrived here have been greetedl with extraordinary manifestations of the most ardent patriotic joy. In re turn, those fine, handsome men have en deared themselves to us by traits which Reveal the nobility of their character. 1 myself have been by a mere chance the object of one of these manifestations, and it has moved me so deeply that 1 must tell you al' about it. V waa watting at the corner of l’Ave nue du Trocadero, all alone, standing on the edge of the sidewalk, w’rapped in my sombre mourning clothes. It was 5 o’clock in the afternoon. I was not think ing of the rides organized through Paris for the American boys, when, all of a sud den, a motor bus appeared, decorated with the American and allies’ flags, and carrying at least 40 of your soldiers. A poilu, one of our men, was driving, and next to him sat a noncommissioned Amer ican officer, who. eeeing me, took aff his hat and, with a deep gesture, saluted me. All the soldiers in the bus rose and re- , peated the salute. Behind this car. at least 20 more motors i followed, the occupants of which, one after the other, repeated the beautiful and touching homage to my dead sons while smiling to me with an air both sac and resolute. T saluted them also, and understood w'ell that they wished to «a> to me. "We have come to fight fpr them to complete the task they have begun!’ And 1 wished to tell them. “Courage el merci!” Was not this a beautiful beginning fof all those valiant fellows. You can well be proud of them, for we feel it a glors to have at our side such soldiers in tliif i struggle for right and liberty. Verbal Hash. From the Milwaukee Journal. Senator LaFollette has made his long heralded speech in congress. With all thf power at his command, he has given hit Me regarding his disloyal acts and utter ances. And the most that one can satf 1 concerning his defense Is that it is nu mlllating to Wisconsin to have a man rep resenting this state who talks such stuff | as Mr. LaFollette voiced in congress. If , anyone can find anything American in his speech, he can beat the thousands of loyal ones who have sought vainly for the | slightest evidence of genuine patriotism in Mr. LaFollette’s remarks. What Mr. LaFollette said in defense of himself Is mere verbal hash, an exclama tory concoction made up of the stuff that has been talked by the propagandists, the pro-Germans, the pacifists, and all the others who have been giving aid and com fort to Germany. There is criticism of the nation. There is abuse of the admlnistra- j tion. There is opposition to the war. But i there is never a word of anything con- | etructive favoring the United States , Never a word is there in denunciation of j the Belgian outrage, the sinking of tht | Lusitania, the bad faith of Germany in keeping her pledged word, or the war by the kaiser within the United States against the United States. If the Journal lia-d 1,000.000 tongues, it would take them all to tell the outrages i committed by the German government against the United States and the harm , done America by propagandist newspa- ; pers. treasonable individuals, and such j lack loyal citizens as Senator LaFollette. All their talk about free speech is pretty, | but disloyally so. When a man is trying J to burn one's house or murder one’s chil4 dren, men cannot talk about free speech. There Is nothing to do but act. As for the Americanism of those who are backing . Senator LaFollette in his lack loyalty po- ■ sltion, it is nil. And as Senator Robinson, ! Arkansas, said in bis reply to Mr. LaFol- | lette, Saturday, the man who would not j fight Germany now, after what Germany I has done to us, who would take such a j position as Mr. LaFollette’s. "would not ; fight if his ow*n daughter were ravished In his own home.” Too Big For His Job. From the Milwaukee Journal. On the streets of a neighboring city Is ! a young man without a iob. He is steady In his habits. Ho never enters a saloon. He does not gamble. He has never been known to be late at work. And he is one of the most skilled of the younger men in his orofession. But the company had to 1 discharge him a week ago, within less than three months after be had been giv tn his'first promotion with the company. That promotion, with an increase ot Jo a week in salary, ruined him. Ho thought himself indispensable to the company. And when a man gets to where he thinks nls employers cannot get along without aim. be has taken the first step tbward discharge. This young man, after he was promoted, Decame autocratic. He put ori fine clothes. He began telling the other fellows how ;o do their work. He criticized them for :he way they did their work. He got to where he thought he knew more than the nen who had built up the business arid were directing its affairs. Then they had let him go. Moral: Young men who expect to make ;heir way . in a trade or a business, must fuard against getting too exalted an op1n on of their importance. There is not an employer anywhere that cannot get along without any one of his employes. He night be inconvenienced for a time by lis loss, but there is always someone •eady to take the place of the man a little ligher up. There is a big demand every where for men with ability, but r.o bust iesw has any patience with conceited men vho try to exploit their brains and powers before their fellows. No young man who lopes to advance in his chosen profess.on ran be too careful to refrain from nspurri ng an air of self-importance. Really big men, after all, are the most unassuming l THE POOR BOY’S COUNTRY. + 4 '- 4 4 From the Milwaukee Journal. 4 4 When Henry Fo*d was 17. he 4 4 earned S3 a week.

There are many ways for one to <lo [Ids bit, but n young woman, riding on die hurricane deck of a Fifth avenue bus, discovered a new way, relates the New York Times. The bus was just about to go under the elevated struc ture, which is only a few feet above the heads of those seated on Its top, when a young man In khaki jumped to his feet to join a woman friend In a seat that had just been vacated. The conductor sprung forward to grasp the soldier, but a young woman seated nearby was quicker. "Sit down,” she commanded sharply, at the same time Jerking the arm of Sammy. The khaki clad young man lost his balance and the next moment he was seated—in the young woman's lap. The girl blushed a bright pink, and the soldier apolo gized. and everybody smiled. “I don't care,” said the young woman to her friend. “I feel that l have done my bit in saving that soldier's head from being battered by the low bridge.” Housekeepers Gan Save $200,000,000 on Food In those days when the high cost of liv ing pinches nearly every home, no waste should be overlooked. One of the most flagrant and the most easily prevented, Is the destruction of food by rats. One rat will often do a hundred dollars' damage of food and property In a, single night, and a careful estimate gives over tiOO.OOO.OOO as the value of foodstuffs destroyed annually by these pests. Exterminate them with Stearns’ Paste and save this enormous loss of food. A small box of Stearns' Paste costs only 35 cents and Is usual ly enough to completely rid the house of rats and mice: also effective against cock roaches and waterbugs. Adv. Sounds True.

She gave a sigh of relief when in formed that the price of marriage licenses had not been increased, and that most justices of the pence and ministers still relied on the generosity of the bridegroom for their compensa tion for performing the ceremony.
