'1 "Tlie World fcSi & of Medicine MfmM' : Recognizes Grip jM$$gZ f J : as Epidemic mgfWMw f fj Catarrh."- MftpS gl h . " . A Southern Judge Benefited. Judge Horatio J. Gosh, Ilartwell, (i;v., writes: "Some five or six years ago I had 11 very severe spell of grip which left me with systemic catarrh. "A friend advised r.ie to try your 1'eiunii, whieli I did, and was imme diately benelited. The third buttle com pleted the. cure." For Catarrh und La Grippe. Mr. Edgar L. V.cnn, San Antonio, wolf Tex., niemher of the I'rcscciit Comedy Co., writes : "I take pleasure In recommending I'erunu for catarrh nnd the la grippe. Three bottles have llxed me up until I feel like a new man. "In fact, it has lecome the standing remedy of our company, which has been bothered with sickness most nil winter, until we got hold of your valuable remedy. "You can always find a bottle in one of the members' rooms. Wo cheerfully wi'imneiul It to tho public." Grip Resulted In Catarrh.

"My mother suggested that I take it to build up my strength nnd rid myself of the troublesome catarrh, nnd it acted with wonderful speed. "I w as able to resume my work inside of two months and I am in splendid health now." One reason why l'eruna has found permanent use in so many homes is that it contains no narcotics of any kind, l'eruna is perfectly harmless. It can bo used any length of time without acquiring a drug habit, l'eruna does not produce temporary results, it relieves permanently. La Grippe Is Epidemic Catarrh. IT spares no class or nationality. The cultured and the ignorant, the aris tocrat and tho pauper, tho masse and the classes are alike subject to la grippe. None are exempt all are liable. Grip is well named. The original French term, la grippe, lias been short ened by tho busy American to read "grip." Without intending to do so, a new word has been coined that exactly descriU-s the ease. Ah if some hideous giant with aw ful grip had clutched us in its fatal clasp. Men, women, children, whole towns and cities are caught 111 the baneful grip of a terrible monster. Have you the grip? Or, rather, ha tho grip got you? If so, read tho fol lowing letters.

I lirt tried it after having la grippe and for the last two years 1 havo used it as a preventive for cold and la grippe. "As a tonic 1 also believe it to be ex cellent.

Sold by F. C. Fricke , Co. and Hcrlng & Co. Very Commendable. The following taken from the Tap lllion Times, Is applicable to many county commissioners In Nebraska and we recommend the same to the board In Cass county: "The Times wishes to commend the stand taken by Commissioners IJianchl and Nielson in the bridge contract matter. There is no plausible reason for the careless construction of some of the new bridges by the contractors and they should be made to make good every defect before the structures are accepted. Care and vigilance upon the part of the county commi.-sioners will do much to break up the attempt to pawn olT shoddy work. The simple fact that the contractors offered to throw oil as high as $1.10 on one of the bridges because of shoddy work Is a confession on the part of the builder that the work was not well done. As soon as it is learned that nothing short of a compliance with the plans and specifications will be accepted, just so soon will Sarpy county have bridges worth the money spent for them. Again we say to the commissioners, stand up for your rights In the matter. Use your back bone and sand to the best advantage and give the people a business administration. You may lose the friendship of some mighty fine fellows, but you will gain the friendship of the people who elevated you to your present positions and who confided the care of the business of Sarpy county to your hands.

Nursery agents are working the far mers In sme sections of this county by selling them at exorbitant prices apple trees said to be grafted Instead of bud ded, as most nursery stock Is. The agents tell them that tho trees were grarted on stock from French crabap pie seed, for which they had to pay a bushel. As a matter of fact, all nursery apple trees are grafted; and French crabapplo seeds costs only a trifle more than ordinary apple seed to be bought at elder mills. Huy only of those whom you know are responsible. Strangers in many Instances are sim ply doing the "grafting" themselves. mm A Cream of Tartar Powder Masks Frew SSrapcs No Atum
