testi monials to proprietary medicines for publication This remains true to day of most propietary medicines But Pe runa has 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 recommending- 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 his church Eev E G Smith pastor of the Presby terian church of GreensboroGa 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 bottles of Peruna the trouble almost en tirely disappeared For this special malady I consider it well nigh a specific ESI Best Conxb Syrup Tastes Oood Vea f PBS lh tme Sola br

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 lam now enjoying better health than I hajte

Latest Quotations from South Omaha and Kansas City SOUTH OMAHA CATTIiE There were only about 100 cars of cattlo 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 littler stronger The market on bulls veal 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 slonally they sold a shade lower Therq 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 tho quality was good and no more than steady where It 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 tho 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 yesterdays general mar ket As the morning advanced the mar ket did not Improve and the close was slow and weak The bulk of the good hogs sold from 745 to 750 and a fewj loads went from that up to 770 The packing grades went largelv from 740 to 745 BHEEP Quotations for

VALUATION AND SMALL AMOUNT IN PROPORTION TO WHAT IS ACTUALLY OWNED The report of the Auditor of Public Accounts to the Governor of the State of Nebraska for 1900 shows that the following articles were returned for taxation in the State and on those articles which are reported separately tho value per article The statement comprises the following Total Value Returned in State Steam Engines 5 199750

Tools and Implements W W W W W W 268367 If the foregoing was a statement intended to be pub lished in the comic papers it possibly might be of value but as this is a business statement reported officially by the Auditor of State the figures appear ridiculous The details of some of these valuations are comical when we find that 5691 people who live in Greeley County only had 75 watches or clocks worth 50 cents each and that the 10535 residents of Dixon County owned but 36 watches and clocks worth 125 each it makeB a person think that to these residents of those counties Time is no object The 9300 billiard tables in Franklin County and the 5440 tables in Lincoln County and the 380 tables in Sherman County must be used for some business purpose It certainly could not be a pleasure to play billiards on that class of tables And the 109 seamstresses in Deuel County who used 98 cent sewing machines must have had the patience of Job Pianos are supposed to be a Returned to

think of the 490 ones which were used in Perkins Count- and the 500 pianos which are used in Keith Loup and McPherson Counties This is but an example of the valuations re turned on all that class of personal property throughout the State It does appear that In case such property should be taxed at all some more equitable valuation should be placed upon it by the assessors Of all this list of
