PRESBYTERIAN PASTOR
PRAISES
First Presbyterian Church of Greensboro Ga anfl Its Pastor and Elder
THE day was when men of promi
nence hesitated to crivo their 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

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 lam now
enjoying better health than I hajte 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 liar tman 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
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

STATEMENT OF PERSONAL PROPERTY RETURNED FOR TAXATION IN
THE STATE OF NEBRASKA FOR THE YEAR 1900 SHOWING LOW
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

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

ury but we wonder wnar tne neighbors 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

can be definitely checked up by the figures given the Cen
