hat at tb rate caaes are now being dis
posed of tha docket will be brought prac
Ically up to date by April 1, 1903, the
J me the terms of the commissioners ex
lira. Tli court alone, before the commls
llooers were appointed, decided or acted
ipon about forty cases during each work
ng month, but the new filings Invariably
txeeeded that number ao that the number
)f case pending kept growing larger and
arger. With the assistance of the com
elssloners the court now dlsposea of over
ISO caaea each month.
When the commissioners began their la
bors there were 1.843 cases pending. In
cluding thosa under advisement. Since
that time there have been 698 new cases
idded to tb docket, making a total of
1.441. During the first ten months of the
Commission 1.601 cases were disposed or,
leaving 940 cases pending. Including these
inder advisement. At the average rate of
Sling It la likely that 475 new cases will
be added to the docket before December 81,
ahlrh, with th 940 pending, will make
1.415.
"If would be unreasonable to expect the
;ourt to clear the docket entirely by the
time the commissioners' term expire," said
in attorney today, "but It-Is more than
Mkely that they will have everything dis
posed of that la filed prior to January first.
This will leave the court three months be
hind, and at the rate cases have been dis
posed of In the past the court and three
commissioners ought to be able to attend
to all litigation from that time on."

Dr. M. C. Ore la one of the physicians
who endorse reruns. In a letter written
from 613 Jones street, Ssn Francisco. Cal ,
be says:
"There is a grott objection on tha
part of the practicing physician to
advocate patent medicines. nut
when any one medicine cures hun
dreds of people, it demonstrates Its
own value and does not need th
endorsement of the profession.
"Peruna has performed so many
wonderful cures In San Kranclsco
that I am convinced that it Is a vaL
uahle remedy. 1 hnve frequently
advised Its use for women, us 1 find
It Insures regular and painless
menstruation, cures leucorrhoe
aud ovarian troubles, an J builds up
the entire Bystesa. I also consider
It oae of the finest cntarrh reme
dies I know of. I heartely endorse
your medicine." v

"I hsve been a sufferer from ovarian
trouble for over four years, which caused
tne excrurlstlng pains st times snd life
looked very dreary to me. My family rhy
slclsn and other doctors prescribed for
me, but failed dismally In relieving tne,
but I am pleased to stste that after years
of suffering I hsve been entirely cured
by your women's friend, reruns."

afflicted with female trouble, (pelvic ca
tarrh.) I doctored with several skillful
physicians, but kept getting worse unt'l
I becsme bedfast. I wsa In this cond'tion
sbout two years, under the attendance of
four physicians. I got no better during
this time. Finally, looking over Dr. Hart
msn's female book I concluded I would
write for sdvlce. I am not sorry I did so.
I owe my life to Dr. Hartman snd Peruna.
My friends and neighbors never txpeclid
to see me well again." Mary F. Bar

This title Includes a number of the
most distressing affections to which hu
manity is liable. The symptoms set up
by the various phases of female weakness
are very numerous, and no two cases ex
actly alike.
The most prominent and universal
symptoms are bearing down pains, drag
ging sensations In abdomen, backache,
leucorrhoea, sleeplessness, dizziness, loss
of appetite and painful or suppressed or
profuse menstruation.
For all of these symptoms as well as for
the condition that causes them, Peruna
is a reliable specific, and at once relieves
every case. It will not fall In a short
time to permsnently benefit these derange
ments. It will, finally, entirely cure a
great majority of them after all else has
failed.
If you do not derive 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 ad
vice gratis.
