ADMIRAL'S WORDS CARRY WEIGHT.
REAR-ADMIRAL HICHBORN Is one of the best known
admirals of our nary.
Hla statement concerning Peruna will have much
weight as it goes out into the world.
What he says Is echoed by many other naval officers
of high standing.
WHAT TI1K ADMIRAL SAYS.
Philip Hlchborn. Rear-Admiral United States Navy,
writes from Washington, D. C, as follows:
"After the use of rerun for a short period. I ran
now cheerfully recommend your valuable remedy to
any one who Is in need of an Invigorating tonic"
rhilip Hlchborn.
AX EVKRPRKSEXT FOE.
The soldier and the sailor are especially subject to
catarrh in some form or phase.
Exposed as they are to constant changes, subject as
they are to various vicissitudes, and all kinds of climate,
wet and dry, night and day, they find catarrh to be their
most insidious and everpresent foe.
In the barracks and on the field, Peruna is equally
efficacious.
Taken In time, it will absolutely prevent catching cold.
PE-RU-NA A POSITIVE REMEDY.
After a cold has become established, Peruna will break
it up quicker than an: ther remedy known to man.
Even after a eold has become settled In some organ of
the body Peruna can be relied upon to promptly dispel It.
Peruna will cure catarrh, whether acute or chronic,
but a few doses taken in the first stages of the disease
will be more effective than when the disease has become
chronic.
If you suffer from catarrh in any form do not neglect
it. Take Peruna at once. Delays in such matters are
dangerous.
CHRONIC CATARRH OF THROAT.
"I was troubled with catarrh of the throat particularly,
and suffered considerably as a result thereof for a period of
about five years, and my general health was affected.
SOUGHT CHANGE OF CLIMATE.
"Three years ago I was forced to give up business, and
took up my residence in the western country, looking for
relief in a change of climate as well as a change in the
method of treatment for my ailment.
CURED HY PE-RU-NA.
"After much expense, both here and in the West, I was
Induced by a friend to try Peruna. 1 continued the use of
it for about five weeks, at the end of which time I returned
to New York, both well and happy." Wm. H. Switzer, 325
E. 33rd street. New York City.
USED PE-RU-XA IX HIS FAMILY.
"I have used Peruna in my family with very satisfactory
results for the last two years. Besides I have recommended
it to all whom I think are In need of it.
"I urge all who are afflicted to buy a bottle and begin Its
use at once. I have never heard of any who have used it to
be dissatisfied with the results." Frank W. Harris, box 23,
Basic City, Va., member A. F. & A. M.
A TYPICAL TESTIMONIAL.
Mr. J. H. Galbralth, 390 West Second Ave., Columbus,
Ohio, writes:
"I have been a sufferer of catarrh of the stomach and
kidneys for seven years. Doctors did me no good, and after
taking Peruna for six months, at Intervals, I believe I am
cured. My appetite returned, I sleep well and work every
day. I always have It in the house."
No remedy ever yet devised has received such unstinted
eulogy from so many renowned statesmen and military men
as Peruna.
We have on file thousands of testimonials like those given
above. We can give our readers only a glimpse of the vast
array of endorsements Dr. Hartman is receiving.

funds at the rlose of business September

ether trust funds have a total of $2,074,

funds Is 5.671.63S.S3, of which the perma

secure them for Investment and to that fact
the Increase o more than $300,000 In the
school funds' holdings since December 1
Is charged to a certain extent.
One of the reasons assigned for the fail
ure of the debt to decrease Is the fact that
the Burlington and Union Pacific railways
are withholding conRlderable amounts of
taxes In various counties, pending the de
termination of the suits which are now
before the federal court. The receipts
from all sources will be very light until
the first of the year, when the county
treasurers will begin to make heavy re
mittances or. account of the personal taxes,
which are delinquent December 1. In the
meantime the expenses of the state gov
ernment continue and the state debt will
Increase slightly. However, It Is believed
that the revenue, with the 1 mill special
levy under the Sheldon act, will rapidly
reduce the debt after the first of the year.
Jrane Mrllor's Case.
Today In the supreme court the man
damus case of W. R. Mellor of bherman
county against the county clerk to pre
vent the blanket de:mase In real tate
assessments was submitted. This Is the
case Involving the interpretation of the
amendment to the revenue law adopted
by the last legislature , providing for
changes In the assessments of realty
where the existing figures are unjust. The
county board of Sherman county rtluced
the realty In four townships and Mellor,
who Is the chal-man of tl o State Board
of Agriculture and prominent politically,
with the tacit consent and approval of
the members of the State Board of Equali
satlqn and Assessment, filed an original
mandamus action in the supremo court to
compel a restoration of tho original fig
ures. Can't Appeal from Levy.
Today a brief was filed In the supreme
court by the county convnlsHloners of Lan
caster county In whHh It 1 contemltd that
C. O. Whedon of this city had no If sal
basis for his appeal from the levy of 1004.
It la contended that he was reduced to
two causes of complaint, an appeal from
the amount of the assessment on his pr p
erty, or an appeal o-i tho grout 1 of ron
Uablllty to assessmiTit, but that under
no circumstances can tho discretion of the
county board In making the levy
be questioned, as long as Tliey kejp vlrliln
the fifteen mill limit fixed by the' laws.
Whedon filed an appeal from the levy, al
leging that It was excessive and charging
gross extravagance against county officers.

Thinks He Has Robber.
Detective James Malone claims to have
located one of the men who tried to rob
a Burlington train ten or twelve years
ago at Hyannls. The attempt proved
a water haul, because the train was late
and daylight overtook the robbers before
thvy accomplished their purxjoee. One of
the men was captured and returned to
Wyoming to serve out an unexpired term,
after which he was killed In a fight. The
other man is said to have relatives at
Cambridge, and Malone claims that he
can get him if the railway desires to pros
ecute.

LINCOLN. Oct. 4. iSpedal.) The prin
cipal feature of the meeting of the Ne
braska Federation of Women's clubs today
was an address by Mrs. Piatt Decker of
Denver, president of the general federa
tion. In the morning the reports of officers
we'e received, that of the secretary show
ing there were now 137 clubs affiliated
with the federation.
In the afternoon little business was trans
acted, the delegates making a visit to
the State university farm, where they
were welcomed by the faculty and suit
able responses were made by the club
women. The club women were promised
that next year a building devoted to do
mestic science would be erected at the
state farm.
In the evening a reception to Mrs. Piatt
Decker was tendered by the Grand Army
of the Republic and the Woman's Relief
corps. The reception was at the LJndel
hotel and was largely attended.
Another event of the evening was a mu
sicals at the State university given in
honor of the visiting club women.
Tomorrow will be devoted strictly to
business. One of the principal things will
be the report of the nominating commit
tee. There appears to be no doubt Mrs.
II. M. Bushnell, the present president, will
be re-elected for another term.
Fully 200 of the most representative women
of Nebraska are In session here at the
eleventh annual meeting of the Nebraska
Federation of Women's clubs, 120 delegates
having been registered at the opening ses
sion yesterday afternoon at St. Pauls
Methodist church.
Mrs. Sarah Piatt Decker of Denver,
president of the General Federation of
Women's Clubs, arrived yesterday after
noon and will be the guest of the con
vention during the entire session.
The prediction that there would be no
real Issue at this meeting promises to prove
untrue, as the directory at a preliminary
meeting passed a proposition which will be
presented to the convention providing for
an amendment to the constitution which
will make future state meetings biennial
Instead of annual. As this plan has been
strongly opposed In the past. It will hardly
be carried without a struggle.
The directory further recommended that
district vice presidents be made district
presidents and admitted to the -Hrectoryi
also that adjacent districts combine their
annual conventions when possible and bear
their own expenses.
First Session of Convention.
The convention opened Tuesday afternoon
with an Invocation by Rev. J. W. Jones

Charlotte Cole of Nellgh responded for the
t'lsltlng women.
The address of the state preslier.i, Mrs.
H. M. Bushnell of Lincoln, Included sug
gestions along the broad lines of women's
work. "The federation Idea is drawing
woman to women, that they may aid each
other," she said, and It was of mutual
helpfulness that she spoke.
That hats should be removed was the first
recommendation of the committee on rules
ahd It went Into effect . Immediately. The
appointment of a ' resolutions committee
was also recommended aS a precaution
against the Introduction of undesirable or
unwise discussion In the convention.
Twenty-seven clubs were reported hold
ing membership in the general federation,
eleven of which are in the First and seven
In the Second district.
Mrs. C. E. Nevin presided during a
library session. Miss Edith Bullock, secre
tary of the state traveling library com
mission, spoke briefly.
The rest of the afternoon was given to
club reports, eighteen new clubs being ad
mitted to the federation. Mrs. Decker's
address, along general club lines, being
the feature of the evening.
Mrs. A. L. Sheets of Omaha contributed
a vocal solo and Carl 8teckleberg a violin

MAKES WEAK WOMEN STR0NQ
AND SICK WOMEN WELL,
Forty years ago. Dr. Pierce searched
Katurt's Uibnmlory tot a remedy with
which to supplant the Ignorant and vi
cious methods of treatment, with alco
holic stimulants, then In vogue, and still
too commonly prescribed and advised for
woman's peculiar ailments.
Nature abounds with rooft efficient rem- -edict,
and in Lady's Slipper root. Black
Cohosh root. Unicorn root. Blue Cohosh
root and Golden Seal root. Dr. Plerrs
found medicinal properties, which when
extracted and preserved by the use of
chemically pore glycerine, have proven
most potent in making weak women
strong and sick women well. It contains
no alcohol; Is not a "patent medicine,
nor a secret one either.
"I was suffering with nervous headache,
pains In the back and diiilne, so tht at
times 1 bad to lie, down for boors before I
could raise mr bead. writes Mrs. Manr M
Thoraaa of 137 Winston Street, 1Ot Ancele.
Cal. "After taking the first bottle of 'V
v-irK Pn$eripttan.' boweter, I was so pleased
with the results that 1 kept on taking It until
I was restored to health and streorth. I
shall never be without this great medicine,
and ah ill take a few doaea when 1 do not
fuel etrong."
One of the principal uses of Dr. Pierce's
Favorite Proscription is the preparation
of prospective mothers for the time of
trial and danger that comes w hen a child
it born. The 'Prescription is strength
ening and Invigorating and lessens pain
and danger. It insures the perfect well
being and the perfect health of both
mother and child. Every woman thou Id
know these things before the really needs
to know them. There are many things in
Dr. Pierce's Common Sense Medical Ad
viser, that every woman ought to knew.
