Mr. a A. Doollttle. 268 East 2nd street. Corning. N. T., writes:
"I cannot speak too highly of Peruna, as a tonlo and catarrh cur in what
,ver form, or wherever located. ' I
j '1 had a treat deal of trouble witu my bowels and Peruna cured me.
"My son was very low with catarrh of tit stomach and after doctoring; for
seven weeks he was worse than when we began. The doctor did not seem to
to understand his case. ,
'' "He commenced using Peruna, which helped him right along and he was
soon at work again.
, MI have recommended ?mu to several of my friends, who have been af
ffllcted and they have been cured." 1
D TORINO the month of September the
drinking water, especially of cities, Is
apt to be polluted.
To supply water to a large number of
' people, rivers and lakes' must necessarily
be drawn upon.
v These places become more or less stag
nant during September. Hence the water
ts impure. t
The result Is a prevalence of Typhoid
feres and bowel diseases,
V The natural and surest remedy Is to
' change ' from polluted to pure drinking
water.
This cannot always be done, however.
Many people are wholly dependent upon
. such drinking water as the city may
furnish.
Their systems are therefore contami
nated with disease germs. Some of the
people so contaminated fall easy prey
to disease. Such people are those who
' happen to be In a weakened condition,
n wkn are nfrnrtna- from slla-ht catar
rhal conditions of the mucous membranes
of the bowels.
Therefore It follows that In cases where
the use ' of contaminated water Is un
avoidable, 'the next best thing Is to put
the system In such a condition as to re
sist the action of disease germs.

AFFAIRS AT SOUTII OMAHA
Jurj in Cats for Sunday Liquor Selliar
Fails to Acree.
SEWER CONTRACTORS ARE SATISFIED
Have Flo Objection to fee of Ftela
forced Coacret Except is Taa
aela, aad There Plata Cos.
erete Is to Bo I'sed.
The police force of the city and the city
attorney yesterday made an attempt to
secure the conviction of J. O. IJ.co on a
charge of having sold or given away liquor
on Sunday, September t. There was but
one witness for the prosecution and the
defendant was the only one representing
Ms side of the ease. H. B. Fleharty pros
ecuted the case and the defense employed
the services of A. S. Ritchie. In the evi
dence IJaco tdmltted having given away
liquor In his place of business, but denied
that he had sold any. Mr. Ritchie repre
sented that the South Omsha police force
had an old grudge against the Jetter
Brewing company and always made It a
point to attack the men who were rutanlng
a Jetter saloon. He minimized the of
fense of Llsco by saying It was the same
as If two farmers should meet and one
should give to the other a bottle of beer
on a Sunday. The prosecution came back
by reading the statute In the case. The
Jury then retired for the verdict, which
was not rendered at all. At B p. m. they
agreed to disagree and went home. The
Jurymen were J. P. Auer, Wiley Becket,
W. F. Burdlck, E. T. Miller. F. I. Fassett
and J. M. Tanner. It Is said from reports
that two only were standing for a verdict
of guilty on the confession by LJsco, while
four favored acquittal.
Contractors are attaned.
There appears to be but little founda
tion for the report that Contractors Han
non dt Craig were dissatisfied with the reso
lution of the council favoring the use of
reinforced concrete In the construction of
sewers.' Such has been a current report.
Naturally the contractors favored leaving
the matter open to their own choice, for
they would not thus be bound so tight by
the furnishers of the iron used In the re
inforcement of the sewer. The council In
the estimates reserved tie right to desig
nate the reinforced sys'em If It wished.
The contractors entered one objection, how
ever, which Is " really valid. That Is,
since the sections of the pipe must be
made before going Into the trenches. It
will be difficult to use them where any
tunneling is to be done. The engineer
says tt will there be within his discretion
to admit the use of the plain concrete
Instead. This is put in under a different
system In the tunnels and the contractors
are apparently satisfied.
Among some citizens, however, the deslg
nation, reinforced concrete, has been looked
upon with suspicion, for what valid reasons
is unknown. One citizen was heard to re
mark, "There never was a contract which
was not Jobbed wherein It was permitted
and a change of material wss accepted,
The specifications should have designated
the exact kind of material in advertising
for the bids." The fact is the engineer's
specifications did designate three kinds of
material, brick, concrete and reinforced
concrete, and the contractors regulated
their bids to the possibility of a choloe of
any. of the three.
Boy May Lose aa Eye.
Otis Marling, the 6-year-old son' of C
H. Marling, 914 North Twenty-second
street, met with an accident Thursday
afternoon which may result In the loea
of one of his eyes. While playing during
the afternoon with William Green's little
girl, he was looking on Interestedly while
she was trying to cut a string with a pen
knife. The string severed with a jerk and
the point of the blade entered the cornea
of his eye. Dr. C. M. Schlndel was called
st once. The family are hoping to save the
eye,' as the InclBlon was not deep enough
to cause a complete collapse of the organ.
Whether the sight will be recovered de
pends much on the manner of the healing
of the wound and the scar which may be
left. No operation Is thought to be pos
stble, which would add to the chances of
recovery. Efforts are bent to keep the
organ from Infection and to allow of
natural healing. The doctor, while he has
not expressed great hope, thinks the sight
may be saired.
Iowa ' Maa Detained.
H. A. Whistler of Farragut, la., caused
the detention of his brother, F. E. Whistler,
by the city police. The brother says there
Is nothing chargable against the man, but
he left home and his wife under circum
stances which might suggest mental des
pondency. He was concerned for the safety
of the man and the considerable amount of
money he was supposed to be carrying.
Also for the disposition of a team of
mules he drove from his home. The miss
ing man was discovered by the South
Omaha police by means of a registered
letter sent to the South Omaha postomce
as a decoy. F. E. Whistler left his home,
In company with another man, of whom
the brother was ' suspicious, and against
whom he charged undue Influence over the
mind of the missing relative. At. the jail It
was found that F. E. Whistler had de
posited tlKS In Xii Omaha savings bank, and
that he had some chsnge besides. It
supposed thst be wss carrying $1,600 or
more. He was not placed under arrest
but simply held' until his brother should
arrive.

From a cauae that could not be de

SYNOD TARES TABITHA HOME

Oharga of Linooln Inrtitute,
WILL MEET AT GRAND ISLAND NEXT YEAR
Sidney and Hardy Coatestants for
Beat Coaventlon Present Synod
Closes Its Deliberations
aaday Algal.
By a rising rote, with no one dissenting,
the Nebraska English Lutheran synod, Sat
urday morfflng, decided to take over the
property and management of Tabltha home,
a charitable institution at Lincoln, and
this committee was appointed with power
to negotiate the deal: C. B. Bcherk and. A.
J. Peters of Li;coln, C. H. B. . Lewis of
Wilbur, 1. E. Ilum-non of Omaha and W.
H. Hogrefe of Stella.
Tha synod dtcided to meet at Grand Is
land next year, after a heated controversy.
In which Grand Island, Hardy and Sidney
were the contestants. The following were
elected delegates to the national conven
tion to be held in gunburg. Pa., next May:
Clergymen, M. L. Melick and J- E. Hum
man of Omaha, J. A, Lowe of Beatrice, L.
L. Lipe of West Point, M. L. Kunkleman
of Rising City; laymen, A. T. Peters of
Lincoln, W. H. Hogrefe of Stella. T. B.
Smith and J. F. Wllhelmy of Omaha and
Andrew Tost of North Platte.
- Committee to Tako Home.
Tho committee appointed to take over
Tabltha home will first meet with similar
committees from other synods which cars
to co-operate In the proposition and will
attend the German synod at Wilbur next
week to get a committee appointed there.
It has power to employ sttorneys to look
up the deeds to the property and arrange
all the matters Incident to the transfer.
The synod will assume all the liabilities of
the Tabltha home, amounting to some tlO,-
000, and will take over the property, worth
not less than $60,000. andSthe legacies, which
are yet due, amounting to tl2,0u0. It Is the
ultimate hope of the Nebraska synod to
turn the home over to the national synod
as a home for old people and children, to
be conducted In connectlor with a modern
hospital. Owing to the big fight made
against the management of ths home by
the Rev. S. Z. Batten and others In Lin
coln, It has run down some, but can be
put In good repair, so Dr. Peters said, at
very little expense. Rev. Henry Heiner,
who founded the home and who spent a
lifetime maintaining It, was anxious that
the synod take It and was willing to give
to the synod bis lifework In order that the
home would be able to accomplish that for
which he founded It

Platte, talked of the work of ths board
