Brockman, 813 Meade street, Appleton, Wis„ wntes: *7 have never had a return of the catarrh, which had made me ao mis erable and unhappy before I began taking Peruna. *7 would not be without it in the house, no v. “I have a baby boy, two years old, to whom / give Peruna for a cold, and.my husband also takes Peruna. “I thank you and wish you well.’'—-Mrs. F. Brockman. Peruna should be kept in the house all the time. Don’t wait until the cnild is sick, then send to a dru^ store. Bilt, have Peruna on hand—accept no sub stitute. Children are especially liable to acute catarrh. Indeed, most of the affections of childhood are catarrh. All forms of sore throat, quinsy, croup, hoarseness, laryngitis, etc., are but dii erent phases of catarrh. Pe*ru-na Contains No Narcotics. One reason why Peruna has found per manent use in so many homes is that it contains no narcotic of any kind. Peruna, if taken according to printed directions, is perfectly harmless. It can be used any length of time without acquiring a drug habit. It does not produce temporary results, but it is per manent in its effect. It has no bad effect upon the system, and gradually eliminates catarrh by re moving the cause of catarrh. No Doctor Required. Mr. Edward Otto, 927 De Soto street, St. Paul, Minn., writes: “I cannot say enough for Peruna. It has done great work in my family, es pecially for my oldest boy. We had doctored with three or four different doctors and they did not seem to do him any good. “We gave up hopes of cure, and so did they, but we pulled him through on Peruna. “We had several doctors and they said they could do no more for him, so we tried Peruna as a last resort, and that did the work. Since then we keep It in the house all the time, and no doctor Is required.’’—Edward Otto. There are a multitude of homes where Peruna has been used off and on for twenty years. Such a thing could not be possible if Peruna contained any narcotics. The Benefit Which the Children of the United States Have Received From Pe-ru-na Can Never Be Put Into Words. The chronic ailments it has prevented, the suffering it has mitigated, will never be fully recorded. But at least this much can be said that the coming gener..uon owes a great debt to Peruna, for it is in the tender years of youth that slight ailments are liable to develop into lasting disease, thus blasting the whole career of the individual. The mothers who are bringing up their children to-day to believe in Peru na are speaking from their experience. These children brought up to believe in Peruna from the start, will, when they become heads of families them-1 selves, use Peruna with unquestioning faith. J FARMER and JON. * '**0' ml !§•# mill ■ itM A Child’s Life Saved. Mr. G. H. Farmer, New Martinsville, W. Va., writes: “Our little son, Harry, is well and healthy now and we think if we do as you directed us, he will keep his health and grow strong. “We know that our little son’s life was sa ved by your wonderful medicine, Peruna, and we shall always praise Peruna an^ use It In our family when needed. “Should we have any more catarrhal trouble in our family, we shall always write to you for treatment.” —G. H. Farmer. Medical Advice. For free medical advice, address Pr. S. B. Hartman, President of the Hart man Sanitarium, Columbus, Ohio. All ci rrespoudence held strictly con- fidentiah Mrs. J. O. Sterling, 133 Brown Avenue, Norfolk, Va., writes: “My little l>oy, Meredith, suf fered with indigestion so badly he could not eat anything without it making him very sick, so I thought (as many others have) that I would try Peruna, and it worked like a charm. “Sow he eats anything he wishes, and I would not be with out It for anything. “My other little boy, Alfred, two and a half years old, has taken it and received as much benefit from Peruna as his brother. “I hope my testimonial may be of some benefit to others, as I feel as though I cannot praise It enough. ’ ’ —Mrs. J. C. Sterling. Mr. Howard Andrew Sterner, Muddy Creek, Pa., writes: “I have Peruna in my house all the time and won’t be without it. It is good for children when they take a cold or croup. It cured my baby boy of croup. “I have introduced Peruna into six families since I received your last letter, and four have seen relief already.” —Howard Andrew Sterner. Pe-ra-na Protect* the Entire Household. As soon as the value of Peruna is appreciated by every household, both as a preventive and cure, tens of thousands of lives will be saved, and hundreds of thousands of chronic, lingering ca&ee of catarrh will be prevented. When Sickness Comes to the Little Ones It Is the Mother Who Chiefly Suffers. She suffers even more than the child who happens to be sick. Ilei sympathy is deeper than that of any other member of the family. The mother looks forward with dread to the torrid heat of summer, thinking of her children and the many liabili ties to disease that are before them. Spring and summer are sure to bring ailments, especially among the little folks. It does not take a mother very long to discover that Peruna is the best friend she has in time of illness among the children. A Multitude of Mothers Have discovered that Peruna is their stand-by, and that in many of the aU- meuts of spring and snmmer to which the children are subjected, Peruna is the remedy that will generally quickly relieve. • Whether it is spring fever or etomach derangement, whether it is indigestion or bowet disease, a catarrhal congestion of the mucous surfaces is the cause. Peruna quickly relieves this condition of the mucous membranes. Its opera tion is prompt, the children do not dis like to take the medicine, it lias no dele terious effects in any part of the body. It simply removes the cause of the disagreeable symptoms and restores the health. Every mother ^ho has not tried Peruna in her family should familiarize herself with Dr. Hartman’s booklet, The Ills of Life. This booklet should be in every family. It gives most val uable advice as to the use of Peruna for the various catarrhal diseases so general to-day. Peruna is a household remedy for all catarrhal ailments of winter and sum mer, acute or chronic. The mothers all over the United State* are the best friends that Peruna has. The Mother* Hold Pe-ru-na in High Esteem, Not only because it has cured them of their various ailments, but because it ,promptly rescues the children from the throes and grasp of catarrhal dis eases. We have in onr files many testimo nials frommothers whose children have been cured by Peruna. However, the large majority of mothers who nse Peruna, we never hear from. But we do hear from a great number of mothers who are so overjoyed at some special good they have received from Peruna that they cannot restrain their enthusiasm. They are anxious to share these benefits witn other mothers. ADDRESS BY DR. CARLISLE f Before the County Summer School at Spartanburg. Spartanburg, June 27.—The faculty and attendants of the Spartanburg and Cherokee county summer school and a number (if friends were privileged Wednesday to hear an address by Dr. James H. Carlisle at the Converse street school building. The subject of Dr. Carlisle’s address was ‘’Figures,” and in his character istic manner, pointed, practical and concise, he impressed his hearers with the importance of figures. Among the manv interesting things said by the distinguished educator was the reason advanced for the decimal arithematic. Tfhis was accounted for by the human being having ten fingers, and all count ing. either by savages or civilized peo- { de. begins with the fingers. If. said he speaker, people were born, as a fverv few are. with six fingers instead jot five, there would be a duo-decimal /system—the numerical basis being jjwelve instead of ten. The word digit is from the Greek and means fingers. 'It is singular, also, that there is a similarity in the two words fingers and figures; this, however, is a mere co incidence. The speaker gave an interesting history and explanation of the Roman and Arabic systems of enumeration. The Arabic was the most perfect way of counting devised, and the invent ors of this system are not known. It has been traced from the Arabs to India and from there to the people of a country still farther East, and it is not positively known whether the sys tem was devised by man or not—it mav have been the product of some nation of central Europe. Think of a soldier coming home from the Crusade in the middle ages, bearing in his pockets something more precious and valuable than all of the Oriental gold and jewels and precious stones—the Arabic figures. The importance of figures as the / universay key to humanity was aptly illustrated. If you land today in Eu rope, Asia, or anv country, you might shout out “19%” and the natives would gaze in astonishment or unintelligi ble wonder. But if you write down the figures 1906 the person will grasp It at once. There are two great features that give the Arabic figures superiority over all others. Each figure has its place value, and the naught, which mean* nothing, fills up a space. Tne simplicity and power of the naught were clearly stressed. A great artist once said, when asked * the reason whv his paintings were so wonderful and natural, that he mixed brains with hi* colors. Take a little school bov at his desk, and the teacher will call out. “Tommy, what nre you doing there?” “Just cipher ing.” Not studying. "Let the child mix brains with his ciphering,” wa* the emphatic admonition of the speaker. A striking point brought out was that the figures 1 and naught can make any calculation, and that the pronoun I and the figure 1 are the same. He threw out a gentle hint to the instructor* to beware of the big I in their contact with students and younger people. Figures can make or mar character. In conclusion the doctor said that when death has come and the teach er is laid away, about all the average passer-bv scans on the plain marble tombstone is the two dates. Then people ask-. “What was he worth?” as though the value of a human life, no matter how poor, obscure or humble the individual, could be measured by the figures. The Arabic figures, as wonderful, as comprehensive as great and powerful a system as he clearly demonstrated it to be. was powerless to make such an estimate. The address was very helpful and inspiring, and the auditors feel much indebted to Dr. Carlisle for his words of wisdom and encouragement, which will tend to incite the teachers to a higher responsibility of their duties and a more conscientious and Pains taking effort on their part towards the performance of the same. HOPE IS AGAIN SHATTERED. CEDAR SPRINGS INSTITUTE. $6,000 FIRE AT CARTHAGE. WEEKLY WEATHER BULLETIN POLICEMAN KING ACQUITTED. Aiken Officer. Who Killed Resisting Negro Vindicated bv Jury. Aiken. June 27.—The case of Police man T. E. King, indicted for the mur der of Ellis Anerum. colored, was tried yesterday and without leaving their seats the jury found a verdict of not guilty. It was proved beyond a doubt that King killed the negro in self-de fense. Anerum was killed in a negro tene ment house near the passenger depot. He broke into t^i* room of Julia Hol land. a negro woman, and attempted an assault upon her. A negro named George Jackson testified that be heard the negro woman scream and heard a scuffle in her room. He ran to the front door of the house and called for* a policeman. Policeman Cuto follow ed by Policeman King answered the call. Mr. Cuto told the negro in the room that he was going to arrest him. and the negro answered that “no damned man could arrest him." An- crum came into the hall and blew out a lamp and picked it up and advanc ed ujkjd the officers with the lamp up raised to strike them. Mr. Cuto fired first and his shot not taking effect. Mr. King fired the shot that resulted fatally for Anerum. Anerum bore a bad repiftation in Aiken and from the evidence in the case Mr. King ha,] the right to shoot him. Mr. King wag not a regular member of the police force but was serving .a* a sub-policeman at the time of the shooting. Parris-Cash. Monday evening at 8:30 at the home of the bride’s parents.

Brother of Miss Hood Wires That He Has No Trace of Sister. Asheville. June 20.—Miss Josephine Hood, the missing Asheville bride who is believed to have married “Lord Douglas” or Cavendish, has not yet been found. Last night a message was received by relatives here from Edwin Hood, a brother of the missing girl, in which it was stated that Miss Hood had been located and asted for a photograph of the girl. Upon the receipt of this message it was thought that at least some trace of the young woman had at last been secured and the friends and relatives were accord- inglv rejoiced. A message was sent to Edwin Hood asking for particulars and another message was received to day from the brother stating that his sister had not been located; that his information of her finding was based on a clipping in a newspaper stating that the young bride had been located. This clipping was the one that had to' do with the locating of a desertqd Asheville girl In Santa A.ia. Cai., which was at first thought to be Miss Hood. Based on ^he belief that the young woman found deserted at Santa Ana was Miss Hood the Asheville cor- respondent of the Associated Press sent out a message from here to that news-gathering organization saying that Miss Hood had been found in San ta Ana in poverty. The message of Mr. Edwin Hood at New Iberia today again shattered the hopes of friends and relatives that Miss Hood is alive, and surrounds the * affair in deeper mystery than ever. It has now been more than six months since Miss Hood married one John C. Cavendish at New Iberia and not a word has been had from her since the day of her weddiug. The fact has been almost conclusively established that the wo man deserted at Santa Ana is not Miss Hood. That young woman, so infor mation goes, has been living in Santa Ana for about two years. i i Five Pupils Given Diplomas and Thir teen Others Receive Certificates. Spartanburg, June 27.—The closing exercises of the 58th year of Cedar Springs institute, the State school for the blind, dumb and deaf, were held this morning at 11 o’clock. The school is situated ^t the terminal of the ma cadamized road leading toward Glenn Springs, about six miles from this city. A large crowd assembled to see and hear the exercises by the pupils. A conservative estimate places the number of visitors at about 2.000. nearlv half of whom were able to get in the auditorium. Five pupils received diplomas, all of whom were in the department of the deaf. These are: Mary Caroline Mc- Caslan, Rose Jane Cooper and Nathan B. Hardwiok. Besides these there are thirteen who received certificates for eight years’ work, which means that they have spent as much time in the institute as the government furnishes for the institution. By special ar rangement they may be granted two more years at the expiration of which time they will get diplomas. Those taking certificates are as follows: Misses Mobley. Union county; Crisp. Oconee county; Recter. Greenville county; Long. Richland county: Ed wards. A., and Edwards. B.. Saluda county: Hutson. Lancaster county; Messrs. Hay, Spartanburg county; Green. Kershaw county; Livingston. Lexington county: Smoaks. Spartan burg county; Barby, Sumter county, and Jones. Saluda county. An interesting programme was car ried out which pleased very much the members of the large audience. All in all the commencement was the mo“t successful ever held at this in stitution and the large crowd came hack to the city well pleased with the school and the work done there. Flames Destroy Livery Stables and Valuable Furniture. Carthage, N. C., June 27.—G. C. Graves’ livery stable, with its con tents. and Dr. W. W. Fry’s residence across the street from the stable, were burned here this morning at 3 o’clock. The fire had made such headway when discovered that it was impossible to save any of the vehicles or feed which was in the stable. On the second floor of the stable Mr. Graves had about $1,000 worth of new household furni ture which he had just rece’ved for his elegant residence. All of this fur niture and everything else about the stable burned. Seven fine horses were victims of the flames. All of Dr. Fry’s household furniture was saved. The loss to Graves was $5,000, while Fry’s loss is about $1,000. It is hard to de- termine the origin of fire. Injured in a Runaway. Salisbury. June 21,—Mr. Clarence Bernhardt went to Concord last night in answer to a message that his sis ter, Miss Rosalie, had been seriously hurt while out driving yesterday afternon. She was with Mr. Graham Robinson when they met an automo bile that frightened the horse. The animal ran away, throwing both out, after overturning the buggy. Miss Bernhardt w'as hurt by both the shock and the fall. She has just recovered fiom an operation for appendicitis, which made the accident all the more dangerous. Salisbury was uneasy until the news came that she was not dangerously hurt. For the Week Ending 8 A. M. June 25, 1906.
