J* ■ i i WOMEN TALK TO WOMEN About Pe-ru-na. mm. m& m m : y m MRS. McGOUGH. Depressed Feellnf Mre. M. McGotiRh, 219 W.53rd street, New York, N. Y., writes: “1 gladly add my mite of praise to Pernna for what it has done for me. Two years ago a depressed feeling took hold of me. My back and aides ached continually. My stomach got out of order so that at times I could not hold a glass of cold water. 1 didn’t like to eat, afraid that my stomach would get sick. 1 have been using Peruna for the three f iat months and now 1 feel as well as ever did. My atomach la as strong as ever and my nervous troubles have disappeared 1 keep recommending Peruna to my friends who are troubled as I was, and I have been thanked for doing so ” MRS. mm zmm ■jipj'* WOOERS. Mrs, Wilda Mcoers, R. F. D. 1, Lents, Ore., member Order of Wash ington, writes: “For the past four years I was a wretched woman suffering with troubles peculiar to my sex, cansing severe backache and bearing down pains and leaving me so weak and weary that it was only with dif ficulty that I was able to attend to my household duties. I used differ ent remedies and injections, but found no relief until 1 had tried Peruna. Within two weeks there was a complete change for the better ami in less than three months I was a well and happy woman and all the praise la due to Peruna. ” MRS. NELSON Headache and Backache. Mrs. Tressie Nelson, 609 N. 6th Ave. t Nashville, Tenn., writes: “As Peruna has done me a world of good, 1 feel in duty bound to tell of it, in hopes that it may meet the eye of some woman who has suffered as I did. For five years I really did not know what a perfectly well day was, and if I did not have headache, 1 had backache or a pain somewhere and really life was not worth the effort 1 made to keep going. “A good friend advlaed me to use Peruna and 1 was glad to try anything, and I am very pleased to say that six bottles made a new woman of me and 1 have no more pains and life looks bright again.” The above testimonials represent actual experience of every-day life. They are the truthful utterances of women who have been ill and have found a reliable remedy in Peruna. It means a great deal to the women of America who have at hand a remedy capable of performing such cures. Nervousness, backache, dyspepsia, headache, melancholy, bearing down pains. All these and a host of other symptoms are relieved by Peruna. At least this is what the women say. They have no object in saying such things, except to render truthful testimony to their suffering sisters. The reader will note by reading these testimonials that in most cases other remedies were tried, doctors w?re consulted, and finally Peruna came to their rescue and made them well again. Peruna is making such cures every day. It is the testimony of the people that has made Peruna so justly famous Suffered Thirteen Years. • Mre. Anna Munden, Hollygrove, Ark., writes: “I suffered with female troubles for thirteen years. “I saw an advertisement of your Peruna and bought one bottle and lie- fore I had taken it all I could get out of bed and walk about. “After taking three bottles I was as well and hearty as ever and gained in llcsb. 1 would not be without it.” Headache and Deafness. Mrs. Mary K. Sampson, Londonderry, N. H., writes: “I had terrible headaches, both ears run and I was nervous all the time, was deaf in one ear for thirty years. I took six bottlesof Peruna andonnof Manalin, and am happy to say that it is the best medicine that 1 ever heard of. I am not so nervous, my appetite is good, every thing I eat Hgr«*-« with me, and I am XeeLug better in every way.” A Severe Cold. Miss Marie Calvin, 927 Main street, Cincinnati, Ohio, writes: “I caught a cold coming home from an evening party and'as I did not pay particular attention to it, I quickly be came worse and found myself in a serious condition. “I took Peruna and it brought me im mediate relief. Within a week J waa cured and now whenever I fee! badly Peruna will set things right ” LETTERS OF ADMINISTRATION. State of South Carolina. County of Cherokee. By J. B.

The Crane, The crane eats small fish and nothing else that I know of. I killed one two or three years ago and cut it open and found fifty-four fish inside. They were about one inch long and there were a lot that were decayed which I could not connt. The crane is worse than a fish hawk because he catches large fish that will make a person two or three meals. I have killed two cranes since I have lived In this country. They measured fire feet and nine Inches from tin to tip. I have bee n In this country eight years this fall, and have killed ton hawks and one hoot owl (sparrow hawks not counted). I protect the birds and fish all I can and catch and kill all I can in the hunting and Ashing season. , A Subscriber. Lords All.

Miss Mary Campbell of Birmingham, Ala., Took the Initiative—Approved by Naval Officere, Who Believe Such a Society Would Be America's Burke's Peerage For Women. The Society of Navy Sponsors now being organized will be one of the most interesting and exclusive in the United States, says a Birmingham (Ala.) correspondent of the New York World. In Its ranks will be nun.tiered the daughters of governors, senators, congressmen, wives of naval officers and many of the most beautiful wo men In the United States, each sponsor having been selected on account of the social prominence of her family, Its political Importance, as well as for her own rank in the list of national beauties. Every woman who has dashed a bot tle of sparkling wine over the prows of a ship of the United States navy Is eligible to the society, and from time to time others w’ho act as sponsors will be admitted. There are 100 women who are eligible to such a society. Application to the navy department has revealed the fact that no official record of sponsors has been kept. The task of obtaining the names aud ad dresses of eligible women has been undertaken by a group of navy spon sors, who are anxious to lie supplied with a complete record. When it was found that the navy department was unable to give an official record, In quiries were made of government offi cials, representatives In congress and other prominent folk. Navy sponsors from one end of the continent to the other are In communication. A list of eligible women Is now being prepared, although the complete record will hard ly be obtained until the society Is well organized. A meeting of navy spon sors will be held In Washington this fall. From the far south came the sug gestion to organize a society of women who have christened the nation’s war ships. Miss Mary Campbell of Bir mingham, Ala., who broke a bottle of champagne over the cruiser Birming ham at Its launching In Fore river last spring, has taken the initiative. From the Interchange of letters between this southern girl and one from the north the Society of Navy Sponsors had Its Inspiration As sponsor of the Salem, the sister ship of the Birmingham, Miss lorna Plnnoek of Massachusetts wrote a congratulatory note to Miss Campbell on the successful launching of that vessel. "May we trust.” wrote Miss Plnnoek. "that these two ships—the Salem and the Birmingham—will long carry- the stars and stripes and be em blematical of the friendship and love of the north and the south.” Miss CamplMll’s reply was most cor dial and enthusiastic. “Can we not organize a society of sponsors of the United States navy 7” she wrote Miss Plnnoek. “From the pleasant asso ciation and comradeship that should grow out of it we would contribute our mite to the development of onr navy and to the furthering of the good feel lug which should pervade all sections of our country.*’ were some of the pa triotic sentiments expressed bv the young sponsor. The suggestion reached Washington. Naval officers were delighted that a movement had lieen started to organ ize .i society of women who had stood sponsors for American warships. The navy regarded Itself fortunate In hav ing the eo-opemtlon of so many lienu- tlful young women at the hundred or more lannehlngs of the grim destroy ers. Navy people expressed the opin ion that such a society would he Amer ica’s Burke’s Peerage for the feminine sex. The approval of the navy was equivalent to tin* successful launching of a battleship, and national social in terest has now become centered in the plans of the navy sponsors. Many of t sponsors are eligible to tbe several other patriotic societies In the United States. As members of the Daughters of the American Revolu tion they are Interested in preserving w ar records and establishing the claims of hundreds of women who are eligible to this organization. The Colonial Dames of America also numbers many navy sponsors who are direct descend ants of colonial governors. The south has Its Daughters of the Confederacy. Claims In other societies are eatab- Usbed through lineal descendants, but the Society of Navy Sponsors will be distinct In its eligibility clause. Not through tbe patriotic role of an an cestor will Its members be elected, but for the individual part that she has played In the history of her country. Admiral Dewey has warmly Indorsed the object of the society. He has written Miss Campbell of his sincere Interest and belief that the society will bring about lasting and profitable friendships l>etween residents In every state of the Union. While a complete record of eligible w-omen has not yet been obtained. Miss Campbell's effort to fonnd the society has been rewarded by a partial list. In active co-operation are Miss Pln noek of Massachusetts, Miss Rproull of Pennsylvania and Miss Herrled of South Dakota. Other eligible w-omen whose names have been famished Miss Campbell show that the society will be organized with representative* from many states. FOR SALE—Hoaae and lot. orvfll exchange for farm.
