H V’ w Mrs. Joseph Lacelle, 124 Bronson St, Ottawa, East, Ontario, Canada, writes: “I suffered with backache and headache for over nine months and nothing relieved me until I took Peruna. This medicine is by far better than any other medicine for these troubles. A few bottles relieved me of my miserable, halfdead, half-alive condition. ‘7 am now in good health, have neither ache nor pain, nor have I had any for the past year. If every suffering woman would take Peruna, they would soon know its value and never be without it.” Mrs. M. Kliner, 2648 E. 36th St, S. E, Cleveland, Ohio, writes: “I am enjoying good health since taking your medicine. I had suffered for a good many years previous to taking Peruna, and ever since I can say that I do not know what headacheorneuralgia Is. I can most assuredly say that anybody afflicted with catarrh in any form can be cured by taking Peruna.”

Indianapolis, Ind., Sept. 29.—(Special to Daily Democrat)—The house killed one of Governor Hanly's pet bills today when by a vote of 33 to 43 they decided to indefinitely postpone consideration of the night riders bill, which provides for secret service men to stop the raids if they should ever occur in southern Indiana. It developed that the tobacco trust was fighting for this bill, and when the fact was rumored among the law makers this caused several to make up their minds to vote against it. Representative Slimp read a list of Spencer county people who favored the bill, and when asked if an attorney for the tobacco trust had not furnished the list he admitted he had. Representative Cravens defended the American Society, saying the members were reputable citizens and their opinions entitled to fair consderaton. Following this the vote was taken, resulting as stated above and the house then suspended rules and passed the Southeastern Insane Hospital appropriation and legalized the contract with Pulse & Porter. This put them in a position to adjourn today, which they will probably do. The senate has been ready to adjourn for several days and have been waiting on the house.

Mrs. Anice Wilder, of Monmouth, gave a supper last evening as a farewell to her cousin, Miss Merle Barkley, who leaves next week for Foit Morgan, Cal., where she will make her home. Those who attended the supper were the Misses Merle Barkley, Hazel Beatty, Belle Wilder, Messrs. Ben Johnson. Dwight Wilder and Frank Treap, of Fort Wayne. Miss Merle will accompany her mother, Mrs. John A. Barkley, of Union township to Colorado, hoping that the change of climate will prove beneficial to the health of the latter. In the spring Mr. Barkley and the remainder of the family will join them, and will probably make that country their permanent home.
