| A Good Word for Peru na. Mrs. S. L. Jewell, R. p. D. i, Freeport, Pa., writes: Having used Peruna myself for many years with beneficial effects, and observing the good it has done others of my acquaintance, I cannot but say a good word in behalf of Peruna.” Keeps Peru na In the House. Mrs. Maria Goertz, Orien ta, Oklahoma, writes: “My husband, children and myself have used your medicines, and we always keep them in the house in case of necessity. I was restored to health by this medicine, and Dr. Hartman’s invaluable advice and books. People ask about me from different places, and are surprised that I can do all of my housework alone, and that I was cured by the doctor of chronic catarrh. My husband was cured of asthma, my daughter of earache and catarrh of the stomach, and my sou of catarrh of the throat. When I was sick I weighed 100 pounds; now I weigh 140. “Dr. Hartman’s remedies have proven to be reliable and wonderful. Their effect npon the system is remarkable. Peruna quiets the nerves, and is a great specific for all forms of chronic catarrh. “I am very glad to say that I can write you that I am cured in every way of catarrh, with which I had suffered terribly for ten years. I cannot thauk you enough for your advice,”

TOCSIN BUILDING NEARLY DONE By December First They Expect to Occupy It. Work on the Tocsin school bui'ding is being pushed with the most possible speed. It is thought that the building will be completed ready for occupancy by the first of December. In the meantime the students of the school are allowed to spend their time playing and having a good time, as they have no school to go to. Superintendent Huy ette is anxiouc that this building 'should be completed as soon as possible so that the children will not lose any more time than is necessary. Many i times when children are kept out of school for three or four months they ; lose interest in the school and as a ■ result do not return. The school building will be one of the finest coun- ( try buildings in the county. There > I will be four rooms in it. The build- 1 I ing will be fitted out with all the ' modern equipment of a country school building. —- — J. Earl Patterson is missing. After signing (or it is purported that he signed) an aflfidavit appearing in Monday’s Munoie Star, Senator N. B. Hawkins’ eight dollars a day "expert accountant” is missing and has probably been run out of the district until election. As an evidence of how this man Patterson stands in his home city and county the following extract from a Muncie publication explains Itself ‘fully. It says: “Robert I. Patterson, ■ former clerk, made final settlement In December, 1907. Afterwards Mr. Ktnworthy, an expert accountant went over his books and discovered that Mr. Patterson owed the county $700.35. Mr. Patterson acknowledged the withholding the county’s money by paying the amount to the county treasurer June 1, 1908. (See Auditor’s Register of Receipts for 1908, page 13.) J- Ea 1 Patterson, now famous accountant for N. B. Hawkins, candidate for congress was deputy clerk for Robert I. Patttrson during the time this shortage was made, and was, in fact, in complete charge of the office, and not only made this shortage, but failed to charge himself for his own marriage license issued to himself by himself from the clerk’s office during this time.—Portland Sun.

Constipation, Kidney Trouble. Mrs. Mahala Reid, Corbyville. Ont., Canada, writes: our celebrated remedies have been a wonderful boon to me iu my old age. I have not been in so good health for several years as now. “I was troubled with constipation, rheumatism and kidney trouble. A little over two years ago I completely lost my health, becoming almost helpless, when a dear friend sent me your remedies, Peruna and Manalin. “I began to take them, following the directions on the bottles. I very soon began to feel benefited by their use, and continued to take them. “I am now completely recovered from the above ailments, in fact, better than I have been for years past. “I cannot praise the remedies too highly and will always recommend them to others.” Pe-ru-na In Tablet Form. For two years Dr. Hartman and his assistants have incessantly labored to create Peruna in tablet form, and their strenuous labors have just been crowned with success. People who object to liquid medicines can now secure Peruna tablets, which represent the medicinal ingredients of Peruna. Each tablet is equivalent to one average dose of Peruna.

New York, Oct. 27. —Marion county Indiana, and Erie county. New York, the one having in it the city of Indianapolis and the other the city of Buffalo, are expected to give the coun try the first intimation as to how the presidential election has gone. Both counties will use machines for the first time at a presidential election, and the story of what each has done will be known several hours before any of the other centers of population will be heard from. “If Indianapolis and Buffalo go for Bryan his election will be practically assured,” said Chairman Mack today, whose heme is In Buffalo. “If Erie county gives Bryan a plurality of 5,000 or more it will mean that he has carried New York state, and is elected. I really expect the county to give him 12,000 or 15,000 plurality.” Four years ago Buffalo and Erie county gave Roosevelt 13,148 plurality. Two years ago Hughes had 1,182 plurality in the county, and a plurality in the state of 57,000. Rochester and M mroe county in this state, also use voting machines, and the tip they give early on election day evening will be watched for with keen interest. Fcur years ago Rosevelt’s plurality in the city and county was 14.230. Both sides are claiming the county this year. The Democratic national management hears that the members of the cabinet sent cut on the stump have received instructions from President Roosevelt to put aside everything for the Bryan calamity cry. According to the information, Secretary Root’s speeches in Ohio are to be devoted almost exclusively to the calamity bugaboo. Hoping to offset anything Root may say, the Democrats are preparing to make use of Root’s attack on William R. Hearst in this state two years ago I when it is alleged he came here on Mt*. Roosevelt’s order and accused Hearst with being partly responsible for the assassination of President McKinley. The point is made that Hearst is now an ally of the president and his cabinet in the effort to prevent the election of Bryan. While Bryan is expected to take care of himself on the calamity issue in this state, the national committee will use the billboards in backing him up.

Returning to their home after enjoying the rousing celebration of Tuesday night, Paul Gerber, of Berne, and four companions, who in the former’s automobile, participated in the rally parade, miraculously escaped what semed to be inevitable death when the machine overturned and threw the occupants forcibly to the ground. The party left this city at the conclusion of the Democratic demonstration and at about 10:30 o’clock when they had reached a point one mile north of Berne, the spring of the auto was broken, caused by the jar of crossing a bridge. They proceeded onward, but had only gone a sbert distance when, as they were turning to the side of the road to pass a vehicle, the machine overturned and hurled the five occupants who were Gerber, William Giliam, Harry Shalley, Noah Bixler and Jchn Reminger a distance of thirty feet, the five landing in a fence corner thirty feet away. Fortunately no serious injuries were received by the men with the exception of Reminger, whose arm was slightly bruised. The machine, however, was badly damaged, which will necessitate the expenditure of a neat sum of money to restore it to its former condition. o A DIVORCE CLEARING HOUSE Is State of Washington, But New Laws Will Be Demanded. Spokane, Wash., Oct. 27—When the legislature of Washington is called together next January, its members will be asked to pass a law that only citizens of the United States may apply for divorce in this state. This provision is to prevent pec pie from British Columbia making this state a clearing house Tor divorcee. There will also be a provision that persons cannot petition for divorce in less than one year after marriage. At the present time many residents of British Columbia and subjects of King Edward ocme to Washington and rent a room, establishing only nominally a year’s residence, and procure decrees. The new law will require all summonses to Include the state, city and street address of the defendant, where known and outside the jurisdiction cf the court, and will make the giving of a fictitious or wrong address a misdemeanor, punishable by a fine ranging from SIOO to $5,000, or imprisonment or both.

RECEIVERSHIP TAKEN UP. Judge Sturgis Transacts Business at Hartford City. This afterncon Judge Sturgis returned from Hartford City and the receivership matter of the Ossian Live Stock Insurance association was taken up. As a result the Union Savings and Trust company was appointed receiver of the association. C. D. Carr, secretary of the association, was the only officer here. He did not make an appearance, the association evidently thinking that the appointment of a receiver would be the simplest way out of the financial difficulty. According to the petition which Wilson N. Hoot, formerly the collector for the association, the company is in debt over $5,000, and there is not any money in the treasury. Hoot claims that the members of the company have not been paying their assessments when they came due and as a result , the association went defunct. This insurance association has been in existence for several years. When it was first organized it had a large membership and all the members took an interest in it. However, many scon began refusing to pay up when some of the members lost stock and as a result the treasury was soon depleted. —Bluffton Banner. o SERVICES INTERESTING. Attentive Audience Greets Able Evangelist. The services at tihe Church of Christ proved very interesting last night. An attentive audience greeted Evangelist Crabb, who read the 51st Psalm for scripture lesson. This was followed by the touching song “The Wages of Sin is Death.” Mrs. Crabb sang this song very impressively. This was followed by a splendid sermon by Rev. Crabb, whose subject was “Is Sin a Disease; If so, Can It be Cured.” The statements of Rev. Crabb I were earnest, convincing and forcible arguments to those who have not accepted Christ as their “Great Physician” and when the invitation songs were sung two responded to the call. This makes fifteen accessions to the membership since the meetings began. Much interest has been manifested at all services, and much good has resulted. The services will close Friday night, as Evangelist Crabb has a call in another church for a revival meeting. Every one is urged to come out to the remaining services. Sub ject for Wednesday evening is “The Carpenter of Nazareth.” The members of the church are especially urged to attend this meeting as a business session will be held after regular services. All should be present. Services at 7:15. o Neighbors and friends from Craigville and vicinity gathered today at the Tom Buckles home near that place and husked his corn and did other wcr kfor him. The gentleman is down with a serious case of kidney trouble. —Bluffton News.
