Tctal Value of Permits Issued in 1914 Was $1,186,970,75 Despite "Hard Times" War Hindered Contracts. With the exception of one other yoar ion the past 12 months were the busiest in the history of South Bend as far as building and structural activity is concerned. The figure represented in 413 building permits issued from the office of the board of public works through 1911. according to Mss Veronica Sweeney, clerk of the board, was $1,1S6,970.75. The same figure for 1913 was $S33,689, some $350,000 short of the figure for the past 12 months. South Bend architects, contractors and other men interested in a business way in structural activity in the city claim that the year marked a great stride in building. The year was one in which the country suffered from alleged "hard times" through the detrimental effects of the European war upon its industries and general prosperity, but in South Bend, despite the closing of the city's largest factories and the hundreds of unemployed, new homes, new office buildings and churches were erected. Hindered by Foreigners. The foreign population of the city was the only stumbling block In the path of the most successful year in the city's history. Many permits issued for new homes to foreigners who had saved neat sums from comfortable positions in local factories, refused to sign their names to contracts after the outbreak of the European war. But for this fact, which is claimed to have lowered the building figure thousands of dollars, the year would have far surpassed any other. In 1911, the most successful building year In South Bend's history, permits aggregating $ 1,2 4 1.7 S0.25 were issued by the city. During 1910 the figure was $1,208,867, while in 1912 the building amounted to $942,940, according to the figures of the citv. CLASSES TO BE RESUMED Activities at Y. XV. C. A.

Catarrh of Bronchial Tubes, Exposed to Cold Drenching Rains, Stubborn Cough, Cold on the Chest, Thick Yellow Sputum.

Mr. George A. Douglas, No. 49 East 131st St., New York, N. Y writes: MAs my work compels me to spend a large part of my time out of doors, I have often been drenchel by sudden rains, chilled by extreme cold, and I coon found that I had a bad case of catarrh of the bronchial tubes. I tried plasters and medicine, but nothing I did seemed to help me until I took Peruna. This splendid medicine took right hold of me, drove every bit of the disease out, and built me up until I felt stronger than I had for years. Whenever I have been exposed now a V .. :'.-...: couple of doses always restores me. Peruna is an ideal protector In all sorts of weather." This is a typical case of bronchial catarrh. It is very prevalent, winter and summer. Perur.a is a recognized standard remedy. Mr. Pw R. Baer. 114 VT. Laurent St.,! North Topeka, Kan., writes: "For three years I suffered with ulcers in my Ptomach. I could eat nothing without bems in pain, and could scarcely sleep at all. I could pet nothing to help me until I befrj&n the use of Peruna. I took frur bottle, and at present I am well and entirely cured, as lar as I know." Those who prefer, can now orccuro Peruna in tablet form.
