your preparation for the relief of

mony: "It is a proven fact that Pe

Pe-ru-na in Tablet Form.
For two year;» Dr. Hartman and
his assistants have incessantly la
bored to create Perttna in tablet form,
and their strenuous labors have just

now secure Peruna tablets, which rep
resent the solid medicinal ingredient-

If you have a boy who has begun
smoking too early and whom you wish
to cure of the habit, feed him pepper
mints. I)r. O. Clayton Jones of Silver-
ton, England, writing in the London
Lancet, is authority for this simple
cure. Dr. Jones writes : ‘‘To break the
smoking habit in a youth there is noth
ing better than peppermint drops. He
cannot smoke with a ‘bullseye’ in his
mouth, and even for some time after it
is dissolved tobacco will not blend kind
ly with the taste that remains. Social
ly the cure nmy seem worse than the
disease, but from a medical point of
▼iew the sucking of peppermints is far
less hurtful. A common ‘bullseye’ will
prevent smoking for nearly an hour,
so the amount of sweets used need not
be great.”

SHIPPERS WIN OUT
United States Court Decides Har
riman Lines In Wrong.
LUMBER INTERESTS SUSTAINED
Upholds Right of Commission to Fix
Freight Rates, Which Must Be
Equitable Hereafter.
San Francisco, Oct. 1. In sustaining
a demurrer by the government to an
application for an injunction filed by
the Southern Pacific company seeking
to restrain the interstate commerce
commission from establishing a rate
upon lumber between Oregon and Cali
fornia, the United States circuit court
of appeals yesterday rendered a de
cision which upholds the authority of
the commission to fix freight charges
upon what it considers a just and
equitable basis, and sustains, in its di
rect application, the most important
clause of the rate law, namely, the
right of the commission to relieve ship
pers, when in its judgment they are
entitled to such relief.
While the opinion of the court will
probably not be available for several
• lays, the victory of the government ap
pears to be a substantial one. Repre
sentatives of the United Staes district
«attorney’s office and the interstate
commerce commission declared that this
is the first instance since the enact
ment of the rate law in which it was
alleged that the commission had erred
in a question of discretion and judg
ment, and the first time that there had
been placed squarely before a court of
this jurisdiction the right of the com
mission to make or correct rates under
such circumstances.
The action decided was instituted by
the Southern Pacific and the Oregon &
California Railway after the announce
nient of an increase in the rates on
rough lumber from the Willamette val
ley in Oregon to San Francisco and
other bay points. The railroads an
nounced that the rate, which was $3.10
per 1,000 feet, was to be increased to
$5. A protest was filed with the inter
state commerce commission by the As-
SDciated Lumber Dealers of the North
west, and the commission, after investi
gation, decided that $3.40 per 1,000 was
a reasonable rate. The objection of
the railways to this decision took the
form of a suit for an injunction to set
aside the order of the commission.
The lion was sneering at the awkward,

St. Petersburg, Oct. 1.—For the 24
hours ending at noon yesterday 223
new cases and 93 deaths from cholera
have been reported by the municipal
hospitals. For the previous 24 hours
the statistics were 222 cases and 99
deaths.
One hundred and twenty-seven recov
eries were reported yesterday as com
pared with 137 the 24 hours ending at
noon the day previous.
The totals since the beginning of the
«epidemic are 5.655 cases, 2,168 deaths
and 1,651 recoveries.
There has been published an official
report of an outbreak of the cholera at
the Pavlovsk military academy. This
shows that the disease originated in
the academy kitchen, where a cook was
suffering from incipient cholera and
prepared the food for the cadets for
several days. The cook contracted the
disease in the cholera hospital, where
he wag sent on a mistaken diagnosis.
When the physician discovered his error
the cook was discharged and allowed
to return to duty. This gross careless
ness resulted in 58 of the cadets coming
down with the disease. Five of these
•uses ended fatally.
Aeroplane Deal Closed.
Paris, Oct. 1.—With the consent of
Wilbur Wright, the great American
aviator, Lazare Weiller has ordered a
French factory to manufacture 50 aero
planes built on the same plan as
Wright’s machine. Weiller is the head
of the syndicate that is going to pay
Wright brothers $100,000 for the
French rights to their machine, provid
ing it meets with certain requirements,
and it is believed that the order placed
with the factory yesterday is antici
patory of the signing of a contract be
tween the Wright brothers and the
French syndicate.
IGNORANCE OF SANITATION.
Lower Classes in Russia Refuse to
Be Vaccinated.
St. Petersburg. Sept. 29. —Since the
beginning of the epidemic there have
been 15,683 cases of Asiatic cholera re
ported in Russia and 7,102 deaths. In
St. Petersburg alone, since the presence
of the disease was officially admitted
September 8, there have been 4,931 eases
and 1.871 deaths reported.
The figures with reference to the in
vasion of this city by the disease can
not be relied upon as on a number of
occasions authoritative sources showed
the number of cases and deaths in a
single day to be far in excess of that
announced by the authorities. There is
an appreciable betterment of the sani
tary conditions and consequent decrease
in the disease as shown by the figures
given out Sunday.
C C C THE CURE F0R
SCROFULA
Swollen glands about the neck, weak eyes, pale, waxy complexions,
running sores and ulcers, skin diseases, and general poor health, are the
usual ways in which Scrofula is manifested.
The disease being deeply
intrenched in the blood often attacks the bones, resulting in White Swelling,
or hip disease, and the scrofulous and tubercular matter so thoroughly
destroys the healthful properties of the blood that Scrofula sometimes
terminates in consumption, an incurable disease.
The entire circulation
being contaminated, the only way to cure the trouble is to thoroughly
purify the blood and restore the circulation to a strong, healthy state.
S. S S. is the very best treatm -nt for Scrofula; it renovates the entire
blood supply and drives out the scrofulous and tubercular deposits. S. S. S.
is the greatest of all blood purifiers, and it not only goes right down to the
very bottom of the trouble and removes the cause, but it supplies the weak,
diseased blood with the healthful properties it is in need of, and in this way
builds up weak, frail, scrofulous persons and makes them strong and healthy.
S. S. S. is a gentle, safe, vegetable preparation and is suited for persons of
any age. Book on the blood containing information about Scrofula and any
medical advice free.
