THE SUNDAY QRKGONIAK, PORTlAND, 'APEIL' 2, l&Oo. . PE-RU-NA, THE FAMILY DOCTOR IN MILLIONS OF HOMES POISON FOR BABES Served Up by Manufacturers of Their Food,' KILLS HALF-MILLION A YEAR War on Deadly Adulteration Prom ises to Provoke Bitter Contro versy In Convention of State Food Commissioners. CHICAGO. April L (Special.) Nearly half a million babies died In the United States last year from the effects of adul terated infant foods, poisons used In col oring butter and candy, formaldehyde in milk, and other impure articles of diet turned out by fraudulent manufacturers. Data to prove this assertion were pro duced before the meeting of the executive committee of the National Association of .Estate Dairy and Food Departments, which met today at the Great Northern Hotel. A bitter war in the ranks of the asso ciation Is expected to be revealed. Food Commissioners from different states, health officers and officers of the National Association are In attendance. Differences of opinion concerning the alleged adul terations are said to be responsible for the strife. Paul Pierce, of Chicago, and R. Allen, of Kentucky, secretary of the association, are the leaders of the two factions. Mr. Allen has come to Chicago to look after his interests. Army of Infants Poisoned. The claim of enormous fatality among infants last year resulting from Impure food Is made by J. N. Hurty, secretary of the Indiana State Board of Health. Mr. Hurty produces figures to show that 65 per cent of the total deaths of Infants In America last year were due to poisons administered in impure foods and the deadly concoctions placed on the market by fraudulent food manufacturers. He produces statistics to show that more than 700.000 infants died in the "United States last year. "If Mr. Hurty's figures are correct," said Mr. Pierce, "and I believe they are. an army of 455,000 Infants was murdered last year by food adulterations. They were poisoned by Infant foods -and dyes and chemicals contained in the diet their mothers have fed them In an effort to ap pease their appetites, to satisfy their natural desires for nourishment and rear them healthfully to maturity. More Deadly Than Whisky. "When such conditions as these are harassing our land, when these baby ldlling food adulterators are permitted to stalk forth among us. blighting our homes, feeding on the lives of our chil dren to fatten their purses, Is It not time that pure-food workers regarded some other subject of greater Import than whis ky, to the adulteration of which they have lately devoted most of their energy?"

V sL 1 Pe-ru-na. 55a::!!s&-r- an Francisco, CaL" PE-RU-NA A BLESSING Mrs. Ella Hovalter, 426 Jefferson street, Topeka, Kan., member First M. E. Church, writes: " . Peruna has been n prrrnt biennis In our honnehold. 3Iy daughter, Sylvia, Trnn cured of a bail case of catarrh of the throat. "I had catarrh of the head so bad that 1 could scarcely breathe, and Pe runa cured me, and now my husband Is using it for catarrhal kldney troubles and growing better every Jay. . "We are pleased to praise Peruna, for.it has splendid merits." THE HOME IS THE BULWARK Anything that attacks the home attacks the nation attacks the very source of advancement and prosperity. Catarrh is the natural climatic enemy of every home. Over every home hangs the Inevitable certainty of catarrhal Invasion. No home is free from it. Every person is subject to It. It would be no exaggeration to say that two-thirds of the homes In America have suffered more or less fronvthls invisible, almost omnipresent enemy, catarrh. Peruna is the natural protection of the household. It meets catarrh In all Its phases, at every point of attack. Catarrh may appear in the household in the form of a slight cold or cough, an attack of la grippe, or even hay fever. Peruna meets the Invasion squarely and exterminates the enemy before It gains a foothold. Therefore Peruna is a household remedy. It should be In every home con tinually. Used at the proper moment, it obviates the necessity of continual doctoring. In no .other way can the wisdom of economy and foresight be so forcibly ex pressed as in keeping on hand a bottle of Peruna to protect the family against the encrachments of catarrh. "We have on rile thousands of testimonials from heads of families, located north, south, east and west, who praise Peruna for Its efficient protection of the family against catarrh. " '"' .

Representative Payne, of New York, chairman o the ways and means committee, which originates tar iff legislation, when asked today what plans he had made for revising the tar iff at the next session of Congress, re plied: "There are no plans, and there is no understanding on that subject so far as I am aware." When reference was made to the defi cit in the Treasury and the prediction of some revisionists that thore would be a still greater deficit unless the tar iff Is revised, Mr. Payne answered: "In my opinion -there will be no defi cit next year," which is equivalent to saying there will be no tariff revision next session, If Mr. Payne can pre vent it.
