PERUNA EDITORIAL NO. 2. Dr. Hartman has claimed for many yean that Peruna is an EXCELLENT CATARRH REMEDY. Some of the doctor's critics have disputed the doctor's claim as to the efficacy of Peruna. Since the ingredients of Peruna are no longer a secret, what do the medi cal authorities say concerning the remedies of which Peruna is composed! Take, for instance, the ingredient HYDRASTIS CANADENSIS, 02 COIDEU SEAL. The United States Dispensatory says of this herbal remedy, that it is largely employed in the treatment of depraved mucous membranes, chronic rhinitis (nasal catarrh), atonic dyspepsia (catarrh of the stomach), chronic intestinal catarrh, catarrhal jaundice (catarrh of the liver), and in diseased mucous membranes of the pelvic organs. It is also recommended for the treatment of various forms of diseases peculiar to women. Another ingredient of Peruna, CORYDALIS FORMOSA, is classed in the United States Dispensatory as a tonic. ) CEDROU SEEDS is another ingredient of Peruna, an excellent drug that has been very largely overlooked by the medical profession for the past fifty years. THE SEEDS ARE TO EE FOUND IN VERY FEW DRUG STORES. Th United States Dispensatory says of the action of cedron that it is used as a bitter tonic and in the treatment of dysentery, and in intermittent diseases as a SUBSTITUTE FOR QUININE. ' OIL OF COPAIBA, another ingredient of Peruna, is classed by the United bw Arupvuoakui jr as a uixiu Buuiiuaui ana intestinal tract. j Our Peruna Tablet ; Isjeruna With . Fluid Removed. (catarrh of the mucous surfaces of the mouth), follicular pharyngitis (catarrh of the pharynx), chronio coryza (catarrh of the head). This writer classes hydrastis as a stomachic tonic, useful in atonic dyspepsia (chronio gastric catarrh), catarrh of the duodenum, catarrh of the gall duct, catarrh of the intestines, catarrh of the kidneys (chronic Bright's disease), catarrh of the bladder, and catarrh of other pelvic organs- BARTHOLOW REGARDS COPAIBA as an excellent remedy for chronio catarrh of the bladder, chronic bronchitis (catarrh of the bronchial tubes). BARTHOLOW STATES THAT CUEEB, an ingredient of Peruna, pro motes the appetite and digestion, increases the circulation of the blood. Use ful in chronio nasal catarrh, follicular "pharyngitis (catarrh of the pharynx), increasing the tonicity of the mucous membranes of the throat It also re lieves hoarseness. Useful in atonic dyspepsia (catarrh of the stomach), and in chronio catarrh of the colon and rectum, catarrh of the bladder, prostatorrhea, and chronic bronchial affections. MILLSPAUGB; MEDICINAL PLANTS, one of the most authoritative works on medicinal herbs in the English language, in commenting upon COLLINSONIA CANADENSIS, says that it acts on the pneumogastrio and vaso motor nerves. It increases the secretions of the mucous membranes in general In the mountains of Virginia,' Kentucky, Tennessee and Carolina, collinaonia canadensis is considered a panacea for many disorders, including headache, colic, cramp, dropsy and indigestion. DR. SCUDDER regards it highly as a remedy in chronio diseases of the lungs, heart disease and asthma. These citations ought to be sufficient to show to any candid mind that Pe runa is a catarrh remedy. Surely, such herbal remedies, that command the enthusiastic confidence of the highest authorities obtainable, brought together in proper combination, ought to make a catarrh remedy of the highest efficacy. This is our elaim, and we are able to substantiate this ckim by ample quotations from the HIGHEST MEDICAL AUTHORITIES IN THE WORLD. HOWAKD E. BURTON. Agaayer nra Chemist, Loadvllle, Colorado.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portlou of the ear. Iher is only one way to cure aeainess, ana mat is dv coumun tional remedies. Deafness Is caused by an in' flamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hear ing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be tanen out and this tube restored to Its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; which is nothing but an inflamed condition oi the mucous surfaces.

French, Director Idaho Experiment Station, Moscow. The Btock breeder is often seriously handicapped in his work by the more or less complete isolation of his work. This ia especially true in the West where many sections are not as thickly settled as the older portions of the country. Sometimes this condition is due to a mistaken attitude on the part of the breeder a tendency whioh is quite natural to men who are not accus tomed to organized effort in accom plishing a given object. I refer to the quite prevalent whim that if several men engage In the same business the work will be over-done, and the mar ket for the products destroyed or seri ously impaired. In no department of agricnlture ia Ibis condition less likely to prevail than in the production of pure bred or even well bred live stock. The more animals of merit produoed in any given locality, the greater likeli hood of a better maiket, owing to the fact , that often a few superior animals, even, are not sufficient to attract the interest of the prospective buyer. The buyer which the stock breeder wishes to interest is the man who is looking for several head, a car load, or perhaps several carloads, of animals at one time. Any one who has attempted to look up a carload of cattle of any par ticular type or breed, can well under stand how difficult it is to find the de sired number of suitable animals in any one locality; and in case the ani mals have to be selected from remote herds what a vexing problem it is to assemble the animals at any given point for shipment. Now if a number of farmers in any given locality would all agree to breed the same kind of livestock, then it might be possible for a buyer to get the entire lot desired from that particular seotion. Another important point in favor of community breeding would be the op portunity offered 'or comparison When a breeder is isolated from other men who are. handling the same kind of stock, he may not have the opportunity to check up his stock to see if the de sirable points are being brought eut as they should be. Some important char acteristics may be overlooked unlesB there is some standard of excellence available, with which to compare his own results? One of the most serious hindrances to the improvement of the breeds of live stock in the West, is the difficulty in eeouring new blood when it should be introduced. Several individual cases have come under our observation where a splendid foundation was allowed to run out, through too close breeding, which could not be avoided, except at a great expense and trouble in securing new blood from remote sections of the country. The question of feed and r4re could be much better solved in ftny given soiunnityif a dozen men wfcre hand ling WS same kinds of live stock, rather than a dozen different types anu-bre&ds These ideas are being put into actual , practice iu some sections of the MisbIs sippi valley, and if needed there, where the country is densely populated, it 1b doubly important in the Pacfio North' west, where farmers have not many of the conveniences of transportation and rapid communication that are en' joyed in the more densely populated sections of the country. POTATOES FOR ALCOHOL. President of Washington Stat School Gives Interesting Facts. BjJ.L. Ashloclc Washington State College. Pullman. The newly organized Commerccial club of Pullman, Wash., is now per fecting arrangements for the installa tion of a denatured aloohol plant in that city. President Bryan, of the Washington State college, who is chair man of the committee on denatured al cohol, is conducting the negotiations for the purchase of a large "still," and if the plans ofthe organization are car ried out, the plant will be in operation by the time next season's potato crop is taken from the field. Discussing the prospects for denatured alcohol, Presi dent Bryan said: 'For the paat year the state experi ment station has had in hand the mat ter of gathering information relative to the practicability of utilizing this im portant crop in the manufacture of de natured alcohol . Careful ana lyses have been made to determine the amount of alcohol that potatoes of this region will yield. We have found that one hun dred pounds of potatoes will produce eighteen pounds of starch ; that eigh teen pounds of starch will produce nine pounds of alcohol, which, X believe, sells at from 50 to 55 cents per gallon. At this rate, the alcohol from one ton of potatoes would sell for about $18. "Alcohol can be made from the small notatoes as well as the large oneB, and in this fact lies a source of considerable savins to the farmers. Also, waste fruit can be used, and considerable sue cess has been reported from the use of corn, and even the stalks. This dena tured alcohol Industry should be taken seriously by the farmers and business men of the Northwest; for it mtans the utilization in a profitable way of a vast amount of produce, such as small pot toes, off grade wheat, waste fruits, etc., which are now limply a source of dead loss."

Those most usually afflicted with old sores are persons who have reached or passed mid die life. The vitality of the blood and strength of the system have naturally begun to decline, and the poisonous germs which have accumulated because of a sluggish and inactive condition of the system, or some hereditary taint which has hitherto been held ia check, now force an outlet on the face, arms, legs or other part of the body.
