Says ilrs. Htiffaker.
Mrs. Mittie Huffaker, R. B. No. 3,
Columbia, Term., writes:
"I was afflicted with dyspepsia for sev
eral years and at last was confined to my
bed, unable to sit up.
"We tried several different doctors
without relief.
"I had given up aH hope of any relief
and was almost dead when my husband
bought me a bottle of Peruna.
"At first I could not notice any bene
fit, but after taking several bottles I
was cured sound and well.
"It is to Peruna I owe my life today.
"1 cheerfully recommend it to all
sufferers."
Revised Formula.
"For a number of years requests have
come to me from a multitude of grate
ful friends, nrging that Peruna be
given a slight laxative quality. I have
been experimenting with a laxative ad
dition for quite a length of time, and
sow feel gratified to announce to the
friends of Peruna that I have incorpor
ated such a quality in the medicine
which, in my opinion, can only en
hance its well-known beneficial charac
ter. "S. B. HARTMAN, M. D."

To have smokeless and electrical
cities we niuat provide huge electrical
centers nt the mines. We must trans
mit hlgh-teimlon electricity from the
central stations there to the various
cities around. The limits of transmlH
slon are well recognized as dependent
upon the limits of insulation. These
limits have not as yet been reached.
It has been noted by the observers of
electric progress that electric power
lines are radiating farther and farther
away from the home supply. It can
not be said that science would have to
be better known to reach tho zenith
of accomplishment In this reachlng-out
process.
It Is not this by any means, but more
the fact that precedent has. not as yet
established Its basis of argument on a
large enough scale. It Is more a case
of where the doing is delayed, because
It Is still to be done. A futile reason,
Indeed, but still the one frequently of
fered. The cost of a ton of coal at
the mines and the cost of the power
equivalent of thut ton In New York
City could not represent a great
enough difference but to sweepingly
compete with the price we pay at pres
ent But it Is not the social conse
quences of a revolution like this we
have to deal with, but the engineering
possibilities Involved. If It were not
the means even of considerably lower
ing the power or electrical equivalent
of a ton of coal it would still be the
only method left to follow.
The fact that men's minds are now
dealing with vaster problems than be
fore Is indicative of the time when
this will be the one to Interest them.
The development of millions of kilo
watts and the coal-mlnlng centers of
the country and the transmission of
this electricity to large and small
cities for distribution Is no more diffi
cult to understand than the attitude
we have accustomed ourselves to with
regard to our water supply. The reser
voir is indispensable, the pipe lines
through the streets and in the houses
the same. Why not coal energy in Its
converted form? This Is the next great
problem of the century and one not to
be too highly relished by the railroads
that carry coaL They as well as our

EACH VILLAGE A VENICE.
Strange Relic of Ancient Cnatoma
Prevailing In a German Foreat.
One of the most Interesting regions
in the "old fatherland" Is the so-called
"Spreewald," the Forest of the Spree,
situated not far from the German cap
ital, In the province of Brandenburg.
Each village is a little Venice, every
house a little island, and these islets
are, connected by bridges sufficiently
raised to allow boats to pass under
them.
Most of the houses, with their barns
and stables, rest on plies, and there is
generally a strip of artificial terra
firma either in front or at the rear of
every building. By means of these land
strips and of the bridges the slender
land communication is kept throughout
the district but most of the business
and amusement Is carried on through
the canals, which not only form the
main highways but penetrate and cross
and recross the whole .region.
It la on these lagoons that nil traffic
is conducted in boats during the period
from spring, when the last vestiges of
frost and Ice are disappearing, until
the end of autumn. You see the letter
carrier shoot up and down the canals,
performing his duties In his frail craft ;
the police glide leisurely along the
banks, watching everything going on;
peasants bring the products of their toll
to the nearest towns; children go to
and from school ; young mothers, dress
ed In their Sunday clothes, ore rowed
to church, carrying In their arms a
small, queer-looking bundle from
which two large eyes In a tiny face
stare at the stranger In wonderment
baby is going to be baptized, an impor
tant moment with this strongly relig
ious people. Technical World.
Nicaragua la Baay.
According to Consul Ryder, the presi
dent of Nicaragua has Just given a re
markable concession for ten years at
$160 (gold) per year. The concession
aire is privileged to have a collector In
the custom house at Blueflelds harbor,
through whose hands all shipments of
rubber must pass, and he is allowed to
tax It 10 cents a pound over and above
the government tax of 5 cents a pound.
It is estimated that the annual ship
ment of rubber from this district Is
500,000 pounds, giving the concession
aire a revenue of $50,000 a year, or
$500,000 for the period of bis contract
although It Is not to cost him more than
$1,600 for the ten years.
Don't Poison Baby.
pOETY TEARS AGO almost every mother thought her child must have
PAKEGORIO or laudanum to make it sleep. These drugs will produce
Bleep, and A FEW DROPS TOO MANY will produce the SLEEP FROM WHICH
THERE IS NO WAKING, Many are the children who have been killed or
whose health has been ruined for life by paregoric, laudanum and morphine, each
of which is a narcotic product of opium. Druggists are prohibited from selling
either of the narcotics named to children at all, or to anybody without labelling
them " poison." The definition of " narcotic " is S "A medicine which relieves pain
and produces sleep, hut which in poisonous doses produces stupor, coma, convul'
sions and death, " The taste and smell of medicines containing opium are disguised,
and sold tinder the names of "Drops," "Cordials," "Soothing Syrups," etc. You
should not permit any medicine to be given to your children without you or
your physician know of what it is composed. CASTORIA DOES NOT CON

Eat a Cascaret whenever you suspect
you need it. Carry a little lOo Emer
gency box constantly with you, in your
Purse or Pocket.
When do you need one?
1
WhenyourTongueiscoated i
When you have Heart
burn, Belching, Acid Risings in
Throat.
When Pimples begin to peep out.
When ' your stomach Gnaws and
Burns.
That's the time to check earning Con
stipation, Indigestion and Dyspepsia.
That's the time to take a Cascaret.
One candy tablet night and morning,
taken regularly for a short time, is war
ranted to cure the worst case of Consti
pation or Indigestion that walks the earth.
One tablet taken whenever you suspect
you need It will Insure you against 90 per
cent of all -other ills likely to attack you.
Because 90 per cent of these ills begin
In the Bowels, or exist through poor Nutri
tion. Cascarets don't purge, don't weaken,
don't Irritate, nor upset your stomach.
They don't act like "Physio" that flush
out the Bowels with a waste of precious
Digestive Juice needed for tomorrow's
Bowel-work.
No, they act like Exercise, on the
Bowels, instead.
They stimulate the Bowel Muscles to
contract and propel the Food naturally
past the little valves that mix Digestive
Juices with Food.
They strengthen these Bowel-Muscles
by exercising them.
This stronger action, producing greater
nutrition from food,' brings back to the
Bowel-Muscles greater strength for self
operation. The Bowel-Muscles can thus.ln a short
time, dispense with any Drug assistance
whatever.
Cascarets are safe to take as often as
you need them, while pleasant to eat as
Candy.
.
Then carry the little ten-centbox con
stantly with you in your purse, and
take a Cascaret whenever you suspect
you need it.
One Cascaret at a time will promptly
cleanse a foul Breath, or Coated Tongue.
All druggists sell them over ten mil
lion boxes a year, for six years past.
Be very careful to get the genuine, made
only by the Sterling Remedy Company
and never sold In bulk. Every tablet
stamped "CCC."
