Tb daughter of farmers did not

money by braiding atraw. Every little

villages, calling from bout to bouae

Newly XMacovered Rubber lant la
Supposedly Ueclee Weed.
The announcement that rubber haa
been found In a supposedly useless
weed, growing on tbe arid plateaus
and high mesa lands of the Colorado
mountains, sets at rest all fears of a
rubber Hhortage, says a writer In the
World To-day. The rubber tree la a
product peculiar to the tropic The
newly discovered rubber plant of Col
orado, however, grows at an altitude
of from 5,000 to 12,000 feet, where the
climate holds all the rigors of winter
and all the withering force of a rain
less summer. The discovery of the
plant relieves the world's rubber mar
ket from Its dependence on the tropics
and makes It possible for rubber to be
come a stable crop, even in countries
where extreme cold prevails.
To V. E. Marsh, of Denver, Is due
the credit of the discovery. He went
to Colorado two years ago, an Invalid,
and to regain his health went out on to
the range with the cowboys. He
struck the range near Buena Vista.
Col., where he found the cowboys
chewing the root of a weed they call
ed "rabbit bush." After being thor
oughly masticated the root left a gum
my substance. When Mr. Marsh first
noticed it he considered it of more than
usuaf interest, and at his first oppor
tunity sent samples of the weed to
Prof. T. D. A. Oockrell, botanist at
Colorado College, for examination.
The professor's testa showed th
gummy substance to be gum elastic,
or India rubber. When compared with
other rubbers It was found to be equal
to the beat medium grade of the trop
ical products.

CAPTAIN JAMES L. DEMPSEY.
Catarrh of the Kidneys a Common
Disease Kidney Trouble Often
Falls to Be Regarded as Catarrh
by Physicians. .
Catarrb of tbe kidneys is very com-J
mon indeed. It is a pity this fact is'
not better known to tbe physicians as
well aa the people.
People have kidney disease. They!
take some diuretic, hoping to get bet- j
ter. They never once think of catarrh. I
Kidney disease and catarrh are seldom
associated in the minds of the people,
and, alas, it is not very often associ
ated in the minds of the physicians.
Too few physicians recognize catarrh of
th kidneys. They doctor for some
thing else. They try this remedy and
that remedy. The trouble may be ca-
tairh all the time. A few bottles of
Peruna would cure them. ... ,
Pe-ru-na Removes the Cause of the
Kidney Trouble.
Peruna strikes at the very center of
the difficulty, by eradicating the ca
tarrh from the kidneys. Catarrh is
the cause of kidney difficulty. Re
move the cause and you remove the
effect.' With unerring accuracy Peru
na goes right to the spot. The kidneys
are soon doing their work with perfect
regularity.
Thousands of Testimonials.
Thousands of testimonials from peo
ple who have bad kidney disease which
had gone beyond the control of the
physician are received by Dr. Hart-
man every year, giving Peruna .th
whole praise for marvelous cure. .. .
Pe-ru-na Cures Kidney Disease.
Pernna cures kidney disease. Tb
reason it cures kidney disease is be
cause it cures catarrh. Catarrh of th
kidneys is the cause of most kidney
disease. Peruna cures catarrh wher
ever it happens to be located. It rare
ly (ails.
If you do not derive prompt and sat
isfactory results from the use of Peru
na, write at once to Dr. Hartaian, giv
ing a fall statement of yonr case, and
he will be pleased to give you hi val
