HAY FEVER
Having used Peruna for catarrh and
hay fever, I can recommend it to all who
are suffering with the above diseases.
am happy to be able to say it has helped
me wonderfully

HAY FEVER .is endemic catarrh. It in
caused by some irritating substance is
,tbe atmosphere during the late summer
months. It is generally thought that the
pollen of certain weeds and flowers is the
cause of it.
Change of locality seems to be the only
rational cure. The use of Peruna, how
ler, stimulates the Tiervous system to re
list the; effect of the poisonous emanation
and sometimes carries the victim through
thefhaV fever season without an attack of
tbJlisease.
irge number of people rely upon Pe-
for this purpose. Ihose who o not
find it convenient to change their location
to avoid Hay Fever would do well to give
Peruna a tnj. It has proven of priceless
value to many people.
Peruna is sold by your local druggists.

iSALT FOR CHQTJBRA.
At a meeting of the Kansas Poultry
Association Mr. E. Har-'agton said:
"This fall Mrs. Harrington discovered
that the cholera had appsared among
faer chickens. I had heard somewhere
that there is nothing to beat salt as
a disinfectant I had the hired man
clean the henhouse as clean as he
oould, wash it out thoroughly with
just as strong brine as he oould make,
and fill every crack and crevice with
the brine. He did so, and we haven.
lost a hen since. I tried the same
thing on my hoga when) the cholera
broke1 out a monk them. And I am sat

Must Enforce Book Law.
The state superintendent of public
instruction is sending notices to the
superintendents of the city schools in
the state notifying them that the law
plainly requires the use of the books
adopted by the text book commissior
for the next five years in their schools,
that it is their duty to obey the law
and his duty to enforce it. Some of
the schools have in the past refused
to use the books adopted.
State superintendent Joyner is al
so sending letters to the county su
perintendents of schools insisting that
thej see to it in cooperation with the
county boards, that there are deposi
tories for the books throughout their
counties in easy reach of all the peo
ple. Also that they report to him the
failure of any publisher to keep a
pply of the books at any of the
depositories. Accurate lists of all
the depositories in each 'county are
to be furnished the state department.

The Age of Lead.
We are wont to speak of , this era
as tire "age of iron," and there is no
gainsaying that, industrially speak
ing, iron is a "precious metal."
Nevertheless, few people realize
now useful, if not absolutely neces
sary, to modern civilization, is that,
other metal, lead. Soft, yielding,,
pliable, it is not much like its sister
metal, but .those distinguishing quali
ties are what give it such a prominent
place in the arts and industries.
Modern plumbing, requiring :nmy
turnings and twistins- mil withal
tight joints, would be almost impos
sible without lead pipe. The grat-.
est civilizing agent in the world the
printing art is absolutely dependent
on lead. Hand-set tvrje. linotvne
- v w
slugs,' monotype type ail are
made of compositions of which lead
is the chief component to say noth
ing of the bearings in the presses 'as
weil as all other kinds of machinery
in which "babbitt" metal is U3ed. '
Solder la another lead r;roduct
what a field of usefulness that one
form opens up.
Then there is the most important
use of all to which lead is put paint,
that necessary material which keeps
our houses looking pretty inside
and out and preserves them from
decay.
How many of us thank metalic ledd
for the comforts of paint? Yet the
best house paint is nothing but me
talic lead corroded by acid to a white
powder known as "white lead." Of
course, there aie many imitations of
"white leacY some of which are sold
as white lead and some which are
offered by the name of ready-pre
pared vaint under the familiar pre
tense that they are "just as good" as
white leri. But all good paint is
made of te metal, :-ead, corroded and
ground to a fine white powder and
mixed with linseed oil.
White lead is also used in the coat
ing of fine oil cloths and for many
purposes besides paint.
"Red lead" is another product of
metalie lead and is what is known as
an oxide of lead, being produced by
burning the metal. Red lead is the
best paint known to preserve iron,
steel or tin, and i used largely in
pointing metal structures, such as
skyscraper skeletons, mills and
bridges.
There are many othe products of
the metal lead, uch as litharge.
orange mineral, etc., which are es-
eential in many of the arts in which
we never imagine that lead would be
of the least use.
Verily, we live in ac age of lead
as well as of iron,

ALL-IMPORTANT
FACT
That in addressing Mrs. Pinkham yon
are confiding- jour private Ills to & woman
a woman whose experience with wo
men's diseases covers twenty-fire years.
The present Mrs. Pinknam $ the
daughter-in-law of Lydla E. Pinkham,
and for many years under her direction,
and since her decease, her advice' has been
freely given to sick women.
Many women suffer in silence and drift along
from bad to worse, knowing lull well that they
ought to have immediate assistance, bnt a natural
modesty impels them to shrink from exposing ;them
selres to the questions and probable examinations
of even their family physician. It is unnecessary.
Without money or price you can consult a woman
whose knowledge from actual experience is great.
Mrs. PInkham'g Standing Invitation :
Women suffering from any form of female weak
ness are invited to promptly communicate with Mrs.
Pinkham at Lynn, Mass. All letters are received,
opened, read and answered by women only. A
woman can freely talk of her private illness to a
woman; thus has been established the eternal
confidence between Mrs.Pinkham and the women
of America which has never been broken. Out
of the vast volume of experience which
has to draw from, it is more than possible
that she has gained the very knowledge
that will help your case, bhe asks notn
ing in return except jrour good-will, and
her advice has relieved thousands. Surely
any woman, rich or 'poor, is very foolish if
she does not take advantage of this gen
erous offer of assistance. Lydia E. Pink

AWFUL PSORIASIS 35 YEARS.
Trrlbl Sealy Humor In Patches
Over Body Skin Cracked and
, Bleeding: Cured by Cuticura.
"I was afflicted with' psoriasis for thirty
five years, it was in patches all over my
body. 1 used three cakes of Cuticura
Soap,, six boxes of Ointment and two bot
tles of Resolvent. In thirty days 1 was
completely cured, and 1 think permanent
ly, as it was about five years ago. The
psoriasis first made its appearance in red
spots, generally forming a circle, leaving
in the centre a spot aDout the. size of a
silver dollar of sound flesh. ; In a short
time the affected circle would form a
heavy dry scale of white silvery appear
ance, and would gradually drop off. IV
remove the entire scales by bathing or
using oil to soften them the flesh would
be perfectly raw, and a light discharge of
bloody substance would ooze out,. That
scaly crust would form again in twenty
four hours. It was worse on my arms and
limbs, although it was in spots all over
my body, also on my scalp. If I let the
scales remain too long without removing
by bath or otherwise the skin would
crack and bleed. I suffered intense itch
ing, worse at nights after, getting warm j
in bed, or glood warm by exercise, when j
it would be almost unbearable. W. M. !
