Who is In abetter position to know than the farmer's wife herself what is required in the farmer's homeT She must meet its troubles, solve its prob lems, ward off disease, nurse the sick, .he must do all these things herself, and she learns by valuable experience what is best and what Is not best. In number loss farm homes Peruna is relied upon as the family medicine. Peruna books are consulted In health and disease. Poruna Is used as a preven tive as wall as a corrective in disease. The wives of the farmers of 'the United States constitute a solid phalanx in favor of Pernna. Against this testimony the slanders cf a few critics will not prevail. One sensible mistress of a farm home who has used Peruna knows more about Peruna than all the magazine critics in the world. Peruna In Her Home. Mrs. Anna Linder, II. F. D.

Important changes have been made at the sharp curve on the Danville and B'oomsburg Electric railway at this end of tlu Fishing creek bridge, where by the curve, which was very abrupt has been much reduced. The end of the iron bridge tint carries the trolley has been moved nearly two feet further up stream. The track of the Montour and Columbia Electric railway at that point Ins been removed from the side of the road next to the creek to the opposite side of the high way. This change of location along with the change made in the bridge rmde it possible to construct a very easy curve at that point. The bridge as changed was used for the first on Friday morning.

From ye r to jear the farms of the United S:.'tes produce regularly an incre ment cf wealth over that of the preceding year that is the equiva lent ft the avtrage value ot the annual output of thei world's g K1 mining indu-try. In eight yeirs the increase in the value of farm products amounted to Co per cent of the estimate put upon this portion of the national income in 1899. The ceusus of that year gave the aggregate value of pnducts from this particular in dustry at $4,710,700,000. Mean while the department of agricul ture has made annual estimate of wealth produced on the farms of the United States- That for 1908 placed the total at $7,848,000,000, showing a gain of $3,131,000,000, of an average of $348,000,000 of increase a yeaY. Those lacts speak for themselves as an influence not only in check ing the receding tide of curtailment in ot'ier branches of industry, says tlie Wall Street Journal, but a!.-o as a le iven which cannot fur any rer.t length of time be kept fr-,:i increasing the elasticity of demand for manufactured commod ities mid for transportation. For this reason the faith of the optimist is not in vain so long os it is based upon the increment of an nual farm wealth which, though it may be held in reserve" for a while, must under existing conditions of advanced pric.-s for f rm products in due time seek the market with an effectiveness that will tell in every other branch of business.
