THE RIGHT NOW Winter is really here. You are constantly catching colds and there is not a home but hears the winter cough. We are trying to get something to relieve you of these troubles, which are almost inevitable at this time of the year. It can be safely t-aid that nine-tenths of the people have a cold sometime dur ing the winter. There is one remedy which will prevent colds and cough and relieve them with certainty when contracted. This remedy is Peruna. Taken with regularity during the winter months, it will entirely prevent colds, coughs, la grippe, bron chitis or pneumonia. You cannot afford to run these dangers. It will mean a hardship to you if you are laid up for the winter. Why not insure yourselves against these troubles by securing a bottle of Peruna and commencing regular treat ment? It will mean that winter will not be as dangerous to you as if you had not fully protected yourself by the use of Peruna Have you Irlfil IV mini Tahletst They ore tint* for those wlio prefer (hem to the liquid. REAL ESTATE TODJIVK REALTY TR A \ SPICKS Aniens to-day's realty transfers were two properties in Reed township which were bought by tlie Northern Central Kail road from Edwin X. S. McCarry.

The report that the kesher Isiael Synagogue was once more considering the purchase of the Taber nacle Baptist Church could not be con confirmed. Nor could the story be verified to the effect that the sale of SOT North Sixth street by S. O.

The Mi-o-na people don't believe that a medicine ought to be paid for unless it does the user some good. And so Mi-o-na is always sold under a positive guarantee to relieve dyspepsia or to refund the money. simply leave 50 cents on deposit with your druggist, and if, after you have used the box of Mi-o na, you decide that it has done you no good, all you have to do is to tell him so ; n<l he will return your money. Hund;eas of people can tell how they h*'-'e been relieved of stomach agonies by using this remarkable rem edy. II is not simply a food digester; it is a medicine that puts all of the digestivt organs into normal condition and gifes ruddy, glowing, vigorous health. A change for the better will be seen) after the first few doses of Mi-o-nai and its continued use will soon giM<- the power to eat most any thing at) any time and not suffer dis tress afwrward. Mi-o-|a is sold under a positive guarautie to refund the money if it dues nc: stop all stomach distress. This is .he strongest proof that can be offer* 1 as lo the merit of the medi cine.

GENTLE RUBBING HELPS VARICOSE VEINS Rubbing th« swollen veins nightly for about two minutes with a gentle up ward stroke brings benefit to sufferers and is mighty good advice, says an authority. After the rubbing, which should always be toward the heart, because the blood in the veins flows that way, apply Emerald Oil (full strength) with brush or hand. Try this simple home treatment for a few days and improvement will be no ticed. then continue until \elns are re duced to normal. It is very concen trated and penetrating and can be ob tained at any modern drug store. It is so powerful that it also reduces Goitre and Wens.

Admiral Asserts Big Navy Should Be Rushed Washington, Feb. 29.—New con struction for the navy should be llir> ited this year oi\ly by the country's facilities to build. Rear Admiral Aus tin M. Knight, president of the Navy War College, told the House Naval Committee yesterday. Admiral Knight said that battle cruisers and scouting craft were the things needed vitally to make the present fleet of dreadnaughts effective The facilities of the country should be strained immediately, he said, to i provide at least six battle cruisers and eight scouts. Nine battle cruisers j would be better, he thought, but with j six and 25,000 additional men the navy would be in efficient shape within two or three years, within the limits of its ! numbers. As a part of the 1917 program, the admiral urged that Culebra Island, off the eastern end of Porto Rico, and the farthest outpost on the road from i Europe to the Caribbean, should be made an impregnable fortress, where the fleet might lie based. Guam, in :the Pacific, he thought, should be similarly equipped, and each base i should have a huge floating dry dock.

I the lirst of the year nt <500,000 tons. one Indication of the mighty effect of the European war on the steel In dustry is shown in ilgures presented by the Bureau of Foreign and Do mestic Commerce which shows that the total foreign shipments in 1915 were 3,513,453 tons, an increase of 25 per cent, over the previous maximum established in 1913 and nearly 135 per cent, greater than the exports in 1914. As the total domestic and for eign shipments in 1915 were esti mated at 2 4,000,000 tons the exports were 14V6 per cent, of the whole as against 10 per cent, in ordinary years. The prosperity in the steel market has also spread to the pig iron indus try which is reviving after a period of depression. In the la«t ten days' sales in all distributing districts have aggregated 300,000 tons, more than hall of which was steel making iron. The total sales in February were in excess of 800,000 tons and since the first of January 1,250.000 tons. It Is pointed out also that the steel com panies generally manufacture their own pig metal and ure dependent upon the open market for only a frac tion of their requirements. About [one-foui'tli of the total production of FEBRUARY 20, 1916. pig iron in sold on the open market, ltrbniiixl Was Swift The production and consumption of pig iron last year was record-break ing and open market sales were in excess of 7,000,000 tons. Steel men predict that the 1916 production will surpass this record. The swift rebound in the whole steel and iron trade from the extreme depression v.-hlch it experienced In the months following the outbreak of the European war has caused a ferment of expectancy which Is being com pared to the feverish days of 1899. There is a good deal of talk about an inevitable reaction but as proof that no such reaction can come In the im mediate future It is pointed out that the estimated unfilled orders of all the steel companies aggregate 18,000,000 tons. The steel corporation subsidiaries have contributed 10,000.000 to this total, estimating nearly 2,000,000 tons as inter-company business. This means that the mill capacity of the country is under contract for nine months' production at the pesent time and large sales have been made for delivery over the first nuarter of 11917, ' , IT NEVER FAILS TO END MISERY OF PILES < "Hundreds of people in this vicin ity", says Peterson, "know of the' mighty healing powei - of PETER SON'S OINTMENT in eczema, salt rheum, old sores, itching skin and ul cers. They know it cures these ail ments—that It Is guaranteed to euro them." Now I want to say to every sufferer from piles, either blind, bleeding or itching, that I will guarantee that a 25 cent box of PETERSON'S OINT MENT will rid you of piles or your druggist will return your money. "For years I suffered terribly with itching and bleeding piles. X tried everything and despaired of ever getting rid of them. It gives me great pleasure to state that Peterson's Ointment entirely cured me, and I sincerely recommend It to all suffer ers.'—Yours truly, David A. Seymour* Supt. of Parks. Buffalo, N.
