The Evolution of . I . . . . i
Household Remedies. ine unar8e oi me Money Brigade j
The modern patent medioine bmi
ncss is the natural outgrowth of the
old-time household remedies.
In the early history of this country,
EVERY FAMILY HAD ITS HOME
MADE MEDICINES. Herb teas,
bitters, laxatives and tonics, were to be
found in almost every house, compound
ed by the housewife, sometimes assisted
by the apothecary or the family doctor.
Such remedies as picra, which was
aloes and quassia, dissolved in apple
brandy. Sometimes a hop tonic, made
of whiskey, hops and bitter barks. A
score or more of popular, home-made
remedies were thus compounded, the
formulae for which were passed along
from house to house, sometimes written,
sometimes verbally communicated.
The patent medicine business is a
natural outgrowth from this whole
some, old-time custom In the begin
ning, some enterprising doctor, im
pressed by the usefulness of one of
these home-made remedies, would take
it up, improve it in many ways, manu
facture it on a large scale, advertise it
mainly through almanacs for the home,
and thus it would become used over a
large area. LATTERLY THE HOUSE
HOLD REMEDY BUSINESS TOOK
A MORE EXACT AND SCIENTIFIC
FORM
Peruna was originally one of these
old-time remedies. It was used by the
Mennonites, of Pennsylvania, before it
was offered to the public for sale. Dr.
Hartman, THE ORIGINAL COM
POUNDER OF FERUNA, is of Men
nonite origin. First, he prescribed it
for his neighbors and his patients.
The sale of it increased, and at last he
established a manufactory and fur
nished it to the general drug trade.
Peruna is useful in a great many
climatic ailments, such as coughs, colds,
sore throat, bronchitis, and catarrhal
diseases generally. THOUSANDS OF
FAMILIES HAVE LEARNED THE
USE OF FERUNA and its value in the
treatment of these ailments. They
have learned to trust and believe in
Dr. Hartman' s judgment, and to rely
on his remedy, Peruna.

Week's Cleverest Cartoon by Johnson, in the New York Evening Journal.
SENATOR LA FOLETTE
NAMES RICH MEN WHO
RULE THE UNITED STATES
B. G. Dun A Co.'s Weekly Rovlow
of Trade says:
Trade reports Indicate a little
more activity and the percentage of
Idle machinery decreases, but mote
reductions In wages and dividends
show that the process of readjust
ment will take some time. Inactiv
ity continues In the New EnglanJ
footwear Industry, factories runnlni
on short time as a rule. Many cltlc:;
report an output of 40 per cent, or
full capacity, and shipments through
Boston are about 25 per cent, below
n year ago. Best news Is received
from Chicago and St. Louis, where
liberal orders are received for fu
ture delivery. Some Increase Is re
ported in tho local Jobbing trade In
spring lines. Leather is more active
nlthough some lines are dull, and
many tanneries are practically shut
down. A firmer feeling in the hid
market Is not accompanied by man;
actual changes In prices, but largei
sales have reduced packers stock)!
Bradst reefs says:
Improvement In sentiment and lu
actual demand continues, but It pro
ceeds under the check rein of con
servatlsm, which limits buying ti
small lots of stnple goods. Sprina
jobbing trade has apparently passed
Its zenith, with n total trade lnrgcr
perhaps than was expected some
month ago, but smaller by far that,
a year ago. Fall trade Is four to sli
weeks late In opening up. As hither
to, the chief activity has been in drj
goods and allied lines, especially mil
linery, whjch, so far as spring trade
preparations are concerned, makes
relatively one of the best showings.

Rockefeller and Morgan He Puts in a Class by Themselves,
With Three Lists Following in the Order of
Importance in the Financial System.
Washington, D. C. "Along with this enormous increase
!n trust power has gone a steady process of centralization in the
;ontrol of that power until now the entire situation is dominated
by the Standard Oil-Morgan combination.
"The old fights between these two great powers have been laid
iside. Mr. Morgan's picture adorns the wall of the inner room of the
Rockefellers at No. 28 Broadway. In combination to-day, they are
working together to gather In the smaller powers.
"Mr. Hill has been taught that he must not oppose the big
jnes. Standard Oil got in on the Great Northern ore deal.
The Gould interests are being swallowed by the combine.
Morse and Heinze were neatly pocketed during the recent panic.
The Smelter Trust was given a drubbing and started in the
same direction. ...
"The Vanderbilts can no longer retain their important control and
themselves see the handwriting on the wall." .
Thus spoke Senator La Follette In
!he third and final installment of his
memorable speech against the Al
Irlch Currency bill.
Flings Charge Back at Critics.
His assertion that the Industries of
the whole country are controlled by
fewer than 100 men had been at
tacked as sensational.
He took up the charge and flung It
back in the teeth of his critics.
On the contrary, he declared, he
had been ton conservative a much
imaller number of men rnle the na
tion's wealth.
The Senator quoted John Moody
!o show an enormous growth In trust
:onsolidatlon and capitalization In
tour years. In 1904 Mr. Moody
placed the capitalization of tho In
dustrial franchises and railroad
trusts at over $20,000,000,000. That
.mount had Increased more than
111,000,000,000, or more than fifty
live per cent. The 3 1 ,000.000,000,
le said, did not represent the 11mm
:lal combinations, banks, trust and
.nsurance companies.
Mr. La Follette named as next af
ter Morgan and the Rockefellers a
(roup of fourteen men, who, he said,
a .-re "big operators and men of large
power and Interests In their own
ights."
In Harmony Witb "Big Two."
These men, he said, find their best
Interests "In working In harmony
with Morgan and Standard Oil." No
;ombinatlon which they could form
imoug themselves or with others
;ould cope with that power, he de
;lared. Here are the fourteen:

A second class of men In the list
were the "stars of lessor magnitude,"

work In with the comblDe. and a few
of the higher rank of attorneys and

group follows:

ris. Third Group of Financiers.
Of the third group. Including the
rest of the list, Senator La Follette
said'
"While some of them exercised
large power and held many director
ships, it was a delegated power exer
cised, by them in a mere represents- '
tive capacity. This part of the list
follows:
"Edwin 8. Mnrston, G. W.
Perkins, John S. Sterling, Otto

ley." The net result of the speech was
another victory for La Follette. Tie
demanded a Congressional commls-
slou to consider currency reform leg
islation In order that Congress may
be assisted In promoting the enact
ment of a general currency law In the
next session. At the end of the
speech Senator Beverldge arose and
Inquired or Senator Aldrlcn what he
thought of the plan.
Mr. Aldrich said that the present ,
currency bill made no pretense of em
bracing banking reform, and added
that before this Congress adjourni
legislation would be passed providing
for just such a commission. I

By W. 8. Rosslter.
Tho use of products of human In
genuity Is largely the result of edu
cation and habit. Even In tho most
civilized nations the process of In
troducing new devices and inventions
seem to conform to a kind of natural
law which provides a continuous but
exceedingly deliberate progress.
Were It possible to step back Into
the reign of Queen Elizabeth and
offer for sale, after full explanation
of their purpose and value, those
conspicuous Inventions of our time
whlrh add luxury to the home and
fnrllltnte business, the experiment
would prove merely a case of times
out of Joint. It is probable that the
queen and her court would be Inter
ested and diverted, but doubtless they
would Insist upon the presence of the
supernatural, purchase little, and
continue to live as their age pre
scribed. Even in our own period foremost
In enlightened progress we require
time to educate ourselves to the gen
eral use of new devices, however es
sential they ultimately prove to be.
Before the Invention of the telegraph,
communication with others at a dis
tance was aocomplls .ed by either
writing a letter or Journeying in per
son; It required years to educnte the
public to the use of a third alterna
tive for communication and to think
first of a telegram. When at length
men were educated to regard tele
graphy as the first essential In quick
communication, the telephone ap
peared. Another period of education
was then necessary, and two decades
passed before the public placed this
fourth alternative at the head of the
list and learned always and every
where to think first of the telephone.
Even the art of printing has con
formed to the law of deliberate ad
vance. The progress of printing,
though continuous, was exceedingly
slow for three hundred and fifty
years, and, although the volume oi
printed matter has Increased much
more rapidly during the last half
century, responsive to the conditions
of our age, the use of printing Is still
largely a matter of habit and educa
tion, varying widely In different na
tions, and even among the various
States of our own republic. This fart
Is Illustrated by the expenditures of
State governments for official print
ing, which show differences so great
as to be explainable only by the habit
of the sparing or of the liberal use
of printed matter. The 3tate of New
York, for example, has long been
foremost among all the States in the
production of printing; in 1900 the
State government expended $654,
330.5 3 for official printing, while tha
State officials of Tennessee, a State
In which printing Is a minor industry
and much less a factor in dally life,
expended In the same year but $S,
136.38. The proportion, therefore,
of official printing to population was
twenty times ns grsat In New York as
In Tennessee.
On the whole, however, the ad
vance of the printing In the United
States during the last fifty years,
which may be set as the period of
greatest industrial activity, has been
so great and far-reaching as to place
the Industry among the leaders.

How few pcoplo there are who arc
not afraid of snakes. Not long ago
a harmless little garter snake fell on
the wheel of an automobile which
was being driven by n woman. The
woman promptly fainted and the car,
left to Its own resources, ran Into a
stone wall and caused a serious acci
dent. The bite of a poisonous snake
needs prompt attention. Mrs. K. M.
Flshel, Route No. 1, Box 40, Dills

when bitten by a large snake.
"One August 29. 1906, I was bitten
on the hand twice by a large copper
head snake. Being a distance from any
medical aid, as n last resort 1 used
Sloan's Liniment, and to my astonish
ment found It killed all pain and was
the means of saving my life. I am

Seelii); Nearby Things.
Professor W. D. Scott sounds a
note of warning about the increasing
UBe of the eyes for reading and the
Inspection of small nearby objects.
This especially affects school chil
dren. Professor Scott says that the
human eye was evolved for distant
vision, and in Its structure is rela
tively poorly suited for nearby vision.
The Increase of all sorts of printing
augments the trouble every day, and
"all things seem to be conspiring to
make us use our eyes more and more
for the very thing for which they
are the most poorly adapted. " There
Is no doubt much reason In this, but
could the world banish Its printing
presses and retain its civilization?

that some criminals would be ac

Instead of to the electric chair or gal

ties and eccentricities ot the mind
could then be brought forward to
show Irresponsibility. With all due
