Census Trustees* Blanks.
The State Superindent in a let-
ter dated April 7 stated that the
census blanks would be ready for
distribution within the next two
weeks. I shall be glad for the
census enumerators to call for!
the blanks at the office because
it costs too much postage to send
them by mail. It would not cost
so much to send the blanks alone,
but all of the enumerators prefer
.
to have last, years reports, and,
since these contain written mat-
ter, the pntire package must be
sent by first class mail. This
makes it cost four times as much
as the blank alone would cost;
besides, last yea/’s reports should
remain on file in the office, but
they such a great help to the en-
umerators that I send them with
the blanks.
A Nervous Wreck
■i
Six Years Old.
Egiday afternoon, from 2:00 to
5:0b, the cottage of Dr. and Mrs.
W. Scott Sheley .was gay with
the laughter and merriment of
childish voices, their little son,
Master William Arthur Newbury
Sheley,^ celebrating -'his sixth
birthday anniversary. About 35
little folks were gathered to see
that the occasion was fittingly
observed, and the kindergarten
table and, chairs were used to
J seat the guests for the serving of
' cream and cake. Violets gave
the decorations for the table, the
purple hues being,combined with
blue, for the birthday cake, which
occupied a prominent position,
had blue tapers topping it. Each
little girl wore an apron of pink.
Popping mottoes gave much
amusement, and the drawing for
the fortune*telling emblems with-
in the cake aroused no end of ex-
citement. Misses Young and
Williams directed^ the games,
which were largely of kinder-
garten association, and before
departure eac_h guest drew from
a large pan a'wrapped article, a
toy, being a souvenir of the hap-
py occasion. * -* *

Peruna
Is A
Tonic and
Strength
Builder
So Says
'Mrs. Frank
Stroebe, R. F.
D. 1, Appleton,
>Wis. Her letter
reads: “I befran using -Peruna a
few month,s ago when my health and
strength were all gone, and I was
nothing but a nervous -tvreck. Could
not sleep, eat or rest .properly, and
felt no desire to live.
“Three bottles of Peruna made
me look at life in a. different light,
as I began to regain my lost
strength. Ayhlle my ’recovers’' took
nearly four months, at the end oC
that time'I was better than I ever
had been before. I had a splendid
color and never weighed rr^ore in my
life. - , V
“I .certainly think Peruna is with-
out a rival as a tonic and strength
builder, and It has my endorsement.”
Mr. Charles Brown, Ri R. 4, Box 79,
Rogersville/ Tenn., writes: “I have
tried many different remedies, but
have fouhd that Peruna is the great-
est tonic on earth, and a perfect.sys-
tem builder.”
