Pemna is known from the Atlantic
to the Pacific. Letters of congratula
tion and commendation testifying to
the merits of Peruna as a catarrh rem
edy are pouring in from every state in
the Union. Dr. Ilartman is receiving
hundreds of such letters daily. All
classes write these letters, from the.
highest to the lowest.
The outdoor laborer, the indoor arti
san, the clerk, the editor, the states
man, the preacher all agree that
Peruna is the catarrh remedy of the
age. Hie stace and rostrum, recogniz
ing catarrh as their greatest enemy, are
especially enthuisastic in their praise
and testimony.
Any man who w ishes perfect heal'h
must be entirely free from catarrh.
Catarih is well nigh universal. Ptru
na is the best safeguard known.
A Letter From the Ex-Governor of
Oregon.
The ex-governor of Oregon is an ar
dent admirer of Peurna. He keeps it
continually in the house. In a letter
to Dr. Ilartman, he says:

That the remedy Is sometimes worse
than the disease Is again shown by an
Incident chronicled In the New York
Times. A prominent politician has a
wife who Is a model of domestic care
fulness. She has a talent for making
bread, and takes great pride In having
her loaves turn out well.
One evening she had set the batch of
dough to rise in the kitchen and was
reading In the parlor, when her (i-year-old
boy came running to her, crying,
"Mamma, mamma, there's a mouje
jumped into your bread-pan!"
The fcood woman sprung from her
peat.
"Did you take him out?" she asked,
frantically.
"No'm, but I done just as good. I
threw the cat In, and she's digging
after him to beat the band!"
Christian Science.
In the Uaited States there are about
400 Christian Science churches, with
about 100,000 adherents. According to
Mrs. Eddy, its founder, the church is
making tremendous strides in popular

A Riitish otlicer, in his expense list
on government service, put down:

The ollicer was requested to re

following explanation:
"While executing public duty re

VThe Item does not represent re

Amid a rain of bullets that descended

It was in this second attack that

TiPKKtrn In London.
It is calculated that 4,000 persons
make a living in London by begging
and that their average income amounts
to over $1,500,000 a year. Last year
1,925 persons were arrested for beg
ging In the streets, of whom more than
1,500 were sentenced to terms of im
prisonment varying from one week to
three months. Many of these objects
of charity were found in possession of
sums of money and even bank books
6howing very handsome deposits.

BLOOD
POISON
THE BLACK FLAG
The black fla is an emblem of horror and dread. When it is hoisted
by an army, the order lias gone forth that "no quarter" will be given, ev
erything must be destroyed. Helpless women and children, as well as oppos
ing soldiers, meet the same fate, and a trail of desolation, suffering ami
death is left behind. Contagious Blood Toison is the black flag of the great
army of disease. This vile disorder is known as the blackest and most hide
ous of all human afflictions, overthrowing its victims and crushing out the
life. It is no respecter of persons; no matter how pure the blood may be
or how innocently the disease is contracted, when this awful virus enters the)
circulation the hideous, hateful and humiliating symptoms begin to appear,
and the sufferer feels that his very presence is polluting and contaminating.
Usually the fir.st sign of the disease is a little sore or nicer, but as the blood
becomes more deeply poisoned the severer symptoms are manifested, the
mouth and throat ulcerate, the glands in the groins swell, a red rash breaks
out on the body, the hair and eyebrows come out, and often the body is cov
ered with copper-colored spots, pustular eruptions and sores. In its worst
Btagcs the disease affects the nerves, attacks the bones and sometimes causes
tumors to form on the brain, produc

but unless the virus is driven from
the blood the awful taint is handed
down to offspring, and they are its
Innocent victims. Blood Poison is in

S. S.S., the great vegetable medicine, is the conqueror of this vile disease. It
goes down to the very root of the trouble and cures by cleansing the blood of
every particle of the poison. S. S. S. does not hide or cover up anything
but clears the entire circulation of the
