A lA"tter From the Kxecntive Olhce of Crcgon. Fe-rn-na is known from the Atlantic ' tinnally in the house. In a recent let- to the Pacific, letters of congratula tion and commendation testifying to the merits of l'e-rn-na as a catarrh remedy are pouring in from every state in the union. 1'r. Hartmait is receiving hun dreds of such letters daily. All classes write these letters, from the highest to the lowest. The outdoor laliorer, the indoor arti san, the clerk, the-editor, the states man, the preacher all agree that l'o-rn-na is the ratarrh remedy of the age. The stage and rostrum, recognizing catarrh as their greatest enemy, are especially enthusiastic in their praise and testimony. Any man who wishes perfect health must be entirely free from catarrh. Catarrh is well-nigh universal; almost omnipresent. l'e-ru-na is the only absolute safeguard known. A cold is the beginning of catarrh. To prevent colds, to cure colds, is to cheat ctitarrh out of its victims, l'e-ni-na not only cures catarrh, but prevents. Every household shntild be supplied w ith this great remedy for coughs, colds and so forth. The governor of Oregon is an ardent admirer of l'e-ru-na. lie keeps it rou SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES.
