Is Peruna Useful for Catarrh? Should a list of the ingredients of Po runa be submitted to any medical ex- Sert, of whatever Bchool or nationality, e would be obliged to admit without reserve that each one of them was of un doubted value in ohronio catarrhal dis eases, and had stood the test of many years' experience In the treatment oi such diseases. THERE CAN EE NO DISPUTE ABOUT THI3 WHAT EVER. Peruna is composod o f the most efficacious and universally used herbal remedies for catarrh. Every ingrodient of Poruna has a reputation of its own in the cure of some phase of catarrh. Peruna brings to the home the COM BIKED KNOWLEDGE OF SEVERAL SCHOOLS OF MEDICINE in the treat ment of catarrhal diseases; brings to the home the scientific skill and knowl edge o f the modern pharmacist ; and last but notleast, brings to the home the vast and varied experience of Dr. Hartman, in the use o f catarrh remedies, and in the treatment of catarrhal diseases. The fact is, chronio catarrh is a dis ease which is very prevalent Many thousand people know they have chronio catarrh. They have visited doctors over and over again, and been told that their case is one of chronic catarrh. It may be of the nose, throat, lungs, stomach or some other internal organ. There is no doubt as to the na ture of the disease. The only trouble is the remedy. This doctor has tried to cure them. That doctor has tried to prescribe for them. BUT THEY ALL FAILED TO BRING ANY RELIEF. Dr. Hartman's idea is that a catarrh remedy can be made on a large scale, as he is making it ; that it can be made honestly, of the purest drugs and oi the strictest uniformity. His idea k that this remedy can be supplied direct ly to the people, and no more be charged for it than is necessary for the handling of it No other household remedy so uni versally advertised carries upon the label the principal active constituents showing, that Peruna invites the full inspection of the critics.

Interrogated the city friend. "Yes," sighed Harker, as he took a firmer grip on the lawn mower and basket of seeds. "And I also hoard that It Is right up to date.

"One-half the world," remarked the man with the quotation habit, "doesn't know how the other half lives." "And It may also he stated without puncturing the truth," rejoined the wise guy, "that three-fourths of it doesn't know how it lives Itself." THE SOURCE OF ALtmSMASE Every part of the body la dependent on the blood for nourishment and Strength. When this life stream is flowing through the system la a Btate of purity and richness we are assured of perfect and uninterrupted health ; tecause pure blood i3 nature's safe-guard against disease. When, however, the body is fed on weak, impure or polluted blood, the system i3 deprived of its strength, disease germs collect, and the trouble is manifested in various ways. Pustular eruptions, pimples, rashes and the different skin affections show that the blood Is in a feverish and diseased conauion as a result of too much acid or the presence of eome irritating 'humor. Sores and Ulcers are the result of morbid, unhealthy matter in the blood, and Rheumatism, Ca tarrh, Scrofula, Contagious Blood Poison, etc., are all deep-seated blood disorders that will continue to grow worse as long as the poison remains. These impurities and poisons find their way into the blood in various ways. Often a sluggish, inactive condition of the system, bud torpid 6tate of the avenues of bodily waste, leaves the refuse and waste matters to sour and form uric and other acids, which are taken up by the blood and distributed throughout the circulation. Coming in contact with contagious diseases is another cause for the poisoning of the blood ; we also breathe the germs and microbes of Malaria into our lungs, and when these get into the blood in Sufficient quantity it becomes a carrier of disease instead of health. Some are so unfortunate as to inherit bad blood, perhaps the dregs of some old constitutional disease of ancestors is handed down to them and they are constantly annoyed and troubled with it.
