FACTS.

Those contemplating trip westward
will certainly do we'll to carefully con.
suit the time tables Of the Baltimore and
Ohio road. Its celebrated fast trains,
its sure connections, and rates always as
low as the lowest, make it beyond all
controversy the best line west. Colo
nists are carried in first class cars on fast
trains, and every possible care is taken
to insure comfort and convenience.
Trains run through without change Of
sars to Chicago, where direct connection
is made with al leading lines to the
west, northwest and southwest, making
hut single change of cars to Iowa,
K.,psss, Nebraska, Texas, Minnesota.
sc. No other line can offer such advan-
tages as the Baltimore and Ohio.-Its
costs but very little time and trouble
to learn this. and in the end may lead
to the saving Of much of both as we'll as
money. Above all things do not pur-
chase tickets before having talk or re-
ceiving letter from one of the B. & o.
Agents. A letter addressed to W. e.

and has been sufferer from chronic
catarrh, which had become quite often.
sive. When he came to DR.. Hartman, two
months ago. he was told it would take six
months to cure him. But he has pro-
gressed beyond all expectations, and
nearly all signs Of the disease have dis
appeared. Before being treated he could
not breathe out Of the nose, and now he
has perfect control of the nasal organ.
PERUNA did the business.
James Dunn, of 1870 Gay street, St.
Louis, has suffered from catarrh since
1870. The gentleman told the reporter
the following straightforward story of
his case. 81 took the disease in Mem
phis. 1t commenced in my head and
extended to my throat, and bad cough
followed. went to number of ply
sicians, and they told me my trouble was
liver disease, and one said it was palpita-
tion of the heart that caused the cough.
For the last year have been practically
worthless. could not ascend a flight of
stairs without suffering from shortness of
breath and fast beating of the heart, and
my appetite was very defective. After
eating / often coughed SO hard that L
would throw up everything in my stom-
ach. could not walk any distance with
out painting. Five weeks ago I went
under the care of DR.. Hartman. and now
my cough has disappeared and feel like
new man." PERUNA was his treat
ment.
Next came George Sauerbaum, residing
Mt tI979 Carr street, St. Louis, who is an
old patient of DIR. Hartman. He stated
that he had suffered most intensely from
chronic catarrh Of the head and lungs, but
Is now almost cured, his lungs being en-
tirely well and his head greatly improved.
The gratitude OF this gentleman was
almost boundless, and he expressed it to
the reporter in the strongest terms, say
ing PERUNA will cure any disease"
