Attention, Doctors.

Everybody knows that the life Of the
average physician is hard one. He IL
often compelled to ride great distances
through mud and rain for a merely nom-
iral fee. II is not fit nor proper for us to
condemn any physician for his work, but
we do assert that his practice can be made
easier, and he can effect more cures by
the proper and judicious use of PERUyA.
If he will only add this great remedy to
his list OF medicines he will find that his
usefulness will be greatly increased. Full
direction for its use Will be found in the
Ills of Life" and he should at once pro-
cure this valuable book.
n. ]. Wright, Business Agent Evening
Herald, Erie. Pa, says: "DR. HART
MANI can not but feel it my duty to
express to YOU my thanks for the great
benefit received from the use of your
medicines, PERUSA and MANALIN.
One bottle OF each placed me square on
my feet, after a sickness Of four weeks,
which confined me TO my bed, and then
left me lame ard crippled. Three DAYS
from the commencement Of the use Of
your remedies the cane was dispensed
with. and in a week I was perfectly we'll"
Mrs. Ellen Maynard, Oswego, Potter
county, Pa, writes "DR. HARTMAN.

am feeling quite well. The people say
your PEKUSA and MAEALIx are doing
miracle. do not take nearly so much
opium as did before
Joseph Thomas, East Brady, Pa,
writes l have used your PERUSA snd
MANALIS with good results. In the year
OF 1880 was so bad that I could scarcely
walk. 1 used PERUgA and MANALIy,
and am now rs healthy rs 1 have ever
been. have also recommended II to
several parties, and they have been much
benefited by it,
Mr.. G. II. Harris, New Vienna, Ohio,
writes "Our little girl was paralyzed
at thirteen months old, and we resorted
20 everything we could hear of for relief,
but she appeared 10 get but little better.
Hearing Of PERUTA we concluded 20 try
IL, and viii say IL has done her a great
deal Of good the first bottle apparently
giving aid and relief. We have used Il for
nervousness in other cases on other per.
sons and found IL a success. For general
debility. and in fact for any disease. we
don't think anything else can at all com
pare with II. We have used forty or fifty
bottles, and our house is never without
PERUNA. Our little girl is now eight
years old, and can run any place, was for
four years helpless. PKRUEA cured her,"

AYERS SAEsArARfLLA I'm many similar
cases. and he has never yet heard OF It's fail
urc to effect radical cure.
Some years ago one Of Mr.. LELASp's farm
laborers bruised his leg. Owing to the bad
state Of his blood, an ugly scrofulous swelling
or lump appeared on the injured limb. Hor-
r!bie itching of TIE akin, with burning and
dar'ing pains through the lump. made life
almost intolerable. Tho leg became enor-
mousiy enlarged, and running ulcers formed.

offensive matter. No treatment was Of any
avail until the man. By Mr.. LrLASp's direc-

healed the sores. removed the swelling, and
completely restored the limb to usc.

How a Girl Imposed on Her Mother.

About year ago Mrs. Eliza Mann, of Easton
Pa, received a note signed Theodore Oliver,
asking the loan of small sum of money.
Subsequently other letters asking for loans, and
all requests for money were complied with.
Later came letter proposing marriage, and a
ring was also sent, which Mrs. Mann accepted.
This continued until Spring, when letter was
received fixing the date of the marriage and at
the same time asking for loan of a dollar and
fifty-five cents to pay wash bill. The money
was sent and Mrs. Mann prepared for the we'd
ding. Other requests for loans were made from
time to time, and the money was always sent.
The wedding day came and passed without the
groom appearing, and after that Mrs. Mann
told intimate friends of the occurrence. She
said she had all of Mr.. divers letters, and that
she could prove his proposal. The matter be-
came public talk and finally reached the ears
of Theodore Oliver. who is prominent bust
ness man. He denied all knowledge of the
affair, and put detective on the case. The
result is Minnie Manu. the 14-year-old daugh-
ter of Mrs. Mann, on being questioned by the
detective, confessed that she wrote. all the let
tiers and signed Theodore divers name to them,
and that she obtained and spent all the money
which her mother supposed she was sending to
Mr.. Oliver. The girl obtained about $500 in
all, part of which she expended in jewelry and
other things, which she presented to her mother
in Mr.. divers name. The gentleman will not
press the matter.
