knows this, but few know how
they escape. Many believe that
the doctor has some charm or anti.

Hartman lately made the truth of
this matter public, that all might
realize its benefit.
Contagious diseases are convey.
ed by minute organisms known as
disease germs. These germs find
their entrance to the system
through the mucous membrane. If
the mucous membrane is healthy,
they cannot get into the system.
If the mucous membrane is affect.
ed by catarrh the germs find easy
access. Catarrhal secretiOns fur.
nish exactly the material upon
which they thrive and multiply.
TO get rid of the catarrh, and thus
preserve the mucous membrane
healthy, is the only way to be safe
from contagious diseases. This
explains why it is that some peo.
pie catch diseases easier than 9th
ers. Every one is exposed just
the same. Not every one, howev-
er, falls a victim to contagious dis
eases. A disease germ cannot Ell.
ter the system through a perfectly
healthy mucous membrane. Doc
tors know this, and therefore
guard against it. This is all the
secret there is about it.
The best cure or preventive
known to The medical profession up
to date for catarrh in all it's condi-
tiOns is Peru na. During the un-

an unnecessary hazard for any one
to neglect to guard himself trom

WELLMAN NOTES.
BY SAwDUST.

Fine weather, and farmers seem to
be taking advantage of it, as there
were very few farmers in our town last
week.
Our people are generally coming out
from under the grasp of sickness.
We are sorry to learn that old Moth
er Depriest, who was sent to the asy-
lum short time ago, is gradually de-
clining instead of improving.
We have learned how to keep young
men quiet in time of preaching.
Preachers interest your congregation,
and they will be still.
Our so called bad boys were kept so
still Sunday night by Rev. Mr. Havers
on the subject: "Ye are saved by
faith" that you could hardly hear one
move foot.
Mr.. James Tyler was welcome visit.
on to Wellman last Sunday, and took
an active part in assisting DIR. Longi
