A scoURGE OF LA GRIPPE.
Is Raging Everywhere, Devastating City,
Town, and Country Alike.

Nothing equal to II has ever been known.
We have had la grippe before in this coun-
try In several well-detined epdemics. but
not as we are having IL now. Every body,
every where. has 1t, or is expecting to have
1t. In every paper we read of It, Every
one we meet speaks Of 1t Perhaps the
worst feature about la grippe Is that II is
almost sure to leave consequences behind 1t
which are far worse than the original dis
ease. But 1t could not have been otherwise
than that some things have been learned
during these sieges with la grippe. Untold
thousands have learned these things but
still greater multitude perhaps have these
things yet to learn.
First, that Pc ru.na taken before each
meal and at bedtime will protect anyone
from having la grippe. Second, that Peru
ma taken every hour during the acute stage
of la grippe will shorten its duration and
prevent the long train OF disagreeabe con-
sequences which follow the acute attack
Third, that in cases where Peru-na has
not been. used during the acute stage
and the victim finds himself dragging
out miserable existence from the dam
age to his system accomplished by la
grippe, he has only to take Pe-ru.na accord
ing to the directions on the bottle to realize
a speedy and complete cure. The explana-
ton of this is that la grippe is epidemic
catarrh Pe.ru-na will cure catarrh where
ever located. 1t will cure catarrh of every
variety and stage Therefore 1t will cure
la grippe, which is simply the epidemic
variety Of acute catarrh. During such
wioter as this no one should be without
copy of DR.. Hartman's latest book which
treats fully of lagrippe. acute catarrb,
chronic catarrh, coughs, colds, bronchitis,
consumption, and all other climatic diseases
of winter. Sent free to any address by the

The success of ex President Harrison's
articles in the The Ladies' Home Journal
has beer so pronounced that three addition
al ones will be given. These are likely to
prove the most interesting of all that Gen
eral Harrison has written, in the sense that
they will be more personal. His first paper
will show that "a Day With the President
at His Desk" means giving gimpses of the
President in his private office. His second
article will deal with "The Social Life of the
President" which will cover the Presidents
obligatory social duties and his part in great
state functions. The last article will go in
to the presidents domestic life and portray
The Domestic Side Uf the White House."
All these articles will be specially ilustrat-
ed This will be the first time that an ex
president or the United States has ever
written of his Office and of his home. The
articles Will all appear in early issues of
The Ladies' Home Journal.
