resenting the four seasons. They
are generally personated by beautiful

her form lissom and graceful. Her
cheeks flush with health and there
breathes from the canvas the impress
sion Of radiant health.
1t Is true we sometimes see our
young women in such state OF health
in the spring time; but it is the ex-
ception. Depression and languor are
generally in evidence and the droop-
ing, listless figure of the school girl,
the dragging step OF the housewife,
are seen in nearly every home. Per-
feet health is rare in any season, but
this is especially so in the spring.
The great majority Of the people need
tonic in the spring. There are a
great many tones and they are all
taken by the people TO a greater OF
less extent. But the one that seems
most popular at this time OF the year
is Pe-ru-na. 1t strengthens the weary
body, invigorates the nerves and
clears the mind. 1t leaves no bad eff
