have been 3 well woman. People are
surprised so see me so well. tell them
that DR.. Hartman cured me with Peru
IA. My husband is eighty-two years
old. He takes Pe-ru-na every day and
says: DIR. Hartman and Pe-ru-na are
worth all the world 10 me- There are
three or fouI people here taking Peru
ma for rheumatic troubles, and like il so
much. There are a great many here
that use it altogether. I wish every
poor soul would try his medicine"
Good blood is the result OF good food,
well digested. Bad food, even though it
be well digested, can not make good
blood. Good food must be we'll digested
to make good blood. Therefore, diseased
nerves are traceable directly to poor
digestion, and poor digestion is directly
traceable to catarrh. With theslightest
catarrh of the stomach no one can have
good digestion.
Very few of the many women who
have catarrh of the stomach suspect
what their real trouble IS. They know
they belch after meals, have sour stom-
ach, n sensation of weight or heaviness,
a fullness, irregular appetite, drowsi-
ness, gnawing, empty sensations, occa-
sional psin-they all know this; but
they do not know that their trouble Is
catarrh Of the stomach. II they did
they would take Pe-ru-Da.
Pe-ru-na cures catarrh wherever To-
Gated. As soon as Pe-ru-na removes ca
tarrh from the stomach the digestion
becomes good, appetite regular, nerves
strong, and trouble vanishes. Pe-ru-ua
strengthens weak nerves, not by tenn
porariiy stimulating them, but by re-
moving the cause Of weak nerves-poor
digestion. This is the only cure that
lasts. Remove the cause: Nature will
do therest. Pc-ru-na removes the cause.

According to the latest survey, Che
Great Salt Lake is about 100 miles long.
with an average width of from twenty
five to thirty miles, though in soma
places its width is from fifty to sixty
miles, and the greatest depth Is found
to be some sixty feet. Its waters cen-
tain nearly Is per cent solid matter.
mostly salt and soda, with small pro-
portions of sulphur, llthia, and boraoio
acid. 1t Is wellknown fact that the
Atlantic ocean water holds but 3.5 PED
cent of solid material, Of which SAIL
contains s.6 per cent. In the Asfatfc
Dead Sea, the water contains 3.3 PEI
cent of solids, including less salt and
soda and much more magnesia, cal
cium and potassium than Salt Lake.
Another statement in this connection
is of interest, though not new. viz. that
hundreds of thousands of tons Of salt
are made by natural evaporation along
