ter of personal privilege, made an emphatic
denial of the statement that his resolution,
adopted by the senate yesterday, was in

suited the sugar planters. and, a matter
of fact. they were known, as a body, to be
opposed to the ratification of the peace
treaty.
A bill extending the "cordia appreciation"

desolation of the recent storm, there has
been drawn out a sweet and gracious hui
manity in the hearts and conduct of those
who have been the g'vers to the needy; and
that the sweet feelings of sympathy and
mercy on behalf of the rich have manifest

Mr.. >McEnery of Louisiana, Then rose TO
a question of personal privilege. During
the debate on his resolution yesterday some
statements were made with respect to
changes in the resolution when II was intro
duced that would seem to reflect upon Mr.
McEnery. Mr.. Lindsay, OF Kentucky, had
said that upon examination he had found
/ that 1t was not the same resolution he had
supposed Mr.. McFnery was going to Of
fer. Mr.. Tillman, of South Carolina, had
said the resolution had been amended "all

grippe. All remedies seemed alike in
adequate. AS soon as DIR. Hartman an
nounced that it was his belief that the
after-effects of la grippe was simplysys-
temic catarrh, a great advance was made
in the treatment of these cases. It now
only remained to find q reliable remedy
for systemic catarrh.
Here new difficulty arose. Catarrh
had been regarded by many physicians
as local disease and treated solely bv
local remedies. Such physicians knew
of no systemic remedy for catarrl
Other physicians regarded catarrh as
blood disease and had been in the habi.
of treating it with blood medicines
which could be of no possible use in sys-
temic catarrh.
For time Pe-ru-na enjoyed the dis
tinction of being the only systemic CO
tarrh remedy known. 1t was not ever
claimed by anyone that there was an
other remedy for this exasperating con.
dition. Since then, however, a great
many remedies have been proposed for
systemic catarrh, and great deal of
valuable time wasted in experimenting
with other remedies. But it still re-
mains true that Pe-ru-na is the only spe-
cif1c remedy for the after-effects of la
grippe. The demand for this remedy,
in consequence of the present epidemic
of la grippe, is enormous. e
The beneficial effect of Pe-ru-na in
these cases is often SO prompt as to APP
pear magical. Every mucous membrane
of the body feels the effect of the first
dose, and it's beneficent effect continues
until the disease is entirely eradicated.
Everyone should read DR. Hartman's
latest lecture on la grippe. This lecture
