visitor in charge, Mrs. j. G. Murdoch,
and her assistants will be glad to well

rented for those interested in having a
Swedish working girls home for the
accommodation of those temporarily

Pe-ru-na cures catarrh wherever To-
Gated. Who is it that says Pe-ru-na will
cure catarrh wherever located? Doctors
say it, lawyers say it, preachers say it a

have tried it. The old and the young
