RUN ON THE BANK
 WIPED IN THE BUD
Unsuccessful Attempt to Injure the Institution Conducted
 by CoIored People

An unsuccessful attempt has been made to cause run on the Alabama Penny Saw irgs Bank, the institution conducted by colored people in Twentieth street. and has served to prove the little bank in excellent condition.
 As soon as the rumor, which is said t., have been inaugurated by enemies of the institution, reached their ears the officers of the bank took means to prevent any serious consequences. In discussing the incident yesterday B. B. Hudson, cashier of the bank, said:
 "Yes, there was little furry that could scarcely be called run today, but we paid out to depositors but a little more than we did this time last year, and you know nearly every one draws something for Christmas.
 We first heard of the rumor yesterday, and although we knew it could not injure us, we immediately prepared ourselves to meet any emergency. g.
 While I would not like to see 1t nor think that such a thing will ever occur, believe that we are fully prepared to meet a genuine run on our funds. During the panic of 1893, when our institution was yet in its infancy, we stood like an oak. Such things do not worry us now. We can easily meet all demands that may be made upon our funds.
 We have traced the report and run 1t down. It originated with certain parties who felt that they had grievances against us growing out of a business matter. We anticipate no further trouble, as our de- positors know that they are perfectly safe. We hay. recevel assura, ces from other banks that we can secure all the cash we may need in the event of runc upon us, but we are amply able to meet any and all demands ourselves"

There is no other disease so many sided in it's i'll effects, so insidious in its approach, so tenacious in its hold upon the system, as Ia grippe. Once there, ii stays until it is cured. La grippe is one of the ills that time will not cure.
 The after-effects of la grippe do not locate in any particular organ. Ii amounts to general irritability of the mucous membranes of the whole body a tlabbiness and paleness of the mucous membrane. Sometimes there is an over- amount of thin, watery mucous secreted, and at other times there is dryness of the mucous surfaces.
 There is no remedy in the world that meets the conditions produced by la grippe better than the remedy Peruna. Peruna strengthens as it renovates, soothes while it stimulates, heals as it expurgates.
 Peruna is not a purgative, or cathartic, or sedative, or stimulant, nor vegetable or mineral poison. It reaches the source of all diseases of the mucous membranes by it's action on the vaso-motor system of nerves.
 The following are samples of the let ters received by Dr. Hartman concern ing the cures Peruna is making.

 and Winter Catarrh.

TN EVERY county of the civilized l world the Sisters of the Good Shep- herd are known. Not only do they minister to the spiritual and intellectual needs of the charges committed to their care, but they also minister to their bodily needs.
 Whenever coughs or colds, la grippe or pneumonia make their appearance among the children these Sisters are not >disconcerted, but know exactly the rem- edies to apply.
 With so many children to take care of and to protect from climate and disease these wise and prudent Sisters have found Peruna a never-failing safeguard.

I 1Sfied that l purchased another bottle and followed your directions, which you furnish with every bottle, and am glad to say that it has cured me. I shall cer- tainly recommend the Peruna to all my friends. ."-Henry Distin.
 Mrs. Jane Gift, of Hebbardsville, O., writes the following: "I think would have been dead long ago if it had not been for Peruna. Six years ago l had h grippe very bad. The doctor came to see me every day, but I gradually grew worse. I told my husband 1 thought would surely die if I did not get relief soon.
 "One day I picked up the newspaper and accidentally found testimonial of woman who had been cured of Ia grippe by Peruna. I told my husband 1 wanted to try it.. He went directly to the drug store and got bottle of Peruna. I could see the improvement in very short time and was soon able to do my work. I continued using it until was entirely cured.
 "I have induced great many to try the medicine and all have had the same result. l have used it in my family for my husband and children for colds and la grippe. I would not be without it in the house. I really think it has added years to my life, and I feel I have no one to thank but God and Dr. Hartman. If other sufferers are induced to try this wonderful medicine they will join me in singing its praises."-Mrs. Jano Gift.
