NERVOUS PROSTRATION
Causes Headache, Dizziness ] and
Sleeplessness.

One Of the most dangerous and com.
is known as sunstroke. The prostration
caused by overheating the body does
not always result in sunstroke but more
commonly in milder forms of depression,
such as nervous headache, dizziness,
faintness, sleeplessness, palpitation,
mental confusion, abundant clear urine,
creeping rigors, flashes Of heat, and
shortness of breath at the least exertion.
All of the above names are symptoms
Of acute prostration most prevalent dur
ing the month Of July than at any other
season of the year. Even people who
have the most vigorous health are liza
BILE to attacks of prostration during the
hot waves of early summer. sa~ -
The only safe course to take Is to
keep the blood pure, digestion good and
sleep regular Noremedy equals in all
respects, Peruna. for this purpose. A
dose of Peruna before each meal dur.
ing the hot season Is q safeguard OF
priceless value.
Especially those who are in the least
subject to nervous prostration should
not neglect to provide themselves with
Peruna, the greatest of all nerve and
brain restoratives known to the medical
world. Complete directions for use on
each bottle.

Cows Taste In Music.

am not an agriculturist, but for ten
years I lived with an uncle who kept
cows and milkmaids during that period.
1t was noticed that certain milkmaids
could draw more milk than others. Our
most characteristic COW was Trieste, so
named on account Of her sad bearing,
and it required the most touching of bor-
der songs to prevail upon her to give q
decent supply Of milk. The old woman
who generally MIXED her always wound
up with the Land of the Leap to get
the creamy ending Of the milking process.
A new hand once tackled Trieste with
sea songs and dire consequences. An
other COW was called the Evangelist on
account Of her intense hatred for psalm
tunes and Sankey's hymns. She. strange
to say, preferred rollicking tunes. Can
you account for this?-London Chronicle.
