II am glad to call the attention of my
friends to Peruna. When that lansuld, tired
feeling comes over you, and your food no
longer tastes good, and small annoyances ir-
rltate you, Peruna will make you feel like
another person inside Of q week.
II have now used 1t for three seasons, and
find 1t very valuable and ef1cacous.''-Miss
Marie Coats.
Diseased nerves are traceable directly to
poor digestion. and poor digestion is directly
traceable to catarrh. With the slightest
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 bech after
meals, have sour stomach, a sensation of
weight or heaviness, n fullness, Irregular ap-
petite, drowslness, gnawing, empty sensa-
lions, occasional pain-they all know this;
but they do not know that their trouble il
cAtarrh OF the stomach. II they did they
would take Peruna.
Feruna cures catarrh wherever located
As soon>ns Peruna removes catarrh from
the stomach the digestion becomes good,
appetite regular, nerves strong, and trouble
vanishes. Peruna strengthens weak nerves,
not by temporarily stimulating them. but
by removing the cause of weak nervcs-poor
digestion. This Is the only cure that lasts.
Remove the cause: Nature will do the rest.
Peruna removes the cause.
IL you do not derive prompt and satisfac-
tory results from the. use of Peruna. write
ut once to DIR. Hartman. giving full state.

give you his valuable advice gratis.

New York Sun: Did you ever hear
the story of Monte Chamherlain's ex-
perience with the bunko steerer?.
asked the elderly lounger in the lobby
OF an uptown hotel the other day.
1T was back in the early 'S0s-Au
gust, think. Monte and 1 went to
shooting trip. One day toward the
end of our second week we thought
we'd try our hand at few pickerel.
There was nothing in the way of craft
or the lake where we were camping
but a small birchbark canoe. However,
notwithstanding Monte's 230 odd
pounds, we thought we'd try 1t. We
hadn't gone far from the shore when
careless move OF Monte upset the ca
noe. AS we were good swimmers we
soon reached the bank and clambered
up.
I'VE had hardly planted our feet on
dry land when man appeared with a
telegram for Chamberlain, summoning
him to the city with all possible haste.
The nearest station was five miles.
There was a train In two hours and
then none for twenty-four. Monte,
rot liking the idea OF boarding a train
in clothes dripping with water. Dor
rowed a suit from the guide, who. com
pared to Chamberlain. was small
man. Well, wish you could have seen
Chamberlain in that outfit. Trousers
OF elastic fit barely reaching his shoe
tops. and sleeves almost to his elbows.
He was a typical Reub from Reubens-
Vile.
When we reached the Grand Central
station Monte got OFF first, battered
gripsack in each hand. We had hard

when two Of the suave professors
stepped out. They made a Decline

Mrs. August Pfalzgraf, of South
Byron, Wis, mother of the young lady
whose portrait we here publish, wrote
Mrs. Pinkham in January, 1890, saying
her daughter had suffered for two
years with irregular menstruation
had headache all the time. and pain in
her side, feet swell, and was generally
miserable. Mrs. Pinlham promptly
replied with advice, and under date of
March, 1899, the mother writes again
that Lydia +. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound cured her daughter of all
pains and irregularity.
Nothing in the world equals Mrs.
Pinkham's great medicine for regu-
lating woman's peculiar monthly
troubles.

the ordinary form of catarrh. Avoid all dry

THE DUTY OF MOTHERS.

What suffering frequently results
from a mothers ignorance; or more
frequently from mothers neglect to
properly instruct her daughterl
Tradition says woman must suf-
fer" and young women are SO taught.
There is little truth and great deal
of exaggeration in this. If young
woman suffers severely she needs
treatment, and her mother should see
that she gets it.
Many mothers hesitate to take their
daughters to physician for examina-
ton; but no mother need hesitate to
write freely about her daughter or
herself to Mrs. Pinkham and secure
the most efficient advice without
charge. Mrs. Pinkham's address is
