HOW John D. ROCKEFELLER HELPED
THE CHURCH WHEN A YOUNG MAN.

Cleveland, Oct. 31--At the celebra-
tion of the fiftieth anniversary Of the
Euclid Avenue Baptist church, Mr..
John ID. Rockefeller, who has been a
member of the church for nearly the
full half century, made an after-din-
ner speech upon the subject, Our
Pastors For the First Twenty-Five
Years-1S51 to 1876"
At the close he told of his early con-
nection with the church of which he
has been member for 90 years. He
was poor then-50 years ago--but he
gave to the church. A little book OF
his accounts which he had kept when
poor young man, was produced,
and he said:

me, little account on page 3 of my

if Peruna helps me in the future as it
has in the past, I don't know why I
can't. The druggists say Peruna is one
of the best selling medicines they have

Peruna can be relied upon to cure
slight colds and coughs and other ca
tarrhal ailments with promptness that
is unequaled by any other remedy.
If cold has settled in any portion of
the body and produced catarrh, it is gen.
orally thought by people that they must
suffer on year after year without any
hope Of cure. This is not true, however,
Peruna cures such cases. Thousands Of
testimonials that can never be used
