Use Peruna For Colds, Coughs and
Catarrh.

As the skin covers tho outside Of the
body, so the mucous membranes line the
inside. Every organ, every duct, every
passage, every cavity Of the body, is
lined by mucous membrane. These mu-
cous membranes are liable from various
causes to become irritatcd or infamcd.
When this occurs il is called catarrh,
and catarrh may be located in the head,
nose, middle ear, throat, bronchial tubes,
or air cells Of the lungs, liver, bowels
kidneys. bladder, provocative and uri'
nary organs. Wherever there is mu'
cous membrane, there catarrh may be
also.
To be sure, catarrh of these various
organs has been known by different
names; that Is, cafarrf of the stomach
has been called dyspepsia, cafarrh OF
the kidneys, Brighfs Disease; cafarrh
of fhe bowels, diarrtipa or dyseHfeTJ;
cafarrh of the provocative organs, fee
male trouble, and so on, and SO on.
But our claim Is, that these are all one
and the same disesse-catarrh-and
that our remedy, Peruna, Is applicable
to Cafarrh of all of these various or
gans.
Peruna is not "cure all" 1T cures just
one disease-catarrh. But since catarrh
is able to fasten itself within the differ
ent organs of the body, so it is that Pc
runa cures affections Of these organs
But we insist that Peruna cures one dis
ease only. We claim that Peruna is the
only internal, scientific remedy for ca
tarrh yet devised. We claim that ca
tarrh is a systemic disease; that is to
say, it invades the whole system. We
claim that Peruna is a systemic remedy
that is to say, it eradicates catarrh from
the system. Catarrh is not local dis
ease; Peruna is not a local remedy
Since catarrh invades the system, only
a systemic remedy can reach it. Thisis
in brief, our claim in assigning to the
catarrh-our remedy, Peruna.

on catarrh in it's different forms anC

French head waner: One OF the regu.

restaurant used 20 be a short. thin.
shy and stability dressed man whose
name no one knew, but who gave out
that he was a butter dealer. for which
reason he was called the butter man ut

pared for him. was always put before

cut the tiniest slice. Then followed
four quails or a large chicken. OF which
be ate one mOuthful. together with
two lettuce leaves and one rad.sh. Ills
dessert was four grapes-never sim
gle one more-and n cup OF coffee. A
bottle OF the best claret and another
OF the best champagne were served
with the rcpast, but he only wcttcd
his lips with drop from them aud let

a day. and the price for each meal was
100 francs.
But this was not alt Every time
the butter man got up from his ex-
traordinary meal he gave 40 francs 70
the head walter. who put his food on
his plate, since the guest did not like
20 handle spoons or dishes; 20 francs
TO the waiter, 10 francs 10 the woman
cashier and . francs 20 the porter.
Thus each meal came TO 200 francs.
The head waiter OF the restaurant Of
ten did slight errands for him. buying
his cigars. etc. and took them 20 the
Grand hotel where the butter man
lived. The little old man would then
open the drawer OF a wardrobe filed
with heaps Of bank notes OF from 100
francs TO 600 francs In value and
with an enormous mass OF goldpieces

reached, however. when the conductor
came for his fare. After infinite research
the intoxicated man brought forth q dime
from tho innermost parts OF his clothing.

there appeared to him to be two dimes
and he labored for some time trying to
separate the dime into two 10-cent pieces.
AT last he handed 1t to the fare collector
and demanded IL cents in change. and

THE CHAMPION WING SHOT.

Capt. BoRardus Has . Dangerous Ex.
p%ericuce, but Gomez Out Unhurt.
Ferris Wheel Park. Chicago, Nov. A.
Capt. A. II. Bogardus, the champion
wing shot OF the world. has spent the
summer here. His shooting school has
been n OF the features Of the Park
during the season. He has given many
exhibitions and his skill with the rifle
Is superb.
The Captain tells Of a very close cali
he once had when living at Elkhart,
Ill. He had been a sufferer from Kid
ney disease for several years, and 1t
rapidly developed into Bright's Disease.
All his friends told him that this was
incurable, and that he would never get
better.
To say that he was alarmed is to put
IT very mildly. This plucky man had
faced many dangers, and 1t made him
sick at heart to think that at last he
was to be conquered by such a cruel
9e. !
At last he heard Of q medicine that
mad cured many such cases-Dodd's
Kidney Pills. He used them and was
completely restored to good health.
He says: II attribute my present
god health to Dodd's Kidney Pills and
to nothing else"
