A STRONG, VIGOROUS MAN
|" Liable to Break Down-Pe-ru-na is

IT TONIC is a medicine that gives tone
~ to some part Of the system. There
are different kinds of tonics, but
the tonic most needed in this country,
where catarrh is SO prevalent, is q
tonic that operates on the mucous men,
branes.
Peruna is tonic to the mucous men,
branes Of the whole body. 1t gives tone
to the capillary circulation which con-
stitutes these delicate membranes.
Peruna is a specific in it's operation
upon the mucous membrane. 1t is
tonic that strikes at the root of all ca
tarrhal affections. 1t gives tone to the
minute blood vessels and the terminal
nerve flbres. Catarrh cannot exist long
where Peruna is used intelligently.
Peruna seeks out catarrh in all the hid
den parts of the body.
Paul Landrum writing from Atlanta,
Ca, says:
"In January last began the use Of
your Peruna and Manalin for what was
termed organic heart trouble. At that
time 1 could scarcely walk to my place
of business without stopping to rest and
on arrival felt completely exhausted.
Had severe pains in my heart and general
dizziness. After using the first bottle Of
Peruna began to improve and today
feel that am sound man and 1 work
fourteen hours q day without any bad
| feeling" Paul Landrum.
A. NJ. Ikerd, an employee of the g. B.
& @. r. r., West Burlington, Ia, writes:
az had catarrh of the stomach and
small intestines for a number of years.
l went to q number of doctors and got
no relief. Finally one of my doctors
sent me to Chicago and I met the same
fate. They said they could do nothing
for me, that l had cancer of the stomach
and there was no cure. 1 almost thought
the same, for my breath was something
awful. 1 could hardly stand it, it was
so offensive. 1 could not eat anything
without great misery, and I gradually
grew worse.
"Finally got one of your books, and
concluded would try Peruna, and thank
God, found a relief and a cure for that
dreadful disease. I took five bottles of
Peruna and two Of Manalin, and now
feel like new man. There is nothing
better than Peruna, and I keep bottle
in my house all the time."-A. NJ. Ikerd.
If you do not derive prompt and salts
factory results from the use of Peruna,
write at once to DR.. Hartman, giving
full statement Of your case and he will
be pleased to give you his valuable adj
vice gratis.

The Hartman Sanitarium, Columbus,

FRANCE AND TURKEY
Chamber of Deputies Sustains
Governments Action.
The PORTE APPEALS TO ENGLAND.
Destination of French Fleet Not An
nounccd. but Its Arrival Mt Smyr-
M and seizure of Customs
Is Rumored.

PARIS. Nov. 5.-After a speech de-
livcrcd by the foreign minister, NJ.
Delcassc, the chamber of deputies has
sustained by vote of 300 to ~ the
governments action toward Turkey.
Though the government has not
given out the present destination of the
French fleet, it is known that Admiral
Caillard is headed for some Greek is
land, probably syria, one of the Cycla-
des
syria, which is ! 800 miles from Tou-
lon, lies about POO miles from the en-
trance to the Dardanellcs leading TO
COnstantinoplc 1t is 125 miles from
Mitylene, a rich Turkish island off the
coast of Asia Minor. 1t is 100 miles
from Smyrna, the chief commercial
emporium of west Asia, which port, a
high French government official has
limited, the feet may seize for the pur-
pose of collecting the customs until the
French claims, indemnity and punitive
damages are collected. 1t is 80 miles
from Salonilla, the most important port
In European Turkey.
The sultan evidently assumes that
the French have designs on one or all
of those points, so he has planted
mines in the Dardanclles, ordered
Mitylene, Smyrna and Salonika pre-
pared for defense and commanded that
two army corps he modified.
Admiral Caillard left Toulon with
seven first class fighting ships and will
pick up several more on the way. He
will have at least ten and possibly
thirteen when he arrives at his desti-
nation.
He will have under his command
two huge battleships of 11,2GO tons,
carrying four II inch guns besides
quick firing weapons; three armored
cruisers and several torpedo boat de-
stroyers and torpedo boats.
A report from COnstantinople says
that the porte has demanded of Great
Britain that she fulfill the terms of the
London convention of 1878 and protect
the sultan's Asiatic possessions from
French attack.
The Paris correspondent of The Daily
Mail says lie understands that dis
patches have been received at the
French capital announcing that Admi-
raj Caillard'S division of the French
Mediterranean squadron has arrived at
Smyrna and seized the customs.
