Hon. Il. J. Irwin. Mayor of Washing
ton. Ca, in recent letter to the Per-
una Medicine Co, of Columbus, O.,
says:
II have frequently used Peruna in
my family and have found it an ex-
cellent remedy for colds and as a
tonic. I often recommend it to my
friends. ."-B. j. Irwin.
The politician of all men must
needs be in good health and splendid
spirits. There is nothing SO cNhaus-
tive to body and mind as to conduct a
political campaign with the spirit and
vim, courage and intellect that charaC-
terize political campaign i'm the United
States.
Sometimes these campaigns require
the speakers and managers to sleep
in different bed every night, eat at
different hotels every day, travel by
day and speak at night for many
months at time.
No one can endure this strain with
ont some remedy to protect them from
the viCisSitudeS of the climate. Some
thing to insure good digestion and
sound sleep. something to give nerve
and brain the invigOratiOn necessary to
meet such an extraordinary strain.
Peruna is the remedy to meet each
one or these conditions. Perhaps il
would he going too far to say that it is
the only remedy that will do this. but
at least it is the best known remedy
and the best tried remedy and the
remedy recommended by the most peo-
pie as exactly adapted to the exposure
and exhaustion incident to campaign
work.
Not only does the politician find it
exactly the remedy that suits his needs.
but the farmer. the housewife, the
clergyman, the clerk the society wom-
an and the day laborer all alike find
Peruna to be not only curative but
preventative.
In this climate where everybody is
liable to catarrh and everybody has it
in some form or other, Peruna has be-
come a fixture and ll, the telephone
and the electric light could hardly be
spared from civilization.

ION the Wabash" Monday Evening

The Boston Herald describes "On the
Wabash" the opening bill of the King
Dramatic company, Monday evening
by the following well-chosen words:
1T is play that holds the audience
alternately between tears and laugh
ter, with its intensn heart story, thrift
ing incidents, and bright comedy
scenes. that run through like a streak
of sunshine"
ION the WabaSh" will be found one
of the many strong bills which will be
presented at the Grand opera house
next week, at popular prices. II Is
generally considered one of the best
constructed plays of its Kind, and the
story is located i'm the interior of Indi-
ana, which makes ii all the more in
teresting. This gives both the artist
and the author every opportunity to
gain effect and construct a picturesque
and telling drama. Every detail has
been taken advantage of, and it is the
claim of the King Dramatic company
that their presentation is equal i'm
every way to the original production.
The drama calls for nine differnt stage
settings, each of which are shown COM
plete,
