Plttsburg Dec. 24.-Thc scarcity OF

The mills at Carnegie City, are shut

Use Peruna For Colds, Coughs and
Catarrh.

AS the skin covers the outside OF the
body, so the mucous membranes line the
inside. Every organ, every duct, every
passage, every cavity of the body, Ia
lined by mucous membrane. These mu
cous membranes are liable from various
causes to become irritated or Unnamed
When this occurs 1t 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 urt
nary organs. Wherever there Is mu'
cous membrane, there catarrh may bs
also.
To be sure, catarrh of these various
organs has been known by difereni
names; that Is, cafarrh of the stomach
has been called dyspepsia, cafarrh Oh
the kidneys, Bright's Disease; cafarrh
of the bowels, diarriiea or dysenfe'J7
cafarrh of the procreafive organs, fe'

But our claim Is, that these are all one
and the same dise6se-catarrh-and
that our remedy, Peruna, is applicable
to cafarrh of all of these various or

Peruna is not "cure all" 1t cures just

is able to fasten itself within the differ

But we insist that Peruna cures one dis

only internal, scientific remedy for ca
tarrh yet devised. We claim that ca
tarrh is systemic disease; that is to
say, It invades the whole system. We
claim that Peruna is q systemic remedyl
that is to say, it eradicates catarrh, from
