life and support, says IN part:
THE ISSUE DEPLORED.
If Dr. Barringer speaks for the Univer-
sity, then, of course. the colleges are put
on notice that the reason for their very
existence is challenged. We deeply de-
plore the issue which the University
chairman raises, but we are by no means
unwilling to meet it. The foundations of
the Virginia colleges have been laid
amidst the toll, tears. and sacrifices of
men who loved the State, who believed in
education under Christian auspices, and
who have made this generous provision
for the youth of their own and succeed

reputation. He is Physical Director of the
Omaha Metropolitan Police Force, and
is considered the strongest man in

finest physique and best trained muscles
cannot protect man from disease. Mr..
Baldwin suffered with catarrh. Instead
of waiting for the ravages of catarrh to
extend through his system, destroying
that magnificent strength, at its first
approach he took Peruna. He did not
first try snuffs, enhalers, and other kinds
OF local treatment. but used Peruna, the
only internal systematic catarrh remedy.
In short time he was able to write the
following letter to the Peruna Medicine
