A POSTMASTER'S DISCOVERY.

Lancaster, N. Y, April 21st.-Mr.
John Remers, postmaster of this vii
lage, was taken with Diabetes four
y years ago. For two years he doc
tored with local physicians as well as
several specialists from Buffalo, but
got no better. Indeed hewas gradually
growing worse.
He stopped taking the doctors med
icine and commenced treatment of
Dodd's Kidney Pills. He used in all
about ten boxes and is as strong and
well to-day as ever he was.
< He attributes his recovery to moth
ing but Dodd's Kidney Pills and says:
IF I could only talk five minutes to
every one who has Diabetes am sure
I could convince them that they
needn't suffer a moment longer when
-,Dodd's Kidney Pills are on sale in

Felt Her Case Was Hope.
less-Cured by
Peruna.

MFRS. ANNA B. FLEHARTY, recent
lvl Superintendent of the w. c. T. u.
headquarters, at Galesburg, ILL.,,
was for ten years one of the leading
women there. Her husband, when liv-
ing, was first President of the Nebraska
Wesleyan University, at Lincoln, Neb.
In a letter written from 401 Sixty
seventh street, w., Chicago, ILL.,, Mrs.
Fleharty says the following in regard
to Peruna:
Having lived a very active life as
wife and working partner of busy
minister, my health failed me few
wears ago. I lost my husband about
the same time, and gradually seemed
to lose health and spirit. My daughter
is confirmed invalid, and we both felt
great need of an invigorator.
Zone of my neighb0rs advised me
to try Peruna. A hottie was in1n1edi-
afeIy secured and q great change took
place In my daughters as well as In
my own health. Our appefifes i'm.
proved very greatly, the digestion
seemed much helped, and resffuI sleep
soon improved US, SO that we seemed
like new women.
81 would not be without Peruna for
ten times its COST. "-Mrs. Anna B.
EIeharty.
What used to be called female dis
eases by the medical profession is now
called pelvic catarrh. 1t has been
found by experience that catarrhal
diseases of the pelvic organs are the
cause of most cases of female disease.
DR.. Hartman was among the first of
Americas great physicians to make
this discovery. For forty years he has
been treating diseases peculiar to
women, and long ago he reached the
conclusion that woman entirely free
from catarrhal affection of these Or
gans would not be subject to female
disease. He therefore began using Pc
runa for these cases and found it SO
admirably adapted to their permanent
cure that Peruna has now become the
most famous remedy for female dis
eases ever known. Everywhere the
women are using it and praising it.
Peruna is not palliative simply; it
cures by removing the cause of female
disease.
DR.. Hartman has probably cured
more women of female ailments than
any other living physician. He makes
these cures simply by using and rec
ommending Peruna.

CONDEMNED IN MISSOURI AND
~ CONFISCATED IN
NEW YORK.

Judge Clarke of St. Louis has con.
victed and fined heavily a number OF
grocers for selling baking powders
containing alum. =:
The week before the Health Depart.
ment of New York seized quantity
Of stuff being sold for baking powder
which they found was made from alum
mixed with ground rock, and dunn ped
1t into the river. Il
The Health Authorities are thus tax.
ing effective means to prevent the in.
PRODUCTION into our markets of in.
furious substitutes in place of whole.
some baking powders.
As alum costs only two cents a
pound, there is great temptation for
! those manufacturers who make sub.
>stitutes and imitation goods to use it.
. Alum baking powders can be detected
by the health authorities by chemical
analysis, but the ordinary housekeep-
er, whose assistance in protecting the
health of the people is important, can
not make chemical examination. She
may easily know the alum powders,
however, from the fact that they are
sold at from ten to twenty cents for a
pound can, or that some prize-like a
spoon, or glass, or piece Of crockery,
or wooden ware-is given with the
powder as an inducement. =
AS the people continue to realize the
Importance of this subject and con-
sumers insist on having baking powder
of established name and character,
and as the health auth critics continue
their vigorous crusades, the alum
danger will, it is hoped, finally be
driven from our homes.
