WOMEN OF ALL CLASSES
Find Pe-ru-na Indispensable to Guard Against c
Coughs and Chronic Catarrh

| Mrs. G. w. Miller. 80 N. First street.
| Minneapolis, Mimi. writes:
| '.Peruna is a blessing to women.
There is no greater strain on the nerves
| cares of a household When things go
wrong, dinner is burned and children
cry, it is not so easy to look pleasant,
| but when sickness in the family adds
to the burden it becomes very heavy.
1 have found Peruna my very best
| friend under these difficulties. When
my children were sick it cured them
and when L became over-taxed ana
weary Peruna restored me, and If any
one in my household caught cold few
doses of Peruna administered at once
prevented unpleasant results. If every
| wife and mother would have bottle OF
| Peruna in her medicine chest, life's
| burdens would be much easier to
| carry.'-Mrs. G. W. Miller.
The club woman and the housewife
join in praising Peruua. The reason
for this is because both these classes
are alike subject to catarrh and Ca
tarrhaI diseases.
Catarrh is everywhere. No class of
people are exempt from its inSidiouS
rayages. 1t enters the palace and hoyeI
with equal facility. 1t attacks men and
women with like ferocity and fre-
quency. Strong men and fair women
are among its victims.
Thus it is we find Peruna, the cata.rrh
remedy, everywhere. The upper classes
use it; the lower classes cannot do
without it, and the middle classes
praise it.
At this time of the year, when winter
begins to approach with its chill blasts
and biting frosts, everyone should be
as alert as possible to escape what
seems to be almost inevitable in this
climate, catarrh-
The number of people who have ca
tarrh of some form or other every win
ter, is millions.
Now is the time to get Peruna.
c ba 70 eraf
should be taken soon as the slightest
symptom of catching cold manifests
itself
Many people do not seem to under
stand that a cold is acute catarrh; that
catching cold is simply catching ca
tarrh. An old cold is chronic catarrh-
Catarrh is liable to settle anywhere IN
the system. While it is true that Pc
runa cures catarrh wherever located,
yet it is advisable for everyone to use
Peruna as a preventive, and not wait
until catarrh has fastened itself in
some part of the system.
Miss Sara McGahan, 1877 Third street,
Albany, N. Y, writes:
"A few months ago l suffered with a
severe attack of influenza which moth
ing seemed to relieve My hearing be-
came bad, my eyes became irritated and
feverish. Nothing seemed right, and
nothing ate tasted good
L do not know what it is made of,
but 1 know it is a wonderful medicine
to drive away sickness and restore you
to health. Within two weeks 1 was
perfectly well. and now when any of
my friends are sick 1 advise them to
take Peruna-"-Sara McGahan
If you do not derive prompt and sat
fsfactory results from the use of Pc
runa, write at once to DR.. Hartman,
giving a full statement of your case
and he will be pleased to give you his
valuable advice gratis.

Reloit is the only second class postofice

Beloit is the only second class postoffice
in the Sixth district.
The new Beloit postoffice, thanks to
the enterprise of A. T. Rodgers, who
made the lease to the government for
five years, is a model of neatness and
convenience to not only clerks but pat
rons as we'll. 1t was arranged to suit
the people and to facilitate the handling
of mails Postmaster Perdue showed
good taste in the arranging of boxes
and the several departments. 1t has
been repa pered, new floor put down and
steara heat and electric lights put in.
The Beloit office is a good one to model
