but begin to take Peruna right
away, and keep it up until you
are cured, as you surely will be If
you persevere.
My wife, as many in the southwest can
say, was troubled with bad cough and
bronchial trouble, and doctors all over the

do nothing more for her. She began taking

she says, to Peruna. Yours very truly,

CIGARS FORCED UPON HIM.
One Reason Why General Grant BE-
came Such a Great Smoker.


A reason can generally oe found for
everything. Everyone is aware of the
fact that General Grant was addicted
In an abnormal degree to the smoking
habit General James Grant Wilson,
in = recent address before the his
torical society Of Philadelphia. ac-
counts for his excesses in this re-
gard. Among the yarns spun by the
speaker was the following: 1T seems
that after one of Grants great victo-
ries he was seen riding down the line
with 4 half-smoked, unlit cigar in his
mouth. In reporting the affair the
war correspondents one and all men
toned the incident Of the half-burnt
cigar.
1T was not long after that every
express from the North brought the
general packages of cigars, until there
were 10000 cigars received at camp.
Up to that time Grant had been in
the habit of smoking but two or three
cigars q day But with this unlimited
supply and feeling that as they were
gifts he could not give them away.
he started to smoke them Wholesale.
and thus acquired a tremendous appe-
tite for tobacco"
