All who are posted in their construc-

difference in the various fountain pens
of good make, except in name and
price Tue principle remains the same
in all Of them.
The Parker LUCKY Curve" however
is synonymous the country over for
the best in fountain pen making. 1t
has an improved feature-a curved
feed which not only feeds the ink per
fectly to the point of the pen and in
the exact quantity desired, but it
drains the ink from the feed channel
back into the reservoir when the pen
IS carried to the pocket, thus prevent
ing the ink from soiling the fingers.

MANY RELIABLE WITNESSES
Prove That Old Cases of Chronic Ca
tarrh can be Cured.
A Medicine That Will
Cure Cases of Catarrh
Of Long Standing De-
serves a Very High
Place in the Annals of
Medical Discovery.
Such a Medicine is
Peruna.

THOUSANDS Of testimonials are
pouring in every day of old cases
of chronic catarrh that have re-
sisted all treatment for years, being
promptly and permanently cured by
Peruna.
These reports do not all come from
obscure places, signed by obscure peo-
pie. A large proportion Of these letters
are written by men and women promi-
nent in business and professional cir
cles and many of them well known from
ocean to ocean.
Colonel John Franklin Waters occu-
pies prominent position among the
leading trial lawyers of Chicago. He
has probably obtained more verdicts
against corporations in suits for personal
injuries than any man Of his age in the
United States, and during his practice
of over fifteen years he has not lost a
single case in the Supreme Courts of
Illinois and Missouri. He is a hard
worker and has the energy of four men.
For number of years he had been
afflicted with chronic catarrh and hav-
ing recently been thoroughly cured Of
his old affection, an interview was OBJ
tanned with him by one of our reporters
in which he gave the following state
ment to the public:
CHICAGO, ILL, Aug. 6, 1900.
The Peruna Medicine Co., Columbus, O.:
0enfIemen---"K gives me great
pleasure to testify to the merits of
such q worthy remedy for cafarrh as
your Peruna. had suffered for q
number of years from this very dis
agreeable disease and had tried many
s0-caLIed remedies, but until used
Peruna none had the desired effect. I
feel that am perfectly cured and can
cheerfuliy recommend Peruna to any
one suffering from cafarrh."
