The great popularity of Peruna as a ca
talrh remedy has tempted many people to
initiate Peruna. A great many so-called
catarrh remedies and catarrhal tonics are
to be found in many drug stores. These
remedies can be procured by the druggist
much cheaper than Peruna. Peruna can
only be obtained at uniform price, and
70 druggist can get it cent cheaper.
Thus It is that druggists are tempted to
substitute the cheap limitations of Perune
for Peruna. 1t is done every day without
n doubt.

"Yes," replied Charlie, "but I'm not

When the meat was served little lat

Charlie, can you cut your own meat

as this at home"

Tickling the Trusts.

That trio of governmental TRACE
dians, Roosevelt, Knox and Hanna
are at present doing a most interest
ing stunt. They are all demonstrate
ing that they are opposed to trusts
They have said so time and again,
President Roosevelt particularly, and
Hanna and Knox about as often. The
opposition to the trusts as evidenced
by these giants has made the air
ring with applause and filed columns
of the newspapers of the country.
The American people are the audi
ence, and if the stunt is not put on
with a little better finish they will
get tired of it and put the whole
thing down as a great fake. There is
too much talk and too little done of
substantial, tangible nature. The
people find it difficult to understand
how talk is going to suppress the
trusts when tails is the most nourish-
ing morsel thrown to the trusts in
recent years. They thrive on it,
Never We're they so colossal and new
er so influential. Trusts enjoy talk,
and so long as Hanna, Knox and
Roosevelt cOnfine their antitrust eff
forts to verbal knocks, the trusts
alone will enjoy the situation.
