X telegram from Mounds, La, to the

"There is pecan tree peddler here buy
ing all the wild pecan ir he can find
and shipping them all ov,, he country as
producing the largest pecan, in the world
that will bearin four years time. The sap
is in full flow in every pecan tree and they
will probably die"
Commenting editorially on this news,
the Packer says:
"This is fraud of the worst type and
fruit journals and local newspapers every
where should promptly expose it and warn
their readers against buying from un-
known parties. No reputable nurseryman
would dare send out such trees aud above
all would not represent the stock rs bear
ing in four years. The pecan industry
will pay those who have the capital to
wait for results. but it cannot stand long
under the effects of such frauds as this"

Pe-ru-na is Not a Cure-All.

Peruna Is not a cure-all. Nothing of Inc sort is claimed for 1t; indeed, there $ no such medicine. Peruna cures ca tarrh wherever located in the body by IS specific action on the vasa-motor sys- 'em of nerves These nerves control ev- cry blood-vessel of the body, regulating "Xactly sthe amount of blood which is allowed to flow through them. A conges- lion means too much blood. Anaemia means too little blood. Either of these conditions Peruna will cure simply be- cause 1t regulates the functions of these nerves. Congestion of the blood-vessels leads directly to that most universal dis aase known as chronic catarrh: and 1t
 g through this source that 1t effects It's cures in all catarrhal diseases, whose name is legion. but nature, one. The ac- ton of Peruna is a single one, although it's curative effects are exerted in many conditions of the body which have been called different names. It is claimed for

 Mrs. Eliza Heinzle, 106 East Main Street. Columbus, Ohio. writes:
 About year ago contracted a violent cold, which settled on my lungs, and for four, months I ran down very rapidly,osiscoughing up quantities of bloody mucous, and frequently hemorrhages from the lungs. My husband and my friends had given me up. Some one, how ever. who had tried your Peruna, advised me to use it. As last hope bought bottle, and, finding im- mediate relief from it's use, continued taking it. My cough left me, and I have no more hemorrhages, and am now as we'll as I ever was in my life. I thankfully attribute my present good health, ,sand, in fact, my living at all, toIthe good effects of Peruna."

 He is right, too.
 They are actually on the road towards consumption.

 When it reaches the lungs it will be called consumption.

 Instead of sending for a doctor they should have bought bottle of Peruna. This would have settled the whole matter.
 Peruna cures a cough in the only ra- tional way. A cough is a signal that the bronchial tubes are inf1amed by catarrh. As long as the catarrh remains in the bronchial tubes, so long will the cough remain.
 To take quieting medicines to stop cough is absurd and harmful. The only way to stop a cough permanently and without doing more injury than good, is to cure the catarrh. which is exactly what Peruna does. It cures the catarrh of the bronchial tubes and the cough ceases. At the slightest appearance of a cough, a bottle of Peruna should be taken ac- cording to directions. One bottle in the beginning will do more than half dozen bottles after the catarrh has fastened it. self on the lungs. U. S. Senator Thurston, from Nebraska. writes from Omaha. Neb.:
