November Colds Should Not Be Allowed to Develop Into Chronic Catarrh.
Pe-ru-na Cures a Cold Promptly
 and Permanently.

"I am glad to recommend Peruna as 1t has done so much for me. l had been a great sufferer from catarrhal colds un- til was urged to try Peruna. and I am happy to say that it has entirely cured me. I shall never be without it and most cheerfully recommend 1t to others who are afflicted as I have been.'- Katherine Dauter, 299 18th St., Milwau- kee, Wis.
 Most people think the success of Peruna depends upon the use of advertisements Undoubtedly the advertisements help some But by the far greatest number of people who hear of Peruna, have their attention called to 1t by a friend.
 Some one gets cured of chronic catarrh by Peruna. After he is certain of his cure, he is sure to recommend 1t to his friends. Friend recommends 1t to friend and the news spreads from tongue to tongue.
 All the advertisements In the world could not make Peruna as popular as 1t Is. Peruna cures, That is the req son people like it. Peruna cures a very stubborn disease. That is why everyone recommends it. Peruna cures chronic catarrh after all other remedies fail, which explains why

TO SUBMIT WAGE SCHEDULE.
Conductors, Trainmen and Switchmel
 Seek Larger Salaries.

Oakland, Cal, November 1.-Within the next few days the orders of Railway Con ductors, Trainmen and Switchmen will submit a schedule of wages to the Southern Pacific company. The requests of the men are very much the same as those submitted by the engneers, fire men, telegraphers and others An in- crease of 15 to 20 per cent is asked, to- gether with a uniform rate of wages on all the divisions of the Atlantic and Pa cific system. According to the bylaws of the organization the company is given thirty days to make answer to the men.
 The danger of a general strike on the Southern Pacific lines is not thought to be great The heads of departments are united in saying that the possibilities of a great railroad strike are so small that 1t cannot be considered even a possipili- ty. The men hold equally pronounced views. The conservative organs have also had the entire confidence of the company and there have been no detkils that have not been amicably settled.l

IT IS DOUBTFUL
If Local Application Alone Ever Cured
 A Case of Catarrh.

Most remedies for the treatment of ca- tarrh are in the form of sprays, inhalers, powders, washes or salves, all purely local applications and many of them often give temporary relief, but the req son none of them ever really cure chronic catarrh Is because catarrh is not a local disease and it cannot be cured simply by treating the local symptoms.
 Moreover the more serious forms of ca- tarrh like catarrh of the stomach and catarrh of the bronchial tubes. cannot be reached at all by local applications and the fact that neglected catarrh of the head very soon involves the bronchial tubes, stomach and liver. demonstrates that the disease is a blood disorder. a constitutional malady and not at all a local disease.
 To really cure catarrh the system must be cleansed from catarrhal poision by an internal remedy which acts effectively upon the blood and liver.
 The success of a new catarrh remedy, Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, Is because 1t drives out of the system, through natural channels, the catarrhal poison and the mucous lining of the nose, throat and trachea are freed from the excessive mucus which collects And causes the hawking, splitting and gagging, because the excessive secretion is not furnished from healthy blood.
 Stuart's Catarrh Tablets contain many of the same valuable antiseptics used in sprays and inhalers, but instead of being applied to the inflamed membranes of the nose and throat. they are taken into the stomach and thus reach the blood, the real seat and cause of the disease.
 Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are large, pleasatn tasting lozenges. composed of Red Gum. Hydrastan, Bloodroot, and similar catarrh specifics, and so safe tc use that little children suffering from colds take them with same beneficial re- suits as adult persons.
 No trace of cocaine or opiates, so com mon in catarrh medicines. can be foun' in Stuarts Catarrh Tablets.
