HIT HIM AGAIN.

A small church was sadly in need
of repairs, and a meeting was held in
it with view to raising funds for
the purpose. The minister having
said $500 would be needed, a very
wealthy and stingy member rose and
said he would give one dollar. Just as
he sat down, a lump of plaster fell
from the ceiling and hit him on the
head, where upon he rose up hastily
and called out that he had made a
mistake he would give $50. This
was too much for an enthusiastic
member present, who forgetful of
every thing, called out fervently,
80 Lord, hit him again! Hit him
again !''-Baptist Union.

Summer colds require prompt treatment.
They are always grave, and sometimes
dangerous. The promptness and surety
with which Peruna acts In these cases has
saved many lives.
A large dose of Peruna should be
taken at the first appearance of cold
in summer, followed by small and
oft-repeated doses. There is no other
remedy that medical science can fur
nish, so reliable and quick in its ac-
ton as Peruna.
