A large per cent Of those who ars
afflicted with this epidemic, instead Of
getting well as they ought to, VIII have
chronic catarrh as the result. This Ia

the grip begins.
Every one who has observed the effect
of Peruna during the last three eplden2-
les of la grippe positively knows THAI
this remedy will cure it permanently.
The fact is, however, that n great null
titude of people will not take Perunas
and foundation for chronic catarr1
will be laid.
Even in cases where chronic catarrh
has affected the lungs, and the early
stages of catarrhal consumption have
been developed, Peruna can be relied
upon as n prompt and lasting cure. La
grippe and catarrh are at present ths
two great enemies Of life in the land
Peruna is cure for either.

anese,-HoId Out CoaIing Stations
San Francisco, June 23.-General
A. :. Burt, retired, who has recently
arrived from the Philippines, has a
plan for the solution of the Philippine
.roblem. He believes he has arrived
at a conclusion that will ultimately
be accepted by the administration and
the public at large.
Turn them over to the Japanese"
said the general, '1et them have them
on the installment plan for the con-
sideration of say $150,O00. Our gov
eminent does not need the money in
a lump sum-, and by making a propo-
sition of that kind we can dictate as
to coaling stations and make such
reserves as are thought to be best for
trade interests.
"An arrangement of that kind can
be effected that will give the United
States as broad a road to the markets
of the orient, as if we retained the
islands. besides we will be making
strong allies that will represent our
interests on that side OF the globe
without the necessity of the presence
of large army at an enormous
cost" %

brought 81 discharged soldiers, 157
sick men, three dead and IL insane.
