"After taking several remedies
without result, I began in january,
1901, to AXE your remedy,
PerunR. 1 was n complete wreck.
Had pnIpitntion of the heart, cold
hands and feet, female weakness, no
appetite, trembling, sinking feeling
nearly all the time. You said I was
suffering from systemic catRrrh, and
1 believe that 1 received your help
In the nick of time. 1 followed your
directions carefully and can say to-
day that 1 am well again. 1 cannot
thank you enough for my cure. !
Will always be your debtor. 1 have
already recommended Peruna TO my
friends and neiRhbors and they all

Schneider.
Over half the women have catarrh in
some form or another. And yet. probably,
not q tenth of the women know that their

disease is catarrh. To distinguish catarrh
Of various organs Il has been named very
differently.
One woman has dyspepsia, another bron-
chitls, another Bright's disease, another
liver complaint, another consumption,
another female complaint. These women
would be very much surprised to hear that
they are all suffering with chronic catarrh.
But It is so, nevertheless.
Each one Of these troubles and a great
many more are simply catarrh--that is.
chronic Inflammation Of the mucous lining
Of whichever organ is affected. Any inter-
nal remedy that will cure catarrh In one
location will cure 1t In any other. This
is why Peruna has become so Justly famous
In the cure Of female diseases. II cures
catarrh wherever located. Its cures re-
main. Peruna does not pailiate-it cures.
Hon. Joseph b. Crowley. Congressman
from Illinois, writes from Robinson, ILL.,,
the following praise for the great catarrhal
tonic. Peruna. Congressman Crowley says:
"Mrs. Crowley has taken n number
of bottles of PerunR on account of
troubles. IL has proven n
strong tonic and lasting cure. 1 can
cheerfully recommend i'll. u.

this wire having the repute of being

MONKEYS ARE CLEVER.
Stories of Simians That Learn ed from
Men How to Perform Some Very
Smart Tricks,

Monkey cleverness has long been ia
nous. They are past masters in
the delicate use of their fingers.
A It'll was wont to steal speci-
men insects from the cabinet
in which they were kept. A mona
could pick lock, undo knot, or take
off ring. Livingstone's Soko was just
as smart with fingers and thumb. A
macao opened boxes, and marmoset
turned over the leaves of book which
it pretended to read. A squirrel mon
key which disliked tobacco used to
whip it's masters cigars out of his
mouth. There once was gorilla in
the zoo at Dresden which would take
off its keepers boots and put them on
again. A capauchin removed the
hinges of the door of it's cage by ex-
tracing the nails and screws out of
the wood. In Benares, where the mon
keys are Spoiled" they play all sorts
of tricks on passers-by, besides pelting
them with missiles. Even the orang-
utan has condescended to unite the
knots in his chain. The monkeys that
act as detectives in Monkeydom must
have very busy time of it.
