In a recent letter from $500 Michigan
avenue. Chicago, M. Mr.. Moody says the,
following:
For over twenty five years Il
suffered from eatarrh, and for
over ten years 1 suffered froSn
eatarrh of the stomach terribly.
II have taken all kinds of medi-
cines and have been treated by
ali kinds of doctors. as thousands
OF nay acquaintance are VI
in different parts of the United
States, where I have travelled. but
my relief was only temporary
until a h1tle over a year ago I
started to take Peruna, and at the
present time l am better than 1
nave been for twenty years.
The soreness has left my stom-
ach entirely and I am free from
Indigestion and dyspepsia and will
say to ali who are troubles with
catarrh or stomach trouble of any
kind, don't put it off and suffer,
but begin to take Peruna right
away, and keep it up until you are
cured, as you surely will be If you
persevere.
MY wife, as many in the southwest can
say, was troubled with a bad cough and
bronchial trouble, and doctors all over the
country gave her up to die, as they could
do nothing more for her. She began TAX
ing Peruna with the result that she is bet
ter now than she has been in years, and
her cough has almost left her entirely.
The soreness mas left her lungs and she
is as well as she ever was in her life,
with thanks, as she says, to Peruna.
Yours very truly. 7. P. MOODY"
Catarrh in its various forms Is rapidly

remedy has been discovered by DR.. Hart

and are making public utterances on the
subject. To save the country We must

WATERBURY IN TROUBLE
Earl Swears Summons Ont AEaiIAs
American Polo Player.

Earl Swear. Summons Ont Against
American Polo Player.
London, June 3.-ln the West Lon
don police court summons has been
sworn out by the Earl of Shrewsbury
charging Lawrence Waterbury, the
American polo player with cruelty to
animals in using sharp spurs in the
game won by the American team at
Nottingham on Saturday for the Amer
lean CUP. The summons is returnable
on Friday.
The birmingham committee has fixed
the date for the next match for Sat'lr-
aay. June Z. The Americans wanted
to play on Thursday, June 5. They
nave been chatting at the uncertainty
and delay, all to their opponents ad-
vantage. The reason the date was not
fixed earlier was due to King Edward
who was unable to decide whether
Wednesday or Saturday would suit him
hast But. as one of the Americans
said. at is more important to us to
win than to play before the king. Our
Monies and men are now In the best
condition. and the earliest date posi-
bile was what we wanted.
The English team will be reconstruct
ed before it meets the Americans AGAIN
Patteson W. Nickalls will be succeed
cd by G. A. Miller, who was hrs'
choice for the team, but who was pre-
vented by an accident from playing Il"
the first match for the cup. There was
considerable doubt as to whether the
Euglishmen had the right to change
now when each side had named their
team and their spare men. But ap-
narent;y they technically have 1fe
r;oht tn do so, as no stipulation to the
contrary was made beforehand. nu.
II is easily seen what az advantage "
gives the Epgl)shmen.
