THE EsQUIMO.

The Esquirno eats blubber. The
lumbermen eat pork. These people
are constantly exposed to cold and
physical strain. Experience has
taught them that fatty foods give
warmth and nourishment.
For those who have cold and thin
bodies, or are threatened with con-
sumption or any wasting disease,
there is no fat in so digestible and
palatable form as SCOTS Emulsion.
Physicians prescribe it.

OLD RAGAMUFF.


oh, he was the funniest bogy man that ever
fooled young crow!
His legs were wibbly-wabbly things,
His arms went f1ippety-fop, like wings,
And he hunched up one Shoulder-so!
He wore such rusty, raggedy coat, 1t was
just one jagged rip;
His tall old hat had hole and dent,
And he looked so queer and twisty and
bent,
With a dislocated hip!
He was such trump of bogy man, the
old crows wouldn't scare;
They scrabbled for corn whenever they
chose;
They said: ''Pshaw, pshawr' right under
his nose;
"Ho, Ragamuff, shoot if you darer'
And nobody loved the 5ogy mamie wasn't
a bit~of good;
The neighbors laughed and chaffed at
him so
The farmer said: 'Then down he shall
go!
He's better for kindling-wood
But when they went out to the bogy man,
what under the sun did they see?
A dear little birding had built her nest
Right there in Ragamuffs poor old
breast,
AS coy as coy could be-
So they let old Bogy stand his ground, to
guard that little nest;
And the sun shone bright on the waving
corn,
And Ragamuff isn't so very forlorn
With a song bird in his breast

cous membrane, restoring it to its nor
NAL state, would consequently cure all
these diseases. Catarrh is catarrh
wherever located, whether it be in the
head, throat, lungs, stomach, kidneys,
or pelvic organs. A remedy that will
cure it in one location will cure it in
all locations.
Peruna is such remedy. The Sis
ters of Charity know this. When ca
tarrhal diseases make their appear
ance they are not disconnected, but
know exactly what remedy to use.
These wise and prudent Sisters have
found PerIna never-failing safe
guard. They realize that when dis
ease is of catarrhal nature, Peruna is
the remedy. Dyspepsia and female
weakness are considered by many to
be entirely different diseases-that
dyspepsia is catarrh of the stomach
and female weakness is due to catarrh
of the pelvic organs the Sisters are
fully aware, consequently Perura Is
their remedy in both these very COM
| mon and annoying diseases.
If you do not receive prompt and
satisfactory results from the use Of
Peruna, write at once to DR.. Hartman,
giving a full statement of your case,
and he will be pleased to give you his
| valuable advice gratis.

The Hartman Sanitarium, Columbus.

DR.. Hartman receives many letters
from Catholic Sisters all over the Unit
ed States. A recommend recently re-
ceived from a Catholic institution in
the Southwest reads as follows:
A Prominent Mother Superior Says:
81 can testify from experience to
the efficiency of Peruna as one of the
very best medicines, and it gives me
pleasure to add my praise to that of
thousands who have used it. For years
I suffered with catarrh of the stomach,
all remedies proving valueless for re-
lief. Last spring l went to Colorado,
hoping to be benefited by change of
climate and while there friend ad-
vised me to try Peruna.. After using
two bottles I found myself very much
improved. The remains of my old dis
ease being now so slight, 1 consider
myself cured, yet for a while I istend
to continue the use of Peruna. I am
now treating another patient with
your medicine. She has been sick with
malaria and troubled with leucor-
rhea. I have not doubt that a cure
will be speedily effected"

in close to me so that the red curls

indecent frankness with which it was
displayed was only part of the livery

such a bitter vengeance, and to in

ever used.
