Mrs. Y. Schneider, 2409 Thirty-seventh

after taking several remedies with
out result, l began last year to take
your valuable remedy, Peruna. l was
q complete wreck. Had palpitation of
the heart, cold hands and feet, female
weakness, no appetite, trembling, sink
ing feeling nearly all the time. You said
was suffering from systemic catarrh,
and believe that received your help
in the nick of time. ] followed your
directions carefully and can say to-day
that am well again. l cannot thank
you enough for my cure"
Peruna cures catarrh wherever locat-
ed. Peruna is not guess NOR an experi-
ment-it is an absolute scientific GER
tainty. Peruna has no substitutes-no
rivals. Insist upon having Peruna.

Catarrh is a systemic disease durable
only by systemic treatment. A rem

at the depressed nerve centers. This is
what Peruna does.

NUMBER TWENTY SHOES.

Sixteen Years Old.

When Louis Merkanen buys a new
pair or shoes the shoemaker must
"Duild," not make" them, says the
Houghton, Michigan. correspondent of
the Chicago Chronicle. There is a dis
tinction. Louis does not wear an ordi-
nary shoe. He wears quite an extraor-
dlnary one. for in size 1t Is No. 20.
Louis is Just sixteen years old. Not
withstanding his youthfulness, he is
seven feet tall and weighs 2S9 pounds
He is the wonder of his community,
for his parents are small. His mother
is not over five feet tail, while his
father Is medium sized
Louis went to local shoe dealer
yesterday and ordered new pair of
shoes and now the wielder of the awl

size of Louis feet. The lad grows
three inches year on an average and
il he does not stop growing-which is
unlikely-he will be eight feet and two
inches in height when he is twenty
years old. Two years ago he wore 4
No. 10 shoe. Last year when he was
confirmed at the Finnish church the
shoemaker built" pair, size No. IS.

continue to grow as they have he will
require size No. % when he Is twenty
years old. Louis had some difficulty
in entering the door of the shoe store,
for there was just fraction of an
inch to spare, but he made 1t all right.
However, Louis is good natured and
happy as most large people are, and
will go to work in the Boston mine in
few days.

GOT THE QUILT AT LAST.
Humorous Detroit Bell Boy Has Fun
With Hotel Guest.

With Hotel Guest.
The clink of the ice in the pitcher
as the boy came down the hall had no
charms for this guest, who stopped
at one of Detroit's hotels last week.
1t was a cold night and. finding that
there was not sufficient bed clothing,
he pushed the bell. Shortly afterward
a colored boy appeared with pitcher
of ice water.
Il want quilt for my bed" said
the guest, and he shivered and
whacked himself with his arms to get
up a circulation.
"All right. sah," said the bell boy.
but he insisted on leaving the pitcher
of ice water.
The quilt failed to materalize. and
again he pushed the button. and
again the humorous bell boy came
with another pitcher of ice water and
placed it on the dresser.
The guest swore softly to himself,
and explained that he did not want
ice water. but a quilt.
I'm cold, not thirsty" he said.
Still no quilt, and he jabbed the
button viciously, says the Detroit
Free Press. Another pitcher of ice
water appeared. and the temperature
in the room rose 10 degrees.
Get out of here, you imp of Satan
and get me a quilt. No sir. you can't
leave that Ice water in my room"
He got the quilt.
