New Shrub That
Cures Disease.
A Strange Botanical Product With
Peculiar Effects Upon Certain
Diseases of the Kidneys, Rheu.
matism, Etc.

Our readers will be glad to know that n
new botanical discovery, Alkavis. has
proved certain cure for all diseases caused
by Uric Acid in the blood or by disordered
action of the Kidneys or Urinary Organs.
1t is a wonderful discovery, with record
of 1,2Oo hospital cures in thirty days. Hos
pitals and physicians indorse Alkavis and
state that it cures when all other remedies
known to medical science fail.
For instance, the President of the Suffolk
Hospital Boston, writes as follows: Al
kavis was tested in the hospital on chronic
cases of Bladder and Rheumatic Trouble.
1t cured when old and established COM
pounds wholly failed.
DR.. Sterling Hays, prominent physician
of Beckville. Texas. writes Dec. /. 1902:
Il have been prescribing Akayis for Kidney
and Bladder Diseases for nearly four years with
satisfaction 10 myself ard patients. and have no
hesitation in saying that from my eSpsr eace !
believe it will effect a permanent cure in all
cases of Bladder and kindred Diseases that are
at all amenable TO medical treatment.

ASSISTANT CITY ENGINEER
SUFFERED FOR YEARS C4TARH OF THE HEAD
SAVED BY PE-RU-NA.

Charles c. Roe. Assistant City Engi-
necr. Louisville. KY. writes:
"Peruna has q large number of
admirers in this part of Kentucky,
but none more honest than myself
for what it has done for me.
al was troubled for some years
with cafarrt of the head and throat
which was often 8 serious annoy
ancc to me and must have been to
my friends. Nine bottles of Peruna
cured me and built me up. II
seemed to strengthen the nervous
system, regulate digestion and drive
away the headache, besides curing
the catarrh.

crowd the offices OF catarrh specialists
IN vain. Mr.. Chas c. Roe once belonged
TO this unhappy class. A course Of Peruna
entirely cured him.
There are two things that the whole
medical profession agree about concern
ing cafarrh. The first Is that cafarrh is
the most prevalent and omnipresenf
disease TO which the people in the United
Sfafes are subject. All classes of people
have II. Those who stay indoors much
and those who 20 outdoors much.
Working classes have 1t and sedenfary
classes have It,
The doctor finds catarrh to he his con-
stant and ever-present foe 1t complicates
nearly every disease he is called upon to
treat.
The second thing about catarrh on which
all doctors agree is that It Is difficult to
cure it. Local remedies may give relief.
but they fail to cure permanently. Sprays
or snuffs amount TO little or nothing except
TO give temporary relief.
CatErrh IS frequently located In internal
organs which cannot be reached by any
sort of local treatment. All this is known
by every physician.
To devise some systemic internal remedy
which would reach catarrh at its source.

TO eradicate II permanently from the system
this has been the desire of the medical pro-
fession for long time. Forty years ago DR..
Hartman confronted this problem. He be-
iieved then that he had solved it. He still
believes that he has solved 1t. He cures
thousands of~people annually. During all
these years Peruna has been the remedy
upon which he has relied.
1t was at first private prescription,
afterwards manufactured expressly for him
in large quantities. This remedy, Peruna,
is now to be found In every drug store
and nearly every home in the land. 1t Is
the only reliable internal remedy ever de-
yised to cure any case of catarrh, however
long the case may have been standing.

APPLE TREE BLIGHT.

We have an inquiry as to the blight
which so often attacks the apple tree,
causing the new growth and sometimes
that of the previous year to wither and
die as if scorched by fire; what it is
and how to prevent it. The disease is
Of meteorological origin, is destructive
and conta gious and seems to find in
certain varieties of apple trees and GER
tain favoring climatic conditions the
opportunities to do its worst work. We
have found that the crab family, espe-
cially the Transcendent, the Tetofsky
apple and very large per cent of the
Russian apples are specially subject to
this blight and we have often noticed
that where such varieties are affected
with blight other varieties adjacent not
subject to it will also be affected; hence
the wise man will not plant such varie-
ties of apples as are liable to this dis
ease. We know Of no remedy for the
trouble. Spraying does no good. We
cut the limb back as soon as the trou-
BILE appears and burn the prunings.
Very hot and wet weather seems to
promote the development Of the blight.

OEE FOR THE SOUTH.

THIS 10Th day of August has been
convention day for the house martins.
They have all been assembling and get
ting ready for their trip to the south
land. The parent birds have been put
ting the young ones through a series
of long flights to tit them for their
thousand mile trip. At some signal the
leader would take them all off for
trial spin. and in ten minutes back
they would come and perch on the cleo
trio light wires-a hundred of them,
spaced off just six inches apart. To-
day at shutdown, or perchance tomOr-
row. they will start again, and, wheel
ing around over the town once or twice,
perhaps to fix its location so that they
may return to the old nesting places
next May, they will wheel around to-
ward the sunny south and, travelling
hundred miles an hour. guided by an
unerring instinct, will greet the rising
sun thousand miles from their sum-
mer home.
Thou'rt gone; the abyss Of heaven
Hast swallowed up thy form, yet on my
heart
Deeply has sunk the lesson thou hast
given
And shall not soon depart.
