highest praise, for it is reliable and will
never disappoint you.''-Mrs. j. G.
Garrett.
There are two things that the whole
medical profession agree about concern
ing catarrh. The first is that catarrh is
the most prevalent and omnipresent dis
ease to which the people in the United
States are subject. All classes Of people
have it. Those who stay indoors much
and those who go outdoors much. !.
Working classes have it and sedentary
classes have it.

slant and ever-present foe. It compli-

NASAL CATARRH CURED


which all doctors agree, is that it is diff
| ficult to cure it. Local remedies NAV
give relief but they fail to cure perma-
nently. Sprays or snuffs amount to
little or nothing except to give tempo
| rary relief.
Catarrh is frequently located in inter-
nal organs which cannot be reached by
any sort Of local treatment. All this is
known by every physician.
TO devise some systemic internal REM
edy which would reach catarrh at it's
source, to eradicate it permanently from
the system-this has been the desire of
the medical profession for a long time.
Forty years ago DR.. Hartman confronted
this problem. He believed then that he
had solved it. He still believes he has
solved it. He cures thousands of people
annually. During all these years Pc
runa has been the remedy upon which
he has relied.
1t was at first q 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 devised to cure any case Of catarrh,
however long the case may have been
standing.

They were walking toward DR.. Hen

gether. 1t was out of business hours
and the rooms were deserted. DR.
Henderson carried his patient into his
private sitting room and disappeared
for moment to give an order.
Carter interested himself in a study
of the unique furnishings of the
apartment, all of which bore char
acteristic reflection of the specialists

Presently he paled and caught his
breath; the life-sized portrait of q

smiled down at him from the space
above the mantel. The face was grave

When DR.. Henderson returned, a
few moments later, Carter had con-
trolled his agitation, at least outward
ly. After a little desultory talk he
enquired, casually, regarding the por-
trait.
The doctor raised his eyes, flushing
trifle as his glance swept the pic
tured face

replied, and a smile came to his lips,
that she is my promised wife. We

Carter was silent; quick, grayish
pallor shrouded his face; his tongue
seemed thickening beyond all power
of utterance.
"She is as loveable as she is lovely"
the other went on, with an involun-
tary, almost boyish eagerness to pour
out his heart to someone. "A woman

Deep shadows In emboughed trees
Are homes wherein to stay,
Green forest-vistas build with ease,
The spirits glad highway.
Phe aspen leafs fine tremolo
Can never quite be still,
But oscillates, now swift, now slow,
On light-hung pediciel.
All forest-stems, or dark or gay,
Or straight, or bent, love,
But most the aspen's bole of gray,
In hue soft as a dove.
And birches that, mid dappled green,
Stand like the columns light
OF marble temples in the sheen
OF alabaster white.
AT noon a woodsy fragrance lifts
Distilled by midday heat,
And redolent 1t dreams and drifts,
TILL all the air is sweet.
The feathery, curling ferns possess
Damp hollows of the woods,
Their fronded tribes the forest bless
Emerald beatitudes.

Tone-music of the breeze,
Blown from mountain gorge remote,
To play upon the trees.

'She couldn't ever have-have really
cared for him, then?"
"Oh, l think not, at the last; she
couldn't very well, you know, after
everything"
A clock somewhere in the neighbor-
hood struck two and Carter rose to
go. ''Ill be in tomorrow at ten," he
said oarelessly, and closed the door
behind him.
But tomorrow came and went, and
he was not there; and many more to-
morrows, until a month had slipped
by.
Finally, one day, in glancing over
his morning mail, DR.. Henderson was
not in the least surprised to come
across a letter bearing the Manila
postmark and addressed in the
scrawling, backhand of his patient.
A check for generous amount was
enclosed, and just few lines on half a
sheet of note paper solved the situa-
ton.
