BOLD ROBIN HOODS DAY.
May 1 the Anniversary of the Death
of the Noted Woodsmau,

of the Noted Woodsmau.
An immense lot of leases still date
from May 1, says the New York Com.
mercial Advertiser, but not many of
the lessons or lessees know that this
is simply an adjournment of few
days from st. Georges day, from
which the leases Of their ancestors
used to run. This again dates from
the more remote period when the date
was fixed at the time Of one moon
after the spring equinox. May day as
a day for strikes of workmen is not
thing Of recent years. 1t has the
sanction of centuries, If Of nothing
else. May 1 is the day on which bold
Robin Hood was bled to death by his
treacherous relative, and sped his last
arrow, which marked where his grave
should be. The date 10 at least as Ger.
tain as that on which Remus made his
unlueky jump over the rising walls
Of Rome. Robin Hood was the hero
and saint of the common people of
England, and for centuries the May

Catarrh Of the Stomach is Generally
Called Dyspepsia Something
to Produce Artificial Diges-
tiOn is Generally Taken.
Hence pepSin, pancreatin and a Host
Of Other Digestive Dsmsdies
Has Been Invented.
These Remedies Do Not Reach the
Seat Of Difficulty, Whish
Is Really Catarrh.

BxU. s. Senator NJ. U. Butler from
South Carolina, was senator from that
state for two terms. In recent letter
to The Peruna Medicine Co., from
Washington, d. c., Gays:
81 can recommend Peruna for dys-
pepsia and stomach trouble. l have
been using your medicine for short
period and feel very much relieved.
II is indeed wonderful medicine be-
sides good tonic. IN. c. Butler.
The only rational way to cure dys.
pepsia is to remove the catarrh.
Peruna cures catarrh. Peruna does
not produce artificial digestion. 1t
cures catarrh and leaves the stomach TO
perform digestion in natural way.
This is vastly better and eafer than re.
sorting to artificial methods.
Peruna has cured more cases Of dys.
pepsia than all other remedies COM
bined, simply because it cures catarrh
wherever located. II catarrh is To-
Gated in the head. Peruna cures it. II
catarrh has fastened itself in the throat
or bronchial tubes, Peruna cures it.
When catarrh becomes settled in the
stomach, Peruna cures it, as we'll in
this location as in any other.
Peruna is not simply remedy for
dyspepsia. Peruna is a catarrh rem.
edy. Peruna cures dyspepsia because
it is generally dependent upon catarrh.
