Treat Cstarrh in Spring.
The spring is the time to treat catarrh.
Cold, wet winter weather often retards a
cure of catarrh. If course of Peruna is
taken during the early spring months the
cure will be prompt and permanent. There
can be no failures if Peruna is taken intel
ligently during the favorable weather of
spring
As a systemic catarrh remedy Peruna
eradicates catarrh from the system wher-
ever it may be located. 1t cures catarrh
of the stomach or bowels with the same
certainty as catarrh of the head.
If you do not derive prompt and salts
factory results from the use of Peruna, write
at once to DIR. Hartman giving a full state

How to Sleep Comfortably.

NJ. A. Faret a French scientist, has
undertaken to teach us how to sleep.
He has experimental scientifically in
the art of sleeping comfortably.
AS a result he advises the abolition
of the pillow and the bolster. The only
natural position for one to assume
while sleeping is the horizontal. First
one must get used to sleeping without
a bolster. The next step, he says, is to
remove the pillow, for not until then
will the circulation Of the blood be as
free as it should be-
In further explanation he says that
the pillow and the bolster keep The
head and neck at an abnormal angle.
and that consequently the alecper's en-
tire body remains during the night in
an uncomfortable position, and one
which impedes the free course Of tho
blood through the vessels and organs.
The only remedy, he maintains, is to
adopt a horizontal position, since by IL
alone is absolute rest guaranteed, and
this rest is due to the fact that in such
a position the ligaments OF the neck
are not strained or distortedsthe lungs
easily perform their proper work and
the heart beats regularly.

Fashions Latitude.

The wide latitude in the fashions
gives woman an ample opportunity,
and she can select her own most be-
coming style, whether it be the lam
guorous robe of Porto Rico or the snug
one Of Paris, the long gown Of Havana
or the short beaded one OF Hawaii.
A woman who brings home with her
from Europe every year a handsome
ornament has this season a rather odd
bit which she picked up at an antique
sale. 1t is supposed to have belonged
to somebody at some FAR distant time
And its material is all gems and silver
1t is a great bird, a big silver eagle,
looking so much like an American
eagle. And it is made with its wings
and breast studded with gems. This
big bird is appliqued to the gown in
such a manner that he faces you with
breast all cleaning, and with wings as
brilliant as little diamonds and rubies
galore can make them.
1t is an odd fashion season that per-
mits such a bird to be appliqued to the
waist Of a handsome white liberty
gown, but the effect is charming

This explains why Peruna has become so

Such cases cannot be treated locally;
