A Remarkable Record.

Chamberlain's Cough Remedy has a
remarkable record. 1t has been in
use for over thirty years, during which
time many million bottles have been
sold and used. 1t has long been the
standard and main reliance in the
treatment of Group in thousands OF
homes, yet during this time no case
has ever been reported to the manu-
facturers in which 1T failed to effect a
cure. When given as soon as the child
becomes hoarse or even as soon as the
croupy cough appears, it will prevent
the attack. 1t is pleasant to take,
many children like 1t. 1t contains no
opium or other harmful substance
and may be given as confidently to a
baby as to an adult. For sale by all
druggists.

"A APASTOR'SWlFE:,n. ,.,as "a,% ',,,,,.. .
She Suffered for Years and
Felt Her Case Was Hope
less-Cured by
Peruna.

MFRS. ANNA B. FLEHARTY, recent
Itl Superintendent of the w. @. T. u.
headquarters, at Galesburg, Ill, was for
ten years one Of the leading women there.
Her husband, when living, was first
President of the Nebraska Wesleyan
University, ut Lincoln, Neb.
In q letter written from zO1 Sixty
seventh street, W., Chicago, III, Mrs.
Fleharty says the following IN regard to
Peruna:
aHaving lived avery active life as wife
and working partner Of busy minister,
my heath failed me few years ago. I
lost my husband about the same time,
and gradually I seemed TO lose health
and spirit. My daughter Ia o confirmed
invalid, and we both felt great need of
an invigorator.
some of my neighbors advised me
to try Peruns. A b0ffie was fmnsediafc-
ly secured and q great change took
place ia my daughters as welt as In
my own health. Our appefifes I'm
proved very greatly the digestion
seemed much helped, and resffuf sleep
soon improved as, 80 that we seemed
like new women.
"I would not be without Perura for
ten times Its cost. "--Mrs. Anna b.
FIeharty.
What used to be called female diseases
by the medical profession Is now called
pelvic catarrh. 1t has been found by
experience that Catarrhal diseases Of the
pelvic organs are the cause OF most cases
Of female disease.
DR.. Hartman was among the first of
Americas great physicians to mako this
discovery. For forty years he has been
treating diseases peculiar 70 women, and
long ago he reached the conclusion that
o woman entirely free from catarrhal
affection of these organs would not be
snbject TO female disease. He therefore
began using Peruna for these cases and
found IL 80 admirably adapted to their
permanent cure that Peruna has now
become the most famous remedy for
female diseases ever known. Every
where the women are using 1t and prais-
ing 1t. Peruna Is not palliative sim
ply; 1t cures by removing the cause Of
female disease.
DIR. Hartman has probably cured more
women OF female ailments than any
other living physician. He makes these
cures simply by using and recommend
ing Peruna.
