HALF OUR ILLS
ARE CATARRHAL
IN NATURE.
Catarrhal Diseases are Most
Prevalent in Winter.
Is THERE NO WAY OF
ESCAPE FROM THEM?
Pe-ru-na Never Fails to Cure
Catarrh Wherever
located.

There are some things which are as
Eure az fate, and can be relied on 10 occur
10 at least one-half of the human family
unless means are taken TO prevent.
First, the climate of winter is sure to
bring colds.
Second, colds not promptly cured are
sure TO cause catarrh.
Third, catarrh improperly treated is
sure to make life short and miserable.
Catarrh spares no organ or function of
the body. 1t is capable OF destroying
sight, taste, smell, hearing, digestion,
secrsticn, assimilation and excrerion.
1t pervsdes every part Of the human
BODY. head, throat, stomach, bowels,
bronchial tubes, lungs, liver, kidneys,
bladder and other pelvic organs,
That Peruna cures catarrh wherever
located is attesied By the following tes-
timonials sent entirely unsolicited TO
DR.. Hartman by grateful men and wo-
men who have been cured by Peruna:

Indeed, absence of worthy occupa-

OF Children In Factories
Austin, Texas, January 18,--The first labor
measure of the session was introduced In
the house today by Representative Callan
OF Bexar. II is known az the child labor
bin and Is aimed 10 prohibit the employ
ment of children OF tender years In mills

years for mills and factories generally, and
at Is years for mines, breweries and dis
tilleries. Every employer Of labor is re-
quired to keep on Ale an affidavit Of the
parent or guardian as to the age OF each

This bill is the outgrowth Of the agitation
against child labor which has been going
on throughout the South since the advent
of factories. At present Texas has no fac-
tory laws OF any Kind and no restriction is
placed on either the age or time OF employ
ment.
The bill is championed by the workingmen
OF the state. who will keep a representative
here during the session to urge IT'S passage.
IL was the influence OF organized labor tnat

In the democratic platform at G1lyeston.
At its recent session III Houston the Texas
Federation OF Labor instructed Its legiHla-
tive committee TO place this measure FIRST
on its list OF laws TO be asked OF the Twen-
ty.eighth legislature.
has also Endorsed the measure, and at the
recent convention In Beaumont Instructed
Its officers aud members to do oil in their
power to influence the legislature to pass
this law. The State Teachers association
only last week gave the measure Its indorse
ment.
