CHURCH WORKER SAYS
SHE OWES HER LIFE TO PE=RUENA.
HER GREAT FORTUNE.
A Woman Saved From Lifelong
Misery and Made Happy
and Useful.

A confined to the house for
several years with a chronic female
arrangement had finally given up hope
Of being cured.
She had tried physician after physi-
clan, and remedy after remedy, without
any permanent improvement.
Her treatment had cost her husband
who was a poor man, hundreds of dol
lars. They had been Obliged to deny
themselves many comforts of life in
order to get money enough to pay the
physicians.
The woman had become weak, nervous
and wretched, and scarcely able to keep
out of her bed. Her children were
growing up neglected and ragged, be-
cause Of the want of a mothers care.
Her husband was. becoming discouraged
and broken down with overwork.
Picking up the paper one day she hap
pened to read an item which contained
the news that DR.. Hartman would treat
such cases free of charge by letter. She
Immediately wrote the doctor describing
her case, and giving him all her symp-
toms.
She oon received a letter telling her
exactly what to do, and what medicines
and appliances to get. She began the
treatment (the principal remedy being
Peruna) at once, and in a few weeks she
was we'll and strong again, able to do
her own work.
This offer of free home treatment to
women is still open to all who may need
the services of this eminent physician.
All letters applying for treatment will
be promptly answered, and be held
strictly confidential.
Miss Annie Hoban, Post Pocahontas
of Yemassee Council of Red Men
(Women's Branch), writes from 872
Eighth Ave, New York:
Three months ago l was troubled
with backache and a troublesome heavi-
ness about the stomach. Sleep brought
me no rest for it was a restless sleep.
The doctor said my nervous system
was out of order, but his prescriptions
didn't seem to relieve me. | was told
that Peruna was good for building up
the nervous system. After using it for
two months / know now that it is. l
want to say that it made a new woman
of me. The torturirg symptoms have
all disappeared and l feel myself again.
Peruna did me more good than all the
other medicines | have taken"
ANNIE HOBAN.
Miss Mamie Powell, Lake Charles,
Louisiana, writes:
81 sincerely believe that Peruna is
woman's best friend, for it has certainly
been that to me. I had had headaches,
backaches and other aches every month
for a long time, but shortly after l be-
gan taking Peruna this was a thing of
the past, and l have good reason to be
grateful. I take a bottle every spring
and fall now, and that keeps my health
perfect, and l certainly am more robust
To- than l have been before and am
weighing more. | do not think any
n will be disappointed in the results
obtained from the use of Peruna."
MISS MAMIE POWELL.
If you do not derive prompt and salts
factory results from the use Of Peruna,
write at once to DR.. Hartman, giving a
full statement of your case, and he will
be pleased to give you his valuable ad-
vice gratis. a

Tommy's Essay on Preachers.

The following essay by a youthful
boarding school boy throws quite a new
and interesting light on church digni-
t@arles; There are three kinds of clergy
men bishups rectors and curats. the
bishups tell the rectors to work and the
curats have to do it. Curat is a thin
married man but when he is a rector he
gets fuller and can preech longer sermons
and becums a good man, we should all
ways Inspect a curat because sum day he
may BEGUN a rector and we must always
pity those who are low down in the world.
any of us may becum misfortunate so we
must not hit a man with a stone."-Chi-

out one by one and, after mauling the
