FHE season of catching cold is upon

THE season of catching cold is upon
III us. The cough and the sneeze and
nasal twang are to be heard on every
hand. The origin of chronic catarrh, the
most common and dreadful of diseases, is
a cold.
This is tho way the chronic catarrh gen.
orally begins. A person catches cold,
which hangs on longer than usual. The
cold generally starts in the head and
throat. Then follows sensitivencss OF the
Dir passages which incline one to catch
cold very easily. At last the person has a
cold all the while seemingly, more or less
discharge from the nose, hawking, spit
ting, frequent clearing of the throat, nos
trils stopped up, full feeling in the head
and sore, inhamed throat.
The best time to treat catarrh is at the
very beginning. A bottle of Peruna prop
erly used never fails to cure q common
cold, thus preventing chronic catarrh.
While many people have scen cured of
chronic catarrh by a single bottle of
Peruna, yet, as a rule, when the catarrh
becomes thoroughly fixed, more than one
bottle is necessary to complete cure.
Peruna has cured cases innumerable
of catarrh of twenty years standing.
It is the best, if not the only internal
remedy for chronic catarrh in existence.
But prevention is far better than cure
Every person subject to catching cold
should take Peruna at once at the slight
est symptom of cold or sore throat at
this season of the year and thus prevent
what is almost certain to end in chronic
catarrh-

Quiet Children.

Watch the child carefully who is
always quiet. This is quite an unnat'
ural state Of affairs, and shows that
something is wrong. Those who &c
much among the schools OF the very
poor know that it often means lassi-
tude from want of proper nourish-
inert. If it occurs in the children OF
the better off it shows that vitality
is low, and that for some reason or
another the food is not giving tie

French seemed to be making no re-

slight respite and the smoke cleared

officers were striving desperately TO
