HOW to restore ChinchiI1a.

Chinchllla is a becoming tur, but it
has way of taking on CHASTITY yellow
tinge when soiled. When this happens
it can be cleaned by this method: Take
a bag of fine sea sand, sift it well to
eliminate all grit or gravel, and then
rub it vigorously, just as hot as the
hand can bear it, through the fur. When
shaken out the fur will be found to have
resumed its freshness and that at the
cost of very little labor and no expense.

Yours very truly, w. IA. Lord.
1t will be noticed that the Governor
says he has not had occasion to use Pc

for this is, most other ailments begin
with cold. Using Peruna to promptly
cure colds, heprotects his family against
other ailments. This is exactly what
every other family in the United States
should do. Keep Peruna in the house.
Use it for coughs, colds, la grippe, and
