Hundreds Of Women Cured by Pe.ru.na
Of Annoying Catarrh.

nR. HARTMAN has probably done
H. more than any other physician
toward popularizing means of
escape from the facial deformities, such
as watery eyes, twisted nose, offensive
breath, dry cracked lips, due to the raw
aging effects of catarrh.
He has made chronic catarrh a lifelong
study. His remedy, popularity known as
Peruna, is the most famous remedy for
catarrh in existence.
robably there is not a man or woman,
boy or girl, within the bounds of the
United States that has not heard of Pc
runa. BY far the largest majority have
used Peruna.
The multitude of people that have been
cured of chronic catarrh by using Peruna
can never be known.

Many girl has regained her faded
beauty, many matron has heightened
the days of her comely appearance by using
Peruna.
Peruna produces clean mucous men,
branes, the base of facial symmetry and a
perfect complexion.
The women have not been slow to dis
cover that course Of Peruna will do more
toward restoring youthful beauty than all
the devices known to science.
While it is true that Peruna cures ca
tarrh wherever located, yet it is advis-
able for everyone to use Peruna as a
preventive and not wait until catarrh

Nor am I in sym pathy with the doctors ingenious argu- ment that the most strongly marked pro- ducts of Poe's genius are to be referred to a diseased mental and nervous condi- tion. This is simply Nordau's contention that all genius Is d disease. According to this view, ali men of great intellectual power--e. G., Nordau himself and pr. William Lee Howard!-are insane. and yet 1t Is a fact that the mad houses are chiefly peopled with the average sort Of human beings.
 No, the first of American poets was not mad because he wrote Hfhe Raven" and The House of Usher" and "Ligeia" and The Red Death" These masterpieces indeed prove that he was at certain for tunate times in possession of that highest and most potential sanity. that mems divinior, from which true artistic creation. results-aiways the rareBt and most beautiful phenomenon in the world

New Light on the Life of Jesus," is the title of a new book by Dr. Charles "A. Briggs which Is sure to provoke a great deal of discussion.
 In this volume Dr. Briggs sets forth a new order of the events and teaching in the life of Jesus in the light of which large proportion of the disputes as to the harmony of the gospels disappear. This new light solves most of the difficult problems Of the gospels. fills up the chasm between the synoptists and the gospel of St, John and satisfies the most searching inquiries of modern Higher Criticism and Historical Criticism.
 The author also has traced the various special teachings of Jesus and specially the Messianic idea from their origin in historical situations. through their devel- opment in accordance with historical cir- cumstances, even to their climax. The result is revolutionary so far as modern opinions are concerned; but actually the results are conservative, being in the main a return to ancient opinions. espe- ciaily those of Tatian. the early Chris various gospels also becomes much easier of explanation.
 '"The book" says the author in his pre- face, must go into the fires of criticism. and the hotter the better. If the light is true light 1t will abide. The question is submitted with confidence to Christian and the Christian public" Inc book Is not technical. but it has been so written as to make 1t useful and interesting to all intelligent persons.
