There is nothing so disgusting as
the everlasting pictures of the scenes
of the Chicago theater disaster One
would think death an unusual thing,
something we are not used to. and
that comes but rarely into the COM
munity. One would believe, If ore
did not know better, that death is a
terrible thing, instead of the friend of
humanity. We have little control over
this bit of human clay that houses our
immortal spark. and its weakness and
worthlessness are emphasized at such
a time. This fact may give a shadow
of excuse for exploiting such a dis
aster as this theater affair. But to our
mind It shows that death is nothing.

Hundreds Of Women Cured by Pe-ru-na
Of ANNOYING Catarrh.

nR. HARTMAN has probably done
~ 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 lifelong
study. His remedy, popularity known as
Peruna, Is the most famous remedy for
atarrh in existence.
Probably there is not 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.

Peruna.
Peruna produces clean mucous mem

cover that course of Peruna will do more
toward restoring youthful beauty than all
