ARE CATARRHAL
IN NATURE.
Catarrhal Diseases are Most
Prevalent in Winter.
IS THERE NO WAY OF
ESCAPE FROM THEM2
Pe-ru-na Never Fails to Cure
Catarrh Wherever
Located.

There are some things which are as
sure as fate, and can be relied on to occur
20 at least one-half Of the human family
unless means are taken TO prevent.
First, the climate of winter is sure TO
bring colds.
Second, colds not promptly cured are
sure to cause catarrh.
Third, catarrh improperly treated is
sure TO make life short and miserable.
Catarrh spares no organ or function Of
tho body. 1t is capable of destroying
sight, taste, smell, hearing, digestion,
secretion, assimilation and excretion.
IL pervades every part of the human
body, head, throat, stomach, bowels,
bronchial tubes, lungs, liver, kidneys,
bladder and other pelvic organs,
That Peruna cures catarrh wherever
located is attested by the following tes-
timonials sent entirely unsolicited TO
DIR. Hartman by grateful men and wo-
men who have been cured by Peruna;

Billy Is All Right.

Berlin, Jan. 16.-The Kaiser person.
ally opened the Prussian parliament
this afternoon, reading his speech
from the throne in a strong, clear
voice.
On entering parliament he was pre-
ceded by two noble heralds, clad in
a motley and fantastic costume, es.
pecially designed by the kaiser. These
heralds will figure at all future state
functions. There was an unique and
embarrassing incident after the kaisel
closed his speech, when, according to
the inyariable custom the oldest dep
uty, the decrepit Herr senex called for
Rree cheers. He paused and waited,
but none came. It seemed as II the
diet had conspired to omit the dem.
onatration of loyalty. During the pain
ful interval which followed. the kaiG'
er irowned and then marched toward
Ihe door in dad silence. Just before
ne reached the portal Senex seemed
10 awake as from a day dream, and
started the hurahs. The whole as
-emoly which was apparently waiting
lor sen2X to start the cheering, Joined
with a hearty good will. The kaiser,
apprecla ing the joke, faced the as
'emoly and laughed heartily. The in
'oent closed with great hilarity.

Their lot Is indeed very various, but

Here is a great problem to solve.
The order Of nature seems to be that

The inquirer need not look far
ahead for a response to this question
especially II he be a dweller in a pop

man for a means OF living. but until
lately with an instructive selfshness
man has sadly limited the sphere Of
her labor.

rellbacy often perform a great work
