Letters testifying to the fact that Pc
runa is q radical cure for catarrh are
constantly pouring in from every state
in the union. Thousands of such letters
are on file in the Office of The Peruna
Medicine company.
The following letters taken at random
from our files give a testimonial from
each state in the union:
Frank Hung erford of BowbeIIs. N. D.,
Writes: II have been afflicted with ca
tarrh for fifteen years. I tried different
physicians and medicines of all kinds
but without the least relief until I tried
Peruna, four bottles of which entirely
cured me-
Attorney Leon j. CharIes of WInsoW. Arizona.
Writes from personal experience I
advocate Peruna as a safe, proper and
indeed necessary medicine to every
business man who is worn out, tired and

pany, Columbus, o. The figures We're
taken from the latest mortal statistics
published by the government and en-
tirely agree with the archives kept at

The figures on each state represent
the total number of deaths from ca

This Is an appalling state of affairs.
This Nation has got to confront the
fact that catarrh has become a national
curse.
Catarrhal diseases threaten the life
of our people.
Over one-haIf of the people suffer
from some form or degree OF catarrh.
Fully thirty -fIVe million people are
personally interested In the discovery
of a radical catarrE1 cure.
Peruna Is the main expectation In
this direction.
Peruna is an internal, systemic ca
tarrh remedy.
Its cures are SO prompt and perna-

attention.

Land is stiffening i'll value to all

come inquiries about strawberry
lands, close to town. AS the area
close to town under the ditch is
limited, the prices are bound to
advance year by year. 1t has been
proven to the satisfaction of every
one this season, that strawberry
land will yield a net income to the

augment tho normal flow.
On May 9th a notice was
posted at Hooper, on the Palouse
river, and filed at Colfax appro-
priating water from that stream
to the amount of $4,000 cubic

On account of the marked
variation in the flow of water
in the Palouse river at different
seasons of the year, vast storage
reservoir capacity is an essential
factor in the Palousc river
scheme lift is to reclaim any
large area of arid land. While
the average flow of the Palouse
river at Hooper, taken tho year
around, is between 500 add 700
cubic feet per second, this flows
chiefly during the season of
high water, the stream falling
during certain periods of the
summer season to but % cubic
feet per second.
The proposed Washtucna
lake storage reservoir will cover
several thousand acres and be
the largest reservoir contem-
plated in the general project.
But OH account of the heavy
flow of the river during the
early spring season, it is neces-
sary to provide other reservoirs
on the Palouso river and its
branches, to so caro- for the
waters as to enable them to be
carried in the ditch which will
be constructed from the river to
Washtucna Lake. One such
reservoir is contemplated at
Rock Lake, which is about ten
miles long and from half a mile
to q mile and a half in width.
