Al9O S0bre las Intermediates de la
MuieT.

Lo que auteriormente llamaban en-
fermedad femenil, es ahora conocida
por la ciencia m6dica, como catarro
pGlvico. Sc ha descubierto por exper-
~iencia, que Intermediates catarrales de
los 6rganos ptlvicos, son las causas de
muchas intermediates en- la mujer.
Ell Doctor Hartman fu6 uno de los
primeros entire los mas c6lebres doc
torres de America, que hizo este des-
cubrimiento. Por cuarenta amos ha
estado practicando con Intermediates
propias de la mujer y hace tempo
lego a la conclusion, que mujeres libres
de affection catarrhal en- dichos 6rganos
no estan ~sujetas a intermediates feme.

para estos casos y la encontr6 tan ad-
mirablemente adaptada para curas per.
manentes, que ha llegado d ser ell rene
dio mas famoso que Sc couoce para las
enfermedades de la muier.
La Peruna fortaleze los ~nervios, hace
recupcrar ell apetito, y normaliza la
digestion.

puramente femoniles que cualquier otfo

Plumb Bob Hurled Through
Window of Car on Spec
iaI Train.

Washington. Dec As President
Roosevelt's special train was passing
through North Philadelphia AT 7:30
Saturday evening en- route TO Wash
ington, an unknown person hurled a
mason's plumb bob through one of the
windows of the car Salvius. The i'm
plement was of iron and weighed about
Two and a half pounds. 1t fell at the
feet OF Mai Webb Hayes, son of the
late President Hayes. who was d pas
senger on the train. Fragments Of
broken glass fell on Hayes, but he was
in no wise injured.
Authorities VIII Invesfisate.
The SalVius was the forward car of
the train and might easily have been
mistaken for the presidents private
car. Hayes was sitting at the window
reading. The profile view of him is
not at all unlike that Of the president
No clew to the throWer of the mis-
sile was obtained. although the Incl
dent was reported TO the officers OF
the Pennsylvania railroad at Philadel-
phia and the statement was made that
ii would be investigated thoroughly.
The president himself knew nothing Of
the matter until nearly an hour after
IL occurred. The railroad officials are
inclined 10 the belief that the plumb
was thrown by a boy. as incidents OF a
similar character have occurred be-
fore.
