Pe-ru-na Contains No Narcotics.
One reason why Peruna has found per-
manent use in so many homes is that 1t
contains no narcotic of any kind. Peruna
is perfectly harmless. 1t can be used any
length of time without acquiring a drug
habit. Peruna does not produce temporary
results. 1t is permanent in its effect.
II has no bad effect upon the system,
and gradually eliminates catarrh by re-
moving the cause of catarrh. There are a
multitude of homes where Peruna has been
used off and on for twenty years. Such
a thing could not be possible if Peruna
contained any drugs of a narcotic nature.

There should be. SO far as practic-
able, an equal division of labor, an
equal division OF responsibilities, and
an equal division OF financial re-
turns. The woman's labors and re-
sponsibilities should be within the
home, the mans, for the greater
part, outside of it. Success in her
realm is Of as much, If not more,
importance to both than success in
his. A business failure is small
affair when compared with domes-
tic failure. The one is a mere mat
ter of money, the other affects body,
mind, and soul. The wife should be
supreme within her sphere, but with
that supremacy she should accept
the responsibilities that belong to
it and be held accountable for re-
suits. On the other hand she should
not interfere In his province, but
each should ask for and receive the
advice and help and encouragement
of the other.
But, you ask, how can this theory
be put into practical application. BY
applying ordinary business prinei-
ples-principles which, regret to
say. are very seldom applied to do
nestle affairs in the right way. The
trouble is that the average business
man runs his home as ne would his
store. considering his wife as a sim
pie item Of expense, an expense
which he pays in an irregular way
as her needs, expressed or implied.
seem to require; or in the form of a
fixed allowance. The first method
places her in the position of men
'dicant or pensioner, the second i'm
proves her standing but makes her
relation 10 him something in the ma
ture OF a salaried employee. While
the latter is far the better plan of
the two, giving the wife as 1t does a
certain independence impossible with
the former. 1t is not, L believe, the
true relation, which should be one

each having the same interest, it is
probable that you would divide the

her; those who do not love her do
not know her. And there are plenty
of people who do not know Marilla,

mental processes run on a totally
different schedule from hers. They
are not on her wire. But this you
can depend upon--she makes no eff

ments, and allow her to expend the
money without question or interfer-
ence. She'll come to you for advice
when she needs ii. She'll come to
you for more money when she needs
it, but if the amount is rightly fixed
she will seldom have to do that. She
will take pride in keeping within
her limit, and more than likely will
save more money than you VIII. In
the matter of small economies a wo-
man can beat man every time, but
she must have personal interest in
the saving, must feel that IL Is hers
without restriction. She will prob
ably spend most Of it on you, or Will
surprise you by digging up roll as
big as your arm some time when you
are in desperate need of it. A wo-
man is always trustworthy If she is
trusted. The mans point Is to make
her feel that there is no string tied
to the amount given her, that 1t is
hers absolutely, but that she is ex-
pected to meet certain expenses.
Suppose, for example, you figure up
your fixed charges, as the railroad
man would say. Under this head
will come your rent, your water Ii
cense, taxes, insurance. servants

for indefinite expenses. as provisions,
clothing. car fare, Doctors bills, re-
pairs, and so on. Take upon your
self the payment of all accounts ex-
cept the current fiuctuating expenses
of the household and the personal
expenses of your wife. That would
give to her the responsibility for the
payment of all the bills from the
grocer, the butcher, the milk and ice
dealers, and other table accounts, as
well as her own clothing, etc. Then
divide your salary in proportion to
the relative expenditures of each.
II you assume one-half the expendi-
ture divide your salary equally. If
your part of the expense is three
fifths or three-fourths, reserve that
proportion of your income for your
self. That is the plan l have fol-
lowed for many years, and it has
worked well.
Another plan which has its adyan-
tages, and which Is based like the
other on the partnership idea, is to
place your salary each week or each
month, as you may receive it, in a
common receptacle at home. Each
of you should have free and unques-
toned access to this fund, and what
ever is left can be deposited in the
bank. from time to time. A memo
randum book should be kept with
the money and all Withdrawals
should be properly noted. The adj
vantage of this system is its sim
plicity. Its disadvantages arise from
the dangers of loss by theft or other
