ORANGE GROWERS PROTEST

Visalia, Gala mass meeting of
orange growers was held at Lindsay
yesterday to devise ways and means
to induce the Southern Pacific COM
pany to furnish cars for the trans
portation of oranges to eastern mar
kets. The car shortage was consid-
cred and 1t was the unanimous opin-
ion that the railroad company had
no excuse for its failure to handle the
business offered. A committee was
appointed to secure legal advice and
consider the proposition of taking the
matter before the interstate commerce
commission so that action may be
taken by congress at once, should the
rnr,u,ission find legislation necessary.

We found Peruna a relief In several
cases.
We can say IT Is q good tonic and we
are very thankful
Sisters of the Good Shepherd
When catarrh once fastens itself upon
the system, 1t becomes an obstinate dis
ease to eradicate
A systemic remedy-one that reaches
every internal organ Of the body-is an
absolute necessity.
Peruna is just snch remedy. 1t
searches out the cause Of the disease,
healing and streng thening the mucous
membranes, and thus giving Nature an
opportunity to perform her part OF the
restorative process.
One OF the many hospitals which
have found Pcruna OF valne In treating
old and obstinate cases Of catarrh is the
Hospital st. Johu, who write, AS
follows:
1--WE are happy to tell you that your
Peruna has given us satisfaction. Three
patients have tried 1t, one 6S years old,
Renoui Dupuis, afflicted with catarrh, Is
much relieved, more than he has been
for number OF years.
~ young girl. IS years old. had an
obstinate cough. which half . bottle OF
Peruna caused to disappear.
GAS to myself, two bottles have con-
vinced me that Peruna is magnificent
as q tonic.

"Through these three cases we desire
to make known to the public the Of
ficiency Of your remedy"
Hospital st. John, OF st. Johns,
Province OF Quebec.
A later letter received from the same
Institution reads as follows:
Three weeks ago 4 wrote to tell
yo. hOw satisfactory we found
Peruna. We recommend 1t highly for
colds. coughs. cafarrh and neuralgia.
81 have used it myself as tonic with
the best results, taken as directed, half
a teaspoonful every half hour"
Peruna not only promptly relieves
coughs and colds In their first stages,
but Is equally prompt and efficient for
catarrhal diseases in the chronic stage.
or course, ~ IL only reasonable to
suppose that o great deal less medicine
will be necessary to cure slight attack
OF catarrh than would DO required to
relieve the ailnent after 1t had been al
lowed TO become chronic.
Directions for taking the remedy will
be found on each bottle, also in DR..
Hartman's book, called "The Ills of
Life," (which can be obtained from your
druggist for the asking.
For special instructions write to DR..
Hartman, President OF the Hartman
Sanitarium, Columbus, Ohio.

CATARRH of the respiratory organs
~ Is common ailment in Canada for
At least two othirds of the year.
This condition Ia no doubt caused by
the long, severe winters experienced In
this part of the continent.
Therefore, when Peruna was dis
covered by Canadian people to be re-
liable remedy for these catarrhal dis
eases, 1t at once became popular medi-
cine, not only among individuals and
where 1t was used as a preventative and
relief In hundreds OF cases.
These Institutions do not hesitate to
give their endorsement of the remedy
which has been so helpful in the treat
ment of their poor and sick.
Among these institutions ia that Of
the Sisters of Good Shepherd, who gave
the following endorsement:
The Peruna Company,
Columbus. Ohio.
Having used Peruna for the past few
months, for our sick and poor, we are
happy to say that 1t has given us great
satisfaction.
The Sisters of the Good Shepherd,
August 20, 1908. Montreal.
After q continued use of the remedy,
this institution has found no reason to
change its good opinion OF the remedy
and expresses its satisfaction in the fol-
lowing terms:
