The Evolution of
Household Remedies.

The modern patent medicine bust
ness is the natural outgrowth Of ths
old-time household remedies.
In the early history of this country,
EVERY FAMILY HAD ITS HOME.
MADE MEDICINES. Herb teas,
bitters, laxatives and tonics, were to be
found in almost every house, compound
ed by the housewife, sometimes assisted
by the apothecary or the family doctor.
Such remedies as picra, which was
aloes and quassia, dissolved in apple
brandy. Sometimes hop tonic, made
of whiskey, hops and bitter barks. a
score or more of popular, homemade
remedies were thus compounded, the
formulate for which were passed along
from house to house, sometimes written,
sometimes verbally communicated.
The patent medicine business is a
natural outgrowth from this whole
some, old.time custom. In the begin
ming, some enterprising doctor, in
pressed by the usefulness of one of
these homemade remedies, would take
it up, improve it in many ways, manu-
facture it on large scale, advertise it
mainly through almanacs for the home,
and thus it would become used over a
large area. LATTERLY THEH0USE-
HOLD REMEDY BUSINESS TOOK
a MORE EXACT AND SCIENTIFIC
FORM.
Peruna was originally one of these
Old-time remedies. It was used by the
MennOnites, of Pennsylvania, before it
was offered to the public for sale. DR..
Hartman, THE ORIGINAL COM
FOUNDER OF PERUNA, is of Men
MONTE origin. First, he prescribed it
for his neighbors and his patients.
The sale of it increased, and at last he
established mandatory and fur
nished it to the general drug trade.
Peruna is useful in a great many
climatic ailments, such as coughs, colds,
sore throat, bronchitis, and catarrhal
diseases generally. THOUSANDS OF
FAMILIES HAVE LEARNED THE
USE OF PERUNA and its value in the
treatment of these ailments. They
have learned to trust and believe in
Dr.. Hartman's judgment, and to rely
on his remedy, Peruna.

DEVELOPMENTS Expected.

washington May 2S.-According to
statements made today by officials of
the department of justice. important
developments may be expected in the
near future in the Honduras lottery
cases. A story was current today that
some of the officials would plead
guilty. While he would not deny or
affirm the story, Attorney General
Bonaparte intimated that there would
be some important news in connection
with the matter soon. The depart
ment had been contemplating a move
against the alleged violators of the lot
terry law in Delaware, but if the prin-
cipals who are now under Indictment
plead guilty, this will be obviated.
