u. s. DlSPENSATORY
Describes the Principal ingredients
Contained in Pe-ru-nd.

Are we claiming too much for Peruna
when we claim it to be an effective
remedy for chronic catsrrh? Have we
abundant proof that Peruna is in real
ity such catarrh remedy? Let US see
what the United States Dispensatory
says of the principal ingredients of
Peruua.
Take, for instance, the ingredient
hvdrastis canadensis, or golden seal.
The United States Dispensatory says
of this herbal remedy, that it is largely
employed in the treatment of depraved
mucous membranes, chronic rhinitis
(nasal catarrh), atomic dyspepsia tca'
tarrh of the stomach, chronic intesti.
nal catarrh, catarrhal jaundice, (ca-
tarrh of the liver and in diseased
mucous membranes of the pelvic organs.
1t is also recommended for the treat
ment of various forms of diseases pc
culiar to women.
Another ingredient of Peruna, cory
dalis formosa, is classed in the United
States Dispensatory as tonic. So also
is cubebs classed as a stonachic and as
tonic for the mucous membranes.
Cedron seeds is another ingredient of
Peruna, an excellent drug that has
been very largely overlooked by the
medical profession for the past fifty
years. The seeds are to be found in
very few drug stores. The United
States Dispensatory says of the action
of cedron that it is used as bitter
tonic and in the treatment of dysentery,
and in intermittent diseases as a sub
stitute for quinine.
Oil of copaiba, another ingredient OF
Peruna, is classed by the United States
Dispen satory as a mild stimulant and
6iuretic. It acts on the stomach and
intestinal tract. It acts as stimu-
liant on the genito-urinary membranes.
Useful in chronic cystitis, chronic dys-
EMERY and diarrhea, and some chronic
diseases of the liver and kidneys.

mails of what the people think of Pc
runa as a catar-h remedy. The best
evidence is the testimony of those who
have tried it.

Bill Hepburn, our talented and artist
lex blacksmith has give out notice that
he is a going to apply for a license at
the Co. seat and start saloon in Bing-
vile for the edihcashion and accom-
modashion OF the community.
This statement on the part of Bill has
caused horror to strike to the hearts Of
the most respected citizens Of Bing-
Vile who say they will fight the start
ing up of a saloon in ,Pingville to the
bitter death and steps Have already been
took to combat this evil which threat
ems to rear its hideous head in our
midst and to corrupt our morals and
blight our fair name, as you might say.
Bill states that he has several good
reasons for starting a saloon in Bing-
vile the first and most important Of
which is that if there was a saloon in
our midst Bill he wouldn't haft to go TO
the Co. seat to ticker up every Satter-
day as he has been doing years out OF
number. Bill says It is a awful chore
to haft to drive 10 miles once q week
TO get little mite Of ticker to warm
the inner man as you might say when
he might as we'll have a saloon full at
home ali the time where it would be
handy for him. Besides he says that
he calkilatcs that If he had a stock Of
ticker on hand he could dispose Of
il to those who was thirsty and
desired ticker at profit and
thus probably accumulate more riches
per annum than he could in his black
smith shop shoing kicking horses and
rambunckshious colts which when he
tries to put shoes on them lams him
across the shop every once IN a while
and thus endangers his life and limb
for him
Bill says he notices that there is
many citizens of Bingville including
some of the deacons Of the Bingville
Church who are allus hollering against
the evil of strong drink and yet he
says that when in the past he has Of
fered them a little taste OF spiritus
frumenti he never noticed that they
complained about it being too strong
for them and never had any reputable
citizen OF Bingville refuse a drink. For
instance tother ev'Q. in Hen Weathers-
by's store Deacon Butterworth was talk
ing purity high against Bill starting a
saloon in our midst when who should
walk in but Bill hisself. The deacon
shut up as quick as a clam but Bill had
herd enough to git the drift of the
conversation and so he up and asked
the Deacon If he remembered that time
he come into his shop all shivverin
and cold one day last winter to warm
hisself by the forge and Bill seeing that
he was most froze up to his feet as you
might say went and dug UP a half
pint of ticker from under a pile Of
old scrap iron in the corner where he
had hid It and took out the cork and
handed it TO the deacon and Bill asked
him if he remembered that when he
got through with that half pint of
Ticker there wasn't nothing left but the
empty bottle? The deacon he chewed
his tobacco in silence for a. few min
utes and then he slid outen the store
and snuk home
Be that as il may Bill Hepburn is
q going to have some trouble before
he starts his saloon in this town. The
