Pc RU- ma A MEDICAL COMPOUND

In any medical compound Is much depends upon the manner in which il lie
compounded a IS upon the ingredients used.
First, there must be a due proportion of the ingredients. Each drug in the
pharmacopea has it's special action. To combine any drug with other drugs
have slightly different action, the combination must be made With suiA
reference to the Use for which the compound is intended. The drugs may I've
well selected al to their efficacy, but the compound ENTIRELY SPOILED BIZ
THE PROPORTION in which they are combined.
1t takes years and years of experience to discover this proportion. There
is no law of chemistry, of pharmacy, by which the exact balance Of proportion
al be determined. EXPERIENCE is THE ONLY GUIDE.
In compromising a catarrh remedy DR.. Hartw@n has had many years er
perience. In the use Of the various ingredients which compose the catsrrh
remedy, Peruna, he has learned, little by little, how to harmonic the action of
each ingredient, how to combine them into a stable compound, how II arrange
them into such nice proportions as % blend the TASTE the operation and the
chemical pecuianhes Of each several ingredient in order II produce a pharma-
ceutical product beyond the criticism of doctors, pharmacists OF chemists.
WE REPEAT, THAT AS MUCH DEPENDS ON THE WAY IN WHICH
THE DRUGS ARE COMBINED AS DEPENDS UPON THE DRUGS THEM
SELVES.
The compound must present a stability which is not affected by changes of
Temperature, lot affected by exposure to the air, not affected by age. 1t must
be so combined that it viii remain just the same whether used in the logging or
mining eamPsof the northwest Or the coffee plantations of the tropics.
A complete list of the ingredients of Peruna would not enable any druggist
or physician to reproduce Peruna- II ii the skill and sagacty by which these
ingredients are brought together that give Peruna much of its peculiar claims 10
IN ehcacous catMTh remedy.
However much virtue each ingredient of Peruna may possess, the value of
the compound depends Largely upon the manner and proportion in which they
are combined. The right ingredients, put together rightly, is the only wy a
medical compound an be made Of real value.

OPEN THE WINDOWS
FRESH AIR ESSENTIAL TO PRE-
VENT CONSUMPTION.
Dangerous to Neglect Even an ordin-
airy Cough or coId-simple Rem
edy Is Effective.

Good food, fresh air and rest; keep
your windows open winter and sum
mer."
So we are told by the great scient-
lists who are certainly doing wonders
In reducing the death rate from Tuber-
culosis. They also warn us not to neg
lect a cold or cough, and it is most i'm
portant that this advice be followed.
While the cough or cold may not bring
consumption, it is better to be on the
safe side and take no chances.
Here is a simple remedy that will
break up a cold in t~wenty-four hours,
and cure any cough that is durable:
~Glycerine, two ounces; Virgin Oil of
Pine (Pure), one-half ounce; good
Whisky, a half pint. Shake well and
use in te~aspoonful doses every four
hours. The ingredients can be secured
rom any good prescription druggist at
small cost, but must be pure to effect
The desired results. For this reason it
IS always best to purchase the ingredi-
ents separately and prepare the mix
.ure at home.
Virgin Oil of Pine (Pure) should be
purchased only in the original half
n walls put up for druggists to
dispense. Each vial is enclosed in a
round wooden case, with engraved
wrapper, with the name-Virgin Oil of
Pine (Pure); guaranteed under the
Food and Drug Act, June 80. 1906.

WAGES Good asmeIIersD Earn.

There are several trades which pro-
vide men and women with good liv-
Ing simply because they enjoy an *
ceptionally keen sense of smell, says
the London World. Scentmakers, for
example, need some one with a very
delicate of smell to aid them
in mixing the ingredients of perfumes
in proper proportions. Queen Alex
Rndra's favorite perfume violet
costs 910 per ounce bottle, and it
has to run the gauntlet of five pro-
tessional "smellers" before it is
passed as being correctly blended and
ready for her majesty's use.
Some Of the feading firms of per-
fume makers pay their 'smellers"
from "a to ct a week. Contractors
for the lighting of streets. large pub
lie buildings and pleasure grounds
very often engage "smellers" to find
escapes of gas, one shilling being gen.
orally paid for each escape reported.
Some of these men frequently make
over 93 in a single week, the result
being that in many cases the fee has
been reduced to Sd. per escape re-
ported.

SAND FOR P~AsTRY-RoARD.
Better Than Soap or Soda to Preserve
Whiteness.

In scrubbing a pastry-board, to get
1t a nice white, plenty of sand must
be used in this way. First wash the
board, then sprinkle it with sand and
scrub 1t with a brush the same way as
the grain of the wood, so that the dirt
is taken off without making the board
rough. Rinse the sand off in plenty of
cold water, wipe 1t with a clean cloth,
and set 1t in the air until dry. In
%scrubbing floors and tables do not use
soda, for it makes boards a bad color,
and does not cleanse better than soar

RAFFLEs COW TO BUY LEG.
Ingenious Scheme of a Man Disabled
by a Train.

II there is more than one way to
skin a cat, there is certainly more
than one way in which to acquire a
cork leg. The usual way is to earn
money and buy it, says the New
York World. The way adopted by
julius Thorne, who lives at Glens
Falls, is to let a COW raise herself
and then rattle her off for a leg.
Thorne was hit by a railroad train
about a year ago, and when the doc
tors cut off his left leg. a disease Of
the bone set in. The injured man
was taken home, where, while he
lay on his back waiting for the bone
to heal, he cast about for some NEAR
whereby he could procure a cork leg.
Being supplied with little in the way
of the worlds goods, Thorn was
forced to use his ingenuity. From a
neighbor he bought for a couple of
dollars a sickly calf less than a month
old This he raised on SKINNED milk
provided by another neighbor who
made his W butter, and in time the
cali got strong enough to be turned
out to pasture. Grazing around cost
little, and while the calf was growing
and fattening Thorne made baskets
that he might have enough cash to
winter the animal. BY fall he had
earned enough to more than do this,
and recently he started a rattle. All
his friends took tickets, and when the
drawing takes place Thorne will cele-
Drate by wearing his new cork leg.
