Peruna cured me, strengthened me
more than ever and saved me money.
A BieyeIist's Experience
Mr.. John Perrault, 335 Davidson St,
Boulevard st. Paul, near Montreal,
Canada, writes:
II have been a bicyclist for over five
years, and last spring I caught cold
and did not take anything for it, for
thought it was not bad enough, but il
came to Catarrh.
Il was so discouraged that I didn't
know what to do. I could not sleep. I
always felt tired and troubled.
Finally I began to take Peruna.
After / had taken one bottle felt bet
ter 1 took another one, and now I am
well. 1 would like always to feel as
do today.
"I often recommend Peruna to my
friends"
PE-RU-NA IN TABLET FORM
For two years DR.. Hartman and his
assistants have necessarily labOred to
create Peruna in tablet form. and their
strenuous labors have just been
crowned with success. People who OBJ
iect to liquid medicines can now secure
Peruna tablets. which represent the
solid medicinal ingredients of Peruna.
Each tablet is equivalent to one aver
a Cp dose of peruua.

Mr.. Murphy in some way learned that
Elwe1 was no longer my friend, and
just before the case came up, Monday
last, went away back to Minnesota for
the man. This trip was kept a profound
secret It was his intention to surprise
and dumfounded me while l was on the
witness stano.
His plan worked beautifully. While
Murphy's lawyer was verbally attempt
ing to pound me to a pulp, in rushed
Murphy with Elwell at his side.
Il suppose he thought / would collapse,
but 1 didn't.
Later Elwell was placed on the stand.
and swore that he had had no trans
actions with me or through me. This,
however. he qualified before he left the
stand. 1 produced a book in court with
a record of the transactions.
THE fact that all these spectacular
maneuvers had little to do with the per-
it's of the case on trial Is shown in'the
verdict in favor of Kunkel. 1t saved
him from less, and that is what I was
laboring for.
AT the same time, I might add that
/ intend to turn the tables on those who
have attempted to injure me l intend
to begin both civil and criminal actions
when the situation is cleared we shall
see who stands best in the eyes of the
public-those who carried off a poor
mans home, or the man who stood up to
defend the rights of the injured man."

No other remedy in the world has re-
ceived so many testimonials from peo-
pie of high station as Peruna. Not
only by people of high station. but Of

from millionaire to day laborer, Peru
ma has been lauded and recommended
for the various climatic ailments of
summer and winter.

THIS BUTTER FULL WEIGHT
Kansas Product Underselling Local
Brands Put Up in Prints
Weighing 16-0unces.

independent retail grocers handling
eastern butter in Salt Lake take strong
exception to the statement given out
by H. ]. Faust, jr., president of the
Faust Creamery & Supply company,
Yesterday, in which he declared the
kansas butter is being sold here in
prints weighing less than pound;
that II is not fresh butter, and that
the law is being violated by it's sale
in this market. This statement was
made by Mr.. Faust in defending the
sale of local butter in packages
stamped 151z ounces.
The Farmers Union company on
Market Row handles the Kansas but
ter extensively. charging 3214 cents for
a pound weighing sixteen ounces.
II can best answer the charge that
the Kansas butter is short weight by
weighing up the shipment I received
this morning." declared H. E. Bassford.
manager of the Farmers Union, yes
terday afternoon, in reply to Mr..
Faust's charges. He took five separate
pound packages of the Kansas butter
from the shipment received yesterday
and weighed them in the presence of a
Herald reporter. All five of the pack
ages weighed exactly sixteen ounces
each, or a trifle over.
THAT shows the falSity of the
charges better than words" said Mr..
Bassford. TT is not true that the but
ter is shipped out here in freight cars.
1t comes through in refrigerator cars,
and is absolutely fresh when it gets
here. City Food Inspector Frazier Wis
tied this place this morning, examined
the shipment of Kansas butter l had
just received, and pronounced it fresh.
If there is any law being violated in
the sale of this butter by me at lower
prices than the local made butter is
sold for. neither Mr.. Frazier nor | know
what the law is. Fresh butter is fresh
butter, and 1 don't know why locally
made butter that is fresh should be
worth more than any other kind Of
fresh butter of the same grade.
The local firms cut off our shipments
last year, and I don't intend they shall
do so again. We shall continue to nm
dersell the local combine and give the
consumer a full pound in the bar
