Ont OF Sight,

"Out Of sight, out of mind" Is an old
saying which applies with special force
to a sore, burn or wound that's been
treated with Bucklen's Arnica Salve.
It's out of sight, out of mind and out
of existence. Piles too and cbilblains
disappear under its healing influence.

The Evolution of
 Household Remedies,

The mpdern patent medicine busi- ness is the natural outgrowth of the ,ld-time household remedies.
 In the early history Of this country, EVERY FANNY HAD ITS HOME MADE MEDICINES. Herb teas, bitters, laxatives and tonies, 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 piera, 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 formulae for which were passed along from house 10 house, sometimes written, sometimes verbally communicated.
 The patent medicine business is natural outgrowth from this whole some, old-time custom. In the begin ming, some enterprising doctor, i'm pressed by the usefulness of one of these homemade remedies, would take it up, improve it in many ways, manu- facture it on a large scale, advertise it mainly through almanaes for the home, and thus it would become used over large area. LATTERLY THE HOUSE 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 nnsylvania, before it was offered to the public for sale. pr. Hartman, THE ORIGINAL COM FOUNDER OF PERUNA, is of Men nonite origin. First, he prescribed it for his neighbors and his patients. The sale of it increased, and at last he established a manufaetory and fur. nished it to the general drug trade.
 Peruna is useful in 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 it's value in the treatment of these ailments. They have learned to trust and believe in Dr. Hartmen's 5 judgment, and to rely on his remedy, Peruna.

The child commences to educate Il m- self first of all things His big. eafi- ous eyes open to everything. and ee learns this and that thing until one day he stands among men as man.
