What is Pe-ru-na.

Are we claiming too much for Peruna
when we claim it to be an effective
remedy for chronic catarrh? Have we
abundant proof that Peruna is in real
fly such catarrh remedy? Let us see
what the United States Dispensatory
says of the principal ingredients of
Peruna.
Take, for instance, the ingredient
hydrastis 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 lining various
organs Of the human body.
Another ingredient of Peruna, cory
dalis formosa, is classed in the United
States Dispensatory as tonic.
Cedron seeds is another ingredient Of
Peruna. The United States Dispense
tory says of the action Of cedron that
1t is used as bitter tonic and in the
treatment of dysentery, and in inter.
mittent diseases as q substitute for
quinine.
Send to us for a free book Of testi-
monAals of what the people think of Pc
runa as a catarrh remedy. The best
evidence is the testimony Of those who
have tried it.

OF
GRAND ARMY OPEN
TOLEDO THRONGED WITH THE
VETERANS AND FRIENDS.
FIRST NIGHT is GORGEOUS
Venetian Night" on River, Public Re-
ception and Magnificent lliumna-
ton of City Delight the
Visitors.

Toledo, o., Sept. IA sweltering,
crushed and irritated person who had
struggled through the hordes of en-
campment visitors Tuesday estimated
the strangers within the city gates at
a round billion. This was an exaggera-
ton, however, for Adjt. Gen. Scott of
Illinois, who is judge of crowds, de-
clared that there was not more than
half that number-seemingly Inquiry
at the various headquarters where
newcomers report for assignment to
quarters indicated the presence of
sufficient number of out-of-town people
to swell Toledos 100000 to 100000.
What with the marvellous illumina-
ton of the downtown streets, the
Venetian Night on the river, and the
public reception by the local commit
tee and Commander-in-C Chief Burton,
and numerous other attractions mark
ing the formal opening of the forty
second encampment of the Grand
Army of the Republic, the downtown
streets were well-nigh impossible
Monday night
Big Crowd, Fine sight.
Fife and drum corps, brass bands,
arriving delegations and squads of
sight-seers blocked the pavements
from curb to curb. Street orators,
sideshows, catch-penny devices and
the like gathered their crowds and
made it seem that the boundaries of
the city had suddenly contracted and
squeezed the whole population into the
compass of few blocks. But the
sight was worth the battle for foot
room. Riot of color is a cold and
futile phrase to serve as descriptive
OF the Examinations and decorations.
Sunday it seemed that the use of
electricity and bunting could go no
further, but Toledo citizens were
merely experimenting. Monday night,
with the formal opening of the re-
union, all their batteries of astounding
color conceptions were turned loose,
and, as Capt. j. E. Meginn, who came
all the way from Mexico City and is
in post all by himself, said: 1T was
worth the money"
E. j. Freeman, with 100 army mu-
sicians, got into action with his fife
and drum experts, and arriving dele.
cations marched from the railroad sta
tons to the pulsations of quick-steps
which can be rendered only by the fife
and drum.
Cheers for Michigan Delegation.
The arrival of delegation of vet
Grams and their wives from Michigan
and the manner in which they fell in
behind one of the fife and drum corps
brought about a scene which those
who witnessed it will remember. As
the old pipers marched off at the
head of the column, nodding their
heads in unison with the beat of the
music, the veterans, side by side with
their white-haired wives, fell in be-
hind. A cheer came from the crowd
on the sidewalks, but it was a Sob
choked cheer, for tears had sprung
spontaneously from hundreds of eyes,
moved by the picture before them
There was no keeping accurate &C
count of arrivals. Headquarters Of
ficials declared Monday they would
hazard guess that 10000 to 10000
veterans were in the city.

The dogs days were numbered. He

This was in the morning and that

touch of something cola on his face.
Rubbing his eyes open he gazed into
the countenance Of the spotted dog

made the return trip to the pound, but
