remedy for chronic catarrh? Have we
abundant proof that Peruna is in real
ity such catarrh remedyY 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 IL 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 substitute for
quinine.

will dole out to them an average OF
more than six months apiece. More
than that would be overdraft, for hon.
oring which the guardian of the hour
glass and the scythe should be held
directly responsible.
According TO these same mortality
tables life Is seen to be thing of uncer-
tainties. They prove unquestionably
that the longer you live the older
you are likely to be before you die.
That is to say, while the expectation
of life decreases as the age advances,
1t does not fall away nearly so fast as
that advance.
The youngster of ten can count on
living to be nearly So, but when he
has reached the manly age Of 81 his
chances are better. He can now
count on rounding 81. = At 4S, rotund
and jolly, his chances are the best
for living out the allotted span Of
three score years and ten.
Bat that is not the end Of his hopes

Red Rose on Coffin of Bismarck's Friend

York Stats Zeitung and other papers.
Then his actress wife died, leaving
him with three children. He moved
to Winona, Mimi, where he took
charge of the Herald.
After a. few years he married again.
He came to Washington and went to
work in the storeroom of the govern
ment printing Office. The heavy work
Of lifting documents was too much for
the old man and he suffered a severe
strain, which made an operation nec-
essary.
All his life the old soldier wore a
rose of red, but he never told why un-
Ill few days before his death.
The story of the red rose was woven
around the figure of Bismarck, whom
he loved.
A battle which the iron chancellor
had been witnessing had ended. the
sun was setting on a field of carnage,
and Bismarck, with bowed head,
turned and rode away, his aids around
him.
The figure Of young officer In the
full pride Of manhood lying white
faced on the field caught the eve Of
the prime minister. Without u word
he dismounted, picked red rose from
bush near by and placed 1t over the
young officers heart. And as he
placed it there tear fell from his
eye. So, when the old baron died, un-
honored, unknown, they placed red
rose on his breast, for they knew his
secret at last.
