Some doctors may write in favor Of Pc
runa. Other doctors may write against
It. But tho testimony of the mothers
and fathers who ere rearing families,
who love their children, who must
economic as 20 doctor bills, who are
raising little boys and girls into:men and
women of the future, it Is the testimony
of such people that really counts.
There is no way to positively ascertain
how many families in the United States
rely upon Peruna for the many climatic
ailments to which the family is subject.
The number must be n great one. Sever
al millions perhaps. They have learned
how to use Peruna for ordinary all
ments, and in that way are guarding
their homes against more serious dis
eases.
Such ailments as coughs and colds,
sore throat and catarrh, Group and collie,
indigestion and loss of appetite, anemia
and nervousness, all these ailments arc
promptly relieved by q few doses of
Peruna at the right time.
Millions of provident mothers and
fathers are guarding tho interests of the
home by using DIR. Hartman's great
remedy, and profiting by his medical
booklets and personal advice.

Protection Urged
For Our Forests,

Boston. Ian 1O-The interest of ti!e
officials of the great textile mills of
New England in the proposed national
forests of the White mountains and
the Southern Appalachian mountains
was concluslvely shown by meeting
In this city today. called for the ex-
press purpose OF taking some effective
action In support of the bill recently
introduced i'm Congress. 1t resulted in
the appointment of two representative
committees OF the manufacturing in
terests.
Former Governor Frank w. Rollins
Of New Hampshire presided. In stat
ing the object of the meeting he said
that il Is generally conceded that
there are few questions Of greater inn
portance to New England than that
which affects the eQuable flow of the
four great rivers. running from the
White mountain region-the Conncc-
ticut, the Merrimac, the Saco and the
Androscoggin.
These rivers, he said. taking their
rise in the White Mountain country
turn more spindles than any other
streams of equal volume in the world
while the undeveloped watcrpowers
are Of vast Importance for the future.
Attention was called to the fact that
bills to secure the establishment OF
national forests in the White noun
tains and the southern Appalachians
had been before the last two Con-
crosses. At the last session the bill
passed the Senate and received IA
vorable report to the House from tho
committee on agriculture. \ new bill
has been introduced in the Goth Con-
gress and the campaign in its support
has now opened. Charles f. Stone OF
Stone & Webster. Boston. stated that
his experience as n mill operator in the
South showed the effect of forest cut
ting upon stream flow. Actual meas
urement Of the streams indicated that
the flow was more variable after cut
ting. especially when fires followed The
logging. He would urge Congress t.
take prompt action.
After some further conference and
informal discussions Frederick Amory
moved that a committee be appointed
to express to members of Congress,
and others the attitude of the manu-
featuring interest on this issue. Fred
A Amory, Franklin Hobbs and
Charles A. Stone We're named for this
service.
J. e. Varney of the Bay State Bank
OF Lawrence. proposed that a larger
ADVISORY committee be created. and
this idea the meeting adopted and the
members will be announced later.
