What is Pe-ru-na.

Are we claiming too much for Peruna
when we claim it to be an effective
remedy for chronic eatarrh? Have We
abundant proof that Peruna is in real

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 1ispensatory says
of this herbal remedy, that 1t 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

it is used as bitter tonic and in the

years no investigator has been able to
obtain any more definite knowledge of
these matters than that this is the
wealth Of Trinity which she holds for
good purposes. How comes it that on
the east side of New York have been
built In recent years bright, clean, fire
proof and sanitary flats, in such num-
bers that certain regions have been
transformed by them, and life for those
that dwell in them has been changed
from dirtiest misery to something al
most suggestive of decency, while Trim
ity has done nothing of the kind?
How comes It that the Astor estate,
owner of hundreds of tenements. has
pursued for years one settled policy of
Improvements for the benefit of the
tenants, and the Trinity tenants have
been left to shift for themselves?
The Astor estate maintains no chart

beds and no Sunday school extensions

ance of actual good in the world Is In

Gates what even small measure Of civ

Gus conditions; the management of the

neglect can do to further and aggravate
barbarous conditions.

are terrific indictments of the condi-
tions of grab and gain and splendor
and shame that we tolerate.

us all. Trinity's tenements must work

often see wild yarns telling how n
mechanic with $500 to S4OO can make a
good living on few acres of land or a
stenographer or school teacher can earn
enough to support family with
chickens on a town lot.
People who are ignorant of the farm
ing business are often induced by these
silly stories TO throw up their jobs and
try 1t. Any kind Of farming is serious
business and requires lot of technical
knowledge, and it cannot be learned in
day or year.
If mechanic is so situated that he
can get piece OF land near his job on
which he can experiment, keeping close
to the payroll at the factory meantime,
he will be able to tell in a year or two
whether il is good thing or not.
Go very slow and when you venture
on farming or chicken raising, stick
close to some other kind of job that
will keep the meal tub supplied till you
are sure you can succeed. Then go at
