PERMANENTPAVEMENT
Few Want ibe Appropriation
 Used i0 Their District.

What will the city do with the money appropriated for permanent pavement? Very few want that class of work done in front of their prop erty, and when one considers the cost 1t is hard to blame them. It Is pretty generally believed that the cost of permanent pavement to abut- ting property owners should be con- siderably less than 1t is, and that class of work never will be very pop ular until some change is made whereby the cost will not be burden some to people who own property abutting upon the public ways. Peo- pie should pay something, but it is not fair to make the price so high that one would think the work was being done for the special benefit of few property owners, while as a matter of fact, the end in view is to get better roads for everybody.

Dr.. Hartman is now offering Peruna to the public as regular pharmaceu-
tal product, 1t is just a ethical as any compound put up for the medical
profession. NO sraning OF medical ethics can find any fault with it, THE
PKlNClrAL ACTIVE INGREDIENTS are prominently incorporated in the
label on the bottle, that the people may know that the claims made for Peruna
have q true justification.
The only departure we shall make from medical ethics in the conduct Of
Peruna affairs in the future, is the fact that we shall continue to advertise and
sell our product TO THE PEOPLE
II we would agree to sell to doctors only, to advertise for doctors only.
then the medica! fraternity would DO obliged to recognize Peruna rs being
entirely within their approval.
BUT WE SHALL NOT DO THIS.
We shall continue to offer Peruna to the people. We shall continue to
convey to tho people our claims for Peruna as q household remedy. We shall
continue to supply the people with free literature, teaching them how "a uso
our medicine, teaching them how to avoid disease teaching them MANY things
Of benefit to the home. We shall continue to do this, whether the medical
profession like to r not.
We are proposing from this time on to take the public into Jul confidence
Notwithstanding that some imtators and substutos will be attempting to
put up something which they consider justas good as Peruna, we are going to
draw aside the veil of secrecy and allow any one who chooses to know exaotv
OF WHAT PERUNA IS COMPOSED.

icism will continue. On some pretext Or other those who ae envious of the

able household remedy.
WE CLAIM PERUNA TO BE A cATARRH REMEDY. Buy a bottle and
try 1t. II it helps you, be honest and acknowledge that it has helped you.
If you want US to we will publish your statement exactly as you furnish IL

publish your portrait in connection with it. We will not do this without your
written request, without your entire consent.
Peruna has cured thousands of people of chronic catarrh, in many phases
and locations at least that is what the people say to us, through unsolicited
testimonials. Peruna will cure many thousand more, in spite Of fabricated

We guarantee that every testimonial we use is absolutely true-in tho

We know that the users of PMuna will appreciate our stand. We believe
that the dealers sin Peruna will applaud our course. We expect even our OPP
