HEAVY LOSS IN

Maxwell, chairman of the West Vir-

relationship between denudt'd noun
tains and floods is better understood
than formerly, and the problem of
future timber supply has ceased to
be question for academic discussion.

one or more fires, some being small
and spreading through few woodlots

friend of Peruna. He does not hesitate
to give public endorsement to this very

AS tonic Peruna has no superior.
But it is as q catarrh remedy 1t has
achieved its worldwide notoriety and
success.
Any catarrh remedy to become per-
manently effectual in the cure of ca
tarrh must contain tonic and invigorat-
ing qualities with its anti-catarrhal
qualities. Catarrh Is always an express
sion of nerve weakness, either local
or general It is, therefore, important
that catarrh remedy should possess
reliable invigorating qualities In order
to thoroughly rid the system of catarrh.
