During an epidemic of grip Peruna
should be used. The doses recon-
mende6 on the bottle are sufficient.
After the grip has once been acquired,
DR.. Hartman recommends the use of
Peruna in teaspoonful doses every hour
during the acute stage, after which the
directions on the bottle should be fol-
lowed.
Experience has shown that the people
who use Peruna as a remedy for grip
generally recover sooner and are less
liable to the distressing and long-con-
tinued after-effects of the grip.
When Peruna has not been used dur
ing the course of the grip and the patient
finds himself suffering from the after
effects of this disease, a course of Peruna
should be resorted to.

TO no remedy until Peruna was tried"
Healthy MUCOUS Membranes.
Those who are fortunate enough to
have perfectly healthy mucous mem
branes ordinarily do not catch the grip.
The mucous membranes lining the
nose, throat and lungs, when in a
normal state, are an effectual barrier
against the invasion of grip.
But, if there happens to be the slight
est catarrhal arrangement of the
mucous membranes, then the victim be-
comes an easier prey to the grip.
This in part explains why some peo-
pie get the grip, while others do not.
The rational thing to do is to keep the
system free from catarrh. In attempt
ing to do this most people have found
Peruna to be invaluable.

SPLENDID TEAMOF
 THE HIGH SCHOOL
 WINS FIRST HONOR
By HUGH w. ROBERTS.

{ ceiyed the ball on the 6O-yard line and ran down clear field for touchdown. Before the conclusion of the game, the High school,' after fighting the ball within five yards of the Anniston goal. sent Davis through the line for the seventh touch down. Streit had very bad afternoon as far as goal kicking is concerned. He met with success but three times n seven trials and his single effort at goal from placement was a failure.
 The work of the High school boys, when consideration of their age and ex- perience is given is marvellous. They are fast, agile and gritty. They are plneky beyond comparison. They know nothing of phantom failure" that is said to exist While they have been fortunate in having good coaches. 1t is their spirit. after all which has wrought the result. Were the boys possessed of a spirit the whit less perfect, no coach, not even the best, could have made them what they are. There Is not particle of yellow discernable. There is not a man among the bunch who would ''holler." Everyone is a fighter, and many among the num- Der will star in later years on the teams of universities.
 The tower of strength of the team is Bradley Streit Quarterback Haley, though exceedingly light, is fast and a wonderful man in a tackle. Davis and Webb, though lighter, are equally az gressive as Streit in the back field. Ford and Lanier. the ends. are exceedingly small and light, but exceedingly clever. To many Ford in receiving forward passes, falling on fumbles and tackling on the defensive, was the brightest star of the game yesterday. Sherling, Powell, FFsA-- --4,1.. line, are exceedingly fine defensive men. McPherson, the substitute who played in yesterdays game, showed up as well as any one of the regulars.

l With unconquerable spirit the boys of ] the Birmingham High school have met and defeated every aggregation of it's ] class in Alabama this season.
 There is no one who would intimate l that another than the 1908 High school team is the champion of the prep, row in 1 this goodly state
 l If there is a single other claimant he has not raised his head If he does, it is more than probable that he would get l it knocked off.
 i The final victory of the season was scored yesterday when the High school outclassed the Alabama Presbyterian col lege of Anniston. winning easily, SS to D. From the time the ball was first snapped until the conclusion of the game. there was no doubt as to the outcome. It was a continual process of knock down and drag out. The High school boys romped over the field at will, circling the ends with rare outbursts of speed, smashing the line into smithereens, causing even the spectators who have seen Auburn. Sewauee, Alabama, Tennessee and other colleges this season, to stand thrilled by the excellence and novelty of their trick plays The only drawback to the vic- tory was that for the first time this sea son the High school goal was crossed. About the middle of the second half, Haley attempted to pass the ball to Cap tain Streit. Quarterback Kline of Annis- ton received the ball and when Haley was blocked by interference, the runner
 
 goal must be crossed, the High school Inasmuch as it was necessary that the is glad that Anniston accomplished the feat, for the visitors, although outclassed in every department and being without the counsel of a coach on field sur rounded by enemies, fought gamely from the opening to the close of the game. There is some excellent material on the Anniston team. and were the boys given the advantage of a seasons thorough coaching by man who knows the busi- ness. they would appear to much bet ter advantage.
 The first half ended in a score of Il to in favor of the High school. Shortly after the beginning of play Webb, shak- ing tackler after tackler of his skirts, circled right end in 40-yard dash for goal. Near the conclusion Of the half Ford received forward pass near the Anniston goal, and dived across. In the second half, in rapid succession, Cap tain Streit smashed the Anniston line for four touchdowns. His line bucking was as fierce as Birmingham has seen this season, and his handling of tacklers was superb Then it was that Haley at- tempted the forward pass to Streit, the pass that resulted in miscarriage and a disappointment Quarterback Kline of Anniston, dashing in ahead of Streit, re-
