Pat had got hurt-not much more

ployer had visions Of being compelled
to keep him for life, and had adopted
the wise course Of sending him at once
to the hospital. After the house sur

said to the nurse:
"As simultaneous abrasion is not OBJ
servable. do not think there is any
reason to apprehend tegumental cica-
irritation of the wound"
Then, turning to the patient, he
asked, quizzically:

The Evolution of
Household Remedies.

The modern patent medicine bust
ness Is the natural outgrowth Of the
old-time household remedies.
In the early history of this country,
EVERY FAMILY HAD ITS HOME.
MADE MEDICINES. Herb teas,
bitters, laxatives and tonics, were TO be
found in almost every house, compound.
cd by the housewife, sometimes assisted
by the apothecary or the family doctor.
Such remedies as picra, which was
aloes and quassia, dissolved in apple
brandy. Sometimes hop tonic, made
Of whiskey, hops and bitter barks. A
score or moro Of popular, homemade
remedies were thus compounded, the
formulate for which were passed along
from house to house, sometimes written,
sometimes verbally communicated.
The patent medicine business Is
natural outgrowth from this whole
some, old-time custom. In the begin
ming, some enterprising doctor, i'm
pressed by the usefulness Of one of
these homemade remedies, would take
1t up, improve it in many ways, manu-
facture 1t on large scale, advertise It
mainly through almanacs for the home,
and thus 1t would become used over q
large area. LATTERLYT THE HOUSE
HOLD REMEDY BUSINESS TOOK
A MORE EXACT AND SCIENTIFIC
FORM.
Peruna was originally one of these
lsld-time remedies. 1t was used by the
Mennonites, of Pennsylvania, before it
was offered to the public for sale. DR..
Hartman, THE ORIGINAL COM
FOUNDER OF PERUNA, is of Men
MONTE origin. First, he prescribed it
for his neighbors and his patients.
The sale Of 1t increased, and at last he
established a mandatory and fur
nished it to the general drug trade.
Peruna Is useful in q great many
climatic ailments, such as coughs, colds,
sore throat, bronchitis, and catarrhal
diseases generally. THOUSANDS OF
FAMILIES HAVE LEARNED THE
USE OF PERUNA and its value in the
treatment of these ailments. They
have learned to trust and believe in
DR.. Hartman's Judgment, and to rely
on his remedy, Peruna.
