THE MOTHERS PROBLEM
or Raising Strong, Healthy Girls.

Il serious problem which presents ~
self to every mother with girls to raise,
in these days. The exigencies of school
life, the hurry and routine of everyday
duties, the artificial environment of
modern civilization, make it more
uifficult to raise strong, healthy girls
than ever in the history of the world.
Boys raise themselves. Give them
room, give them liberty, ard they will
grow up healthy at least, without much
worrying. But the girls present SER
ious problem.
How many mothers there are who are
worrying about their daughters. Ner-
vous, puny girls, with poor, capricious
appetites, bloodless, listless, o constant
anxiety to the mother. How shall she
solve her problem? To whom shah she
turn for help? Each case is more or
less a study by itself, and cannot be
solved by any general rule.
This is the way one mother solved the
problem. Mrs. Schopfer, 1920 Prescott
Ave-, st. Louis, Mo-, in a letter to DIR.
Hartman, says: "My daughter Alice,
four years of age, was puny, siclIly,
aiIing child since she was born. l was
always doctoring her. When we COM
menced to use Peruna she grew strong
and WELL"
Another mother, Mrs. Martha Moss,
R.F. 5, Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin,
saws: sour little eight-year- girl
had bad cough, and was in a general
rundown condition." She had several
doctors, who could give the child no re-
lief, and the mother no encouragement.
Finally, she got bottle of Peruna
and commenced giving it to the child,
and it proved to be just what she
needed. When she commenced taking
Peruna the child had to be carried.
Now the mother says she is play ing
around all the time.
Her closing words were: "You have
done a grea. deal for her. She is the
only girl we have. and it meant lots to
us to have her cured"
These are, samples OF many letters
which DIR. Hartman is receiving, COM
ing straight from the hearts of loving
mothers. While the different schools
of medicine are pickering and differing
o. to theories and remedies, Peruna
goes right steadily on giving permanent
relief. After all, it is cures that the
people want. Theories are OF little
account.

not found 1t necessary to ask for any
rights. l have closed a deal to come
in over the Tri-City lines. and so do
not find 1t necessary to secure any 9TH

TO Begin Work Soon.
He declared that the line he is pro-
noting is certain to be constructed.
and stated that the building opera
lions would begin in July. Mr.. Nc
Whitney is very enthusiastic over the
project, and says there is no doubt
about the construction of the line. Ha

urban promoter, and built one of the
