to know what they will do? Read the
following letter and see. If you have
any doubt as to the genuineness of the
letter, write to Mrs. Lohr, enclose

testimonial is genuine or not:
Ravenna, Mich, June 10, 1908.

In regard to the Peruna Tablets, I
have used about ten boxes in all.
While 1 was In Chicago my oldest
daughter was bothered with a cough
all the time. She has had it for four
years. Sometimes it would go away,
and in the winter time it was so bad
that the doctors and professors said
that she had consumption, and the only
| way to give her any relief was to per-
form an operation.
I spend so much money for different
medicines, and for doctors also. Moth
ing seemed to help her.
so saw the Peruna Tablets adver.
tised in the paper, and 1 got box
and tried them. She could get some
sleep by taking them. She would be up
all night and cough. So in all she took
six boxes, and never was bothered any
more.
1 will leave this for any one to in
quire at our old residence, where we
lived in Chicago. All our neighbors
would say that she could not live with
such a cough. You don't know how
thankful 1 am. She is eighteen years
old.
My oldest son also was bothered with
his stomach, throwing up, and his
bowels so loose all the time. He was
oil run down for four months. 1 also
doctored with him. One would say this
and the other something else. started
in to give him the Tablets, and now he
is all right and healthy looking. He
took four boxes. That is all he wants
to take whenever anything ails him.
So praise your Tablets just as high

the medicine that ever comes in my
house. Whenever travel take some

Just before the primary election this

attack on Hon. Chase 8. Osborn. The
latter promptly caused the arrest of L..

Postal Savings Banks.

1t has been unofficially announced
that by November 1sr it will be posi-
BILE to open few postal savings banks
at different points throughout the coun.
try, the number being limited by the
fact that but $4,000 was appropriated
by congress to start the system. An
additional allowance will be granted at
the session which opens in December so
that before the close of the present ifs.
cal year the banks will be general.
In depositing in the postal banks the
public is given an opportunity to save
only few cents at time, and they
will not as rule appeal to the larger
depositors. Two per cent interest will
be allowed, but the system will no
doubt induce many who are putting
away their savings in some nook in the
house to deposit in these banks as they
will be assured of safety. A stamp of
the denomination of ten cents will be
issued to each depositor and this is to be
attached to card which originally cost
ten cents When nine stamps have
been attached to the card it is to be
brought to the postoffice, where certi.
ficate will be given out in exchange
with the amount of one dollar punched
therein. When ten dollars has been
deposited, which is shown by the
amount punched in the certificate, this
is turned in and new one is issued.
Final certificates are to be is the denom-
nations of go, $50 and $50. A special
stamp Of an artistic appearance has
been designed, as we'll as a new two

correspondence of the department,
