There are a great many phases OF
wOman's ailments that require the as
sistance of the surgeon.
But by far the greatest number or
such cases are amenable to correct
medicinal treatment.
A vast multitude of women have
been relieved from the ailments pecu-
liar to their sex through the use OF
Peruna.
Our Medical Department receives
many letters from all parts of the
country relating to subjects OF vital
interest to womankind.
OF the vast multitude of women who
take Peruna only very small per-
centage consider it necessary to write
us on the subject.
While it is not affirmed that Peruna
will relieve every case of this kind, 1t
is certainly the part of wisdom for
every woman so afflicted to give fe-
runa a fair trial.

Flowing ties have come into their

displays an amazing set Of contrasts

with Halloween so near everybody
is casting about for suggestions for
their own participation in the fun of
this mysterious fete evening, and
many have been the requests which
have come TO me for ways and means
of Halloween entertainment
Il is wise to plan for this mystic

Place in a row three saucers, one
containing milk, the second contain
ing water. and the third, empty. Blind
fold the guests and let each one dip
her finger in one Of the saucers. The
girl who dips her finger into the
saucer containing milk will marry
riches: the one choosing the saucer
Of water will be poor and the one
who dips into the empty saucer VIII

case may be.
