OF course doctors disagree about
Peruna, the same as they do on all
other subjects. Il is generally thought
that the doctors are unanimously on
posed 90 Peruna II is well known that
Peruna has cured a great many cases
after doctors have given them M.
This would naturally excite animositv
or jealousy on the part of the doctors.
Then it is a fact that the average doc
tor is opposed to ready-made medi-
cines Of all kinds. They know very
well If a bottle of medicine is sold at
the drug store that means that some
doctor loses a prescription and per-
haps a patient. So they are generally
opposed TO patent medicines. or ready
made medicines as they call them.
But ever since Peruna has been sold
| have known of many doctors who
are in favor of Peruna. Some of them
believe in it secretly, others openly.
All this time I have been receiving
letters from regular practicing physi-
clans Offering to send me testimonials
as to the virtues of Peruna, provided
l would pay them for doing so.
It is nothing unusual that a doctor
should expect pay for such a service.
The manufacturers Of so-called ethi-
cal preparations advertised in the
medical journals, used by the doctors
only, are i'm the habit of paying doc
tors for testimonials. If a doctor has
found someone of these proprietary
remedies useful and can write a good,
smart article about it, the manufac-
ture- is perfectly willing to pay the
doctor for this service So it is per-
fectly natural for doctors to write to
me telling me that they know of cases
where Peruna has made marvellous
cures. and are willing to furnish me
the facts if ! will pay them.
But / have always refused to pay
for such service. ! have invariably
made a courteous reply 20 the doc
tor, telling him il is opposed TO my
policy and principles to pay for tes-
timonials either directly or Indirect
ly. There would be no trouble at all
in my obtaining hundreds of testi-
monials from doctors If ] would pay

COPENHAGEN, Oct 29-Karin
Michalis, the author of The Danger
Gus Age" who is now Mrs. STANCE
land. and lives in America. contri-
butes an article to The Politken, in
which she gives her impressions Of
the modern American woman
She says the moral standard in
America is doubtless higher than in
Europe. although many things which
are done openly in Europe are hidden
in America under a mask Of hypocrisy.
Mrs. Stangeland says:
1.-The American man regards wo-
men as a kind Of higher being and If
he refuses to admit her il is because.
he thinks she is too good for work
or politics. Fidelity TO the marriage
vows is general among American wo-
man.
"The woman has no cause to be
otherwise than faithful. being per-
fectly content with her lot, as her
husband does everything to please her
and treats her after IS years of mar
ried life the same as after Is days"
In giving a word picture of Fifth
avenue, New York. between 2 and 5
o'clock in the afternoon, when only
women are visible because the men
are at work, the writer says:
"The monde and the demi-monde
cannot be distinguished apart. Both
are terribly painted and their golden
hair and violet eyes are of the highest
chic, as well as their lilliputian an
kles and violet lips. This mingling
of the monde and demi-monde is a
terrible temptation TO young girls.
Much could be said about this, but
the problem is taboo in the American
press, although horrible murders may
be told in detail with pictures and let
ter press"
The only topic on which Mrs.
Stangeland does not touch in the ar
ticle is "the dangerous age" in Amer
lea, at which much disappointment is
expressed here.

used Peruna and offers TO give me a
very remarkable testimonial if I
would pay him for doing so. He does
not get any price but expects me to
oner him something which of course
refused TO do. He said. II have been
afflicted with a sub acute inflamma-
tory condition of the post nasal space.

cess. Your Peruna entirely relieved
