That Young Lady Had Much
Ingenuity.

Across the line on the Kansas side
where the study of agriculture is
compulsory, one of the high school
girls took home her monthly report
card and proudly announced:
II took the highest grade in the
class In history, English literature
and German"
That's all very WE'LL" replied her
father, critically examining the card,
but how about this grade in agricul-
ture?"
"oh, WELL" explained the daughter,
I'm no hayseed!"

peared.
And how do you account for this
grade in department? he inquired.

In reply l wish to say, first, that I

give Peruna trial. l know of no
other remedy that would be so likely
to be Of use to you in your present
condition as Peruna. Take a table
spoonful before each meal and at bed
time, Continue this for two or three
weeks and then if there is anything
you wish to ask me further write me
and will give your letter prompt at
tention.
If l find that the Peruna is not

and tell you so, for l would not have
you take Peruna unless it was really

Kidney disease begins with catarrh

remedy. Unless the destruction OF the
kidneys is already too great Peruna
