Bull Attacks Auto,

Baton Rouge.-To have his automo
bile attacked byNa bull is the unusual
experience of Fred Perkins Of this
city, while driving a machine down
the Hope Villa road. The bull, seeing
the machine coming, raced down the
road about a mile ahead of the automo-
bile, and as the machine passed the
bull made plunge at it, struck the
fender and running board, tearing it
up badly. The bull was surprised at
the shock he received, and did not
renew the attack, while Mr.. Perkins
put on a little more speed and left
the bull far behind.

Constipation and Catarrh

For many years l have been wreet
ling with the problem Of furnishing
the public an internal catarrh remedy.
Peruna has been the remedy that
have devised and it has certainly re-
lieved many thousand people. yes hun.
dreds of thousands of people, of chron-
ic cdtarrh.
Constipation was my chief difficulty
in treating these cases often felt
that 1t would be better IL laxative
element were added to Peruna. /
feared to do so, however, first because
of the number of catarrhal patients
who needed no laxative, and second
was afraid OF making such q radical
change in a remedy that was already
doing so we'll. Thus it was that con-
tinued to prescribe with the Peruna a
bottle of Manalin to those who needed
a laxative. At last, under circum-
stances explained in my booklet, ! was
constrained to add the laxative ele-
ment tO Pefuna. This constitutes what
is now known as the revised Peruna.
Now those who take Peruna will,
first. find themselves promptly re-
lieved of their constipation. Second.
the catarrh will gradually disappear.
And once the catarrh is cured the con-
stipation leaves permanently. Then If
you follow the advice given In my
book, you will never have to take pills
any more Cathartics and laxatives
you can ignore. You will be perma-
nently relieved of both your catarrh
and the constipation.
