After a hasty examination of the
case | prescribed Pe-ru-na to be taken
every hour, and if she was not better
in the morning to let me know.
1t was two weeks before / again
heard from the case, when the hus-
band entered my Office, radiant with
joy, and, not waiting for the usual
salutatiOns, exclaimed:
Doctor, my wife is WE'LL"
ooh. no, you mean she is better"
l replied. But the enthusiastic hus-
band insisted that his wife was well
and the heartiest eater at the table,"
The fact was that, while she had
| made astonishing improvement she
was obliged to continue the use of
Pe-ru-na many months. In less than
year she was entirely well, and has
remained so since, and her treatment
4 from the beginning to the end was
| Pe-ru-na and nothing else. To have
| seen her at the time of the first visit
/ it would have been impossible to be-
/ lieve that any medicine or other
/ earthly power could have saved her.
This case is no more unusual or
/ astonishing than a great many others
that my list contains, not only of dis
eases of the lungs, but Of all mucous
surfaces.
Cases of dyspepsia, diarrhea and
dysentery which have withstood all
other treatment, have yielded at once
by the use of Pe-ru-na.
Numerous cases of Bright's disease
OF the kidneys. acute catarrh and
rheumatism, female diseases, that had
been treated locally for years, were
instantly relieved and finally recov-
cred by Pe-ru-na. In short, every
disease affecting any mucous mem

gone beyond ali earthly help, fire.
quently makes astonishing recovery.
AS a general tonic and appetizer
Pe-ru-na has no superior. 1t is a GER
tain remedy for WORKOUT or tired-out
human nature. Cases OF nervous
prostration, loss of vitality and sleep
lessness are all treated by Pe-ru-na
with such undertaking success that
1 wherever il is used it ranks as the
! greatest tonic known.
In future articles l will recite other
cases of similar interest. In doing
so shall not allow the slightest
/ exaggeration or fiction to mar the
: realism which the simple. facts alone
give to any narrative of this kind.

last week and did little threshing.
Swan Hanson's rye made 20 bushels
per acre. Herman Hanson threshed
out 500 bushels of oats which run So
bushels per acre machine measure and
overrun in weight to Is bu. per acre.
Other farmers have threshed little
feed but threshing in general has not
begun yet. The recent rains have put
the soil in excellent condition for plow-
ing and supplied the late flax and the
corn with plenty of moisture to bring
it to maturity. Weeds and wilt has in
jured much of the flax on old ground
and the average yield will not be as
large as it should have been. AS usual,
the potato crop and garden crop is ex-
cellent.

Began Work EARLY

A certain lady from nearby state
started in early this spring as ex-
perience has taught her to plant a
garden in Ryder. Neighbors said, ooh!
but you must not plant things SO early
up here" The good lady was sorely
perplexed, for she was new here, but
she decided to go ahead. Then she
planted some things and was told "Oh!
but you can't grow those here" The
lady hesitated, but continued to
plant. The net result was she had the
finest garden in town, had new potatoes
and beans long before anyone else and
has cabbages-cabbages!-right now
ready for the table. An expert at
gardens from a famed garden-growing
state, she says she never had better
success than right here in ryder,
largely due topromptness when prompt
ness was material.
1t may be the Journal is crank on
early spring work on farm and garden,
but at tender age when most sus-
ceptible to learning we had driven home
the truth that "the early bird gets the
worn," and in after years have never
had occasion to doubt its wisdom-it
seems to apply to men and affairs in
every field of human endeavor. Ryder
