A LITTLE NONSENSE
NOV AND THEN
Still Het Up.

AprOpOs of the recent resolution
OF the Bible students convention in
Washington repudiating the doc
trine of a literal hell fire." relates
the St Louis Globe-DemOcrat, DR.
Phillip Hale Curtin. OF Wheeling,
said to a reporter:
Hell fire is rarely mentioned any
lore except in jest except, for en-
ample. as in the body-snatching
story.
"A doctor, according to the story.
saw. late one night. a fine automo-
bile halted outside a cemetery. lie
hid behind a tree, for he suspected
that body -snatchers were at work;
and sure enough. in few minutes
he saw two body-snatchers stagger
from the cemetery carrying a body.
They placed il upright in the auto
mobile, as though it We're alive,
cropping it securely in the back
seat and then they hurried back to
the cemetery to fiji the violated
grave again.
THE doctor in their absence lift
ed the body out of the automobile,
hid it under a hedge, and took it's
place himself.
"Soon the scoundrels returned.
One seated himself at the wheel, and
the other seated himself in the back
seat, beside the body, SO as to sup
port it. Then, in the darkness, they
slided off.
After while the man in the
rear seat said in a rather awed tone:
This body seems mighty warm
for a corpse
"The chauffeur reached back his
hand and touched it.
Don't it, though" he muttered
between perplexity and fear.
Then the corpse. in deep. sepul-
chral tones exclaimed:
Warm? OF course Pm warm, ,
hnd if you had been where I've been
for the last two days, you'd be
warm, too.'
with loud yells of horror the
body-snatchers leaped from the an-
tomobile and fled. The doctor
seized the wheel and drove it home.
He has the car, they say. still"

I have been practicing medicine since
1855. Most OF that time l have beer
using Pe-ru-na as my principal remedy
So many unexpected recoveries have been
made BY those for whom l have pre-.
scribed Pe-ru-na that it would take q
large book to contain them all. They
keep coming up to my mind one by one
Whether on my farm, or at home, whether
playing with my grandchildren or con-
Quoting my large office business. these
incidents Of old-time Pe-ru-na cures steal
in upon my memory unawares.
Take, for instance, single case from
the extensive list OF similar cases in my
diary of cases treated, as an example Of
the cures that Pe-ru-na used to make.
Mrs. T. S. Eberlein then of Pittsburg.
Pa, afterwards of Keokuk, Iowa.. during
the year 1882 began to develop usual
symptoms of catarrh Of the lungs. Cough
was one of the first symptoms, which
gradually grew worse in spite Of all treat
ment. The sputa, at first slight, became
abundant and purulent, occasionally
streaked with blood. A rapid loss Of flesh
and tagging appetite filled her relatives
with forebodings. The hectic flush, night
sweats. and suppression Of the menses
left no doubt as to the nature Of her dis
ease.
From the first physicians had been en-.
ployed. Cough medicines. TONES, cod
liver oil and stimulants were resorted to
by her physicians without avail.
The first physician employed was DR..
Williams, Penn Ave., Pittsburg; DR.. Gill;
ford IF AlleUhenv itv v,aa next called
and then Dr. Riggs, Of Pittsburg.
During this history Of conflict with this
terrible disease frequent consultations
