Constipation and Catarrh

ieve me? Well, whether you would be-
lieva me or not It is the truth.
For many years | have been wrest-
ling with the problem Of furnishing
the public an internal catarrh remedy.
Peruna has been the remedy that I
have devised and It has certainly re-
lieved many thousand people, yes hum
dreds Of thousands Of people, of chronic
catarrh.
Constipation was my chief difficulty
in treating these cases. l often felt
that it would b. better If a laxative
element were added to Peruna. / feared
TO do so, however, first because Of
the number of catarrhal patients who
needed nc laxative, and second ! was
afraid Of making such a radical change
in a remedy that was already doing
so well. Thus it was that | continued
to prescribe with the Peruna a bottle
of Manalin to those who needed a lax
alive. At last, under circumstances
explained in my booklet, / was con-
strained to add the laxative element to
Peruna. This constitutes what Is now
known as the revised Peruna.
Now those who take Peruna will,
first, find themselves promptly relieved
Of their constipation. Second, the
catarrh will gradually disappear. And
once the catarrh is cured the consti-
patton leaves permanently. Then II
you follow the advice given in my
book, you will never have to take pills
any more. Cathartics and laxatives
you can ignore. You viii be perma-
nently relieved of both your catarrh
and the constipation. PERUNA is

road. In passing through the
desert the motorist, it has been
found, faces danger and death
at every turn if he has not
equipped his ear with an ade-
auatc warning signal. There
have been 50 many accidents due
to the inefficiency Of the bulb
horn that tho various motoring
j. FORMATIONS have seen to it
that their members are warned OF
the danger G., using anyth,ng but
"a high power electric horn.
There + many points where it
is impossible for two ears to pass
and sharp turns are frequent in
Just such sections.
Mr.. O. K. Parker, Engineer of
the Automobile Club of Southern
California, said regarding this
matter: II have travelled over
10000 miles over these desert
roads AMI through the canyons
of the mountains of California
and | would like to warn all mo-
torlsts against placing any de-
pendence upon the bulb horn.
It is useless in either city OF
country. but a man takes his life
n his hands who depends upon
it in any way in this country
about which we have been speak
ing"
1t will take the better part OF
a year to accomplish the task OF
, signing the desert, but the work
IS to be prosecuted vigorously
and is part of the whole system
Of effort to make motoring il
California as pleasant and fret

After many months of planning
and preparation, the Automobile
Club Of Southern CALIFORNIA, in
conjunction with the State au-
thorities, has begun the work of
making clearly defined pathways
through such sections of the des-
ert lands Of the state as motor
lists are likely to traverse. This
will consist of 50 placing ade-
quate signs every five miles that
the automobiles will at adj times
know just where and how to
travel.
At present. there are 2,870
miles Of desert roads in the
Counties of Kern, Inyo, San
Bernardino, Riverside, Imperial,
San Diego and Los Angeles. The
deserts which these roads ira
verse are the Majave, Death
Vallev. Chucl5awalla and Imper-
ial. The latter should not be
confoundod with the fertile and
prosperous Imperial Valley.
Heretofore, in all these sec
tons of desert country there
have only been some fifty signs
for motorists, these principally
in San Berpardino County. Few
of these signs are of amy value
10 the motorist today, for the
somewhat unusual reason that
they have been used as targets
by various persons passing, and
have been so shot up as to be
almost undecipherable.
The purpose of the new signs
is not only TO direct the motorist
along the right road but to tell
him where he can find nearby
springs and water holes, direct
ions as to locating these being
explicit.
Theee sign. will be IS inches
square, of No. 16 gauge galvan.
ized annelled steel, set cross
wise on 2i2 inch rounded stee.
galvanized hollow posts. Eacl
post will be anchored with q
cross of the same material as the
pole itself.
The desert, contrary to what
many persons suppose, is by NJ
means a level country. There
are many miles Of lava butte:
and granite mountains, the ways
among which are devious and al
most impossible to thread if onC
is not informed as to the RICH.

FEW WITHOUT STAGE FRIGHT
Specialist in Nervous Diseases Gives
Scientific Analysis OF Much
Dreaded Infiiction.

Among nervous diseases may be in
cluded stage fright A physician, who
is a specialist in the former, has Just
been lecturing about the latter He
describes some acute forms of what
French actors call ''trac," one OF the
worst forms of which produce a de-
Walton of the mouth which it Is i'm
possible to overcome"
The sufferers talk out one side OF
their mouths, and all their efforts to
rid themselves of this nervous afec-
ton are fruitless." Their only remedy,
one imagines, is to give up acting. The
lecturer quoted also gives "twitching
of the eye and feverish palsy Of the
hands" as being among the results OF
stage fright
At the dress rehearsal of play by
Sardou an actress violently scratched
the hands of the actor with whom she
was playing. saying, How nervous |
feel"
She must have got over her nervous
ness since then, for the actress was
Mile. Blanche Dufresne, who for many
years has acted with Nine. Sarah
Bernhard.
Two tenors are cited who have
splendid voices at rehearsals. but
could not get note out on first nights
an unfortunate predicament for
singers-and had to leave the stage.
Even the famous Got knew the 'trac. "
The lecturer remembered his having
had a total lapse Of memory during the
whole OF an act OF a new play at the
Theatre Francois. But, while he could
not recollect single word OF the dia-
logue, and took every word he spoke
from the prompter, who gave him the
text, he could I'LL in an attitude and

But the worst case on record Of stage

FOR SAFETY TO THE DRIVER
Mirrors Installed on Streets Of English
Towns Have Proved of Material
Benefit.

Mirrors at street corners to provide
for the drivers of vehicles a view of
the cross streets have been installed
IN at least two towns in England. In
Folkestone there is an acute angle
street crossing where one corner is
built up close to the curb. On this
corner IL placed a 24x24 inch mirror
supported on gas pipe standards at
such an angle that drivers of vehicles
coming toward the built-up corner
from either of the two opposite streets
can see up the streets at right an
giles to their path.
The engineer in charge states that
owing to the impossibility of motor
lists seeing any on-coming traffic sew
eral accidents and narrow escapes
have occurred at that point. Since
the mirror has been fixed he has not
heard Of anything approaching an &C
cident The damp, mist, rain or frost
have no i'll effect on the mirror,
which is occasionally cleaned by a
passing lamplighter when cleaning his
lamps.
At Malmesburg, in Wiltshire, a mir
Tor five by eight feet in size, SUPPORT
ed on standards so that it's top is Is
feet above the street, occupies an an
gular position at the apex OF closed
right-angle curve. The engineer In
charge says: THE mirror requires
scarcely any cleaning; only a wipe
over once in about three months. -
