The spirit of our child has fled,
His body numbered with the dead
And resting in the silent grave,
How sad the thought that he must

Yet we believe him happier now,
Then when by sickness racked in pain.
To Him who gave and took we bow,
Hoping to meet our child again.

Alcohol I'm Pe-ru-na-
An Unjust Criticism

She says that if she were to be sick in
the same way again she would GER
tainly get Peruna and take it, alcohol
or no alcohol. SO you see if people will
persist in such foolishness there ought
to be a law to prevent them"
l ventured to interpose a question.
"You say the doctors could not cure
her, and yet you say Peruna did cure
her What difference does it make to
you whether it was alcohol or some
other drug that effected the cure?"
well, 1 don't know that it makes any
difference, but it is deceiving the people
to give them alcohol even though it
does cure Them he said
l replied. "Why, 1 cannot ex-
actly un ders tand that. Alcohol
is a drug, the same as qui-
nine or morphin. If alcohol cures
certain diseases where is the deception?
understand that the Peruna people
print on the label of each bottle the
per cent. of alcohol contained in Peru
ma. Each patient may read it, if he
pleases. I cannot see where there is
any deception"

Eyes, I suppose So"
Five per cent would be one-twen.,
tieth. AS each pint contains sixteen1
ounces you were then taking little lelS
than an ounce of alcohol before each
meal"
yes"
But you objected to your mothers'
taking alcohol in the Peruna, and yet
she was taking far less alcohol than you
were. AS / understand it, the dose of
Peruna is one tablespoonful. Surprising
it to be twenty per cent alcohol, there
would be in each dose one-ffth of a
tablespoonful of alcohol which would
be about half n teaspoonful, while you
were taking at least four teaspoonfus
of alcohol in your bottle of beer. And
yet you objected to your mothers TAX
ing Pcruna on the ground that the Pc
runa contains alcohol. In my opinion
it was the alcohol that cured both of
you. Your mother evidently was cured
of a very serious ailment Peruna con-
tains alcohol. 1t was undoubtedly the
alcohol that cured her, or at least
helped to. The other ingredients of
Peruna might have assisted, no doubt
did. In your case it was the alcohol in
the beer that cured you of the stom-
ach difficulty. peruna has cured
thousands of such cases"
'Well ] declare" he replied, 81 never
thought of it in that way before.
There has been so much said about al
cohol being poisonous that I suppose
my mind has been prejudiced against
it. But if as you say there is also
alcohol in beer the same kind of alco-
hol as is used in Peruna. I cannot see
where the difference is myself"
well" I replied, "you have been
doing exactly what the average man
and woman is doing. You have al
lowed your mind to become prejudiced
against Peruna. on account of it's con-
| tanning alcohol Without stopping to
look into the matter at all you have
assumed that there is something terri
bly, disreputable about remedies con-
tanning alcohol. The fact is, however
that most all fluid medicines. whether
| prescribed by n doctor or put up as q
! patent medicine, contain a certain
amount of alcohol. 1t was alcohol that
cured your mother. 1t was alcohol that
cured you. In my opinion, alcohol in
some form or other is making more
cures than all other drugs combined.
This is not saying, however, that Pc
runa contains only alcohol, for it does
contain excellent remedies besides al
cohol. But 1 do contend that the alco-
hol in Peruna is not only not harmful to
those who take it, but if taken in the
doses prescribed on the bottle it will do
great deal of good and there is not
the slightest danger of forming a
drug habit" PERUNA IS FOR SALE
