Peruna is a remedy that should be kept
in the house. Its virtue as preventive
to disease is the thing / wish chiefly 10
emphasize.
A slight condition of constipation may
lead to serious sluggshness Of the bowels,
re-absorption of poisonous ma
terial and finally sickness. Or apathy Of
the stomach in which the food is not rel
ished, may gradually lead to atomic dyspep-
STA or to the acquisition OF some acute die
ease. For either one of these conditions
few doses Of the tonic laxative Peruna
would set matters right. This is why ths
remedy should always be kept handy by.
When once the value of Peruna as q
household remedy is understood no home
would be without it. Cathartics, pills and
powders would be discarded. Irritating
tonics would be no longer taken. Aico-
holic drinks would have no place. With
few doses OF peruna vigorous appetite 10

one RISK WITH
TEAM TOO many
CHARLES PETERsoM,s QUIET
TEAM TAKES a RUN AND NEAR
LY KILLS ITS OWNER
SMASHED A PLATE GLASS WIN
DOW.

AS he had done for months and
years, Charles Peterson, the market
gardener, arrived in town this morn
ing AMI made a stop at the store Of
Solberg 81 Nelson with his team and
Wagon-and according to custom, he
left them united. A habit of the team
after standing for awhile was to turn
and cross the street and wait for fur
ther orders. This morning, however,
something frightened the horses and
away they bolted, but made a quick
turn for the front Of the store they
had left. In the rush the horses got
onto the sidewalk, the pole of the
wagon striking one of the plate glass
windows and smashing it into a thous-
and pieces. The pole glanced from
the window and nearly struck Mr..
Peterson square in the head. as it was,
it knocked his cap off. The dent made
in the door frame by the pole is Ievi-
dence that if Mr.. Peterson had receiv-
ed it instant death would have almost
been certain.
The frightened team took another run
and stopped near the Norby & Hide
store where the animals fell and one
was badly stunned by a collision with
an iron electric light pole. Later the
horses recovered from their fright and
were led to DR.. Fulton's veterinary
hospital, 1t is thought that one horse
was injured internally. The vehicle
was badly smashed up. 1t may be con
sidered fortunate that there was no
serious personal damage done.
