CHRONIC CATARRH CURED
Two Cases Well Worth Reading

I Sherman, South Dakota. He had
been sufferer from catarrh for sew
sorts of catarrh remedies. He was
advised by a friend to try Peruna,
which he did. He commenced at
once to get better He is able to say
today that he is a well man. and he
never ceases to recommend Peruna
whenever he can get the chance.
Both of these men are reliable.
honest citizens, respected and useful
in the community where they live.
They did not try Peruna until after
they had tried other things. Like
most people, who find Peruna after
everything else has failed.
OF course you would save time by
simply buying your Peruna at once
and beginning to take it. Then in
the meantime you can write these
gentlemen: You will find that not
only the things you have read in this
article are true, but that they have a
great deal more to say in praise of
Peruna than we have quoted from
them.
An internal remedy for catarrh,
that is what Peruna is. Whether the
catarrh assumes the form of a COM
mon cold, or whether it proceeds to
the dangerous condition of catarrh,
of the lungs for all of the phases of
catarrh Peruna is the remedy. Bron-
chitis, Larnygitis. Pharyngitis, Gas
tritis, Cystitis. All these are forms of
catarrh. Peruna is the remedy.
The symptoms of catarrh of the
throat are: First, gagging in morn
ing; hawking stringy mucous. Sec
ond enlarged tonsils. Third, sore
throat at times. Fourth, snoring when
lying on the back. Fifth, elongated
uvula. Sixth liberated patches in
throat. Seventh, throat dry, necessi-
tating clearing throat often. Eighth.
coated tongue. Ninth, inside of throat
red. Tenth, inside of throat S1narts
and tickles-Adv.

Backache, urinary disorders, and

permanently and positively cure such
troubles is to remove the cause.

the time his catarrh remained
Ringing in the ears. Muddling OF
the senses. Dropping in the throat
This remained with him year after
year
He began taking Peruna, without
using any local treatment. Just TAX
ing the Peruna, according to the di-
rections on the bottle.
1t may seem strange to some that
a bad case of chronic catarrh can be
cured without any local treatment.
But the fact remains, nevertheless.
The explanation is that catarrh is not
a local disease, but a systemic dis
ease. TIE be sure, it finds local ex-
preston. That is to say. it settles
somewhere. Quite frequently in the
nose and throat. But it is a systemic
disease and requires systemic treat
ment. Something to take. Something
that will operate on the whole sys-
tenn. Nothing short of this will cure
catarrh. A great many have found
this out.
One of the people who have found
it out is Mr.. Nye. He had had a long
campaign of treating his catarrh by
the usual method of treatment, but
until he took Peruna his catarrh kept
recurring. Now he is we'll. Peruna
did the work.
His testimony is the same as many
others who have had similar expert
ences. Som etimes it helps a little

salt water and to suff weak salt
water into the nose. Such things
help a little sometimes, but if a cure
is every to be really accomplished it
will be by taking Peruna according to
the directions on the bottle. Take it
right along regularly, faithfully, until
the catarrh disappears.
Mr.. Nye is very enthusiastic about
Perunua. He stands ready to answer
any inquirer who is seeking a remedy
for catarrh.

Other Items of Interest IN the

The Webb bill to enable states to

the Railway Age Gazette 1t makes

that railway tariffs and classifications

Many railways have already abol-
ished the sale o. liquor in their dining
cars, partly out of respect for prohibit
ton sentiment, and partly because of
the difficulty of complying with pro-
hibition laws on the fly. The
Illinois roads stopped the sale on
trains entirely last year after a law
had been passed which left a few loop
holes open. 1t is understood that they
had something to do with bringing
about the passage of the law as a
means of securing better order on some

NEW PLAN TO PREVENT WRECKS
Grand Trunk Has Device for Locking
Body of Cars to Trucks.

The Grand Trunk railway has
adopted a device for locking the body
of cars to trucks. The object of this
device is to prevent telescoping of cars
in wrecks or collisions. 1t consists of
two steel keys. Hanged at top and bot
tom. which pass through the center
of the body and the truck holsters. By
locking the body of the car to the
trucks the additional weight alone, ac-
cording to designing engineers, will
prevent the body from rising when the
impact takes place.
1t is claimed also that the attach

cars from rolling off the tracks and

terfere in any way with the present
free and flexible movement of the
trucks, provision having been made to
obtain sufficient clearance. The at
tachment is being applied to all new
cars recently ordered by the company.

been called for next March, and Judge
Cheney says that great deal OF bust
ness will come before the court at

hopeful of success.
