Sometimes the first bottle gives relief
Other times number of bottles must
be taken. This is the story that has
come to us from every state In the
Union, and from many OF the English
speaking countries scattered through
the world.
If It Is not true that PerJrna really
does relieve catarrh of the head, throat
lungs, stomach, bowels and other org
ans then why do the thousands of tes-
tiiers state That they have been bene-
fitted? No one is in a better position
TO know than they who have used it in
their sickness.
We appreciate their loyalty to their
convictions. We also appreciate the
gratitude which induces them to allow
their names and pictures TO be used
for the benefit of the public.
The exact truth Is all we want That
is all we publish. We could not pos
sibIy be induced to publish anything
else.
Peruna is a great remedy, we be-
Heve. A standard household remedy.
There are thousands, yes hundreds OF
thousands, of homes where it is In

st. Petersburg, Oct. 25.-Three st.
Petersburg women who arrived here
Thursday night after having completed
6,00O-mile drive in a Ford automo-

the west and then to ST. Peters burg,

a Ford touring car to drive around
the country, which drive eventually
eliminated in their rambling all over
the country. Leaving Salem, Col, and
from there commenced to drive over
this state which is SO famous for its
scenic beauty.

passing through Colorado Springs and
spent a day on Pixies Peak. The three
ladies wished to try mountain climbing
and gained some experience in climbing
seven Of the nine miles to the summit
of the gigantic rock. From Pixies
Peak they went to Sanda, passing
through Pueblo and Cannon City,
which is at the eastern end of Mon
arch pass, the highest pass over the
great continental divide. Automobile
men and garage men, upon learning
that these three ladies were planning
to cross the divide, seriously advised
them to try another pass and urged

$Oat meal IS one OF the cheapest and

In the United States the manu-
facture and consumption Of oat meal
have greatly increased in recent
years. Most of the oat meal now man

rolled oats"
Thorough cooking not only makes
oats more palatable, but greatly in
creases its digestibility. The Iowa az

that the average price per pound O.,

less than that Of seven unlocked

Sandy land with plenty of plant food
and moderately stir subsoil will

clays are too wet and cold for the
best growth Of the crop. More water
Is required to produce a pound of dry
