Straight and Upright Carriage Means
You Are Determined, Energetic
and Reliable.

If your back is straight and upright
you are correspondingly straight in
your conduct. You will hold your head
up, for you are not afraid to look the
world in the face.
Even when you're sitting you keep
your back straight. There is an air of
real strength about you-both physical
and mental. In short, you have plenty
of backbone. You are determined, en-
ergetic and to be relied upon.
If your back is STOPPING and round
ed you are a creature as weak as you
look, you are prone to lolling about
and too lazy or too feeble to take a
front rank in the battle OF life. The
tramp is an excellent example

COLD I'M
The Head
Is the First Chapter In the History
OF Chronic Disease.

A cold in the head is the first chan
ter in the history of disease and death.
Thls has been so often repeated that
there are few people indeed who have
not witnessed many examples Of 1t.
A cold In the head is rarely severe
enough to confine vigorous person
10 the house. AS rule, it ends in
recovery without any treatment This
has led many people to regard a cold
In the head as of no Importance. It ia
terrible mistake, however, to pass
by cold in the head as a trivial mat
ter Every case should be treated.
Those who have used Peruna for
such cases will testify unanimously
that a few doses is sufficient to re-
move every vestige of the cold How
much better it is to treat cold In this
way than it Is to allow it to go on and
on for weeks. perhaps months, leaving
effects that will never be eradicated.
Yet there are those who neglect to
take Peruna for cold in the head.
This neglect Is due to the false notion
that cold in the head is hardly worth
noticing.
A cold in the head Is in reality
case OF acute catarrh. 1t ought to be
called so. in order to awaken people
from their lethargy on this subject. In
large per cent. of cases cold In the
head will end in chronic catarrh. I'm
less properly treated with some such
remedy as Peruna, perhaps so per
cent. Of cases of cold In the head will
lay the foundation for chronic catarrh.
A tablespoonful of Peruna should be
taken at the very first symptom of
cold in the head. Usually where the
cold is not very severe a tablespoonful
of Peruna before each meal and at bed
time is sufficient. 1t may be neces-
sary, however, where the attack is
more serious, to keep strictly in the
house and take a tablespoonful OF
Peruna every hour. Younger people.
feeble or delicate women, should take
a teaspoonful every hour.
