Our First Clue.

Louise and | sat at dinner together.
Isn't 1t strange in this world Of
ours how the commonplace follows on
the terrible, how the usual and the I'M
usual intermingle, how the clock ticks
on when the whole universe seems to
be tumbling about our heads. In one
of the rooms upstairs lay Katharine,
still unconscious, with a doctor and a
nurse constantly at her side. The bull
let had been removed. and while it
had penetrated the brain some slight
distance, Doctor Wilcox said there was

be hours, he explained, before she re-
gained consciousness she ever did.
In another OF the rooms lay General
Parrish, more dead than alive. Paraly-
sis had deadened his limbs and tied
his tongue. Only his eyes seemed
alert. Most of the time since che
| stroke had felled him he had been
s%lumbering heavily.
While the hustle of caring for tae
two stricken ones lasted there was

eating, each trying to encourage the
other. but the unforgetable events OF
the afternoon, the missing faces at the
table and the sorrow that filled us both
made food impossible. Drawing oul

to do great injury. After the expectora-
ton has been properly removed the cough
will stop itself. That is the only proper
way to stop a cough.
Occasionally a cough depends upon an
irritable condition of the larynx or bron-
chial tubes, in which there is little or no
eXpectoration.
The problem Of stopping such a cough
is a slightly different one. Even in those
cases Peruna ought to be taken, but some
times it is Necessary that local treatment
be added.
But in any case Peruna is needed. You
do not have to stop to write me. Get
Peruna at once and taking it.
You can get rid of that cough sooner l
believe than in any other way.
Should you wish to consult me at any
time while you are taking Peluna you are
at perfect liberty to write me. Your let
ters will be held strictly confidential and
YOU will receive prompt answer.

theory would account for the quarrel
