TAKE PERUNA FOR
COUGHS AND COLDS

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 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 q cough
is a slightly different one. Even in those
cases Peruna ought to be taken, hut 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 commence taking it.
You can get rid of that cough sooner
believe than in any other way.
Should you wish to consult me at any
time while you are taking Per7na you are
at perfect liberty to write me- Your let
tiers will be held strictly confidential and
you will receive prompt answer.
I want to stop that cough of yours.
I want to stop it before it really begins.
l want to stop it before it has a chance
to injure your lungs. an injury that you
may not recover from during your whole
life. Yes, do. You do your part. I
will do mine. No. 81.

Unpicked Grapes Co to the Poor.

A curious old law. which dates from

owner of vineyard at Capestang,

was picking the grapes which had been
left on the vines in her vineyard after
the fall gathering, when the policeman
told her that she was committing an
offense against the law, as all grapes
left on the vines after the harvest
were the property of the poor. The
