Grip Patients Grateful to Psruna. ths
Expsctorant Tonic
Do not make the error Of regarding
grip as an exaggerated cold. There
Is q big difference between the two.
Grip is an epidemic disease that pol
sons the vital organs. When per-
son has grip. the air passages are
alive with millions Of baciili poison
ing the blood. The infected person
feels tired and exhausted.
Peruna 10 a Tonic Laxative,
1t requires a good tonic laxative to
keep the body Of the patient as strong
as possible to counteract the effect Of
the poisons created by the grip bacIl-
lus. An expectorant tonic with some
laxative qualities is the safest rem
edy. Such is Peruna. Beware es-
pecially Of coal tar powders or tablets
because they lessen the vitality of the
patient.
There is no specific for the grip.
Peruna has been used with good
success in former grip epidemics. In
dications point to the return of grip
this winter.
Do not fail to read the experience
OF former grip Patients with Peruna.

MAKE THEIR OWN LIGHT

Among the most remarkable OF all natures

of many of our common plants and animals, OBJ

Under certain conditions nasturtiums. sun1ow-
ers, dahlias tuberoses and yellow lilies may be
seen to glow with soft radiance varying in
color and intensity. Only those flowers that have
an abundance of yellow orange shades exhibit
this phosphorescence. The best time to see the
light is after dark but often intermittent and
flashing.
Often in the early fall the ground will be IL

Australian poppy is the most remarkable Of all
the luminous plants. for it has been found to
