You Have Nasal Catarrh
Not Very Bad, But
It Bothers You a Good Deal.

He recalls the fact that he snores
some now, whereas he did not pre-
viously.
Subaeute nasal catarrh! Or we
might call it ncipient nasal catarrh.
Or, still better, nasal catarrh just be-
ginning and becoming chronic.
Now is the time to take Peruna.
A little Peruna will do wonders at
this stage of the disease. Snuff a lit
tie weak salt water every morning
(see Ills, of Life" sent free by Pc
runa Co, Columbus. Ohjo), just
enough to clear out the nose. Take
q dose of Peruna before breakfast.
Hold it in the mouth. Let it triclde
down slowly and breathe the fumes
of it out through the nose as you
swallow it,
This will step an incipient case Of
, nasal catarrh in a few weeks. Stop
| it entirely. The nose becomes clear
again. The breath is sweet. The
! breathing free. No more snoring, or
snuffiing. or snifiing. or catching
cold easily. All of these things are
| in the past.
! An army of men and women have
been benefited by Peruna. You might
! as well besome one of the benefited
ones as to allow it to go on any
| further.

Some people have nasal catarrh
and know it. Not only the patient
knows it, but all of his friends know
it. Many people know it that are not
his friends. Just those people who
happen to meet him in the street CIR
or on the public square.
That sort of nasal catarrh need
not be described. Everybody knows
the symptoms without their disgust

Peruna helps such cases every day.
Thousands have attested to this fact
unsolicited. Peruna benefits even the
worst cases of old nasal catarrh.
But there are cases of nasal ca

Both vessels had been sounding ST.
rens and warning bells. but the tricky
weather obscured the sound and the
fog hid the lights from the lookouts.
OFF Hog Island the lookout on the
Monroe heard the foghorn of anoth-
er vessel looming dangerously close
and Captain Johnson was notified.
The Monroe sounded her siren which
was kept at steady scream.
At the rail of the Nantucket the
passengers could see the Monroe with
her hull tossing in the water a few
yards away. The cries of fright COM
ing from the sinking ship intensified
the fears of the passengers on the
Nantucket at first. but after a time
the perseverance of the officers on
the latter ship had it's reward. The
fright began to die out and many of
teh shivering passengers retired to
their staterooms for warm clothing.
For fear that some other liner might
run down the already crippled ships
in the gloom, the captain of the Nam
tucket ordered her siren to be kept
in action and the incessant clamor
from the big horn echoed above the
cries and commands.

She is a daughter Of Mrs. Baldwin,
and Is we'll known In London, Paris,
Rome and Berlin society. Her advent
as hostess in perhaps the most beau
tiful residence in Lithuania is being
anticipated with great curiosity and
keen interest by the neighbors to the
famous estate.
The marriage Of the Prince and
Miss Deacon was the cause Of a dis
pute between him and his relatives.
The parents were finally pacified,
however. The couple were married
IN London, and the ceremony was the
social sensation of the season.
The date first set for the cere-
mony was June 20. 1910; but at the
last moment it was announced that
Il had been postponed. and the wait
ing guests we're. informed that the
Prince had neglected to procure the
necessary papers from Rome show

The match had been violently OPP
posed by the mother Of the Prince.

The horror of the situation was
intensified by the gloomy curtain
of fog through which the screams

tho Nantucket cruised about in the
neighborhood searching for other
survivors, but her own conditions
