afforded next season. Vice President
Robert Stevenson. Ir.. has announced
that the scenic course of the Winnetka
Country club. lying midway between

to the list of popular links bordering

recommended that an invitation tour

clares he could not walk more than

Few people understand that catarrh
is a constant drain on the system
The discharge of mucus which is
going on in such cases Is largely COM
posed of blood serum, and is q great
waste. Sooner or later 1t will weaken
the strongest man.
According to reports received from
Mr. Johnson, he was in a desperate
condition, but he found relief from
his trouble. We will let him say how
he found it. His own words say:
my friends told me to take Pc
runa, and I did so. I now feel that
Peruna has saved my life. 1t is the
best medicine on earth. and I would
not be without it."
This seems almost too good to be
true. No doubt there are some read
ers that will think SO. The above
statements. however. can be verified
by writing Mr.. Johnson.

The directors Of the club say that Nc
Farland should be willing to box on
percentage basis.
This will probably be McFarland's
last important battle before he retires
from the game. For this reason men
who are In touch with Mcfarland say
that Is why the match with Gibbons is
worth $4,000. Quite number Of wise
ones profess the belief that Mcfarland
will meet defeat for the first time In
his twelve years in the ring, and be-
cause Of this he is anxious to obtain
"get away" stake proportiOnate with
the loss Of his prestige as boxer.
Gibbons Is so confident of decisive
victory that he is willing to meet the
