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

Some people have nasal catarrh
and know II. Not only the patient
knows II. but all OF his friends know
1t. Many people know 1t that are not
his friends. Just those people who
happen to meet him in the street car
or on the public square.
That sort Of a nasal catarrh need
not be described. Everybody knows
the symptoms without their disgust
ing recital
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
tarrh not so evident. One nostril is
stopped today. The other nostrii is
stopped tomorrow. Cannot breathe
freely through the nostrils. Easy to
sneeze. Mucus In the nose too thick.
Sometimes forms brownish Jumps.
Catch cold easily. Never quite free
OF cold. These symptoms describe
q case Of subacute nasal catarrh.
Many people have II. and some who
would not admit they have nasal ca
tarrh.
He knows he must blow his nose
freely. He remembers that he does
not breathe easily through the nose.
The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1914-04-10

He recalls the fact that he shores
some now. whereas he did not pre-
viously.
Subacute nasal catarrh! Or we
might call 1t incipient 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 Ellis OF Life" sent free by Pc
runa Co., Columbus. Ohio). Just
enough to clear out the nose. Take
a dose Of Peruna before breakfast.
Hold Il in the mouth. Let It trickle
down slowly and breathe the fumes
OF II out through the nose as you
swallow It,
This will stop an incipient case of
nasal catarrh in a few weeks. Stop
1t entirely. The nose becomes clear
again. The breath is sweet. The
breathing free. No more snoring. or
snuffiing. or smiling. 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 become one Of the benefited
ones as to allow 1t to go on any
further. -.

CAPABLE TRAINED NURSES.

Open Field For Afro American WON.
en- In Gainful Professional Service.
Among the many highly competent
trained nurses who are making their
mark as leaders in their profession h
Miss Mary r. Tucker. r. N. Of Phila-
delphia. As graduate nurse she has
had considerable experience along va
rious lines of nursing. She was super
intendent Of the nurses exhibit at the
emancipation exposition. held in Phil
adelphia last September.
Miss Tucker Is well informed In hos
pital and social service work. Her
knowledge Of the proper preparation
Of food for invalids and children has
given her recognition from high au-
thorities In the medical profession.
She also has the most recent records
showing the progress which the Afro
American graduate nurses have made.
Perhaps no other field offers greater
opportunity for professional service
and profitable financial uplift for the
young women of our race than that Of
trained nursing. They seem to have
natural gifts for the sickroom. and

race with which her husband was
identified. This tells how that mort
gage happened to be placed on the old
home Of the great leader.
BY act of congress a board Of trus
tees was created to have charge Of the
home, but It came to these congress
sionally provided administrators with
a mortgage and without funds to even
keep up repairs, the result being that
the once handsome home, the once fine
old estate, Is. rapidly passing to decay
and the mortgage Is pressing for pay
ment.
Several attempts have been made to
arouse sufficient interest on the part Of
the race to pay of this mortgage and
put the home in proper repair In order
first to save the home to the race and
to preserve the historical relics, ETC., It
contains. but not sufficient has been
contributed to even keep up the inter
est on the debt.
It Is figured that II $4,000 Is raised
by the race it will be sufficient to pay
of the mortgage and restore the build
Ing and estate to its former beauty
and make Of the home historical
and memorial site to be visited by
thousands each year, just as the old
home Of George Washington at Mount
Vernon is maintained as a historical
retreat.
There are fifteen acres in the Doug
lass estate, and It occupies the most
beautiful point in all Washington, over
looking the Potomac. as It does, and
being within ten minutes ride OF the
White House or the halls OF congress
But unless the race responds to the
last appeal, and responds quickly, the
old home may be lost
BY the terms Of the will Il can be
no other than memorial to Mr.. Doug
lass, free to the public, and conse-
quently has no earning power. When
II ceases to be that-in case the mort.
gage should be foreclosed-the old
Douglass homestead will pass from the
race.
