So her doctor said. Her
friends and neighbors felt
sure of it too. They have
used Peruna themselves
and know of its merits.
That old cough that had
worried her for years and
years, for which she had
taken all sorts of cough
medicines, has disappeared.
Peruna is doing the work.
She will recover. Indeed,
she has recovered.
Her name is Mrs. William
Holman, 2764 Lincoln Ave,
Chicago, Ills. She had suffered
with catarrh of the bronchial
tubes and had terrible cough
ever since a child. AS she got
older she grew worse. She
coughed both winter and sum-
mer. Had to sit up at night.
Could not sleep. But all that
has left me now. Peruna has
cured me-"

is a reason.

To a Friend.

II nothing else in all the world
Remained. but just a slimpse of
you.
I'd still believe the world was good
And life was worth the living too
II ev'ry friend had proven false
But you. Id still have faith to
That God could raise up other
To stand by me in veal or woe.
II over all the world = cloud
Had settled. deeper than the night
And l should see your smile, ia
know
Somewhere, sometime, there would
be light.
II ev'ry bird that ever sang
Had lost the note II sang befora
One word of yours would make me
That music would peal forth once
more.
II ev'ry lovely flower that grew
Had perished in this world of pain.
I'd trust the Power that made YOU
dear,
To bring back loveliness again.
II no one else believed in God.
And no one else believed in me
Your Joy In life. your faith, your
love
Would make me feel eternity.

? AVE you ever noticed how
lusterless the hair becomes
during hot weather? This is
particularly true II YOU have
golden, Titan, or light brown

In summer.
The majority OF hair specialists
agree that strong light draws the
nourishing oils from the roots of the
hair, which finally results in great
loss Of air.
If you neglect to wear hat or car
ry a sunshade your hair will change
color not evenly, but In streaks.

become rusty. and lisht brown locks

light will be even worse.
II, however. you have an abund-
ance of natural oil in your scalp 1t
will not be necessary TO employ
much artificial aid. Watch the hair
closely, and upon the first apear-

portions are teaspoonful Of gly-
