This Medicine Recommended by Doctor

When doctor uses a medicine himself
besides prescribing it to his patients he
must know that it has merit.
This is what DIR. j. H. Wagner, a prom
inent physician of Skate Kentucky, has TO
say about Dr. Hartman's well-known rem
edy, PE-RU-NA: Il have used Pe-RU-NA
myself for catarrh and have given it to 9TH
ers for catarrh, bloating after eating and
other ailments. 1t has proved a success in
all cases with old and young men and wOm-
en-. All speak well of PE-RU-NA. 1t is the
best of all tonicS.."
DR.. Wagner, out of the fullness Of his own
personal experience, for the good of all sick
and suffering, recommends a medicine which
he knows TO be good You may be sure a
doctor would not endanger his professional
reputation by endorsing PE-RU-NA unless
satisfied beyond doubt of its value.
Whether your trouble be a cough or a
cold, or a more subtle catarrhal affection OF
the stomach, bowels other organs give
PE-RU-NA a trial. The immediate i'm

dow and door castings. baseboards.
picture molds. etr.. should be very sim.
pie and light in construction and de-
sign. The mantel I'm the living-room
might, be made of the same trim as
the windows with a nodded shelf and
brick facing and hearth. Painted
woodwork and tinted plaster walls
are not only attractive but very serv-
iceable
The stairs could either be stained or
painted, the staining being slightly
cheaper but not so effective from an
artistic point of view.
For the home builder who is willing
TO depart a little from the beaten path
in the design and placing OF his house.
this will be found a very practical
and inexpensive plan.
Mr.. Embury estimates the price OF
this house in Washington at 5000.
