WOMEN OF AMERICA
Greatly Benefited by the War

So many of the aches and pains
of the female sex can be traced d.
rectly to catarrh and catarrhal con-
ditions, that thousands of women
have found Peruna just what they
needed.
Peruna is for catarrh and catar-
rhal conditions in any organ or any
part of the body. Whether 1t be
catarrh of the stomach, bowels, or
other organs, Peruna is just as eff
feefiVe as for eatarrh of the head
and throat.
1t is by encouraging a rich, pure
blood supply to all parts of the body
that Peruna allays the Inflammation
and congestion, and produces health
in the mucous Innings everywhere.
This remedy which for forty-five
years has been the standard treat
ment for catarrh in all it's forms,
regulates the digestive organs and
helps eliminate the wastes and pol
sons resulting from catarrhal con-
ditions. This foetid matter may fire.

and then do irreparable harm.
The experience of Mrs. Albert
Huet OF 264 IIaekmatack St, South
Manchester. Conn, is an indication
of the great good which Peruna Is
accomplishing for the sex. She
writes Il had catarrh Of the stom-
aeh, bowels and liver. l sought

Careful tests by Mr.. crandall indi-

or beyond and flowing PIT depth of
several hundred feet underneath the
whole length Of the north side tract.
Declaring that the flow Of these
springs even as far back as 1902, long
before the building of the North Side
canals, with the possible seepage from
them, was twice to three times the vol

TO ALL INTERESTED IN THE

The Legislature OF Mississippi a
few years ago abolished the pre-
paratory departments in the State
colleges, expecting the common
schools of the state to do the work
of preparing pupils for entrance into
the colleges. Otherwise, two sys-
TENS of schools in the state-the
public schools and the so-called coll
leges-would be covering the same
ground of study. at a great expense
to taxpayers; with unsatisfactory re-
suits to all; and with the certain
doom to the sO-called colleges of be-
ing themselves ranked as not coll
leges, by the educational world out
side of Mississippi.
The immediate general result of
this differentiation of common school
and of college work-this separation
of the two fields OF study-is to
make impossible the entrance into
the state colleges of pupils from the
common schools unless these schools
satisfactorily bridge the space be-

is, between the two systems of
schools, a four-year gap that must
at once be filled by the public schools
