Assistant County Attorney John M.

dered the arrest of women occupying
places known to be of disorderly char-

sent to the district and numerous ar-
rests are expected to be made. As-
sistant County Attorney Martin de-
clared the leniency shown underworld
women by jurors is largely responsible
for the alleged increase of vice in

PE-RU-NA
THE REMEDY FOR EVERYDAY ILLS
“I have used Pe-ru-na for
years in cases of colds and
catarrh. The results have been
good, in fact, more than you
claimed. Have also taken
Lacupia and can easily say it
is one of the best blood puri-
fiers I have ever used.” nW
Mr. J. F. Arendt
For Catarrh, and Catarrhal Conditions
The evidence of one man like Mr. Arendt to more convincing ergot
to you of the merits of Pe-ru-na than any written words of ours. For
fifty years Pe-ru-na has been the standby of the American family for
diseases due to catarrhal inflammation of the mucous membranes lining
the organs of the body. Thousands, like Mr. Arendt, have proved the
effectiveness of Pe-ru-na for coughs, colds, nasal catarrh, stomach, bowel
and livendisorders or any disease characterized by a catarrhal condition.
if your suffering is the result of a catarrhal disorder try Pe re as. It
is a true, tried medicine.
