JUDGE OF THESlti-’REME CoiJk i
Suffered Four Months From the After-Effects
of the Grip--Relieved By Pe-ru-na.
The grip more than any other dis-
ease in the world leaves the system in
a run-down, nervous, bloodless con-
dition.
Feruna has become famous in re-
lieving the deplorable condition which
the grip produces
Catarrh Victims Susceptible.
People who have had catarrh of the
head, throat, nose or lungs are much
more liable to catch the grip than other
people.
The reason for this is that the mucous
membranes of tim head, nose, throat or
lungs aro Injured by the catarrh* and
tho germs which cause the grip llnd
easy entrance into tho system.
It Is a well established fact that per-
fectly sound mucous membranes consti-
tute a barrier to tho entrance of disease
germs.
The best precaution any one can have
against the grip is to bo perfectly free
from catarrh. *
Peruna a Preventive.
As a preventive of grip, Peruna has
done a great deal of good In tho world
by its beneficial effect, upon the mucous
membranes.
Catarrh has another untoward In-
fluence to be noticed In connection with
tho grip.
Victims of catarrh who have had the
grip find themselves after the acute
r.tages have passed, in very weakened
and deplorable conditions.
After-Effects of Grip.
The whole nervous system la im-
natred r the digestive orefins deranged;
the circulation of the blood feeble and
irregular. All th^se sj^mptoms are pro-
duced, more or Ijss, by the grip, and
especially in peojdo who havo had ca-
tarrh previous to tho grip.

W. 11. Parsons is Ex-Stale benator and Ex-Special Judge of the Supreme >
Court of Texas, and was also Brigadier-General in Confederate Army. In a *
letter from 925 H streot, N. W.f Washington, D. C., this prominent gentle-
man says:
••Upon tho recommendation of personal friends and many strong testi-
monials as to the efficacy of Peruna In the treatment of the numerous
symptoms of the grip with which l have been afflicted for four months
past, / have been Induced to undergo a treatment with this Justly cele-
brated formula. . I feel a decided change for the better after using It only
one week.
“It Is especially good In toning up the stomach and has a decided effect
upon my appetite. / therefore feel much encouraged that 1 am on the
road to complete restoration.
“My numerous friends in Texas, where I have had the honor to command
a brigade of her Veteran Cavalry in a four years’ war, may accept this vol-
untary testimonial to tho merits of Peruna as a sense of obligation on my
part for its wonderful efficacy.”—W. II. Parsons.
It is no longer merely a theory or an
assertion that Peruna is applicable to
such cases.
Prompt Relief
In all of the after-effects of the grip,
Peruna gives prompt relief. This has
been the experience of such a great
multitude of people that Peruna has
come to be a standard remedy for these
cases.
If a person has not used Peruna to
prevent the grip, the next best thing is
to use Peruna to remove the after-ef-
fects of tho grip.
A bale, Reliable Remedy.
Even during the acute stages of the
grip, Peruna taken in small, oft-re-
peated doses, is so efficient that many
people use nothing else.
It has been noticed that those who
take Peruna during tho first stages of
tho grip generally make a more rapid
and complete recovery.
A Most Effective Medicine For
La Grippe.
Robt. L. Madison, A. M., Principal of
Cullowhoo High School, Painter, N. C.,
is chairman of the Jackson County
Board of Education. He is a writer of
occasional verse and has contributed to
a number of leading papers and maga-
zines.
In speaking of Peruna, Mr. Madison
says: “I am hardly ever without Peruna
in my home. It is tho mosteffectlv® med-
icine that I have ever tried for la grippe.
It also cured my wife of nasal catarrh."

Beware of Ointments for Catarrh That
Contain Mercury
As mercury will surely destroy the
sense of smell and completely derange
the whole system when entering it
through the mucous surfaces. Such ar-
tieles should never lif* used except on
prescriptions from reputable physicians,
as the damage they will do is ten fold to
the good you ean possibly derive from
them. Mall’s Catarrh Cure, manufactur-
ed by F. J. Cheney <fc Co., Toledo, <).,
contains no mercury, and is taken inter-
nally, acting directly on the blood and
mucous surfaces of tin* system. In buy-
ing Hall’s Catarrh Cure be sure to get
the genuine. It is taken internally and
made in Toledo. Ohio, by F. J. Cheney &
Co. Testimonials free.

Our Railway Progress.
At the beginning of our mi I way build
ing, tho United States got their first rails
and locomotives from England, and we
even had to go there to get {mints about
their construction. Since then, however,
we have progressed so rapidly that we
are not only away ahead of England in
miles of trackage Init art* sending engines
and cars all over the world. In medi-
cine, as well, this country ean lay claim
to being the leader, for in Hostetter’s
Stomach Bitters we have the best reme-
dy compounded anywhere for ailments
of the stomach, fiver, kidney and bow-
els. Then why experiment with un-
known remedies when the Bitters will
cure you. For 53 years it has given
complete satisfaction in cases of poor ap-
petite, sour risings, dyspepsia, indiges-
tion, costivcncss, chills, colds, grippe, fe-
male ills or malaria. The pure drug
commissioners have approved it.
