Is Pe-ru-na Useful
for Catarrh?
Should a list of the ingredients of Pe
rnna be submitted to any medical ex* |
pert, o f whatever school or nationality, |
he would be obliged to admit without
reserve that each one of them was of
undoubted value in chronic catarrhal |
diseases and had stood the test of many j
years’ experience in the treatment of
such diseases. THESE CAN BE NO
DISPUTE ABOUT THIS WHAT
EVER. Peruna is composed of the most
efficacious and universally used herbal !
remedies for catarrh. Every ingred
ient of Peruna has a reputation of its
own in the cure ofsome phase of catarrh.
Peruna brings to the home the COM- j
BINED KNOWLEDGE OF SEVERAL
SCHOOLS OF MEDICINE in the treat
ment of catarrhal diseases; brings to
the home the scientific skill and knowl
edge of the modern pharmacist; and
last but not least,brings to the home the
vast and varied experience of Dr. Hart
man, in the use of catarrh remedies, and
in the treatment of catarrhal diseases.
The fact is, chronic catarrh is a dis
ease which is very prevalent. Many
thousand people know they have
chronic catarrh. They have visited
doctors over and over again, and been
told that their case is one of chronic
catarrh. It may be of the nose, throat,
lungs, stomach or some other internal
organ. There is no doubt as to the na
ture of the disease. The only trouble
is the remedy. This doctor has tried
to cure them. That doctor has tried
to prescribe for them.
BUT THEY ALL FAILED TO
BRING ANY RELIEF.
Dr. Hartman's idea is that a catarrh
remedy can be made on a large scale,
as he is making it; that it can be made
honestly, of the purest drugs and of
the strictest uniformity. His idea is
that this remedy can be supplied di
rectly to the people, and no more be
charged for it than is necessary for
the handling of it
No other household remedy so uni
versally advertised carries upon the
label the principal active constituents,
showing that Peruna invites the full
inspection of the critics.

FROM THE PANHANDLE
The Plains of Western Texas as Seen
by Former Newark Boy
One year ago the 14th of March, I
started for a few months’ (some said
a few weeks’) stay in the Panhandle
of Texas, and was not permitted to
view, as I always have, the decora
tions that springtime places upon the
trees of the forest of my old home,
nor drive down the beautiful shady
lanes, sit under the shade of the 1 >i<r
box elder at the end of the Ion# corn
rows, nor enjoy the association of
rny many friends there, nor see the
mad rush of water, as it now is. in
old White river. However I was i>er
mitted to see a decidedly differ -ntcoun
try, where hut few titles grow, except
those that are planted to furnish pro
tection from the sunshine. Instead we
are almost constantly fanned by a
gentle breeze that creeps across the
broad expanse of prairie giving health
and vigor to man, and causing the
broad fields of cotton, corn, maise and
kaltir to nod and twist, espechlly when
it develops into a genuine sand storm,
when it seems as though all the sand
will leave the country. But sand
storms are not very frequent, and after
they are over it is just as beautiful as
ever.
it does not ram very much here: ju>t
i enough to raise good crops. There
were only two or three good rains here
last winter.
This is the home of the coyote,
prairie dog. armadillo, coon, polecat,
badger, jack rabbit, ground squirrels
and several species of birds. The
mocking brids are making my ears
ring now.
This country is settling up very
rapidly. One hundred and twenty
live emigrant cars were unloaded here
last fall and winter. More than *1,500
hales of cotton were ginned in Mem
phis and about 15,0*10 bales shipped
from here. Some land made a bale per
acre. Several trains of cattle have
been shipi>ed froma here recently.
This is a land of health,
|Of sunshine and wealth;
I Of peaches that grow on a tree,
And “peaches” that boys like to see;
[ And other things I could mention
| That attracts my attention,
But guess 1 will go back
To my home in Hackensack.
