A Noted Knight Templar
Owes His Health to Peruna.
Colonel T. I’. Moody, a prominent
.Knight Templar, is well known in every
city in the United States west of Buf
falo, N. Y., as a Jeweler's Auctioneer.
In the city of Chicago as a prominent
lodge man, being a member of the K.
T.’s and also of the Masons. The cut
shows Colonel Moody in the costume
of the Oriental Consistory Masons,
32nd degree.
In a recent letter from 5900 Mich
igan avenue, Chicago, 111., Mr. Moody
says the following:
“For over twenty-five years I
suffered from catarrh, and for
over ten years I suffered from
catarrh of the stomach terribly.
“ / have taken all kinds of medi
cines and have been treated by
all kinds of doctors, as thousands
of my acquaintances are aware
in different parts of the United
States, where I have traveled, but
my relief was only temporary,
until a little over a year ago 1
started to take Peruna, and at the
present time I am better than I
have been for twenty years.
• • The soreness has left my stom
ach entirely and I am free from
indigestion and dyspepsia and will
say to all who are troubled with
catarrh or stomach trouble of any
kind, don’t put it off and suffer,
but begin to take Peruna right
away, and keep it up until you
are cured, as you surely will be if
you persevere.
“My wife, as many in the southwest
can say, was troubled with a bad
cough and bronchial trouble, and doc
tors all over the country gave her up
to die. as they could do nothing more
for her. She began taking Peruna with
the result that she is better now than
she has been in years, and her cough
has almost left her ent irely. The sore
ness has left her lungs and she is as
well as she ever was in her life, with
thanks, as she says, to Peruna. Yours
very truly, T. r. Moody.
Catarrh in its various forms is rapid
ly becoming a general curse. An un
doubted remedy has been discovered
by Dr. Hartman. This remedy has
been thoroughly tested during the
past forty years. Prominent men have
come to know of its virtues, and are
making public utterances on the sub
ject. To save the country we must
save the people. To save the people we
must protect them from disease. The
disease that is at once the most preva
lent and stubborn of cure is catarrh.
If one were to make a list of the dif
ferent names that have been applied
to catarrh in different locations and
organs, the result would be astonish
ing. We have often published a partial
list of these names, and the surprise |
Colonel T. P. Moody, of Chicago, Had
Catarrh Twenty-live Years and
Was Cured by Peruna.
caused by tbe first publication of it to
all people, both professional and non
professional. was amusing’. And yet
we have never enumerated all of the
diseases which are classed as ca
tarrh. It must be confessed, however,
to see even this partial list drawn up
in battle array is rather appalling. If
the reader desires to see this list, to
gether with a short exposition of each
one. send for our free catarrh book.

Have You Kidney
or Bladder Trouble?
The Case of Mrs. Nancy Ball.
Therenrenodiseases.bat more quickly and surely derange the entire constitution than
Kidney or Bladder trouble, and it behooves every man and woman suffering from these diseases
to have themselves cured at once. The body depends upon the Kidneys to throw off the waste
matter of the system, and when it fails to do this the result is an interference with digestion, a
sudden stoppage of the free circulation of the blood and a serious weakening of the heart.
Also rheumatism could not exist if it were not for weak and deranged Kidneys.
Mrs. Nancy Ball, proprietor of the Ball
House.Columbia. Miss., says : kk l was for a
long time a great sufferer from dropsy
complicated with Kidney and Biadder trou
bles: my feet and hands were swollen and
at times 1 was unable to walk about. My
family physician had exhausted his skill in
the treatment of my case without giving me
any relief. 1 was then induced to give
Smith's Sure Kidney Cure a trial and to my
utter astonishment the tirst, bottle relieved
rno.amt I am in perfect health and able to
attend to all my duties about the hotel. 1
consider Sniit h's Sure Kidney Cure the great
est medicine of the age.’’

One may sail the seas and visit every land and everywhere will And,
that men of affairs, who are well informed, have neither the time
nor the inclination, whether on pleasure bent or business, to use those
medicines which cause excessive purgation and then leave the internal
organs in a constipated condition. Syrup of Figs is not built on those
lines. It acts naturally, acts effectively, cleanses, sweetens and strengthens
the internal organs and leaves them in a healthy condition.
If in need of a laxative remedy the most excellent i3 Syrup of Figs, but
when anything more than a laxative is required the safe and scientific plan
is to consult a competent physician and not to resort to those medicines
which claim to cure all manner of diseases.
The California Fig Syrup Co. was the first to manufacture a laxative remedy
which would give satisfaction to all; a laxative which physicians could
sanction and one friend recommend to another; so that today its sales probably
exceed all other laxatives combined. In some places considerable quantities of
old-time cathartics and modern imitations are still sold, but with the general
diffusion of knowledge, as to the best medicinal agents, Syrup of Figs has come
into general use with the well-informed, because it is a remedy of known value
and ever beneficial action.
The quality of Syrup of Figs is due not only to the excellent combination of
the laxative and carminative principles of plants, known to act most, beneficially
on the system, with agreeable and refreshing aromatic liquids, but also to the
orginal method of manufacture. In order to get the genuine and its beneficial
effects one should always note the full name of the Company — California Fig
Syrup Co.—printed on the front of every package.

Cabinet Minister* Come Slish.
A cabinet officer who not very long ago
retired to private life started to build up
anew his law practice. A corporation case
was sent to him by a brother lawyer. Meet
ing that lawyer later, the ex-cabinet minis
ter asked what he ought to charge.
"What did you think of charging?" asked
his friend.
“Well,” the reply was, “I thought a thou
sand dollars would be about right.”
"My dear fellow," the other lawyer re
sponded, “if you do that you will never get
another case. Ex-cabinet ministers are a
luxury, if tney are worth anything. Send a
bill for $5,000 retaining fee and you will get
a check to-morrow. Then adjust your regu
lar charges at your leisure."
The thing was done, with the result pre
dicted. It is said that the gentleman in
question made in a month as much as the
