ADMIRAL SCHLEY ENDORSES PERUNA.

Pe-ru-na Drug Co., Columbus, Ohio:

Gentlemen:—“I can cheerfully say that Mrs. Schley has taken Pe-ru-na and I believe with good effect.”—W. S. SCHLEY—Washington, o. c.

A DMIRAL SCHLEY, one of the fomnoat. Double heroes of the nineteenth century. A name that starts terror In (be heart of every Spaniard. A nun of steady nerve, clear bead, undaunted courage and prompt deefamn. Approached by a friend recently, bis opinion, was asked as to the efficacy of Peruna, the national catarrh remedy. Without the slightest hesitation be gave this remedy bis endorsement. It appeared on later conversation that Peruna has been used In bis family, where It is a favorite remedy. Such endorsements serve to indicate the wonderful bold that Peruna has upon the minds of the American people. It i« out of the question that so great and famous a man as Admiral ftrhley could have any other reason for giving bis endorsement to Peruna than bis positive conviction that the remedy Is all

that be says It Is. Statue of Tattle.

"If I were a sculptor, I would make a mud statue of the Goddess of Tattle, and tie a gingham apron around it,” says Uncle Jim. in the Appleton Pres*. Or you might make it a god. put a derby hat on it. pm a cigar between its teeth Or a dead line of tobacco juice about its feet, and stand it on some street corner—without it exciting any comment. The type is all too common.

The fact Is Peruna has overcome all opposition and has won Its way to the beans of the people. The natural timidity which so msny people bsrc felt shout giving endorsements to any remedy Is giving way. Gratitude and a dalrs ta liftlp •tilers has inspired thousands of people to give public testimonial* for Partin* who heatofore would not have consented to such publicity. Never before in the annals of medicine has it happened that so many men of netional and International reputation have been willing to give unqualified and public endorsements to a proprietary remedy. No amount of advertising could have accomplished such a result. Peruna bat won on its own merits. Peruna cures catarrh of whatever phase or location in the human body. This is why It receives so many notable and unique endorsements. * Address The Peruna It rug MTg Co.. Columbus. Ohio, for free literature on

He Went Away Satisfied. An old-woolly-headcd darker appeared at the dispensary of.one of the hospitals the other morning.

"Where have you got the misery? -inquired the young doctor. “Ah dun got it evuhywheah,'’ replied the aricicnt colored man. Wen," inquired the doctor^ “what do yon think aits yon?“ "Ah think.” solemnly answered the old black, "dat Ah’ve dun got somethin' de mattnh wif tnah vermifuge dependix." "What makes you think that that's your trouble?” inquired the doctor, smothering the chuckle that rose up in' bis throat. "Well, suh. Ah had de nose bleed , jw'ful bad las’ night an' Ah hain't no ap'tite ‘tall fo* watuhmillyons dis yeah." "Well, it's your vermifuge dependix that's bothering you all right, uncle." said the young doctor, “but I'H fix yon ont quick enough. Take one of these before each meal." He handed the old darky a little box of bread pills, and- the old woolly-bead departed with a broad grin of hanpincss. no let* because he had got free medicine than because his own diagnosis of bis case had been so promptly accepted.
