Someone was asleep at the switch
and the cold wave scheduled to ar
rive in Omaha yesterday was shunted
down over another line, leaving
Omaha smiling in the lap of spring
balmlness.
Yes, sir.
Colonel Welsh has a good alibi.
The cold wave isn't here, but it
shows its ice breath all around ua.
In Kansas Cly the thermometer
dropped 20 degrees. In Keokuk,
la., it dropped 28 degrees. Out In
Nebraska it dropped 16 degrees. Up
north of 11s It dropped 4 8 degrees.
Aivl in the miilut of this Omaha, tha
well known wlaUr resort, registered a
mere fall of R dctireca, which brought the
temperature Saturday at 7 a. m. down
only to 31 dczro-ja above trrn, "It Is the
smallest c!rop ifn;nioroi1 at any point be
tween the Ro.-Uy n.ountalns anil the Mis

gAfter Effects
How will grip leave you ? You suffer enough while you have
it, but the state it leaves you in worries you even more.
The disease has an almost fiendish way of searching out the weak spot in
your system, getting a hold there, and lingering for months. Sometimes it s the
back, sometimes the throat, often the digestive organs. You are m pain all the
time; your strength is little, and the joy of living ceases to be.
Such conditions call for a good tonic. But it must be something more, for
grip is a catarrhal malady, and the tonic must have special efficacy in catarrhal
conditions.
When you think of catarrhal conditions, you always think of Peruna.
In Convalescence-PERUNA
It's the one tonic for such conditions. Literally, thousands have used it with
marvelous success after grip. Its seems to make little difference what part of the
body is affected The trouble is a result of a catarrhal disease, and when this catarrh is overcome and a
good tonic helps regain bodily strength, the patient begins to get welL There are many grateful letters,
from those who have been benefited by it. and each of them treats of a different phase. Rely on Peruna.
It will build you up.
So effective has it proved that many now take It on the first appearance of grip symptoms, and
these folks uuite in proclaiming

There is much good sense in this, for grip
infection must find a weak place in your armor
before it can harm you. Remove all catarrhal conditions,
build up your bodily strength, clean all waste matter from
your system. A good tonic will do this Peruna is an espec
ially good tonic for Just such cases. Fight off the grip. It's
better than curing it, even, but if it gets ahead of you restore
yourself to vigor with Peruna.
You should keep Peruna at hand, ready to check any
symptom of cold or grip at their first appearance. Prompt
nees may save you a long and suffering illness.
Remember that Peruna also comes in Tablet Form

The Proof at Hand
Mr. Gentry Gates. 6219 First Ave., Test
Lake, Ala., writes: " I ha a bad case of trip,
I tried Peruna and U cured me. I can safely
say It It a fine medicine."
Mrs. George E. Law. 1)1 N. Franklin St
BrasiL Ind.. writes: "I am satisfied that
paruna is a wonderful remedy for grip, and I
do meat heart Uy endorse and recommend If
Mrs. S. A. Weir. 827 W. 15th St.. Pueblo. Col
orado, writes: "There Is no better medicine in
the world for colds and grip than Peruna, One
bottle did more to relieve me of a bad cold and
case of grip than any remedies that I have ever
taken."
