CjUYED fitz to his sorrow.
('null Ufa Unexpected Dcmonntrntton
of Hla HlttlriK Power.
Hob Fitzslmmons gave an tmexpect
H dotnonstratlon of his physical might
the other day in a downtown sporting'
poods house. The biffjighter drops into
IIiIh establishment frequently and cdl
ties tlte clerks and whatever customers
may be about by his Bkill at drumming
Hie punching bag. 'lie rarely falls to
perform his old trick of knocking tho
Lag loso from its bearings, and on this
occasion, after a hard blow had torn
the bag loose from the string that held
it, one of the ofllcers of tho concern
who was loking on and who knows
VUx well, remarked to tho pugilist:
"Oli, I don't think much of thai
Ktunt, Fitz; that piece of rope was an
old one and it wouldn't take much ol
it blow to break It. It tooK you soma
time to get that bag loose, and my
opinion is you aro getting to lie a back
number. If you couldn't land on Uor
bett any harder than that he'd trim
you in Jig time."
Fitz didn't Hay anything In regard
to the guying, but the mention of Cor
hett's name made his face take on a
more determined expression.
"Then," said the business man la
telling of the incident, "I got n brand
new piece of stout sash cord, nearly
thick enough to lift a horse and rigged
up the punching bag with this eons,
'Now,' I said to Fitz, 'there is some,
thing you could not knock loose in a
hundred years.' Fit, lammed away at
the bag viciously for a while, but didn't
knock it loose. I stood there guyln.;
him some more, telling him how he'il
gone back and all that, and then 1
walked away about twenty feet.
"I turned around to see how Fit?
was getting along, and ns I did so i
saw his arm shoot through the air so
fast It was only a blur iu the air, and
the next thing I knew the bag was
shooting through space like a bullet.
"It was coming straight for me, too,
and at such speed that I didn't have
time to dodge it. It cleared an Inter
veiling show case, and the next instanl
I was wondering -whether I was In th!
ring or In the hospital. The Hying ball
caught me squarely over the eye, and I
surely thought I would have to take
the count. The blow dazed me for a
moment and nearly put mo out.
"I guess I Avas the one that was he
lug guyed all the time, but In anj
event between the kick of a mule and
a man who can drive a punching hafl
twenty feet through the air and hard
enough to almost knock you down, th
mule for mine. I don't think Fitz ij

NO APPETITE EMACIATED NERVOUS,
Many Women During the Spring Months Suffer From Extreme
Lassitude, Loss of Appetite and Nervousness
What They Need Is
Peruna, the Great Tonic
Miss Ilerthn M. Rush, 51.15 Kincnrde
litrect. Pittuburg, Pa.. Superintendent
.lunior Society of Methodist Protestant
Church and leading Soprano of the
choir, writes: "Words ennnot describe
my thankfulness to you for Perunn. I
was a sufferer from systemic cntarrli for
ypn.ru and wns iu n very much run-down
condition. I was extremely nervous and
luid the most foolish fears over nothing,
I wns thin and emaciated.
"My physician advised tne to leave tills
rlimnte, but as it was not convenient to
do so at this time, I took the ntlvicc of a
friend to use n bottle of Perunn. I took
it faith fully nnd when the first bottle
was gone 1 felt so much better thnt 1
hotight six more nnd took them faithful
ly, after which 1 looked like n new
woman.
"1 gained In flesh, my nppct'.te return

Perunn." Miss Ilertha M. Uiibh.
I AM TIRED.
Everybody Is Tired Spring
Weather Docs It Everyone
Should Be Cautious.
Depression of the nervous system at
the approach of spring is the cause.
General lassitude, dull, heavy sensa
tions, continual tired feeling, with irreg
ulnr appetite, nnd sometimes loss of
sleep. Perunn meets every indication and
proves itself to lie perfectly adapted to
nil their varied peculiarities. Perunn in
vkorates the system, lejuvenntes the
feelings, restores the normal appetite nnd
produces regular sleep.
That tired feeling which is the nnturnl
result of the depressing effect of wnrm
weather immediately after the invigorat
ing cold of winter, quietly disappears
when Perunn is taken. Thousands are
daily testifying to its priceless benefit.
Mrs. II. Kassatt, UtO!) W KUh street,
IJes Moines, In., writes: "I nm happy to
uive my endorsement for your valuable
medicine, Perunn, ns I consider it a val
uable medicine to lake when the system
is run down from overwork. About
two years ago I felt that 1 must take a
long rest as 1 had been unable to work
for over a month and could not regain
my strength. I could not sleep at night
and wns in a very nervous, high strung,
condition. I decided to try what Pe
luiia would do to build up my strength,
and nm pleased to say that I began to
improve very shortly, and in less than
two months I was able to take up my
work, nnd felt better than 1 have for
years. I take it now twice a year and
find thnt it keeps me in perfect health."
Mrs. Knssntt wns for over ten years the
manager of a plant furnishing ladies'
wear and employing hundreds of
a omen.
Tired, Nervous Women.
There are thousands of them every
where. A few bottles of Perunn would
lo them untold benefit. As a tonic and
lerve mvigorator it has no equal. It
builds up the nerves, it gives strength
to the circulation and at once restores
the appetite and digestion. No feeble
woman should be without Pcruuo.
