A Spring Tonic.
ALMOST everybody needs a tonic
in the sprint:. Something to
braeo the nerves, invigorate the brain,
nml cleanse tho blood. That Peruna
possesses such qualities is ln-yond all
question.
We have on file thousands of letters
which testify to the eurntivo tuIuo of
Peruna in enses of nervous depres
sion and run down conditions of the
system.
A Typical Letter.
Mrs. Itluula Stultlc beam, Hunch, Iowa,
writes:
"For years I suffered with catarrh of
the throat ami bronchial tuU-s.
'I rinrtnp'd with different physicians,
I 1 1 kept irettinii worse all the time.
Mrs.
"This sprint; I took a cold which set
tled on my limps. I had such a couph
I could not rest at night. My friends,
and I myself thought 1 had consump
tion. "A friend advised me to try Peruna.
I bought a bottle and wrote to you for
advice, liefore I had taken one bottle,
my cough was better so 1 concluded to
give it further trial.
"I followed your directions ns closely
as possible, and thanks to you nnd
Peruna, lama well woman to-day."
Peruni never falls to prevent

tion, It i iken In time.
llattle Hamilton.
Pe ru na Contains No Narcotics.
One reason why Peruna has found per
manent use in so many homes is that it
contains no narcotics of any kind.
Peruna is perfectly harmless, if taken
according to the directions on each
bottle. So used, it can be taken any
length of tine without acquiring a
drug habit.
It has no bad effect npon tho system,
and gradually eliminates catarrh by re
moving tho cause of catarrh.
There are a multitude of homes where
Peruna has been used off and on for
twenty years. '
Such a thing could not bo possible
if Peruna contained nny drugs of a
harmful nature.

What Plattsmouth Should Do.
Nebraska City seems to be getting
all the good things this season, while
Plattsmouth gets left on everything.
One thing that helps out our sister
city is the fact that they possess a live
Commercial club which banishes all
kickers on business propositions, and
when any legitimate enterprise de
sires to visit the city for two or
three days or a week, they go to work
with a vim and make the necessary
arrangements. That old butg used to
harbor knockers, but they got tired
of them, shutdown on their clamor
ing, and now everything is running
as smoothly as they could possibly de
sire. This is what the Plattsmouth
Commercial club should have done
long since. A successful knocker can
do more harm to a town than all the
Commercial clubs In the land If not
set down upon pretty hard. Let's
adopt the Nebraska City plan, and
knock out the knockers at every turn.

How to Break Up a Cold.
It may be a surprise to many to
learn that a severe cold can be Com
pletely broken up In oDe or two days'
time. Tho first symptoms of a cold
are a dry, loud cough, a profuse watery
discharge from the nose, and a thin,
white coating on the tongue. When
Chamberlain's cough remedy is taken
every hour on the first appearance of
these symptoms, it counteracts the ef
fect of the cold and restores the sys
tem to a healthy condition within a
day or two. For sale by F. G. Fricke
