A Letter From the Executive Office of Oreron.
Pe-ni-na ia known from the Atlantic
to th Pacific. Letters of congratulation
ana commendation testifying to the mer
its of Pe-ru-na aa a catarrh remedy are
pouring in from every Rtate in the Union.
Dr. Hartman ia receiving hundreds of
anch lttra daily. All claaaeg write theae
lettera, from the higbeat to the lowest.
The outdoor laborer, the indoor arti
san, ta- clerk, the editor, tbe statesman,
the preacher all agree that Pe-ru-na ia
tha catarrh remedy of tbe age. The stage
and roatrum, reeogniiing catarrh aa their
greatest enemy, are especially enthusias
tic in their praise and testimony.
Any man who wiahea perfect health
moat be entirely free from catarrh. Ca
tarrh ia we:-nigh universal; almost om
nipresent. Pe-ra-na ia the only alwol'tte
anfegimrd known. A cold ia the begin
ning of catarrh. To prevent colds, to
cure colds, is to cheat catarrh out of its
victims. Pe-ru-na not only cures atnrrh,
but prevents. Every household should
be supplied with this great remedy for
coughs, colds, and so forth.
The Governor of Oregon is an ardent
admirer of Pe-ru-na. He keeps it con-

A cjrious pie is made from green

and yellow, must be first pared from
the lemon and tbe seeds removed af

Let the top layer be of tomatoes.
