A WHOLE MAN.
A whole man
is a n o t h er
name for a
healthy man.
One of the
prime essen
tials of health
is cleanliness.
The first step
in this direc
tion is a clean skin. This fact is
well known. Not only should the
outside of the body be perfectly
clean , but the interior of the body
as well. Clean teeth , clean mouth ,
clean throat , clean nasal passages ,
are all requisites of perfect health.
The whole body , as well as every
organ in the body , is lined with
mucous membrane , which , is even
more liable than the skin to be
come very dirty. The most fre
quent cause of unclean mucous
membrane is catarrh. Catarrh
creates unnatural secretions , even
though the catarrh be very slight.
In this condition good health is
impossible.
Dr. Hartman has made a spec
ialty of treating chronic catarrh
for nearly 40 years. His great
Pe-ru-na has become
remedy ( - - )
known throughout the United
States and Canada. It is certain
ly the best , and probably the only
effective internal remedy foi chron
ic catarrh. Its cures are perma
nent. The Doctor is also the au
thor of many books on chronic
catarrh. His latest book on the
subject will be sent free for a
short time by The Pe-ru-na Drug
Mfg. Co. , Columbus , O.

ru-na Almanac for 1898.

Death of Mrs. Johanna Fane.
Mrs. Johanna Fane , one of the early
settlers and for many years a highly re
spected citizen of Dixon , died this morning
ingat ten o'clock at the home of her
daughter , Mrs. Patrick Lally , in Marion
township , this county , of the infirmities
of old age.
Seventy-six years ago Johanna Mullen
was born in Ireland , in 1821 , where her
early life was spent. She came to Amer
ica in 1850 , and lived for a time in Buffa
lo , N. Y. , where she was married to Mr.
Fane , and in 1855 they removed to Dix
on. Here Mr. Fane died in i87ileaviug
quite a family of children to the care of
his widow , which she has reared to hon
orable manhood and womanhood. Of her
family of ten , four have preceded her ;
the survivors are , Mrs. Mary Lally of
Marion , Daniel J. of Dixon , William of
Sheridan , Wyoming , John of Hope , Neb
raska , Timothy of Belvidere , and Mrs.
Annie Bailey of McCook , Nebraska. All
of these were privileged to meet around
her bedside and receive a mother's bless
ing ere she passed to her rest.
Mrs. Fane was a woman of strong ,
friendly qualities and more than average
intellectual endowment. A faithful wife ,
a fond mother , a kind neighbor , a sym
pathetic friend , a good Christian woman ,
she has entered into the rest prepared
for the faithful , leaving to her bereaved
family many a precious memory.
The funeral cortege will leave the home
of her daughter in Marion at 8 o'clock ,
Friday morning , for St. Patrick's church
in this city , where at ten o'clock the fu
neral service will be celebrated with high
mass. Dixon (111. ( ) Telegraph , Nov. 10.

"Collier's Weekly , " Nov. 1 1.
The current number of "Collier's
Weekly" is , as usual , admirably illus
trated and replete with literary matter
of interest. The editorial on Henry
George is conceived in a spirit of evident
fairness and couched in exceptionally
vigorous and scholarly English. Saltus ,
Fawcett , and Habberton write entertain
ingly on a variety of timely topics , and
Hawthorne arraigns municipal politics
and their unsavory environments with a
pen scathingly frank.
On the whole , this number of " Col
lier's Weekly " is quite worthy of the
high praise bestowed upon its predeces
sors. It is the expression of a popular
desire for better literature and finer art.
Pay Your Delinquency.
In view of the better times , and higher
prices for grain etc. , the publisher ex
pects those indebted to The Tribune
for subscription to make good their de
linquencies at once. During the con
tinued hard times and failures no effort
was made to force the collection of sub
scription accounts , but now that the con
ditions have changed greatly for the bet
ter it is expected that these delinquencies
will be promptly paid up. Statements
will be sent out to all in arrears and with
the expectation that all will appreciate
our past indulgence and respond at once.

ONE OF TWO WA YS. lfl
The bladder was created for one pnrpose , M
namely , a receptacle for the urine , and as such H
it is not liable to any form of disease except H
by one of two ways. The first way is from imperfect -
perfect action of the kidneys. The second
way is from careless local treatment of other B
diseases. V
CHIEF CAUSE. I
Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kidneys is I
the chief cause of bladder troubles. So the I
womb , like the bladder , was created for one
Fiurpose , and if not doctored too much is not I
iable to weakness or disease , except in rare
cases. It is situated back of and very close to 'M
the bladder , therefore any pain , disease or infl
convenience manifested in the kidneys , back , H
bladder or urinary passage is often , by mistake -
take , attributed to female weakness or womb
trouble of some sort. The error is easily made B
and may be as easily avoided. To find out fl
correctly , set your urine aside for twenty-four B
hours ; a sediment or settling indicates kidney Her
or bladder trouble. The mild and extraordinary -
nary effect of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root , _ M
the great kidney , and bladder remedy is H
soon realized. If you need a medicine
you should have the best. At all druggists N
fifty cents and dollar.

sample bottle and pamphlet both sent free by
