THOUSANDS OF WOMEN SLOWLY ARE DYING FROM CATARRH Pe-ru-na Cures , That Is Why the x5lj People Like It. lil ! AH the Advertisement in the World Could Not Make Pe-ru-na as Popular as It Is. Miss Margaret Donnelly , 21 Webster ] Place , Brooklyn , N. Y. , writes : "Peruna was recommended to me about | a year ago for catarrh with which I had been troubled nearly all my life , but which had given me serious trouble a few months before I took Peruna. In ESIG7 two weeks my head cleared up , I did ESIG711B * not have headaches , and in a short time 11B - V felt perfectly well. " Margaret Donnelly. m . r rx. I Jennie DnscollV" : : : " ' ' r-j ! - November Co'ds ' Should Not Be Al lowed to Develop Into Chronic Catarrh. m Pe-ru-na Cures a Cold Promptly and Permanently. "I am glad to recommend Pcrniia as it has done so much for me. I had Imen a great stiflVrer from catarrhal colds un til I was urged to try IVriinn. and I am happy to say that it has entirely cured me. I shall never be without it and most cheerfully recommend it to others who are alllicted as I have been. " Kutherine Dauter , 'J39 13th St. , Mil waukee , Wis. Most people think the success of Pe runa depends upon the use of advertise ments. Undoubtedly the advertise ments help sumo. I Jut by far the jrivat- est number of people who hear of Pe runa , have their attention called to it by n friend. Some one gets cured of chronic catarrh bv Peruna. After he is certain of his cure , lie is sure to recommend it to his friends. Friend recommends it to friend and the news spreads from tongue to tongue. All the advertisements in the world could not make Peruna as popular as it is. Peruna cures. That is the rea son people like it. Peruna cures a very stubborn disease. That is why everyone recommends it. Peruna cures chronic catarrh after .all other remedies fail , which explains why neighbor recom mends it to neigh- ' hor. Peruna cures catarrh permanent ly , and this way has gained a lifelong friend. People who have been cured by Pe runa many years ago have been eager to recommend Peruna to their friends ever since. This is the way Pe runa is advertised. It advertises itself. Its merits are its chief advertisement. Once cured of so distressing and exas perating a malady as catarrh , it becomes the duty of every one to pass it along ; to call the attention of those who are still victims , to a remedy that rarely fails to cure. Beware of Chea p Imitations of Pe-ru-na. Ba Sure That Yo\i Get Pe-ru-na. . There are no substitutes for Peruna. Allow no one to persuade you that there is something just as good. The success of Peruna has tempted many people to devise cheap imitations. Beware of them. Be sure that you get Peruna. Miss Jennie Driscpll , 870 Putnam sire. , Brooklyn , N. Y. , writes : "I heard so much in praise of Peruna as a specific for catarrhal affections that j when I found myself with a bad case of catarrh of the head and throat Peruna was the first thing that I thought of. And my convictions were not wrong , for in a few weeks after using Peruna sys tematically 1 was entirely rid of this aggravating and distressing disease , catarrh. "If people knew how efllcient Pe- rnna was for this trouble they would not hesitate to try it. I have all the faith in the world in it , aud have never known of a case where the person was not cured in a short time. " Jennie Dris- coll. coll.If If you do not derive prompt and satis factory results from the use of Peruna write at once to Dr. Hartman , giving a full statement of your case , and he will be pleased to give you his valuable ad vice gratis.

THE FIELD OE BATTLE INCIDENTS AND ANECDOTES OF THE WAR. The Veterans of the Rebellion Tell of Whistling Bullets , Bright Bayoneta , Bursting Bombs , Bloody Battle * , Camp Fire , Festive Bugs , Etc. , Ktc * "They are going to build a monument to General William H. Gibson in Ohio , " said the Major , "and it ought to be a big one. I remember Gibson before the war. when he ranked as the most elo quent man in the new Republican par ty. My boy's heart went out to him when lie was dismisse 1 from the State Treasurer's oflice because of the defal cation of another man. There were a lot of us youngsters who grieved over the enforced silence of Gdbson in the campaign of 1800 , and who rejoiced when the cloud lifted from his person ality in 1SJ. ( ! "When Gibson announced that he would raise a regiment for the lnion service over100 men in his county came to him. IIis fervid , picturesque oratory was heard again in central Ohio , and over TOO Ohio born men served in his regiment. The Forty- ninth Ohio , under Gibson , was the first fully organized Union regiment to cuter Kentucky , and the survivors of the reg iment remember with a thrill the en thusiastic reception at Louisville. "There were speeches by men of the South , who could speak well , but not one could speak as did Ck > lonel Bill Gibson on that day. lie was a revela tion to the Kcntuckians , and he was the pride of his own men , who cheered themselves hoarse over his triumph as an orator. The Forty-ninth was a fighting regiment , and , re-enlisting , the men served under their eloquent Colonel until November , ISOn , doing duty in the last month under Sheridan in Texas. "When Gibson returnel to his old home in Tiffin there was no cloud on his name , but he was inclined to keep out of the political field. I heard him for the first time after the war at a night session of the Ohio Agricultural convextion in the Senate chamber of the capitol. The main question before the convention was the permanent lo cation of the State fair at Columbus , and we who were in favor of the propo sition felt sure we had won the day. There had been a long , stormy debate , with strong speakers on our sil , when , just before midnight , we demanded a vote. "Just then a member of the State Board of Agriculture entered the room with General Bill Gibson and asked that the General be permitted to .say a few words in the interest of Seneca County. There were loud protests , but I an old soldier cried 'Shame on you ! j i When General Gibson speaks Ohio lis tens. ' I joined in the call for the Gen eral , although I knew that if he spoke we were beaten. Many of the lights in the large , high-ceillnged room had been turned out , and the General stepped for ward in the circle of light from the cen tral chandelier. "He knew the convention was against him , and for a minute he seemed to hes itate. Then he began to speak in his old way , and in ten minutes the crowd was with him and our cause was lost. I did not care. It was like the taking of wine to hear Gibson's voice , lie ap pealed to us in the iiariienf tincountry people , saying , among > ; h r things : 'Mien ! Think of it ! What aiv y ni pro posing to do ? Ignore ( he wishes of those who make the fair and cimult the convenience of those who profit by its- location ? ' "At the close of his short address he put on his overcoat and started out. We voted against permanent location and surrounded Gibson. Later I heard him at many political meetings. In the first McKinley campaign in Ohio I heard . him in a church in a remote village , where men of all parties gathered to greet him. He began to talk to them in a neighborly way and worked along un til he was speaking after the manner of an exhorter urging men to save their souls. "He knew his men and he was after the Democrats in his audience. He could talk as rapidly as Ingersoll or as delib erately as Conkling. And in this speech he talked rapidly and deliberately by turns , frequently asking the Democrat ic soldiers how they could vote the Dem ocratic ticket when they thought of 1SG1 and 1SG4. "Turning to a group of old Whigs , he said : 'Boys , how can you bear to think of Old Tippccanoe and Tom Corwin and Henry Clay and vote against Major Mc Kinley ? You can't , boys , because I can remember when you were sick for n week because the locos defeated Clay. Think of that. Remember how sic-k you were , how you loved the man who stood for what McKinley stands for now. ' And at the close of the meeting the rheumatic and stubborn old Whigs promised their old friend. General Bill Gibson , they would vote for McKinley. " Chicago Inter Ocean. A Lucky Inspiration. "It was at Cedar creek. Virginia , that circumstance happened to a comrade and myself which goes to prove that words spoken at certain times can pro duce awe where guns fail , " said Leroy Hanua , who served in Company L of the Second Connecticut heavy artillery , to an old comrade. Continuing , Mr. Hanna said : "We had been guarding a ford for several days and had had sev eral skirmishes with the Confederates , In which we lost a number of our men. On the morning of October 19 a com rade named 'Jack' Dorstman and my self were sent to make a detour through the foothills and try to discover a good road for'w.j advance. "We hnd proceeded about a mile from the camp when , without a moment's warning , we came face to face with seven rebels , all heavily armed and on the lookout for us. It was a tight place , and meant either capture or death , for we two could not hope to cope with seven. Just as the foremost rebel brought his piece to his I shoulder an idea came to me like 1 a flash. Throwing up my left arm with I the palm of my hand extended outward , i I exclaimed : 'Hold ! Surrender ! The Sixth corps is in the mountains , and if you shoot you seal your own doom. ' "It must have been the dramatic fire I put into these words that had the ef fect of awing them , for one by one they "HOLD ! lowered their guns and we made them captives. We took their guns , bent them between two trees and threw them into the bushes. When all their | pieces had been confiscated we marched ! our prisoners into camp and then start ed out airair . This ? time we had tra versed about two miles when we came upon a rebel orderly who was riding like the wind. Dorstman sprung into the middle of the road and com manded him to halt and surrender. In stead of obeying he leveled his gtm , but for some reason it missed tire. Dorst man fired , but missed him. Then hi shouted to me : 'Shoot him , you fool ! ' I did so , and ever afterward regretted it. lie was the only man that to my knowledge I wounded or killed during my term of service. " A War Story from Texas. General H. commanded the Depart ment of Texas for some time during the j ' war , says a writer in the Detroit Free Press. He was a pompous character. Dlis chief pleasure seemed to lie in the direction of a special car for himself 1 and family , to the exclusion of even his j staff officers. lie generally took a week- I I i ly trip from Houston , his headquarters , to Galveston , and on such occasions he invariably monopolized a special. In the limits of all the Confederacy , coaches were then a scarce commodity. On one occasion , when every freight car on the road was called into requi sition for the purpose of conveying troops to Galveston , and every car be ing crowded within , as well as on top , with troops , the inevitable special coaclr was attached to the rear of the trainv The troops appropriated the top of the special to their use , it being a more comfortable place for them than on top of the box cars. In the special sat the General and his family a cosy circle , indeed. It was a raw day , and as usual there were objurgations , deep and loud , among the troops , as to the uncomfort- abloneFS of the situation. Just before the train started a wild , harum-scarum Texan , William Ochil tree , a brother of the famous Colonel Thomas P. Ochiltree. espied the family sitting around the stove , and raising his stentorian voice he could , and can to this day , holler louder than any man in " Texas , and on account of his melodious voice , is auctioneer for the largest auc- .tion house in the State yelled out : "Lord , boys , come here ! I'll be dad snatched if here ain't the old he bear , the old she bear , and all the little cub bears. " To say that , in a moment's time , the top of the special was a crowded mass of humanity , doesn't be gin to express it. The great wondei was that the top didn't cave in and let the boys down in a struggling heap upon the General and his family. It was too much for the General , and he or dered his car detached , and Bill OchiK tree was placed upon a diet of bread and water for a considerable period. The General did one good thing , any way , for he caused Bill to grub stumps and earn his rations by the sweat of his brow. Bill hastamed down since those days , and is one of Houston's very re. spected citizens , but chickens roosted high during the war if Bill Ochiltree was ir > the neighborhood. Moiiey-Makinjr Family. "The Gettite are on the road to wealth , " says the sage of the grocery. "I understood they was doing righi well.
