Mauy jieople have been cured of scrof

Discovery, This remedy is remarkable
for its power to purify the blood, It
absolutely eliminates the corrupting ele

rich, it increases the action of the
blood-making elands, and so, increases
the quantity of pure blood supplied to
the body. ' 1

Our town Is having almost an epidemic of
typhoid fever. Three eases which came very
near to death are now convalescent, .whllo
flvo are now very 111. The most plausible
theory as to tho cause of this dlscaso hero
Is that the germs of It camo through milk

and compelled to drink stagnant and Impuro

A cold is the starting point ot
more than linlf ot tlie fatal Ill
nesses from November to May.
A cold Is the first chanter in the
history of every ense of consump
tion, A cold is the first stage of chronic
catarrh, the most loathsoma and
stubborn of discuses.
A cold Is the legitimate parent of a lane
family of diseases, such as bronchitis, pleu
risy, pneumonia nnd quinsy.
To neglect a cold Is almost suicide.
To fall to provide against this well nigh.
Inevitable evil Is dangerous negligence.
Pcruna Is a safeguard, Is a preventive, a
epeclQo; is a euro for all cases of catarrh,
acute and chronic, coughs, colds, consump
tion, etc.
