ENTIRELY RECOVERED
Mrs. Edward Bisping, Dev St., Faribault; Minn., writes:
"As I have now entirely recovered through the use of Peruna,
I express to yon my best thanks. I could not sleep at night
even when I was very tired. I had pain in the abdomen
and always felt weak. My heart sometimes beat so hard and
then all at once it wonld stand still until I was wet through
with perspiration. I took Peruna according to your directions
and in four months I had fully recovered my health. I recom
mend all who have catarrh to write to Dr. Hartman and take
Peruna."
HERE'S ANOTHER
Mr. Frank Lampey, Box 66, Bristol, New Hampshire,
writes: "I would like to say a good word for your Peruna. I
took a very sudden cold that settled in my throat and lungs,
and I was so hoarse I could hardly speak aloud. I took one tea
spoonful every hour for twelve hours, and in twenty-four hours
my cold was about all gone. It is the best medicine for a cold
that I have ever used, f used to have terrible pains in my bow
els after eating, and sometimes did not get over this pain for
two or three hours. I do not have any pain after eating now,
and can eat everything. Peruna has done the job."

PREDICT NATIONAL BUREAU
ttccoramg 10 expressions ncaru ai
the Fontenelle Friday evening at
a meeting of the retail credit men of
the state, it is becoming more difficult
every day to be a successful "skip
per," which is a person who leaves a
community with unpaid bills.
H. Victor Wright of Los Angeles,
president of the National Association
of Retail Credit Men, was the prin
cipal speaker of the evening. He paid
Omaha a neat compliment by staling
that since the national meeting of re
tail credit men in this city last year
the membership of the organization
had grown 70 per cent. The member
ship is 20,000.
Moat Business on Credit.
Ninety-four per cent of the bus;-
ness of the country is done on a credil
basis. The retail credit feature of our
commercial life is important and we
are just awakening to that fact," said
the man from California. "We are just
beginning to appreciate the possibil
ities of retail credit. The tendency
has been to regard it as a necessary
evil and for the proprietor and bead
bookkeeper to look upon it merely as
a side issue. We should bear in
mind that the retail credit department
can break or make us in any line of
dition it is absolutely essential that
mere snouia De a goon, Dtireau as wen
as co-operation among the credit
men of the community. There must
be an association of the retail credit
men, and through exchange of infor-
! niation it may be tound that in many
i instances moral character and stearlv
income form a better credit risk than
tangible assets,
Co-Operation Necessary.
"We should educate ourselves to
be discerning as to desirable and un
desirable risks. We should educate
the public to pay bills promptly and
to realize the moral obligation of such
prompt payment. Co-operation of
credit grantors is necessary."
He said that the national associa
tion is justifying itself and he pre
dicted that before long a national cen
tral bureau will be established for the
filing of information and distribution
of bulletins.

The Reliance of the Home
Thousands of good American homes have learned to rely upon Peruna. For the quick
and satisfactory treatment of colds, coughs and catarrhal disturbances of the stomach and
intestines, it has become a valued standby. Home makers know that these troubles must be
taken in the beginning that-colds and indigestion lead to chronic catarrh, and that chronic
catarrh soon becomes systemic, involving the mucous membrane that lines the nose, throat,
lungs, stomach and intestines. To prevent and overcome this condition, many declare there
is nothing so reliable as Peruna, with its
Nearly a Half Century of Usefulness
This record can only be the result of real merit. The teat of time will eliminate any unworthy
article. But it will also firmly establish the worthy. The American people have thoroughly estab
lished Peruna as a household remedy of proved value. The experience of the users is proof to you.
There is hardly a community in the United Slates that does not contain someone who has de
rived benefit from the .proper use of this household remedy in the last half century,
Peruna Tablets arc made after the same formulary as the liquid, omitting the solvents. They
are convenient, economical and effective and pleasant to take. A box in your pocket means quick

Nelson Urges Kindness.
I E. W. Nelson of Lincoln came to
the meeting on crutches. He related

carrier of The Bee. His advice to
; credit men was to be courteous, kind
' and considerate.

He urged his associates to work lor

which would give a landlord a lien on

the taste, mild but reliable in their action, and stimulate the
liver as well as the bowels, cleaning out the waste matter. If
used as directed, they overcome constipation and enable the
formation of regular and correct

PANIC AS NATIONAL
HALL BURNS DOWN
Building at Thirteenth and
William Destroyed by .
Spectacular Blaze.
POLICEMAN SAVES LIVES
A spectacular fire, which attracted
thousands to the scene and did $20,
000 damage, broke out on the first
floor of National hall, occupied by
John V'ompol, saloon keeper, Thir
teenth and William, Friday night,
spread to buildings and bouses ad
joining and to the rear, where it was
finally confined by the efforts of the
liremcn.
The in st alarm brought one detach
ment. Two more alarms were turned
in.
Flames Spread.
By the time of the arrival of the
engines, brought out by the second
and third alarms, the flames had
spread lo the adjoining two-story
wooden building occupied by Mike
Korry. dry goods merchant. Most of
Kerry's stock was damaged by water.
The building, as well as the two-story
structure occupied by the saloon, the
top floor of which was used as a
dance hall, was destroyed. Korry had
used ihc second story" of his building
as a residence.
While trying to extinguish flames
which started on his roof, Joe Lang
paul, $4 years, painter and paper
hanger, IJbl South Thirteenth street,
sli),ed and fell about twenty feet to

cussion of the brain and two factured

Health Talks
(By Dr. Burhorn)
Chiropractic for Women
The world today is busy with
preparedness. In almost every
line of business and endeavor is
heard Preparedness. Greater in
its significance than all those
phases of preparedness is the
awakening of woman to her uni
versal and common needs in re
gard to perfect health.
In all diseases of women so
great has been the success of Chi
ropractic that thousands who
formerly suffered are finding re
lief through Chiropractic adjust
ments. The same principle applies to
adjustments for the very large
class known as women's diseases:
THE trouble is invariably found
due to impinged nerves, caused,
perhaps, from a fall in childhood
or from some slight accident,
which at the time of happening
was not deemed to be of any im
portance as affecting a person in
after-life.
It is the pressure on nerves
which causes headache, chronic or
otherwise, dizziness, insomnia,
goiter, nervousness, rheumatism,
stomach and bowel troubles, back
aches and heavy bearing down
pains in the pelvic region.
No known agency or science
helps a woman under such condi
tions as Chiropractic spinal ad
justments, which removes the
pressure from the nerve or nerves
controlling the region involved.
I want the chance to prove my
above statements. Analysis is free
at my office, and this will tell you
the truth as to your true condition.

Adjustments are $1.00.
Consultation Absolutely Free.
