"Section 1. That it shall bo unlaw-
ful for any territorial officer or deputy

ABPAE COLONEL
Recommends Pe-ru-iin as a Fam
ily Medioine.
A Scientific Spring Medicine.
Colonel Arthur L. Hamilton of the
Seventh Ohio Volunteers 259 Goodale
street Columbus Ohio writes? "Besides
having the merits of Pe-ru-na so fully
Colonel Hamilton of Columbus O.
demonstrated In my family I have r
number of friends w ho have taken it for
catarrh and stomach trouble nnd nlll
unite in praising it. As a remedy for!
catarrh I can fully recommend it." Mrs.
Hamilton wife of the gallant Colonel Is
an ardent friend of Pe-ru-nn also. In n
letteron the subject she writes: "I have1
been taking Pe-ru-na for some time nndj
I nm enjoying better health now than L
have for years. I attribute the change
in my health to Pe-ru-na nnd recom-
mend this excellent catarrh remedy to
every woman believing U to be espe-
cially beneficial to them."
The spring-time is the most favorable
time of the year to treat catarrh. There-
is so much less liability to tnke fresh
cold that the treat-
ment is unimped-
ed. All old cases
of chronic catarrh
should begin Im-
mediately a course
of Pe-ru-na as di-
rected in Dr. Hurt-
m n n s bonks on
&&! t&S M this disease. There
gijKJKajP are so many dlffer-
Jpcnt phases and
'S" s t a g e s of catarrh
Mrs'col. Hamilton. !hal onc hard'r
knows -when ho
hns It. A great many people think they
are suffering from something else nnd
have tried many medicines . in vain
when if they could renlizc that it is
cntnrrh und take Pe-ru-na for it they
would improve promptly nnd soon re-
cover entirely. There are no substi-
tutes. Let no one persuade you there
are other cntarrh remedies just as good.
