Catarrh for Years
No Relief
ST! Three
Bottles
PERUNA
Made
Me
Well.
Mr. Eli Lefevre, Jr., 854 Brush
St., Detroit, Mich., writes: "I had
been troubled with catarrlf for a num-
ber of years, and had been taking
medicine for It, but they did me no
good. In reading one of Dr. Hart-
man's books entitled 'Winter Catarrh.'
I discovered that Peruna was good
for catarrh. After I had taken only
three bottles of Peruna I was cured
of the catarrh. I now advise every-
body troubled with catarrh to take Dr.
Hartman's Peruna, as it ia a aur«
cure for catarrh.
"Friends to whom' I recommend Pe-
runa tell me that it Is also good for
headache, dizziness, and pain in the
stomach."
Those who object to liquid medi-
cines can now procure Peruna Tab-
lets.

Hard-Looking Man.
"I saw a hard-looking man a little

"You did?" came from the interested

"Down that street, officer."
"Well, come show me. He's the fel-

"Oh, I've heard him make a noise,
but I thought it was in the form of a

Diet, Exercise or Death!
An eminent medical authority writes
that most of our city folks die of a thick-
ening of the arteries or of kidney dis-
ease. The kidneys become clogged and
do not fillet1 the poisons from the blood,
and one trouble follows another, high
blood pressure damages the heart, arteries
and kidneys. Usually its danger signals
are backache, pain here or there, swollen
feet or ankles, rheumatic twinges or
spots appearing before the eyes.
"The veiy best remedy is this: Eat
meat, but once a day, or not at ail. Plenty
of outdoor exercise, and drink pure
water frequently. Before meals take a
little Anuric, the great uric acid neu-
tralizer that is easily obtained at the
dfig store. When you.have dizziness,
emus or sweating, worry, or dragging
pains in back, try this wonderful enemy
to uric acid, which Dr. Pierce of Buffalo,
N. Y., discovered and named Anuric.
Anuric, more potent than lithia, dissolves
eric acid as hot water does sugar."

Dr. GrilHn Bull. Most of us will go
further for victuals thun we will for u
vision. When the people found Jesus
(v. 25) they rather reprimanded him
for leaving them, when the fuct of the
matter was tliat^ he was not beholden
to them in any sense whatsoever. It
looks very well for these people to be
"seeking Jesus," but they were seek-
ing the wrong thing (v. 20). It was
not really Jet^us himself they wanted,
but the loaves and the fishes. It was
not the "sign" as indicating his divine
character that drew tlyin, but simply
the wonder as indicated by the fact
that they expected a constant supply
of bread, nor did they see in that
bread the sign but only the bread.
Salvation is the free gift of God
apart from works. Nevertheless he
commands the exercise of will. "This
is the work of God that ye believe ou
him whom he hath sent" (v. 20). This
is not inconsistent with 1, Cor. 12:3,
1. c., "No nmu can say that Jesus Is the
Lord but by the Holy Ghost." Like
the two blades of a pair of shears, the
executive act of my will in believing
on Jesus Is met by the regenerating en-
ergy of God's spirit making me a son
of his.
The Jews demanded a sign as a con-
dition of believing on him, when he,
himself, was the greatest of all signs
(v. 30). They sought to enforce their
demands by leference to Moses and
the manna, but Jesus showed them
that the manna was a type of "the
(true) bread of God." The character-
istics of this bretd are: (1) It comes
down from heaven; (2) It glvetli life
unto the world. Jesus' hearers did not
understand what he meant, and ex-
claimed : "Evermore give us this
bread."' Jesus was trying to Impress
upon his hearers the same diligence in
heavenly matters as in the pursuit of
earthly meals.
III. The Everlasting Bread (vv. 35-
37). Misunderstanding his teaching
