GOETZ, The Tailor. 1 5 1 1 Eleventh Avenue, Altoona, Pa. Mr. Alex. Cornmesser, who has been quite ill for some time, is able to be on his feet again.

Our nimrods are trying their luck in the woods now. The returns so far in show a great deal of hunting and very little game. Rev. S. F.

Forgeus is visiting among former parishioners in Northeastern Pennsylvania, and will take in the state meetings at Pittston. Now that the fall of the year is here it is high time that our people would look after the condition of our streets. We should think that a gentle hint on this subject would be enough. With one or two exceptions there is not 100 consecutive feet of board walk in town it is all "step up," "step down" and "step in the mud," from end to end." There is scarcely a night that some person don't fall in the mud, and it would be almost impossible for a stranger to leave the depot at night and arrive at the Kyper house without meeting with some mishap; and but very few strangers fail to comment on the miserable condition ot our streets. A few public-spirited men have good boardwalks in front of their properties, but when the traveler arrives at the end of one piece of boardwalk, he wades mud ankle deep to the next piece.

Our streets are a disgrace to our town and our property owners. The following is the report of the Bellwood public schools for the first month: The grammar grade, taught by G. W.

WILLIAMLSBUHO WAIFS. The' Dieffebaugh property has changed hands. Rev. E. H.

Mateer purchased it from Mr. S. R. Schm ucker yesterday. Reve.

Heilman, the 'Reformed minister in Canoe Valley, last Sunday at the Keller church, confirmed twelve members. The mighty nimrod of Williamsburg, B. F. Cooper, opened the wild turkey season on the 15th by shooting two, and that inside of five minutes. Not so bad.

Last Sunday, in company with other friends, it was our good pleasure to unite in prayer and praise with the Presbyterian congregation in Canoe valley. We enjoyed it greatly. Communion services in the Lutheran church in Williamsburg next Sunday morning. Rev. J.

J. Kerr, of Altoona, will preach on that occasion. He will also preach on Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning. The Williamsburg band will give a musi cal concert in Williamsburg on November 6. A grand treat is in store for our village and neighborhood.

The services of Miss Kene Cramer and sister, also that of Professor John Isenberg and J. W. Wheatly have been se cured. Your scribe makes his most profound bow to Miss Clara B. Isenberg, of the Mines, for one of the most beautiful boquets of dallias of many fine colors that he has looked on.

If this is a sample horticultural experience we congratulate Miss Clara on the excellence of her taste. The prohibition meeting of last Saturday evening was well attended and the remarks of Rev. Mr. Warren and James Patterson were listened to by an attentive audience. The glee club of Williamsburg mingled their voices in sweet vocal music; also the cornet band discoursed choice selections, all togeth er making the meeting a big success.

Tuesday three mighty nimrods went out to nave a miguty big turfcey cunt. iney did have it too. About 3 p. they return ed supposing they had done mighty well Two wild turkeys was not to be sneezed at when you have genuine wild turkeys. But in this case it turned out to be two of John Hogmire's bronze ones.

Three mighty hunters. One a sand merchant, one a marble cut ter and one we don't know what he is. A man must be next door to a brute who will steal his wife's hard earnings, and with his own and his son's earnings go to Hollidaysbnrg and spend it for rum. The wife picked berries of all kinds during the past summer and laid by between $o0 and $60 with which to contend with the hard ships of a hard winter. Her part was well done.

What a fine thing it is for a drunken husband to steal it and spend it tor rum. Another of our young men is taken from us. With sorrow we announce the death of Calvin Hoover at the residence of his father, John B. Hoover. For over a year he has been fighting with the dread destroyer con sumption and yesterday morning tne strug gle ended with the death of Cal.

At 3 o'clock a. m. he breathed his last, surrounded by his father, mother, sisters and brothers. He had reached the age of 20 years, 2 months and 2 davs. Funeral on Saturday, October 1, at 1 p.

m. Interment in the Lutheran ceme tery. Cal. was kind, genial and accommo dating, and the vacancy caused by his early death will be felt amoug his large circle of mends and companions. CANOE CHEEK ITEMS.

Hog cholera is prevailing to some extent in our neighborhood. A number of hogs have died and there is quite a number on the sick list at present. We have been shown quite a curiosity by Mr. Joseph Stiffler; two apples growing on one stem. The one was a large one, while the other, though well formed, was not larger than a common-sized pea.

There was quite a serious accident here on Sunday evening, which might have proven fatal to one of the parties. The circumstances as near as we could learn are as follows: Mr. William Clapper and wife were returning from a visit to some friends living in Dutch Bottom. They were driving in a buggy, and when coming down the hill to the pike in front of Mr. Stiftler's some part of the harness broke.

The buggy ran against the horse's hind legs and he began to kick. Mr. Clapper jumped out to catch the animal and fell, the buggy passing over his shoulders, and brnising him some. The horse ran at a break neck speed down the steep hill and in turning down the pike Mrs. Clapper was thrown out.

It is a great wonder that she escaped with her life. As it is her one arm is badly hurt, one hand and her back badly hurt. She was removed to Mr. Stiftler's house where every everything was done that could be done by kind hearts and willing hands to relieve her sufferings. About 9 o'clock that night she was taken home and yesterday seemed to be resting easy.

FROM BAKER'S MINES. We are having conglomerate weather here on the mountain at present two wets to one dry. J. S. Colburn expects to start for Karthaus the fore part of next week to put up a dwelling house for his brother-in-law.

Three of the nimrods of this place supplied with rifle and ammunition wandered into the depth of the forest on Saturday in great anticipation oi overtaking and capturing bruin. But now they think that a wool blanket is just as good for sleigh-riding as a bear skin. Mr. A. J.

Bradley, the school teacher at this place, is enjoying a pleasant visit from an old chum in the person of Robert Oaks, of near McAlevey's Fort. They are both very fine young men and appear to be enjoying themselves immensely. Mr. Bradley expects to start a night school. Corn husking is upon us.

The mountains have many admirers at this season of the year. Hog cholera is playing sad havoc among the hogs in this vicinity. Mr. Joseph Stewart, of the west, is visit ing his mother in Scalp. Superintendent J.

H. Likens visited the schools of our valley last week and reports them in a nourishing condition. J. A. Crawford and S.

E. Stewart spent a few days last week in the City of Brotherly Love attending the state fair and the meeting of poor directors. Isaac Crawford and Samuel Beck left on Monday for Diamond Valley to make preparations for their annual hunt which they will take in a few days. Mr. A.

Lee Fleck lost his fine driving horse one day last week. Mr. Fleck valued his horse very highly, as it was very gentle and a fine driver. Caase unknown. The sessions of conference, which were held in the Lutheran church last week, were very interesting and instructive throughout, and were much enjoyed by all who attended.

Alex. Templeton raised three potatoes the other day which tipped the scales to the tune ot eight pounds. One weighed three pounds and the other two two and one-half each. Kyle Orr, last spring, sent and got a peck of a new variety of potatoes, planted them and this fall when raised measured out twen ty-three bushels. Who can beat this yield? Mrs.

Fannie Tussey, daughter Clara and son Paul, who have been visiting friends in the west, returned home on i nday evening. They look as if the western air agreed with them. In Mr. Daniel Oyer's orchard, on one of the trees, can be seen four apples growing on one stem. This is certainly a great cariosity, as we have never heard of more than one growing on one stem.

Dr. S. N. Mace, of Arch Spring, manufac tures a powder that is a sure cure for the hog cholera, we can recommend it, as we have seen several hogs cured by the powder that were so far gone they could neither eat nor walk. Chestnut parties are all the rage at present On last Saturday two parties visited the mountain in search of that favored nut.

The one returned without getting as many as they could eat and the other returned with a rea sonable amount. On next Saturday another party will go and we hope will meet with success. On Thursday night at a quarter before 12 o'clock the spirit of Mrs. McMullen, wife of John McMullen, of Scalp, took its flight from its earthly tenement of clay to that spirit land above. She had been sick the greater part of the summer, but was not bad until about two weeks ago and since then until the time of her death she gradually sank away.

She was a member of the Reformed church for a number of years. Her funeral took place on Sunday. Interment at Reformed graveyard. Parents and teachers should not forget to teach good manners to the children placed un der their care. But it children at all times do not use the best of manners they are ex cusable, but grown people who have had the advantage ot a fair education are not excusa ble.

It is a shame and a disgrace when ad dressing a minister of the gospel to say Smith or Jones, as the case may be, instead ot Rev. or Mr. Smith or Rev. or Mr. Jones, yet such did we hear not long ago and it certainly sounded very unmannerly.

C. HUNTINGDON COUNTY JOTTINGS There are some beautiful and well-kept lawns in Huntingdon. Milton Beaver, of James Creek, who fell from a hickory tree a few weeks ago and was badly hurt, is able to go out occasionally. Mr. Jefferson Deeters had two ribs broken at Shoenberger's mines, in Franklin town ship, one day last week by a falling slide of ore.

Huntingdon county has eight tanneries in successful operation. The bark has rapidly disappeared from Jack's mountain and Sidling hill, bnt there is still some left. Little Walker township's new public school building is nearing completion, and Mr. Peightal, the contractor, is giving the citizens there a good house in which to teach the young idea how to shoot. The citizens of Mill Creek were fortunate in securing the services of Mr.

J. A. Nail, of Petersburg, as teacher of their winter school. Mr. Nail is an old, experienced teacher, and Petersburg, where he has taught so many terms, loses one of the best disciplinarians in the county.

His school opened on Monday last. Success, my friend, attend you. Miss Katie Smith, daughter of ex-Commis sioner Smith, of Huntingdon, and who has been attending the Normal college the past few months, commenced teaching her winter termot school in the upper end ot the county on Monday. Miss Smith is a popular in structor and has a host of friends in the county. She is what every young lady should try to be a true woman.

God bless her. Mr. George Sorrick and wife, of Altoona, were at the residence of Mrs. Sorrick over Sat urday and Sunday, and mother is glad, no doubt, to see her son at Marklesburg, his native home. Miss Annie Sorrick, of the Huntingdon Normal college, accompanied by Miss Norris, her schoolmate, and Miss Julia Sorrick, another sister, came home over Sun day and mother was again made happy by baying her children all at home once more.

Happy family. The German Baptists, otherwise known as Dunkards, will hold a two days meeting at their chnrch near James Creek, commencing on Saturday. Some notable preachers from a distance will be in attendance during the continuance of the meetings, and it is ex pected that the series of meetings will be in teresting and productive of much good. Since the establishment of this church in Penn township many years ago this denomina tion has added upward of a hundred members to the church. Mr.

Solomon Weaver, aged about 50 years. of Russelville, Hopewell township, died last Saturday morning at 4 o'clock, and was con signed to the tomb at the Russelville cemetery, on Monday following, at 10 o'clock a. m. Mr. Weaver has been ill a long time and suffered much until death came to his relief.

He died ot consumption. His wife preceded him to the tomb some time since, and one son only remains to mourn their departure. He was a consistent member of the Reformed church and his pastor, Rev. H. F.

Long, was diligent to administer to his spiritual com fort during the entire illness of his friend and brother in Christ. An honest man, a true neighbor, and highly respected by all who mingled in his society, Mr. Weaver will be greatly missed from the community where he lived. His tnneral was lai geiy attenoea, ana Rev. Mr.

Long discoursed feelingly at his grave. Peace to his ashes. MABTINSBUBG MATTEBS. The Methodist Sunday school is putting forth a great big effort to replenish its library. D.

M. Klepser, is putting rollers in his Clover Creek mill, and will be ready furnish bis customers with new flour in a few days. Rev. J. David Miller and his elder, David Aurandt, are in attendance upon the sittings of the synod of the Reformed church of America, now holding its sessions in Cham bersburg.

Quite a number of our mighty hunters are camping in the Kettle, Tussy's mountain, and are having delightful weather and a jolly good time. Yet, thus far the turkeys, deer and bear roam in the wild unmolested. Competition is the life of trade. This old saw is being demonstrated with ns just now. F.

W. Keagy have added a boot and shoe department to their hardware line, and Eichelberger Ashcom are handling hard ware. Go in boys, cheap goods will be the result. Mrs. Mollie Keagy and Miss Emma Myers having associated themselves in co-partner ship in the mantua making and millinery business, and having taken rooms in the building of H.

C. Nicodemus, on Locust street, are prepared to apply the needle and thread and do up all work, with neatness and dispatch, according to the latest style. Rev. D. S.

Shoop, pastor of the Bethel church, left us Tuesday for Shippensburg to attend the meeting of the eldership of his church. According to the rules of that church he can be removed to other fields of labor, but his pastorate being agreeable to his people, an effort is being put forth for his return to this charge for another year. Ine late marriage license law is causing considerable trouble in the matrimonial arena, either because of its ambiguity or else on the failure of county officials to read it right. One county has both the contracting parties to appear in person in the proper of fice and answer questions and sign papers, and another county only requires the man to appear and permits him to answer for both parties. Cannot there be a uniformity of procedure throughout the state Bad Fate of a Child.

Newport, October 19. Guy Earle, a 19 month-old son ot William M. Horting. while playing about the yard to-day fell into be cistern and was drowned. Charley, son of Dr.

H. B. Piper, of this place, fell and broke his left forearm just below the elbow Friday, while in the act of jumping from a springboard on the grounds adjoining the Ward house. Dr. C.

We are pleased to know that W. F. Tay lor lound his cow which was lost, and which was advertised in the Tyrone letter on Monday labt. After a search of one week without being rewarded, he concluded to advertise, and in less than twenty-four hours knew of the whereabouts of his lost treasure, and yet some people say it "doesn'tpay toadvertise." Young men who are disengaged during the day and evenings will find the Yonng Men's Christian association reading rooms a pleasant and profitable place to spend their leisure hours. A large number oi tne aauy ana weekly papers, besides a variety of other kinds of literature, can always be found there, and from which valuable information can be obtained.

Since the new sewer has been completed on Berlin street a number of residents on Juniata street are tormented by Tats to such an extent that it has become impossible to use their cellars for the storage of anything but coal, wood, etc. Eatables disappear in a night, and even during the day, when an intruder enters one of these cellars the rats "make Rome howl" for awhile in their en deavors to get away. Dr. Grier, principal of the Mountain semi nary. Uirmingnam.

accompaniea oy some sixty young ladies, passed through here Mon day afternoon, in a special car, on an ex cursion trip over tne jseu'8 uap rauroaa. This excursion was gotten up by Mr. brner in order to give his pupils an opportunity to view the scenery and also a half-day's recreation and rest from their studies. We understand this most successful and deserving school is filled to its utmost capacity. It has now been in existence for more than a quar ter of a century, and is the most delightfully situated institution of the kind in the state.

When the Methodist ladies and the chil dren of the Sunday school, of this place, agreed to take boxes for a Thanksgiving offer ing to the new cburcn, tne pastor tooK a dox also. He planted one bushel of special seed potatoes, "Pearl of Savoy," on the farm of Mrs. Annie K. Gray, sinmng vauey, one of his members, and as a yield has forty bushels. The potato is a new variety, a brand of Early Rose and Clark No.

1, a won derful cropper, the flesh of a beautiful white, very mealy and two weeks earner tnan tne Early Rose. A specimen bushel can be seen at any time at the office of Dr. C. M. Ewing.

Seed will be furnished and sent to any address for 75 cents per package, or $1.50 per half-bushel, $2 per bushel. A book reception and sociable was held at the Presbyterian church last Tuesday evening which was enjoyable in the extreme. After the audience had assembled Professor Leigh- ty's orchestra opened the evening's entertain ment by a beautiful selection ot music, wnicn was followed by an anthem by the Sunday school choir, select reading by Miss Kays, selection by the orchestra, select reading by Master Percy Kegel, cornet solo Dy iroiessor Lighty, with organ accompaniment by Miss Hamer, select reading by Mrs. 1. if.

Walton, and music by the orchestra and choir com bined. The obiect ot tne sociable was to gather in as many members of the church as possible and for each one to bring a dook suitable for the library, inasmuch, as the money laid out for that purpose did not purchase as many as was desired. Quite a large selection was donated. "Where there's smoke there's generally fire," and reports of occurrences generally have a starting place and a foundation on which to build. We have referred to report circulated some time since regarding the mar riage ot Mr.

Charles Gray and Miss Ella Wil liams, of this place, at Wamorsmark, by Rev. G. W. Bouse. We wereinclinedto believe the report, but Charley assured us "it was news to him." We suppose it was; but it comes straight now, and is not contradicted, and while we extend our hearty congratula tions to the newly married couple, we wish them joy and prosperity in all their under takings, and when they set to Housekeeping and the little tailors come to make home happy, father and mother can relate to them how they hied away to a neighboring town and were joined in marriage the evening be fore the marriage license law went into enecr.

We are called upon to chronicle the sad news of the death of Mrs. Lillie Likens, which took place Wednesday morning at 6 o'clock. Deceased was the daughter of John W. Manning, also deceased, and a bright, amiable young lady, a dutiful child and kind and loving mother, whose noble traits ot character won for her many warm and lasting friends. Her health was of the best until about three years ago, when a cancerous af fection made its appearance on her breast, which gradually grew and stole by degrees her youDg life, bringing suffering and pain almost unendurable; but she bore all without a murmur until the angel ot death summoned her spirit to another world, bhe was 29 years, 8 months and 6 days.

Quite a brilliant wedding took place Wed nesday morning at the residence of Mr. Ogle Burley, which Mr. Harry Myers and Miss Belle Burley were made man and wife by Dr. J. S.

McMurray, of Huntingdon. After the ceremony the bride and groom and the in vited enests sat down to a table which al most groaned under the weight of the rich viands which had been previously prepared, and as they relished the substantiate as well as the delicacies, the air rang with merry voices and well-wishes for the newly-married couple. The time soon sped by, and at 12 o'clock the wedding party were driven to the depot, leaving amid a shower of old shoes and such things as are gener ally hurled at people when they get married. Arriving at the station they board ed day express for Philadelphia, New York, Atlantic City, Saratoga, and from thence home, expecting to be absent about two weeks. Not often do we meet with an occur rence of this kind where two people are given in marriage whose dispositions seem to harmonize so closely, for while the bride posses ses the true spirit of womanhood, never car ing for the frivolities of the gay and giddy, she has not neglected to inform herself as to the caies and duties of the household, always caring more for the comfort and pleasure of her brothers, sisters and her home than the street promenade and idle pastime and while we thus endeavor to speak of her we also compliment her on the excellent choice she has made in selecting a life partner.

Harry, from his early days has been studious and industrious, looking to the best interests of self, spending the greater portion ot his young days in storing his mind with knowledge, which now gives a means of maintaining those dependent upon him. He is one of our best young men, and as he takes his bride to his new house already furnished in Houtz-dale, he robs Tyrone society of two of its best citizens. We join with a host of friends in wishing them a safe wedding trip and return home, and may prosperity and happiness always attend them. FEAH KSTOWB FINDINGS. Husking corn is the order of the day.

The crop is a good one. Frank Mentzer says that if it had not been for a thief he would not have purchased a new set of harness. More buckwheat has been raised in Franks-town township this season than has been for quite a number of years. Hog cholera is raging among the hogs of the Scotch Valley farmers A. B.

Stewart having lost two on last Saturday. Mr. Abraham Reese, who has been afflicted and confined to his bed for more than a year, is at this writing very poorly, and it is thought that he cannot survive more than a day or two. Rev. M.

J. Fiery, pastor of the First Lutheran church, of Altoona, delivered a lecture in the Geeseytown Lutheran church, on Friday evening. Subject, "Temperance." The attendance was good and the lecture fully appreciated. Three weeks ago Irvin Mentzer, by some mishap, fell from a ladder upon which he was picking apples and fractured the bone of his wrist and overstretched the ligament of the hip joint. The injured wrist is doing well, but as the injury to the hip joint is of a serious nature, his entire recovery is a question of time.

Five years ago there lived in the neighborhood of Frankstown five men, who, in the estimation of a tew, were men of notoriety meaning dishonest, untruthful, Whilst a sufficient number of citizens called upon these men to fill various township offices, and at no time during the past twelve years was the township without one or more of these men serving her faithfully. Of these men one is dead, one has moved away and the other three remain in the township and live upon their notoriety. HOLLIDAYSBUKOr HAPPENINGS. And now it is the mumps that trouble the children. Mr.

He informs us that blossoms are also to be seen on the same bush. Now let us hear from Albert Wilson. We are very sorry to learn that Miss Anna Porter, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. C.

H. Porter, is threatened with blindness. She was taken to Philadelphia on Thursday evening by her parents, who will consult Dr. Norris in the hopes of her gaining relief. The funeral of John F.

McFarlane was vfirv larsrelv attended. He was born and reared in our community; was possessed of more than ordinary intellect; graduated with honors at our high school was a young man ot good, moral habits, and universally loved and respected, and hence his early death is greatly regretted. Any of the old Portage railroaders or Juniata canal boatmen whose names have been omitted from the register, can have their names recorded by sending the same to Major S. S. Barr, who has charge of the book.

At the next annual reunion the roll will be called and the names of all the pioneer transportation men should appear upon the record. An effort was made by the Presbyterian congregation of this place Sunday mora ine to raise $600 with which to purchase new heaters for the church. A statement of the necessities ol the occasion by the trustees was read by Hon. A. S.

Landis, who suplement- edtbe same with appropriate remarks; and T)r. Barron referred to the matter in a very opportune manner during the sermon, after which the deacons passed around the baskets and $424 was the amount ot tne contriDU- tions. The $176 remaining will be raised without difficulty. Miss Delia Banks Porter, daughter of Mr. C.

H. Porter, and Mr. N. B. Trist, of Washington, D.

W. S. Carl. A pheasant flew against one of the back windows of Dr. Leet's residence the other evening and fell upon the ground, but after flattering about for a short time regained its power of flight, and ascending flew over the building.

But the unfortunate bird again be came bewildered and struck against the plate class in the second story window ot Mr. Glessner's store with such force as to break its neck. It was suggested to Mr. Glessner that by bleeding the bird at once it could be eaten. A commercial traveler was handling the pheasant at the time, and he stated that when he hunted game of this kind he be headed them in this way, and at the same time put the head of the bird in his mouth and bit it on.

Our item Tuesday about the bearing branch of raspberries has brought to the front the author, so tar as is con-concerned, ot this prolific bush. Mr. Thomas B. Gilson cultivates the parent bush in his garden. He brought it originally from near Batavia, 111 some thirty years ago.

When he came from Gallitzin to this town he brought this valuable berry with him. He brought a specimen to our office and for an October product it is a marvel, une Drancn is nineteen inches long and contains ten bunches of large, fine-looking berries, ripe, semi-riDe. and some quite green; the other branch is fourteen inches long and contains eight bunches of fruit. This variety bears monthly continually until the ground is fro zen in the late fall. One great and valuable peculiarity about this raspberry is that it will not spread all over creation, but a sprout will arow up, bear its fruit, and die new sprouts are continually replacing theold ones.

It is increased by bending over and burying the tops. Mr. Gilson will exhibit specimens of this berry at the next county fair. The Alumni association of the Hollidays bnrg high school assembled in room No. 9 of the school building on Katuraay anernoon, for the purpose of manifesting their expressions of regret and adopting suitable resolutions relative to the death of their late fellow associate, John F.

Resolved. That we attend the funeral of our late fellow-member in a body. Resolved, That the secretary notify each member of our association of onr loss and re- qnest, in memory of him, we wear for thirty davs arjpronriate badge.

A thing that would do this is lower than the poor animal whose life he takes. The rails have been laid on the Cresson and Coal port railroad to a point about two miles up the creek. It is said the construction force is to be increased by some sixty more men this week. The steam flouring mill seems to "hang fire" in its construction from what cause we have not learned. It is to be hoped that its projectors will not abandon it altogether, as it is much needed.

Talk about your "pumpkins," Captain F. M. Flanigan, of this place, "rolled" two into his barn the other day weighing 148 and 134 pounds, respectively. They were about the size of a common flour barrel. The Irvona tannery is rapidly approaching completion.

Mrs. Christian Zelle, aged sixty-three years, of Carondelet, St. Louis, Missouri, had a chronic ulcei on her leg which had been running for forty-three years.

To use her own language, she had tried all the doctors," but without perceptible benefit. Two of the most noted' of this city advised her, as the only alternative from death, to have the leg amputated below the knee. She was troubled with an intolerable itching sensation, which only gave way to a distracting pain, which made death her daily wish. She could not sleep or rest. On March 21, this year, shn commenced using Dr.

Hart-lnan's PERUNA, and to-day the leg is entirely healed, and the thankful old lady says she has slept more during the last three months than she did in the previous forty -three years. Miss Alice Brady, of East St. Louis, Illinois, suffered from catarrh ophthalmia for five years. On April 27 she began treatment under Dr. Hartman.

For a year before she was a patient of two of the best known oculists of this city, but they signally failed to help her. After one month under Dr. Hartmap and his Peruna, her e3-es have almost entirely healed, and, according to her own statement, he has done more for her in this short space of time than the oculists did in the previous whole year. Peruna. of course, did it.

Miss Annie Baker, First Avenue, Milwaukee, writes I take great pleasure in recommending PERUNA. For years I have suffered from Asthma. I was induced to try PERUNA. It promptly relieved the paroxj'sms, and its continued use renders their recurrence less and less frequent. I am confident it will cure me completely." Walker Brothers, druggists, Batavia, write: "Dr.

S. B. Hartman, Columbus, Dear Sir Some two weeks ago I had a very peculiar case, and after a few questions were answered, I came to the conclusion it was catarrh of the stomach of the worst kind, of ten years' standing. The patient had consulted every physician far and near. I persuaded her to try your PERUNA and MaNALIN.

She had been having spasms every three or four days, and the fifth dose kept them eff, and they have not returned since." W. M. Griffith, Ashland, writes: 'The large chronic ulcers of fifteen months' standing, are entirely healed. The swelling, pain and itching have all subsided, the leg is healed, and I am perfectly well. Peruna is a wonderful remedy." Pe-BU-na is sold by all druggists.

Well, it doesn't. But it does cure any disease for which a reputable physician would prescribe IHOI. Physicians recognize Iron as the best restorative agent known to the profession, and inaniry of any leading chemical firm will substantiate theasz-rtion that there are more preparations of iron than ci any other substance ased in medicine This shows conclusively that iron is acknowledged to be the most important factor in successful medical practice.

It is, however, a remarkable fact, that prior to the discovery of BROWN'vS I RON BITTERS no perfect-ly satisfactory iron combination had ever been found.
