Children are especially liable to acute catarrh. Indeed, most of the affections childhood ure catarrh. All forms of sore throat, quinsy, croup, hoarseness, laryngitis, etc., are but different phases of catarrh. Pe-ru-na Contains No Narcotics. One reason why Pcruna has found permanent use In so many homes Is that It contains no narcotic of any kind. Perunn. If taken according lo Printed directions. | H perfectly harm- ess. It can be used any length of time without acquiring a drug habit. It does not produce temporary results, but “ l» permanent In Its effect. It has no bad effect upon the system, and gradually eliminates catarrh by re moving the cause of catarrh. 0OCH>O l >OOOOOOOOOOt>OOOOCKH»OOOCK.W O Mrs. F. Brockman. Sll Meade street. Appleton.

We had doctored with three or four different doctors and they did not seem to do him any good. •*We gave up hopes of cure, and so did they, but we pulled him through on Pcruna. We had several doctors and they said they could do no more for him, to wo tried Porune at a last resort, and that did tho work. 8inco then wo koop it in tho house all tho time, and no doctor it required.”—Edward Otto. There are a multitude of homes where Penina has been ueed off and on for twenty years. Such a thing could not be possible If Peruna contained any narcotics. The Benefit Which the Children of the United States Have Re ceived Fra Pe-ru-na Can ~ Never Be Put Into Words. The chronic ailments It has prevent ed, the suffering It has mitigated, will never be fully recorded. But at least this much can be said, that the coming generation owes a great debt to Peruna. for It Is In the tender years of youth that slight ali ments are liable to develop Into lasting disease, thus blasting the whole career of the individual. The mothers who ore bringing up their children today to believe In Peru na are speaking from their experience. These children brought up to believe In Peruna from the start, will, when they become heads of families them selves, use Penina -with unquestioning faith. {When Sickness Comes to tha | Little Ones I It Is the Mother Who Chiefly Suffers.

An she got Probably no larger or more cultured audience was ever seen In Atlanta than on Tuesday evening, when, at the Bap tist Tabernacle, Morltx Rosenthal, the great Austrian pianist, presented a very classical program. The first number of the evening was Beethoven sonata, which did nut come up to the rest of the perform ance. ('hopin'* sonata ami his Scherso In B llat minor were brilliantly ex ecuted. showing at the same time the great composer's genius as well as. the finished technique of the Interpreter. Kosenthal us a technician Is marvelous, hut no one could say that his music has a soul—^despite the fact that the women wruag their hands and sighed and encored again and again. Home one said that the pianist practiced four teen hours a day. a denial at once that he has a soul, for no inon who could re main at a piano fourteen hours on a stretch could have temperament. He Is too healthy-Iooklng anyway; looks as If he never suffered; he hasn't the "lean and hungry look" of the true artist.. The moHt exquisite thing Rosenthal did was his Interpretation of Hchu- bert's "Movement Musical." which was Indeed a dainty, artistic number. In the Chopin VaJse (arranged as con trapuntal study In thirds by Morltx RosenthalL and, by the way. was dedi cated by Chopin to George Hand's dog, was a gem. In this and the Chopin "Berceuse" he was delightful, showing feeling hh well ns execution. The last number on the program, a composition of his own. called "Hu moresque and Fugato on Themes by Johann Strauss." was a fitting close to a brilliant performance. In some parts the artist's fingers fairly flew over the keys, and then again one would think a lion was striking them, so great was the volume that came from the Instru ment. On the whole, It was a wonderful re cital and Atlanta It to be congratu lated. C. H. DR. W. W.
