COLDS
An up-to-date remedy for
colds. That is what Peruna
is. In successful use over
50 years.
Colds are caught in many
ways: Illy ventilated rooms;
rooms that have direct draughts;
crowded rooms; damp houses;
stuffy school rooms; offices illy
heated.
A dose of Peruna at the right
time, at the first symptom of
cold, before the bones begin to
ache, before the sore throat
manifests itself, or the cough, or
the discharge from the nose, just
a dose or two of Peruna before
these symptoms begin is gener
ally sufficient. But after the cold
is once established with the
above symptoms prominent, a
bottle of Peruna, or maybe two,
will be necessary.
"For several years I have been
troubled with colds at each ehango
of season. I took Peruna and have
not been troubled with the slightest
cold this entire season." Mr. ilarry
Fisher, 1928 Mosher St., Balti
more, Md.
"I give the children Teruna If they
have a cold, and It always relievee
them.” Mrs. I. I), Hayes, 1937 Druid
Hill Ave., Baltimore, Md.
"When I feel a cold coming on I
take a little Peruna. and It does me
good.’’#Mr. Charles 8. Many, 12 Water
Kt_, Ossining, N. Y.
"No family should ever be without
Peruna. for t Is an unfailing cure
for colds.’ - Mrs. M. F. Jones. Burn
ing Springs, Ky. •

SMALL BOY
BADLY BURNED
CLOTHING CAUGHT FIRE
Little Dan Merritt Suffers
Serious Injury
While innocently attempting to
make a fire in the stove with a
match he had found, Dan, the
three-year old son of Mr. and
Mrs. W. H. Merritt, was pain
fully burned Wednesday after
noon at 5 o’clock when his cloth
ing caught fire. The flames were
extinguished by Mr. Gordon Car
michael, who saw the plight of
the child, and his prompt action
no doubt saved the little fellow
from a horrible death.
The child was burned from the
waist to the shoulder, both the
back and stomach and chest be
ing injured by the burning cloth
ing. The burns are serious and
painful, but if complications can
be kept down the little fellow
will probably recover.
The many friends of the fami
ly will wish for the injured child
an early recovery.

PANIC BOOSTS BACK
TO THE FARM IDEA
Atlanta, Ga., March 11.—One
good effect of the recent depres
sion in the cities has been to send
many young mep back to the
farm, according to one traveling
man who observes as he travels,
and who told a local organization
that one of tne most hopeful
signs he saw was the tendency
just now of young men out of
work in the cities, and many of
them, not too long city dwellers
to forget their raising, have re
turned to the country and say
they will stay and make the soil
earn them a living.
