Is Catarrh, and Catarrh Leads
to Consumption.
The tendency of catarrh of the head
is to pass downward through the bron
chial tubes to the lungs. Any one who
has had catarrh of the head for a year or
more finds the disease gradually pro
gressing downward. In some cases the
progress is rapid, and in other cases it is
slow; but sooner or later if catarrh is
allowed to run, it will go to the lungs
and set np the disease known as con
sumption. It is doubtful if consumption
is ever caused by anything except car
tarrh.
The catarrh usually begins as a cold in
the head or throat, and is neglected until
it becomes chronic; then it begins to
dawn on the victim that he has catarrh.
Unless he is very foolish indeed he will
not rest easy until the eatarrh is entirely
cured. Thousands pay no attention to
it until it is too late.
Mrs. J. Priest, Lee, Mich., writes:—“ I
think there is no medicine on earth that
excells Pernna. My husband won’t take
any other. We have tested it and it
worked a great change in my son’s
health last spring when we thought he
was going into consumption. We gave
him only one bottle ar d he was all right.
I tell everybody about how much good
it has done ns. My husband says he
can’t do without it. As for myself it
saved me seven years ago from going
blind. I could not see to read one word
for six weeks. I thought I should surely
lose my sight. I commenced taking Pe-
runa and by the time I had taken one
bottle I could see to read as well as ever.
We think it is a grand medicine.”—-Mrs.
J. Priest.
Use as Mach as Needed.
If Pernna is used a cold never be
comes chronic, and hence catarrh is pre
vented. But after y, . o • »»-»■
catarrh has be-j 1
come thoroughly *
established Pern
na will cure it,
but it will take
much longer.
Even, in cases
where catarrh has
attacked the
lungs and the
symptoms of con
sumption have
shown them
selves, the Peru
na will cure. A
great many cases
of genuine con
sumption have
been cured witb Pernna after the patient
had been given up to die, as in the case
of Mrs. Close.
If you do not derive prompt and satis
factory results from the use of Peruna,
write at once to Dr. Hartman, giving a
full statement of your case and he Trill
be pleased to give yon his valuable ad
vice gratis.

Council met in call session, Mayor
Parker presiding. Aldermen Hubbard»
Staton, Williams and Dunlap present*
The meeting was called to consider
plans and specifications of school build*
mg. Mr. J- W. Golucke appeared be*
fore the mayor and council to explain
the objections to his plans, and after
discussing the same at length, admitted
that they were defective in a number
of particulars, specified in the letter of
the city attorney dated Nov. 14, 1902,
and proposed to prepare a new set of
plans. _
It was therefore resolved that the
present plans he rejected, as not com*
ing up to the agreement of Mr. Go
lucke.
Resolved further, that Mr. Golucke
have the privilege of submitting new
plans to the mayor and council within
——- days, which if satisfactory to
the mayor and council,may be accepted
by them, but if for any reason unsatis
factory, said mayor and council to be
under no legal or moral obligation to
accept the same.
Resolved further, that the mayor and
council may in the meantime seek plans
and specifications from other archi*
tects, so as not to be delayed unneces
sarily, and so that said mayor and
council may select the plans and sped*
fications most desirable to them, re
serving the right to reject any and ail
plans and specifications.
No other business, council adjourned,

1 Dr. S. B. Hartman, Columbus, Ohio :
wj Dear Doctor—“I desire to express to you my sincere thanks for the in-
\\teresi you have shown in my case, and for the timely aid and advice which
liras effected a cure of as bad a case of consumption as could be well imagined.
**Peruna and Manalin have done what thirteen of the
' m m best physicians In the country have failed to do. For more
rUU^il than three years I doctored for consumption, and spent
HERSEL f thirteen weeks in a Pulmonary Sanitarium at Milwaukee,
ftnnmigm Wis.; but finding myself growing^ worse, as a last resort, /
Uny I? L a y came West where I was bedfast for many weeks, and the
WORSE- physicians which my husband called gave no hope but said,
J—- ... *She cannot possibly live more than a few days. 9 But
thanks to Peruna, I fooled them all. In an incredibly short time after I began
to take Peruna the hemorrhages stopped. I began to mend slowly at first, but
the improvement became more marked, and now I can truthfully say that
there is not the slightest trace of my old complaint.
| “I would have written you a long time ago, but have purposely waited to
see if the effect was lasting; and in conclusion / would say, God bless you and
keep you with us that you may go on with your work of mercy for many years
to come.”—MRS. M. A. CLOSE.
I P. S.—“ I am going to visit friends in Wisconsin who never expected to
see me alive again, so please forward mail to me at S79 Pacific street, Appleton,
White Primary Occurs Saturday.

tion of three aldermen to serve the city

didates; while from the third, Messrs
Mark Ham and Howard Thompson are

good natured, is lively, and every voter
is expected to register his choice at the

added zest to the contest was the ap
pearance ot an anonymous circular Sat
urday in which was given the names
of several prominent citizens who were

schools.
