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.

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, P. N. Parker, Geo. Lathem, Mayor- Clerk. Kearney, Neb., July 8,1900. 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.
