The Cause of Suffering and An Increase of Disease, This winter has been the most severe for many years. North, South, East and West iutense cold and blizzards have prevailed. This will surely cause, a great increase of sick¬ ness and death. Chronic ca tarrh and consumption always begins by catching cold. Thou sands have started on the road toward a lifetime of misery from chronic catarrh or a sure death frpm consumption. It is not too late yet to be saved and re stored to a, life of health and activity. Pe-ru-na will do it. It never fails to quickly cure chro nic catarrh less than two years old. Of course Pe-ru-na cures thousands and thousands of cases of chronic catarrh that have run for many years, but in cases that are of more recent origin it cures, quickly, certain¬ ly and permanently. Every case of cold or cough that has resulted from the effects of our severe winter could now be cut¬ ed ill a short time by Pe-ru-na. Not a single one need fail, All those taking Pe-ru-na who desire tli? advice of Dr. Hart man about their cases should write, giving age, sex, disease and time o': sickness, and he will answer free. A few weeks’ treatment now will prevent years of suffer.ng, and in many cases death. Address the Pe ru na Drug Manufacturing Co., Columbus, Ohio, for a free book on catarrh, colds, coughs, la grippe and consumption. For free book on cancer ad¬ dress Dr. Hartman Columbus, Ohio.

Through the kindness of Mrs. He nry Quigg we arc enabled to give our readers a brief sketch of Dr, Quigg’s voyage aboard the Friesland. As many re¬ member the Friesland sailed from New York on February 5 The first stopping point along the route was the Bermuda Is¬ lands, some 700 miles from New York. The trip to the Ber¬ mudas was stormy and disagree¬ able in the.extreme, on ac omit of which the Friesland was be¬ hind several hours. From the Bermudas to the Azores, a dis tauce of some 1.700 miles, the voyage was delightful, “smooth seas and fair sailing, >) The Azores was reached on Feb. 14. From there to Gibraltar, a dis tance of 900 miles, the passen gers first struck Europe. On Feb. 17, the Doctor and party were at Malaga, Spain. Accord ing to the prograrae Dr. Quigg was to be in Jerusalem on March 3, Sunday, last. There are 430 passengers on board the Friesland. In all there are GOO, passengers and crew. The Dr. seems to feel assured that his trip lias proven benefiicial to him. lie hopes to be restored to good health by his return home. Ho purposes being home by April 15. We are especially glad to hear that Dr, Quigg is having a safe, delightful trip, and that everything is adding to the pleasure of his voyage. BRING - ME-YOUR WORK.
