The Ills of Children.
Dr. Hartman offers his advice to parents on the treatment of coughs and colds.
TK.TF t° B’ ual ’d against colds.
I V Nearly all the ills of
uJLwkaL * children begin with
taking cold. If your
dies cold don't wait a moment before
r that cold.
ignorance or neglect of parents is due
termination of many children's com
plaints.
If you are not informed as to the
proper course to pursue to drive oft
a child’s cold, write to Dr. Hartman,
president of the Surgical Hotel,
Columbus, 0., for advice, and ask for
some of his free books which contain
the most pertinent facts about colds
and coughs and allcatarrhal diseases.
Pe-ru-na, Dr. Hartman’s great pre
scription, is wholly vegetable. It
wards oft colds entirely if taken at
the beginning in proper doses. It
breaks up settled colds quickly; it is
scientific and safe; there is no mys
tery about it. Dr. Hartman's books
tell just how it acts and why. All
druggists sell it.
Mrs. C. T. Rogers, Elgin, 111., says:
Dr. S. B. Hartman, Columbus, 0.
Dear Sir:—“Your medicine saved
my baby’s life. We stopped all treat
ment but yours, and now he is a
beautiful boy. It was certainly a
miracle.”
Mrs. Becking, East Toledo, 0.,
writes to the Pe-ru-na Medicine Co.:
Dear Sirs:—-“ Pe-ru-na is the best
medicine I ever had in my house.
My children had a bad csugh, and
_ one of them had the lung fever, I
" cured them all with Pe-ru-na. ”
;he treatment of coughs and colds is of
k > parents. This knowledge is offered
free. All catarrhal diseases succumb to Pe-ru-na.

true and original remedy. As the
genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured

FRIENDS AND PATRONS.
For twenty year* I have been giving you from 30 day* to 12
month* credit, which no doubt yon appreciated, but when I tell you
that from 10 to 20 per cent, was added to my prices to protect me
against those who do not pay f< r their goods, then you will say that
is not right for me to help pay for Bluff that others get. Well, 1 ad
mit that, but still that is the best a merchant can do and stay in
busines*. So after this date my term* will be
SPOT CASH,
which mean* from 10 to 20 per cent, less than my former price*. You
get this —the deadbeat don’t get anything unless he pays for it. What
I want is for you to come to my house and let me show you the goods
and make you price* and convince you of the truth of the matter.
Thanking you for pa*t favors and hoping to merit a liberal share
of your patronage in the future,
J am yours respectfully,
