writes: “During the summer and fall
of 1902, my annoyance from catarrh
reached that stage 'svhere it was actual
misery and developed alarming symp
toms, such as a very decp-scated cough,
night sweats, and pains in the head and
chest. I experimented with several so-
called remedies before I Anally decided
to take a thorough courso of Peruna.
“Twoof my friends had gone so far as
to inform me that tlie thing for me to do
was to resign my position and seek a
higher, more congenial climate. Every
one thought I had consumption and 1
was not expected to live very long.
“Having procured some Peruna, I de
cided to give it a thorough test and ap
plied mj'sclf assiduously to tho task of
taking it, as x>cr instruotions, in the
nieantime.
“The effects were soon apparent, all
alarming symptoms disappeared and
my general health became fully as good
as it had ever been in my life.
“I have resorted to tho use of Peruna
on two or three occasions since that
time to cure myself of bad colds.”

“THE PALE GIRL”

at tion is to cause more chilliness.
Thcr;i is a hot wholesome drink
'Which a Dak. girl found after a time,
makes the blood warm and the heart
strong.
She says:
“Having lived for five years in
I>ak., I have used considerable coffee
owing to the cold climate. As a re
sult I had a dull headache regularly,
suffered from indigestion, and had no
‘life' in me.
“I was known as the ‘pale girl’ and
people thought I was just weakly.
After a time I bad heart trouble and
became very nervous, never knew
what it was to be real well. Took
medicine but it never seemed to do
good.
"Since being married my husband
and I both have thought coffee was
harming us and v/e would quit, only
<0 begin again, although we felt it
v. a.'; the same as poison to us.
“Thc-u we got some Poscum. Well,
the effect was really wonderful. My

Th2 farmer has learned that hot
water won’t rinse away the greasy
residue in dairy utensilE.
He has learned that soap leaves a
residue of its own which is, if any
thing, worse than the milk or cream
residue, and it is little wonder that
there has been a constant clamor for
a dairy clgalisor and sweetener thai
v/lil meet modern requirements.
A fev/ of the largest creamery es
tablishments have called experts into
consultation on this problem and have
with this scientific aid hit upon a
product of nature which exactly fills
the bill—bora::.
Scientists have long known borax
as a cleanser, a sweetener and an
antiseptic destroyer of bacteria and
germ growths. Destroys all that .8
harmful and promotes and preserves
freshne'ss, sv/eetness and purity, re
lieving the dairyman and dairy house
wife of drudgery and of needless
work and worry.
Its cheapness and value should give
it first place in the neeessities
every dairy.
The cow’s udder is kept in a clean,
healthy and smooth condition by
washing it with borax amd water, a
tablespoonful of borax to two quarts
of water.
This prevents roughness and sore
ness or cracking teats, which make
milking time a dread to the cow and
a worry to the milker.
The modern cleanser of all dairy,
utensils consists of—one tablespoon
ful of borax to every quart of water
needed. Remember—a tablespoonful
equals four tcaspoonfuls.
Be sure that you get pure borax.
To be sure, you must get “20 Mule
Team Borax.”
