Seventh street, TV., Chicago, 111., Mrs.
Fleharty says the following in regard
to Perun:
"Having lived a very active life as wife
and working partner jjf a busy minister,
my health failed me a few years ago. I
lost my husband about the same time,
and gradually I seemed to lose health
and spirit. My daughter is a confirmed
invalid, and we both felt great need ol
an invigorator. w
"One of my neighbors advised me id
try Peruna. A bottle was Immediate
ly secured and a groat change took
place in my daughter's, as well as In
my own health. Oar appetites im
proved very greatly, the digestion
seemed much helped, and restful sleep
soon improved us, so that we seeved
like new women.
" I would- not be without Peruna for
ten times its cost." MItiJ. ANNA ii.

prostration if taken in time.

TOT CAUSES NIGHT ALARM.
"One night my brother's baby was
taken with Croup," writes Mrs. J. C.
Snider, of Crittenden, Ky., "it seemed
it would strangle before we could get
a doctor, so we gave it Dr. King's New
Discovery, which gave quick relief
and permanently cured it. We always
keep it in the house to protect our
children from Croup and Whooping
Cough. It cured me of a chronic
bronchial trouble that no other reme
dy would relieve." Infallible for
Coughs, Colds, Throat and Lung
troubles. 50c. and $1.00. Trial bottles

Our Fatherless Ones, published at
barium Springs Orphanage, has the
following:
Last year Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Bur
roughs, of Charlotte, placed in one of
the rooms of Synod's Cottage many
beautiful paintings of their daughter,
Mrs. Carrie Burroughs Dula, who was
quite an artist and left many admira
ble specimens of her work in the pos
session of her parents. Later they
decided to erect a suitable memorial
building containing an art room -n
which these-painting might be placed.
In addition to an art room this build
ing will contain a library room and an
office for the Superintendent of the
Home. Plans have been prepared by
Messrs. Hook and Sawyer, architects,
of Charlotte, for quite a handsome
building, the material is now being
placed on the ground and work on the
building will most probably have be
gun before this falls under the eyes of
our readers. The building will stand
opposite Synod's Cottage, south of
Superintendant's Cottage, and in a
line with it. A more beautiful and
appropriate site could not have been
selected for such a building and it
will add much to the beautiful appear
ance of the Orphans' Home.
This memorial building is a most
happy thought of Mr. and Mrs. Bur-
( roughs, and will preserve not only the
name of their beloved daughter, but
their names as well, in sacred remem
brance perpetually.
