MBBBWHbBBHW HOSPITALS iXL OYERTHE CONTINENT FIND PE-RU-NAT ALU ABLE IN TREATING ALL CATARRHAL DISEASES. CATARRH of the respiratory organs is a common ailment in Canada for at least two-thirds of the year. This condition is no doubt caused by the long, severe winters experienced in this part of the continent. Therefore, when Peruna was dis covered by Canadian people to be a re liable remedy for these catarrhal dis eases, it at once became a popular medi cine, not only among individuals and in families, but in the great hospitals, where it was used as a preventative and relief in hundreds of cases. These institutions do not hesitate to give their endorsement of the remedy which has been so helpful in the treat ment of their poor and sick. Among these institutions is that of the Sisters of Good Shepherd, who gave the following endorsement: The Peruna Company, Columbus, Ohio. Having used Peruna for the past few months, for oar sick and poor, we are happy to say that It has given us great satisfaction. The Sisters of the Good Shepherd, August2o,l9o3. Montreal. After a continued use of the remedy, this institution has found no reason to change its good opinion of tho remedy and expresses its satisfaction in the fol lowing termas She Died on the Train Unknown Mulatto Wo man Taken from Train at Columbia Dead.

We can say It Is a good tonic and we are very thankful Sisters of the Good Shepherd. When catarrh once fastens itself upon the system, it becomes an obstinate dis ease to eradicate. A systemic remedy— pne that reaches every internal organ of the body—is an absolute necessity. Peruna is just sush a remedy. It searches out the cause o/ the disease, healing and strengthening the mucous membranes, and thus giving Nature an opportunity to perform her part of the restorative process. One of the many hospitals which have found Peruna of value in treating old and obstinate cases of catarrh is the Hospital St. John, who write, as follows: "We are happy to tell you that your Peruna has given us satisfaction. Three patients have tried it, one 68 years old, Renoui Dupuis, afflicted with catarrh, is much relieved, more than he has been for a number of years. "A young girl, IS years old, bad an obstinate cough, which half a bottle of Peruna caused to disappear. "As to myself, two bottles have con vinced me that Peruna is magnificent as* Uw4v t .

One of the oldest, safest and most favorably known remedies in the world to-day is Brandreth's Pills —a blood purifier and laxative.

One or two pills taken each night for a while is the best known for any one troubled with constipation, indigestion, dispep sia or any trouble arising from an im pure state of the blood. Brandreth's Pills have been in use for over a century and are sold in every drug and medicine store, either plain or sugar-coated. BIG. LAND SUIT. In Opinion 'Just Rendered the United ..

C "Before the treatment I could not walk for a quarter of an hour without experiencing much fatigue. Now I can walk a mile easily. "Through these three cases we desire to make known to the pubHc the ef ficiency of your remedy." Hospital St. John, of St. Johns, Province of Quebec, A later letter received from the same institution reads as follows: "Three weeks ago I wrote to tell you bow satisfactory we found Peruna. We recommend It highly for colds, coughs, catarrh and neuralgia. "1 have used it myself as a tonic with the best results, taken as directed, half a teaspoonful every half hour." Peruna not only promptly relieves coughs and colds in their first stages, but is equally prompt and efficient for catarrhal diseases in the chronic stage. Of course, it is only reasonable to snppose that a great deal less medicine will be necessary to cure a slight attack of catarrh than would be required to relieve the ailment after it had been al lowed to become chronic. Directions for taking the remedy will be found on each bottle, also in Dr. Hartman's book, called "The Ills of Life," which can be obtained from your druggist for the asking.

New York, Nov. 30. —Law Fields, ac tor-manager, made public today a let ter received from C. Maase, New York manager for H. B .Marinell, the well known Parisian vaudeville promoter, in which it appears that pount Boni de Castellane is looking for a theatri cal engagement in America. In his let ter Mr. Maase says: "The proposition came to us indi rectly from a source known by our correspondent to be au thoritative and authentic. In substance, Count Boni is not averse to 'earning' his living through dramatic art, but "Tor social reasons wil not accept any of the numerous offers submitt'd to him by European managers. "The negotiations led to the consid ation of an American appearance, and I was advised to canvass the field for a suitable part. Count Boni does not desire a vaudeville appearance, pre fering a role that will allow of his be ing an artist, rather than an attrac tion." Mr. Fields says that the Count would expect $2,000 a week for forty weeks, and that while he would be willing to pay him a fair salary he could not meet this demand.

He remedied the defect by putting it to a loadstone. Christ is the divine Loadstone which will make yoar will swing true.
