His Marriage a Failure
He regarded children as a nuisance.
He di 1 all hia courting before mar
riage. He never talked his affairs with his
ivife.
He doled out bis money to hia wi'e
as i f to a be jgar-
Ho lo iked down upon his wife as an
inferior beiug.
Tie never took time to get acquaint
ed with his family.
Ho thoujht ot his wifj only for
what she could brin tim.
He never dreamed that there were
two sidei of a marriage.
Ha never dreamad that a wife neels
praise or compliments.
He had one set of m inners for horn
and another for society.
Ho paid no attention to his personal
jippearance after marriage.
He married an ideal and was disap
pointed to find it had Haws.
He thought his wife should spend
all her time doing homework.
He treated his wifa as he would no.
have dared to treat another.
He nevar dreamed that his wife
needed a vacation, a recreation or
change.
He never made concessions to his
wife's judgment, even in unimportant
m atter3.
He thought the marriage vow ha
made him his wife's master, instead o'
her partner.
He took all the little attentions lav
ished on him by his wife as hia b
"divine right" and not as favors.
He always carried hia businebt
troubles Lome with him, instead ol
locking them in his store or office
when he closed. Success.

Children
To succeed these days 'you
must have plenty of grit, cour

"For several years past, I and my family used

Mrs. A. S. Rucker, 1821 Cedar street, Nash
ville, Tenn., writes :
wish to tell you what Peruna has done
forme, in the spring ot 1902 I was very
sick and so weak I could scarcely be up. I
was alarmed at my condition.
"I had a bad cough for some timo and 1 tried
several cough medicines, but grew worse all
the time. I knew if 1 did not get relief, 1
would soon go into consumption.
"So I decided to try Peruna. I had con
fidence in It before I took It and found It was
lust the medicine I needed, for In a short
time my cough ceased and my strength returned.
"I have enjoyed better health since tailing
it than 1 had for several years previous.
Spring Catarrh.
Almost every one has come to believe
that spring is a season that brings de
rangements of the body dependent on
blood impurities.
This belief is an old one, is nearly uni
versal, and has arisen, not as the result
of the teachings of the medical frater
nity, but has been learned in the bitter
school of experience.
frervous Depression.
Depression of the nervous system at
the approach of spring is a fertile source
of blood impurities.
There are general lassitude, dull,
heavy sensations, continual tired feel
ings, with irregular appetite, and some
times loss of sleep.
That Tired Eeellng.
That tired feeling, which is the nat
ural result oT the depressing effect of
warm weather immediately after the
invigorating cold of winter, quickly
disappears when Peruna is taken.
The Correct Remedy.
Peruna meets every indication and
proves itself to be perfectly adapted to
all their varied peculiarities. Peruna
invigorates the system, rejuvenates the
feelings, restores the normal appetite
and procures regular sleep.
Do Not Delay.
Get a bottle of Peruna when the first
languid feelings make themselves ap
parent in the spring. Take it according
to the directions oa the bcttle. Con
tinue this treatment through the first
months of spring
This course of treatment is no experi
ment. It has helped thousands. Why
should it not help you?
A Spring Tonic.
Almost everybody needs a tonic in the
spring. Something to brace the nerves,
invigorate the brain, and cleanse the
blood. That Peruna will do this is be
yond all question. Everyone who has
tried it ha3 had the same experience aa
Mr. Warren M. Tayhr, 1216 8th Ave.,
Brooklyn, N. Y., who,'.n a recent letter,
writes:
"I suffered from a general feeling of
lassitude, with occasional creeping
chills, followed sometimes by fever and
biliousness. (
"These symptoms manifested them
selves mostly in the sjring and fall.
"1 suffered this way for about seven
years.
"Last spring I began using Peruna
and followed tne instructions as set
forth in one of Dr. Hartman's book
lets which I picked up in a drug store
and to my great Joy I noticed that
within a week I was nearly cured.
"At the end of months I was en
tirely cured and feel as though I have s.
new lease of life."
Nature's Assistance.
Spring is the best time to treat ca
tarrh. Nature renews herself every
spring. The system is rejuvenated by
spring weatner. This renders medi-1 A Typical Case.
cines more effective.
A short course of Peruna, assisted by
the balmy air of spring, will often re
lieve old, stubborn cases of catarrh that
have resisted treatment for years.
A Word of Advice.
To those who have been afflicted with
chronic catarrh we wish to say that the
spring season affords you a splendio. op
portunity to get rid of your disease.
It may be you nave ueen amicieu iui
irna touo i Tfn may have tried dif
ferent remedies. Perhaps you have be
come discouraged.
Now Is Your Opportunity.
This failure was during the winter
months. But now is your opportunity
Nature comes to your assistance at this
season.
Just help her. a little and she will
brin2 vou out of the quagmire in which
vou have been floundering so long. Give
Nature a little assistance, lest her strag
gles bo in vain.
Reo. M. Fillmore, formerly 1st Licut.lrd
TJ. S. Artillery, writes from 909 L St., N.
W., Washington, D. C, as follows :
"I broueht forward from winter into
spring a sickening case of catarrh which
was making existence miserable for mei
until I was induced to try a botue oi
Peruna.
"An immediate Improvement gave me
hone, if not relief. I kept up taking Pe
runa and it has so strengthened and re
iut.i1 me that I am now confident of a
cure. I heartily endorse Peruna for ca
tarrhal affections and as a tonic for their
weakening effects." Geo. M. Fillmore.
A short course of Peruna now will
be iust in time. During the month of
Anrll vou will find the strategic time to
rid yourself of chronic catarrh, one of
the most persistent, stubborn diseases
in the whole list of human aliments.
After you have tried it you will say
Peruna is positively tho best epriug
medicine you have ever used.
A crcat many years of extensive trials
of this remedy in this cla.- of derange
ments have demonstrated Hs efiiciency.
Numerous Testimonials.
Thousands of cases might be quoted
in which Peruna has rescued people
from tho ravages of spring catarrh, and
put them on a good, solid foundation of
health.
We can cive our readers only a slight
glimpse of the vast array of unsolicited
endorsements Dr. Ilartman U con
stantly receiving. No other physician
in the world bus rccerfni .-.noli volume
of enthusiastic letters of thanks.
If you do not derive prompt and satis
factory results from the use of Peruna,
write at once to Dr. Hartman, giving a
full statement of your case and he will
be pleased to give you his valuable ad
vice gratis.

to aid the states interested in the fight
against the cattle ticks; This is the
first appropriation the general govern
ment has ever made for this purpose.
It is a matter of great satisfaction to
Dr. Butler that none of the states In
which there are ticks are dofng any
thing hke as much work as North Car
olina has done and is doing. The
following states are interested : Cali
fornia, Texas, Alabama, Arkan?as,
Louisiana, Mississippi, Tennessee,
Georgia, Florida, South Carolina,
North Carolina and Virginia. There
are some ticks in Kentucky. Here in
North Carolina the ticks have been
cleared from tea entire counties, j
"which used to be within the quaran
tine boundary and from parts of- two
other counties In that boundary. They
have also been cleared from four other
counties which are north of the boun
dary. Though these counties were
north of the line, yet they had a good
deal ct infection just the same. No

disease of cattle in the state. There
are individual cases here and there
