Not only la it a valuable medicine bat
it la applicable to the olimatlo ailment
of winter and rammer. : Extremes of
heat and oold in the United States make
italand of catarrh. . -
N early everybody haa catarrh. This
is more especially true among the mid
die and lower classes. Exposure to the
climate, hard -work, and nn ventilated
sleeping rooms are the principal causes.
Charitable institutions have found, by
bitter experience, that catarrhal dis
eases are not only the most numerous
of all other diseases put together, bat
they are the hardest to cure. -
Peruna is a specific for this class of
diseases. No other remedy can take Its
place. Thousands of eases of ohronlo
catarrh are cured by the use of simply
a bottle.' People who have spent large
sums to be cured of catarrh,have turned
to Peruna as a last resort, and been
onred by the use of a single bottle.
It Is a sure cure tor coughs, colds, la
grippe and catarrh In Its many phases.
Whether the catarrh is located in the
head, throat, lungs, stomach, kidneys or
polvio organs, Peruna Is a prompt and
never-falling cure.
Mrs. Sarah Jones, Pleasant Plain, la
writes: "I wish to acknowledge my ap
preciation of the benefits received from
Peruna and Hanalin in the treatment of
what was pronounced systemic catarrh.
1 took Peruna for a while and discon
tinued the use of it as I felt so much
better. The latter part of the winter
and early spring there was so muoh
sickness here, an epidemic of colds and
pneumonia prevailed. I had an attack
of cold in catarrhal form, suffering with
facial neuralgia and headache, but con
tinued taking Peruna and Manalln and
was soon restored withont being pros
trated with weakness."

Cm, N. 0., Dee: 87. Be
low Is given in full report of the autop
sy and verdict of the coroner's Jury. .
The remains showed no marks of
violence.. The garments were removed
and body folly exposed. The epidermis
of face and head, together with hair of
head, were peeled off. The ace and
head were swollen and sodden. There
were no external marks of violence on
head or face. Discoloration of pinkish
tinge on front of the head and face
with slight bluish dlsooloratton over
back of neck and occiput. There were
no marks upon front of neck except as
made by constriction of her collar.
On anterior aspect of the body there
were no marks of violence, the top skin
was macerated and slipping In places
and of a-pinklsh discoloration. The
above state nent holds true in reference
to posterior aspect of body. Vaginal
examination showed normal condition
of a virgin.
"The body was then laid open freely
from clavlole to symphysis pubis, and a
full examination was made of the In
ternal organs. The uterus, or womb,
was of a normal virgin size and con
sistency, and upon vertical auotlon show
ed Itself to be entirely empty. The
stomach, upon being opened, emitted
gas and was found to contain about ten
ounces of dark fluid and solid substance;
the solid substance presumed to be undi
gested food.
The appearance of stomach and other
abdominal organs was normal. The
lungs were collapsed and free from
water. Upon cross section It showed a
dark liver color and upon pressure emit
ted small bubbles of dark bloody froth.
A small section, when dropped into wa
ter, floated. There was no. fluid found
In the pleural cavity and the pleural
membrane appeared to be normal. The
peribordial sack was opened; no effu
sion. Both right and left cavities of
heait were laid rpen and found equally
empty and darkly discolored. The heart
was normal.
"Upon the section of the scalp all
around the bead one Inch above the
brow there was found on the left side at
the junction of the aquemous portion of
the temporal, parietal and frontal bones
a dark discoloration of the muscular sub
stances about 8 by 2 Inches in extent,
visibly thickening the, muscular sub
stance and upon a section of which there
exuded about half an ounce of dark
fluid blood. The bone beneath this con
tusion was discolored slightly blue,
There was no other abnormality In any
part of the scalp, which was completely
dissected.
"There was no fracture discovered at
any point of the cranium. The skull
bone was sawed through at the point of
circular section mentioned above' and
lifted from the brain. There was no ef
fusion of blood upon the surface of the
brain or any evidence that violence had
reached its structure or the Internal
plates of the bony covering. The brain
substance itself was in- a natural state
and showed, so far as we could see, no
evidence of damage.
"The brain was removed. While the
meplagss were Intact and the base of the
brain thoroughly inspected, there was
no damage to blood vessel or bony strucr
ture. The odontoid process wss In Its
normal condition and firmly held Its re
straining ligaments.
