WU.S. MINISTER TO ENCLAND * 1 Commends Pe-ru-na to All Catarrh Sufferers. Hon. Louis K. Johnson is the son of the late Reverdy Johnson who was United States Senator from Maryland, also Attorney General under President Johnson, and United States Minister to England, and who was regarded as the greatest constitutional lawyer that ever lived. In a recent letter from 1006 F St., N. W., Washington, D. C., Mr. Johnson says: “No one should longer suffer from catarrh when Peruna Is accessible. To my knowledge it has caused relief to so many of my friends and acquaintances, that it is humanity to commend its use to all. persons suffering with this distressing disorder of the human system.”—Louis E. Johnson.

Catarrh Poisons. Catarrh is capable of changing all the life-giving secretions of the body into scalding fluids, which destroy and inflame every part they come in contact With. Applications to the places affected by catarrh can do little good save to soothe or quiet disagreeable symptoms. Hence it is that gargles, sprays, atomisers and inhalants only serve as temporary relief. ****-»^„

Phillip Blue and Esther Phillips of Rensselaer, visited over Sunday with Mr. and Mrs. Roy Blue. Mrs. Joseph Grube and baby are visiting friends and relatives in Momence for a few weeks.

Beware of Ointments for Catarrh that Contain Mercury. As mercury will surely destroy the sense of smell and completely derange the whole system when entering it through the mucous surfaces. Such articles should never be used except on prescriptions from reputable physicians. as the damage they will do is ten fold to the good you can possibly derive from them. Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo. 0., contains no mercury, and is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and muscous surfaces of the system. In buying Hail’s Catarrh Cure be sure you get the genuine. It is taken internally and made in Toledo, Ohio, by F. J. Cheney & Co. Testimonials free. Sold by Druggist. Price 75c. per bottle. Take Halt's Family Pills for constipation.
