Is Pe ru na Useful for Catarrh? Should a list cf the ingredients of ?eruu bo ntmitted to any medical export, of whatever school or nationality, he would be obliged to admit v ithoat reeerrelhat eahoaecf thcraa-sof an doubted value in chronic catarrhal doieases, and had stood the test of masy yean experience in the treatment of ouch diseases. THERE CAE BE EO DISPUTE ABOUT THIS WHATEVER. Peruna is composed of the most efficacious and universally need herbal remedies for catarrh. Every ingredient of Peruna has a reputation of its own in the cure of some phase of catarrh. Peruna brings to the home the COMBINED KNOWLEDGE OF SEVERAL SCHOOLS OF MEDICINE in the treatment of catarrhal diseases; brings to the home the scientific skill and knowledge o f the modern pharmacist ; and last but not least, brings to the home the vast and varied experience of Dr. Hartman, in the use of catarrh remedies, and in the treatment of catarrhal diseases. The Let is. chronic catarrh is a disease which is very prevalent Many thousand people know they hare chronic catarrh. They have visited doctors over and ore: again, and been told that their case is one of chronic raUrrh It may be of the nose, throat, longa stomach or some other internal organ. There is no doubt as to the nature of the disease. The only trouble is the remedy. This doctor has tried to cure them. That doctor has tried to prescribe for them. BUT THEY ALL FAILED TO BRING ANY RELIEF Dr. Hartman s idea is that a catarrh remedy esm be made on a large scale, as he is making it; that it can be made honestly, cf the purest drugs and of the strictest uniformity. His idea is that this remedy can be supplied directly to the people, and no more be eharged for it than is necessary for the har.d'.irg of it No other household remedy so universally advertised carries upen the label the principal active const-nenta hewing that Peruna in vi tea the full inspection of the critica

A Famliar Peril m Building Operations. S York. More then 500.000 men and women arc Injured or killed in th industries annually In the United St V'.- or one person every minute. Thin Industrial carnage costs the people of the country, directly and indirectly, over two and a half billions of doliars a sum larger than the
Such are the death tolls of industrial progress, which shows such a smiling fare to those whose occupations involve no danger, hut turns a ghastly countenance on those who work In peril of their lives. Whoever douhts these figures need only read the erim statistics to he conrincd that modern Industry Is more fateful than war. In the Japanese-Russian war a total of :? . 7; men were killed nnd wound ed on both sides, not counting the losses in nsval battles In the same period in the T'nlted States alone the great army of Amerl-
: can laborers engaeed In manufactur
ing and huildinc operations suffered a loss of i::..0K) kilbd and Injured: 2.-
00) more lives were sacrificed to induMrtal progress in on year than dur I injj the greatest conflict of recent times I Statistics of the Interstate com saerce commission show that M.lll i people Were Injured and iu.04 killed
on the railroad during the year end Ing Jane 30. 101. Sufficient data has been aceumnlatrd by the United
Sta' s .v. vnmeiit and other responsible authorities to show that at least 6.100 men are annually killed or injured in anthracite mining alone, and 4.". 000 in factory and buildint; operations, making the grand total approximately rtoii Total Death Roll Greater. Th.se estimates are conservative. If the exact Ulnar of accidents was known this total would be gnatly inert iiSl'.l In converting facts into fl cures Mr. Clarence Marx, who, with other re;onsiblf Investigators, has sivn sevral years of study to the relation of crippled and unemployed persons to
industry , presents a startling array. Of the i w uk. is m.'titioncd 15 j ler tent., or 44S.O0 o strucgle , per cent, only are killed, leaving 85 against their handicaps. Kstimatins; that at least ." per cent or 222.000 of I rp. -e are able to earn $225 cad) annually, which is 50 per cent, of the , annual average earnings of able- j bodied artisans, we have a total of i
$4f.f50,OO0. This is the luss in earninc poorer. Safely aisum;nc that those persons would create twice as much we.i!th as they earn we would have a loss in production of approximately $100.000.00 annually. But this is only half the truth. If these 222. H)0 wage earners are not reestablished they must sooner or later be supported by the state. It is also evident that the other 222,000 who are
toiaiiy usaoteu win also become a ;
burden on the taxpayers. Poor relief statistics show that it
costs $10.000 to support a pauper dur- J Ing his natural life time. To be conservative again, let us estimate this j cost at $,000. to make allowance for j those who may be supported by relatlves and friends, or who may become I partially self-supporting. Since under our present system the partially dis- ' abled are not reestablished, the total number, minus a small percentage, must be supported at public expense. I To do this costs approximately two Ml one-half billion dollars. In other words, we contract each year to meet a debt of two and a half billion dollars within the lifetime of the persons ' thus injured. Figures That Stagger. These are s'acgering figures, hut ! they are only a forecast of what we ' may expect If this wasteful destruc- ; tion of life and limb continues. In New York state, according to the
estimate of the state labor commissioner in 190, 44 workers In every l.ooo are incapacitated In the course of the year's work That means, for instance, that at least 40,000 purely industrial accidents occur In New York city alone every year The ratio of Injured and uninjured is not ns high in some other parts of the country, or the to'al number of accidents In the United States would be over 800.000 annually. In one section of New York city, the Morouch of Manhattan, there were last year 2.160 deaths by violence; astonishing as it may seem nearly onethird of these deaths, or 6S4, were , caused by falls, explosions, caving In of earth, premature blasts and falling rock. The river tunnels were eonj structed at the cost of 68 l!ves. 41 In the Pennsylvania terminal works. 20 i In the Itelmont tunnel, two In the subway borlncs and three In the Hudson 1 companies' terminal. In the huge, smoky workshop called Plttshurs. one human life Is sacrificed for every 50.000 tons of coal that are hipped out of the city For each ' 7,600 tons of steel producs one of the manipulators, somewhere in the process of manufacture, lays down his life; and for each 70.000 tons of steel rails another laborer makes the last 1 sacrifice. j Of the 2.660 deaths reported In mirtH in 1906, 919 were due to ac- ; cldenfii in mills, mines and on railroads. The number of accidents was . not computed, but It was undoubtedly . in the thousands.

This loss of llle and limb in times of peace would be sufficiently appalHag in itself were there no trlbut.uv evils. Hut the situation is rendered . more serious by the fact that only about 15 er cent of the industrial incidents result in the death of the victims, while s,". ,.r cent., or 41.Y'00. arc doomed to a onesided battle for existence.

labor What are his chances to regain a foothold? Some few corporations retain on the payroll those employes who may have been injured in their service, but the number of such is small. A few provide pensions, and even fewer have Instituted some form of benefit that will be a real help in case of disablement. Hut tho great mass of Injured persons must readjust themselves as best they can. Prejudiced Employers. The chief reason why they fail to do this and start on the long tortuous road to semi-pauperism and finally the almshouse is the open prejudice of employers azalnst hiring a cripple, or a failure on their part to racagBlSt the fact that, he still jMisscsses an economic value, as he usually does. This remorseless prejudice against which many an honest and capable man has be. n forced to contend has drives valuable material to the waste heap of humanity. If not to a selfmade grave. There are many positions filled by bovB and girls wno should be In school which could be better filled by older men and women unable to command higher wages because of physical disability. To supplant the Incumbents of such positions would be to raise the standards of education and of living, for if the children were not available their disabled seniors would take their places at a higher rate of wages though at less than current standards. This would do much to remove the stigma of a present national disgrace by which 1.2'7.::24 boys and girls between the ages of 14 and 16 years are allowed to dwarf their young lives in our shops, factories and mills. The handicapped man would supplant children only where a distinct economic
tion. reacts on itself; and tho hardpressed employer becomes a victim to the very system that is slowly but certainly adding to the cost of maintenance and production by increasing the value of labor, which he has tried to maintain, if not to cheajien. Remedy Pointed Out. Where Is the remedy'' If the pres ent Industrial system cannot be abolished, it may bo controlled. If the wear and tear must continue. It may proceed with less friction and waste. Legislation on this point is hnrolHllf more stringent, and employers tl.-.c selves are aidlns in the effort to aw.id needless loss of life and limb. This problem can be solved only by sorting out the injured and readjusting them to other forms of labor. As employers more fully appreciate the great financial loss of life and limb, as they now so carefully guard ÜM waste of raw material and so assiduously convert by-products into profit, the half million now annually forced into Idleness, and nonproduetivity will be reestablished on a self-supporting basis. Centuries Paralleled. In former times vassals, s- rfs and slaves gave up their lives blindly to their feudal chiefs, fighting their bat ties, tilling their soil, selling their own birth rights for a pot of miserable porridge. As the fourteenth century vassal sohl his service and life for food and shelter bo the twentieth century artisan sflls his labor and life for moneywit h which to buy the necessaries of life If his wages are realer than hin living expenses and he Is fortunate enough to escape bodily harm, he may, under extremely favorable conditions.
