Member Ohio Legislature, 1 1894 to 1 1998 1 1900 to 1 1902 THE GAZETTE is the oldest, and has the largest bona fide circulation, double that of any newspaper in the interest of Afro-Americans, published in the state of Ohio, and comparison with any will immediately establish its rank as one of the NEWSIEST AND BEST in the country. ANOTHER GREAT VICTORY The Supreme court of Ohio for a second time in little more than a year, has sustained our Ohio anti-lynching law. About a year ago it adjudged constitutional the act in question. On Tuesday it sustained or reaffirmed its decision of last year whereby the heirs of "Click" Mitchell secured judgment against Champaign county for $5,000 because of the now notorious lynching of Mitchell. Logan county, which adjoins Champaign, last November a year ago had a mob demonstration in which three persons, two colored men and one white woman, were more or less injured. They brought three suits against the county, one of which is still pending. The two Afro-Americans secured judgments for $1,000 and $700 respectively, and have received the money. There is practically no question as to the outcome of the woman's suit. Champaign county's lynching and Logan county's mob violence demonstration, the only two affairs in which Afro-Americans were interested, to take place since the anti-lynching law was enacted in 1896, have thus far cost the two counties in question $6,700, and the end is not yet. In our judgment the only true principle in law upon which to base anti-lynching or mob violence legislation is that embodied in our Ohio anti-lynching law, which makes the county liable for all such unlawful demonstrations. This is slowly but surely being demonstrated to the entire satisfaction of all who for years have made a study of the matter. MAJOR R. R. WRIGHT'S STATE MENT. The address of President Wright before the United States industrial commission is eminently meritorious in many respects, touching upon the increasing worth of the Afro-American of the south. Certainly the major desires the "summum bonum" for his own, poor suffering people. The facts he gleans from statistics afford a most encouraging outlook for the race in placing our country in the front rank of nations. Unfortunately he is made to say: "Had the government at the same time given the freedman his mule and 40 acres RATHER than the ballot, the government would have more greatly benefited both ex-slave and ex-master." We took the issue, that the enfranchisement of the Afro-American was a master of right and justice as well as most expedient. Had the general government and the south been faithful and loyal to their own obligations, there could have been no cause of complaint against the Afro-American. This has been the bulk of our contention, not so much with a view of making issue with President Wright, for whose utterances we are bound to entertain the highest regard, but with the purpose of offering our most indignant protest against the cold and heartless indifference on the part of this government and the daring and cruel persecution on the part of the people of the south from whom the race has suffered. Our soul swells with burning indignation against the cowardly and treacherous hand that has been too long played against the newly enfranchised citizens of this republic, and we may be pardoned in our unwillingness to condone a remissness that has been simply and purely criminal. We are not a race of mendicants. Nature has endowed us with the elements of intelligence and manhood and we abhor and denounce such a spirit on the part of our government to tolerate the humiliation and degradation of the black man. And though we are placed at variance with our good friend, the major, in his very conservative views, we believe he will accord us the magnanimity of a respectful difference of opinion which seems to clash with his own. On reading the entire address of President Wright with interest and care, we are pleased to modify our own views touching the hopefulness he entertains for the race and commend him for the cause which he has so nobly espoused. A FAIR AND HONEST DEAL ASKED At any time in treating upon matters appertaining to our republican administration, we desire to be strictly fair and just dealing. The rights and liberties of the people are so dear to every true and patriotic heart, and are so interwoven into the very soul and fiber of our political system that there can be no infringement upon the privileges of a single citizen without trespassing upon all. Our government is a co-partnership of the people, and according to the principles of the organic law and the articles of amendment, no man's rights can be impaired or invalidated. But a most striking anomaly presents itself to the integrity and wisdom of the government that while equal laws are adopted and the clearest provisions are made for the maintenance of measures fair dealing to every free citizen, yet a bold and palpable discrimination is tolerated in open defiance of law. To prescribe a code of laws for popular government and then ignore them is foul-handed injustice and admits of universal condemnation. The American people are not blind to the duties and obligations of this nation. They are not hardened and confirmed reprobates given to treachery and double dealing. They rather expect the custodians of law and government to dispense justice in its application to every man, woman and child in the republic. Very especially too is that justice to be meted out to every citizen irrespective of race or nationality. The common sentiment of the masses allies itself with the side of justice, and it is very conclusive that the people expect more in the way of a fair and honorable administration of public duties than has been accorded. Any compromise or tampering with the liberties of the people should never have been tolerated either on the part of congress or the president. But it has been done in open hollow mockery of well established principles of law and government. Instead of perpetuating and rendering unalterable and irrevocable the principles upon which our government is based, there is a persistent attempt to weaken and reverse the machinery of our system. Instead of solidifying the fortresses of government and vitalizing popular impulse with a love and zeal for the American cause the very tendency in practice is to disintegration and dismemberment. Quite unwillingly will Anglo-Americans regard the facts as given in this light. But the truth of history is proof that no government can endure beyond its time, when beguiled by the blandishments of power, and betrayed by the hardened indifference of self-seeking popularity. What are the facts to-day and what is the tendency of present conditions? President McKinley and his administration seem less concerned and less disposed to shield the rights of the Afro-American than any of his professed republican predecessors. In the distribution of the Federal patronage he has appointed Confederate veterans to positions under the government which might have been filled by deserving Afro-Americans. He has granted petitions, heard pleas and rendered a ready compliance to the behest of a dominating southern element, while Afro-Americans have been ignored and snubbed in their humblest hopes and prayers. We prefer by far to indorse and commend the action of the present administration, but when we find reasons to complain and to offer protests rather than applaud and rejoice, we resort to the former course with feelings of regret, believing in the justice of our cause and the duty we owe to all the people. Let the president and his administration be as ready, willing and eager to espouse the cause of one people as the other, and all the people as well as the one, and we shall be content. There is a perfect whistling language used by the aborigines of the Canary Islands, and the people can communicate with each other over long distances. A stranger wandering over the islands is frequently surprised to hear from a hilltop the sound of loud whistling, which is quickly repeated on the next hill, and so is carried from summit to summit, until it dies away in the distance. Dr. John W. Hoffman, professor of agriculture in the state industrial college of Florida, is the one noted negro scientist of the world. He has been chosen to membership in the Massachusetts horticultural society, the Boston mycological society, the New York zoological society, and the Royal agricultural society of England. He is also a fellow of the American geographical society and of the Royal microscopical society of England. In order to help the restoration of stolen dogs a French society has made arrangements to tattoo a number on the ear of every dog or cat presented at the society's establishment. The process, it is claimed, will be painless, and as a register of all pets tattooed will be kept, owners will always be able to establish identity by reference to the number of the animal's ear and the testimony of the society's books. The most costly war of all time was the civil war of 1861-65 in the United States. That war cost the Northern States a total of 6,200 million dollars, while the South spent more than 2,000 million in addition. And this does not consider the enormous expense of the pensions which have been paid for the last thirty-five years. Next in cost to the war of the rebellion was the Franco-Prussian war of 1870. It cost, in round numbers, 2,500 millions of dollars. Australia is a rich continent, so rich that no one knows how rich it is. It is now one of the great gold producers of the world. It produced more last year than the United States, and the surface has not been scratched. The greater part of the country has never been prospected. Vast areas have never been explored, and new mines are being discovered every day. In Victoria was the first gold excitement, and to-day 800,000 ounces and more of gold are still annually produced. Southern California, where Nature's freaks are so varied, is probably the only country which can furnish a spot of sufficient size and smoothness to make the sailing of a boat on wheels possible. This is the dry lake in the Mojave desert, in Kern county, about 100 miles from Los Angeles, a tract of land nine miles long by seven wide, with a surface smooth as a floor, hard as adamant and without a sign of vegetation except in one small place near the center, which might be called an island.

Twenty-five years practice—seven in Brooklyn—will show you that he can do all he tells of. Can tell you what business is best for you and where. Can tell you how to win speedy marriage with one you love. How to be successful in all you doings, in short that is best to do. Her succeeds when all others fail. Can help and satisfy or no pay.

Rich, Happy and Successful in all their undertakings, while those who neglect his advice are still laboring against poverty and adversity. Through his perfect knowledge of chemistry he can impart to you a secret that will overcome your enemies and win friends. His aid and advice have often been beneficial, the result has always been the securing of spoils in marriage and all your wishes. In love affairs he has. He has the secret of winning the affections of the opposite sex. It is the curse of Spiritualism that in all large cities there are a class of men and women who claim powers they do not possess. They neither gifts, credentials nor references. Surely, people are not so wanting in sense as to throw them into the air one away on such. DR.

"BROOKLYN, June 3, 1892.—This is to certify I came to New York from Albany. I was a stranger in a strange city out of work and out of money. I had no luck in anything I undertook. What to do I did not know. A friend advised me to go and see Dr. Shea. I did; he told me the cause of all my trouble; he took me in and treated me like a brother. Through him I got a good position that veryreek. I had been to others; they took my money and I did. I would bless the day I first met Dr. Shea. I would advise all in bad luck, sick or in trouble, to go to him at once. Sincerely, ALBERT AYERS. 237 Atlantic avenue." "BROOKLYN, Aug. 18, 1961"--This is to certify that my husband had gone away and been absent two years. I mourned for him night and day. I gave him up as dead. Hearing of the wonderful things DR. SHEA was doing, I resolved to consult him. He told me my husband was alive and well and where he was; told me he would come home and when. To my joy all of it came true. He is home now; came back like one from the dead. I also wish to say that this month I lost the sum of $24. I hope you will be most insane. I went to DR. SHEA and told me I would find my money and to my interest. I did find it as he told me. I thank God to be a man so gifted in our midst that can help and tell them what to do. Sinceverly, MARY MILLER.

A Row Between Officers on Duty at Cavite. Manila, May 16.—An unhappy situation has developed at the headquarters of marines at Cavite. Col. Henry C. Cochrane was recently ordered home and Lieut. Col. Goodrell, formerly commander under Col. Cochrane at Olongapo, was ordered to relieve him. When Goodrell arrived to succeed Col. Cochrane the two officers had an altercation which resulted in Goodrell denouncing alleged acts of Col. Cochrane in connection with the Olongapo command. Col. Cochrane reported to Rear Admiral Kempff that Goodrell was intoxicated, and that night he arrested him, ostensibly on the authority of Rear Admiral Kempff. The latter disclaimed having given such an order and reported the situation to Washington, with the result that Goodrell remains in custody and Lieut. Col. Kelton has been placed in command at Cavite, relieving Col. Cochrane. All are now awaiting the result of a court of inquiry. Previous to this incident Col. Cochrane had imprisoned Maj. and Assistant Quartermaster Prince for alleged disobedience in refusing to honor requisitions, but Prince was unanimously vindicated by the court and continues as assistant quartermaster. Beveridge Starts for Russia. Indianapolis, May 16.—United States Senator Beveridge, of Indiana, who is in New York City, will sail for Russia to-day to study commercial conditions there.

Senator Beveridge believes that the United States can secure the immense bulk of Russia's foreign trade and that Russian and American relations should grow more intimate. He will be absent until October. Another Campaign Ahead. London, May 16.—The Pretoria correspondent of the Times says: "In another fortnight the South African winter will have arrived; and, unless the Boers are prevented from moving north to the bush veldt and hostilities are ended, there will be another spell of severe campaigning, together with five months of comparative peace in the two colonies, to be broken by a recrudescence of guerilla operations all over the country, when the spring rains enable the enemy to operate on the high veldt."

Recognizing the fact that there are many SO-CALLED hair-growers and hair-straighteners now on the market, and knowing to a certainty that many of these are frauds pure and simple, we wish to make a straight-forward, honest statement to the colored race through this great paper. In the year 1871 our late secretary, Mrs. S. M. Moore, through a fortunate circumstance, acquired the receipt for OZONO. It was not offered for sale or purchase to any extent until 1875, when it was put upon the market and met with marked success. After a thorough test by the colored people of that time it was pronounced an honest, legitimate remedy, true to all that was claimed for it, and worthy in every respect of the confidence of every member of the colored race, because they found it to cause the hair to grow long and straight, soft and fine, and as beautiful as an April morning. Now, whenever a genuine article appears upon the market there are always a number of people who imitate and make capital out of the merits of other people's goods. Seeing our marked success, numerous firms have entered the market, offering hair-growers and hair-straighteners, many of which are worthless, causing the hair to fall out and doing great damage to the hair and scalp, and the colored people are buying these spurious compounds, which are filled with animal fats, and do the hair more harm than good. To these let us sound a warning—be careful what you use on your hair. Do not be deceived by flaring advertisements and big words. Buy the King of all Hair-Tonics OZONO. which is sold with an iron-clad guarantee to do all that is claimed for it, or we will forfeit $50.00. Now, we ask you a plain question—would we absolutely agree to forfeit $50.00 if you are dissatisfied with our preparations, if they were not true to all we claim for them? We have advertised for several years under this guarantee, and we are glad to say that every one who has used Ozono has been satisfied in every respect. 20,000 people are to-day using our preparations, and every purchaser recommends Ozona as the King of all Hair Tonics. Ozono will positively take the Kinks out of Knotty, Kinky, Harsh, Curly, Refractory, Troublesome Hair. It will make short, harsh hair long and straight. It will cure your head of all itching, worrying scalp diseases. Itch, Eczema, Dandruff, and Scurf can not live after Ozono has been applied. It will stop your hair from falling out. It will restore gray hair to its natural color, making the hair long and soft. Now, right here, let us make a statement. Many firms are advertising remedies to straighten hair, but when they send the preparation they tell you to use hot irons. Friends, do not use hot irons; they will burn up the life of the hair, and cause it to drop out. Ozono straightens without any outside assistance. Nothing but Ozono is necessary, and the hair stays straight forever. You can stop the use at any time. The good effects on the hair are seen in a day or two after the first application. The price of Ozone is 50c. a bottle—4 boxes do the work. We make this liberal offer, which is good at any time: Cut out this coupon and send to us, enclosing with it the sum of One Dollar, and we will forward to you four large boxes of Ozone and one large bottle of Electrical Skin Refiner, which makes black skin bright, rough skin soft and pliant, and cures all skin diseases. Also removes all facial imperfections, and actually removes small-pox pits. We will also include one fancy jar of our Electrical Skin Food—Nature's great beautifier—removes wrinkles, moth patches, freckles, and all facial blemishes; makes the o. look young and the young look younger. We will also include one package of our celebrated Scalp Soap, which is absolutely GHEMICALLY PURE, and no soap but a pure soap should ever A. CLAIRVOYANT. MRS. MARTH, the world-renowned, and highly celebrated business and test TRANCE CLAIRVOYANT, reveals everything. No imposition. Can be consulted on all affairs of life. Business, Love and Marriage a specialty. Every mystery revealed, also of absent, deceased and living friends. Removes all trouble and estrangements, unites the separated and causes speedy marriages. $1,000 challenge to any medium who can exceed her in her startling revelations of the past, present and future events of one's life. Remember, she will not for any price flatter you; you may rest assured you will gain facts without nonsense. She can be consulted upon all affairs of Life, Love, Courtship, Marriage, Friends, the future, future fun, future life. She is very accurate in describing missing friends, enemies, etc. Her advice upon sickness, change in business, journeys, lawsuits, contested wills, divorce and speculation is valuable and reliable. She reads your destiny—good or bad; she withholds nothing. MRS. MARTH, born with a double veil, is a seventh daughter, tells your entire life—past present and future—in a DEAD TRANCE; has the power of any two clairvoyants you ever met. She tells whether your present sweet-heart will be true to you and if he will marry you; if you have no sweetheart, she will tell you when you will have, and his name, business and date of acquaintance. Clairvoyantly ALL YOUR FUTURE will be written in an honest, clear and plain manner, and in a dead trance, which would know the success of their husbands and children; young ladies should know everything about their sweethearts and intended husband. Do not keep company, marry or go into business until you know all; do not let silly religious scruples prevent your consulting. Macau is the only one in the world who can tell you the FULL NAME of your future husband, with age and date of marriage, and tells whether the one you love is true or false. Reader, do you ever notice that some people seem to have good luck all the time, and no matter what they do they seem to prosper, while others, yourself may-be, have such a hard time to get alicing, and no matter how hard they try, they find at the end of the year they are no better off than when they started. This is because they have not consulted the right Medium, while the successful people in all probabilities, have been to one of the genuine Mediums and obtained advice. If you are unsuccessful in business, have bad luck, things go wrong with you, then you should consult Mrs. Marth. She will tell you what your trouble is, as she understands the spells that she has spent years helping distressed persons and has brought thousands to success. For advice by letter $1.00.

RE pees weet At LSE AL Jom Does eres ‘ j Why Dinah Felt So Bad. Not long ago a lieutenant in the navy was ordered away on a_three years’ cruise. The order had been dreaded for weeks, and when it came the young wife, who was to be left in a-Brooklyn flat with a baby and a colored servant, was in despair. She controlled’ her sorrow very well, however, until the actual mo- ment of parting came, and then she wept as though her Seart would break. The cruiser was to leave the mavy yard early next morning, and the lieutenant had gone to report for duty. In the midst of her lamentations the young wife heard a sniffing and sobbing in the dining-room, and upor glancing through the door she saw Dinah, the colored maid, rocking her body to and fro in a chair and weep- ing violently. | “Why, D-D-Dinah, what's _ the m-matter?” cried the mistress; “you ‘seem to t-t-take Mr. Blank’s depart- ‘ure as much to heart as I d-do.” | “Deed I doesn’t, Mis’ Blank; ‘deed I doesn’t!” sobbed Dinah. “What am. ‘boderin’ dis chile am de fac’ dat a eullud gemman friend o’ mine am ‘gwine sail hisse’f on dst same ole | aeniaah!** Everybody Happy.

The house of Walter Baker & Co., whose manufactures of cocoa and chocolate have become familiar in the mouth as household words, was es- tablished one hundred and twenty- one years ago (1780) on the Nepon- set River in the old town of Dorches- ter, a suburb of Boston. From the little wooden mill, “by the rude bridge that arched the flood,” where the enterprise was first started, there has grown up the largest industrial establishment of the kind in the world. It might be said that, while other manufacturers come and go, Walter Baker & Co. go on forever. What is the secret of their great success? It is a very simple one. They have won and held the confi- dence of the great and constantly in- creasing body of consumers by al- ways maintaining the highest stand- ard in the quality of their cocoa and chocolate preparations, and selling them at the lowest price for which unadulterated articles of good qual- ity can be put upon the market. They welcome honest competition; but they feel justified in denouncing in the strongest terms the fraudulent meth- ods by which inferior preparations are palmed off on customers who ask for and suppose they are getting the genuine articles, The best grocers refuse to handle such goods,not alone for the reason that, in the long run, it doesn’t pay to do it, but because their sense of fair dealing will not permit them to aid in the sale of goods that defraud their customers and injure honest manufacturers. Every package of the goods made by the Walter Baker Company bears the well-known trade-mark “La Belle Chocolatiere,” and their place of man- ufacture “Dorchester, Mass.” House- keepers are advised to examine their purchases, and make sure that other goods have not been substituted.

Estimated Cost to the Citizens of Bos- ton of Keeping Watch on Two Rat Holes the Other Day. | This is a story of a rat and two holes in the ground. The holes were very smal holes, just big enough to let two rats into the cellar of the Old South meeting house, rey prob- ‘ably more than big enoughfto let them, wiser and leaner rats, out again, says the Boston Evening Tran- script. These two holes, with the intermit- tent assistance of the rat, entertained the good citizens of Boston at_ the rate of 2,000 an hour for an indefinite period in the middle of one day re- cently. It is easy enough to reckon. During the show there were from 30 ‘to 35 people standing in choice posi- tions along the Milk and Washington ‘street railings of the fence about the ‘tiny yard of the Old South meeting shouse—a constantly changing crowd ‘that renewed itself every minute. Now in this crowd were all kinds ‘of persons, from the office boy at three dollars a week to the broker at $300. Everyone watched his min- ute before he went about his busi- ness; for some the monetary loss was only the fraction of a cent; for oth- ers it mounted up in the dollars. A low and conservative estimate of the average monetary value of these peo- ple is 20 cents an hour, Thirty peo- ple standing for one minute are equal ‘to one person standing for half an hour. But the entertainment extend- ed over many minutes. An hour of it for 2,000 people was paid for by Bos- ton employes in $60 worth of time. What did this $60 crowd of 2,000 persons see for its money? Most of the people two holes in the ground; some of them the bright, beady eyes and the whiskered nose of a rat. The poor fellow was probably trying to get away to some less hallowed, but more fruitful surroundings, when the first observing eye saw him and by looking collected the audience. He lay low for many long minutes, so many that the whole crowd about the fence was in utter ignorance of what it was watching; but still the crowd hung on, looking at the holes, or gazing up at the sparrows which twittered in and out of their nests in the close ivy growth on the wall. Every time the rat looked out one or two saw him, and then everybody devoted his attention to the holes again. And neither rats nor holes can have known how much they were costing the employers all over Bos- Diets WHAT WE HEAR FROM ASSINI- BOIA, WESTERN CANADA. “Don't Think of Coming, But Come.” ‘To the Editor: The above is the emphatic man- ner in which a friend in York- ‘ton writes to a friend near St. Paul, ‘Minnesota, and it is pretty nearly right, too, when the advantages ‘that Western Canatla offer to those seeking homes, The Assiniboia dis- trict is one of the best. The writer from whose letter we quote goes on to say? “John, if you miss this chance you are foolish, for you ean get out cheap- er when there are so many coming, and I would not tell you to come if I ‘thought you could not do well, and if you don’t come in the spring you will have to go away back, for you do not want to think that there is no one liv- ing out here but us. I saw nicer build- ings out here than I ever saw before, and if the country was no good what would they want them for? John, if you sold everything you have and come out here you would be worth more than ever you were before, and if you can bring your team, you can get anything you want on tick, and when they do that with strangers they are not afraid they can’t make enough to pay for it. I saw as nice wheat as I ever saw in my life and if they could not grow grain what would the flour mill be for, and it cost $20,000.” Now this was what Mr. Thomas Fitzpatrick, of Yorkton, Assiniboia, Western Canada, wrote to a friend. ‘There will be opened up this summer new districts in Saskatchewan and Assiniboia, at low prices, particulars of which can be had of any agent of the Government of the Dominion of Canada, whose advertisement appears elsewhere in the columns of your pa- per.

Miss Rose Cullen, President Young Woman's Club, of Butte, Mont., writes from 921 Galena street, as follows: « Peruna has many friends in Butte. I cannot say too much in praise of it. While finishing school I became very nervous and exhausted from over-study. I was weak and sick, and could neither eat, sleep, nor enjoy life. A couple of bottles of Peruna put new life in me. I find that having it in the house and taking a dose off and on keeps me in fine health. «A large number of my friends place Peruna at the head of all i Dies 08 tees i ee: INDIVIDUAL TREATMENT for obstinate chronic diseases can be secured at a comparatively small cost by addressing the Interstate Physicians League. i 2 ‘This association is composed of prominent and experienced specialists in caronte senses The services of leading specialists im our line are in this manner procurable.

HEARD, Hempstead, ‘Texas, writes: “We have moved recently, and I must have lifted something that was too heavy for me in straightening things ap, for I had such a backache and could hardly stand on my feet at all. Beside, L was so tired all the time. My face was spotted and I was very thin. I took one bottle of Peruna and was soon real well. When I feel tired and all run down I take Peruna and feel all right before I finish one bot- tle. I know it is a wonderful medicine, and both myself and husband praise Peruna. “There has been a great deal of sick- ness through this part of the country, but, thanks to Peruna, which we use freely, our own family has escaped with almost no sickness at all. “Could you but see our baby Ruby (to whom we gave Peruna for bowel trouble), you would see from her robust looks that you need no better advertisement in this little town. She is so fat and rosy, is nearly five years old now, and is a great believer in Peruna.”—Mrs, G. W. Heard. Given Up to Die—All Doctors Fatled—It Proved to be Catarrh of Stomach and Was Cured by Peruna. W. A. Mitchell, dealer in general merchandise, of Martin, Ga., writes: “I wrote you some time ago con- cerning my wife's case. She had tried all of the best doctors, and we got to where we thought all they d:d was against her. She weighed about 190 pounds when she was in good health. When she commenced with our family physician in April, 1898, she weighed about 130, but kept going down all the time. She went to Atlanta, Ga., and took treatment, but it did her no good, Then she went to Harmony Grove, Ga., and took treatment from the best physician there for three months. She kept going down under his treat- ment, although he was considered the best physician in the county. She went down from 130 pounds to 68, and ‘we saw she could not live long. She ‘was a skeleton. We consulted an old physician who told her to use Peruna, She gradually improved and got stronger. She has gained 38 pounds sinee she has taken Peruna, and is gaining every day, and does her own housework. | “She was well known when she was so low, and now everybody wants to Jenaw what cured her. She had |in- digestion and catarrh of the stomath. ‘It is as good for children as for grown people. We haven't had ‘to have a docs tor for one of our children since 1898.” =W. A. Mitchell. Tf you do not derive prompt and sat- isfactory results from the use of Peruna, write at once to Dr. Hayman, giving a full statement of your case and he will be pleased to give you his valuable advice gratis.
