CAUGHT BY THE GRIP-
RELEASED BY PE-RU-NA.
La Grippe Is Epidemic Catarrh.
T ui
n*
IE disease now known as ‘grip’ !
naed to be called ‘influenza.’
It very closely resembles a cold, but is )
aaore tenacious in its hold U{>on the j
system and produces more profound dis- .
tarhanccs.
Grip is in reality epidemic catarrh.
When it once begins it spreads over the
country very rapidly.
People do not catch the grip from each
other, hut each one catches it from the
atmosphere.
“Most Effective Medicine Ever Tried
for La Grippe.’’
Robt. L. Madison, A. M., Principal of
Oullowhee High School, Puiuter, N. C.,
m chairman of the Jackson County
Board of Education.
He is a writer of occasional verse and
has contributed to a number of leading
papers and magazines,--reIigiou8, edu
cational and secular.
In speaking of Peruna, Mr. Madison
*nys:
“I am hardly ever without Peruna in
my home. It is the most effective medi
cine that I have ever tried for la grippe.
“It also cured my wife of nasal ca
tarrh. Her condition at one time was
euch that she could not at night breathe
rough her nostrils.
“Inconsequence, an inflamed ooudi-
iton of the throat was brought about,
getting worse and worse and yieldui-'
*• no remedy until JVru''n was tried.”
Healthy Mucous Membranes.
Those who are fortunate enough t > 1
have perfectly healthy mucous mem
branes ordii arily do not catch the grip.
The mucous membranes lining the |
•ose, throat and lungs, when iu a
normal state, are an effectual barrier
against the invasion of grip.
But, if there happens to be the slight
est catarrhal derangement of the
mucous incinliram -, then the victim be-
•omes an ear h r proy to the grip.
This in part explains why some peo
ple get the g ip, wh ile others do not.
The rational thing to do is to keep the
system free from catarrh, lu att rnpt-
mgtodothis most people have found
Peruna to 1m> in\ aluable.

extreme that a reaction must ensue.
'irst-class dressmakers insist that
daits around the hips must be fitted
with exceding nicety, which is an ar-
"ment against ready-made skirts.
Some prominent modistes are using
the center plaits at back and front,
which improves “the hang” and gives
additional sweep to the lower edge. . , ..

Spring Jackets.
Tim independent jackets shows no
special novelty. Varieties of the
Donv coat and the Eton are upper
most. A smart spring jacket has
military frogs across the front, an
ornamentation which alw'ays imparts
a certain dashing air. A pretty bo'e
ro jacket is cut all in one. the sleeves
very full and failing to the elbow in
er skirt
Trimmings.
Simple tucks are seen on the larg
er proportion of new voiles, with per
haps a narrow fanck braid on the up
per one. or an embroidered band in
jacket—a style esp<M-ially becoming
to sknder figures.
Another smart jacket is trimmed
with double loops of large cord cover
ed with silk, foui loops being placed
together, two on each side of a double
used for travelling, and when a et#-
ish top coat is desired, the "PrinflB
Chap” mav he highly recommenduf.
Drooping Brims Popular in Spring
Millinery.
Consequently tho mushroom simps

fusion of white or purple lilacs, witfc
a single large crimson rose anf
abundant foliage by way of contrast;
th« result is fascinating. White chip
is most in demand for these fl<rwe»-
covered hats, the under brim iinei
with black taffeta, a stitched fol#
finishing the edge. Small toques and
turbans are less expensive and mor*
practical, and are trimmed with roam

upright loops around a'crown, or in
a cluster at the left side, give a chi«
effect to both large or small hate.

During an epidemic of grip Peruua
should be used. The doses recom
mended on the bottle are suilicient.
After the grip has once been acquired.
Dr. JI; rtman recommends the u-e of
peruna in teaspoonful doses every hour
during Hu acute stage, after which the
dlrcctio. on the bottle should

“Two years ago I Uegan using Peruna
