to Be a Myth.
Special to The Scranton Tribune.
Susquehanna, Nov. 11 A swindler,
who represents himself as being con
nected with the "Universal Mercantile

parties throughout this section. His

each county, a membership feo of from
$23 upwards being exacted. Ho Is well
equipped with documents, and is pro
posesslng In appearance, with a glib
tongue.
In some places the agent ho appoint
ed refused to pay but 15 of his assess
ment, proposing a dedeuctlon of the
remaining $20 from the first money
collected. Not hearing from their em
ployer, after a lapse of somo time, a
Kirkwood agent employed a gentleman
who was to visit Montreal, to investi
gate the matter.

quarters in tho city, it was escertalntd
that the association was a myth, and
that many had been victimized.

A. C LOCKHAUT, WEST HENRIETTA, N. Y.
A. C. Lockhart, West Henrietta, N.
Y., box 58, In a recent letter to Dr.
Hartman, Columbus, O., says: "About
llfteen years ago I commenced to be
ailing and consulted a physician. Ho
pronounced my trouble a species of
dyspepsia, and advised me, after ho
had treated me about six months, to
got a leave of absence from my busi
ness and bo into the country. 1 did
so and got temporary relief. I went
back to work again, but was taken
with very distressing pains in my
stomach.
"I seldom had-a passage of the bow
els naturally. I consulted nnother phy
sician with no better results.. The
disease kept growing on me 'until I
had exhausted the ability of sixteen
of Rochester's best physicians. The
last physician recommended me to
give up my work and go south, after
he had treated mo for one year.
"I was given a thorough examina
tion with the X-ray. They could not
even determine what my trouble was.
Some of your testimonials in tho Roch
ester papers ."corned to me worthy of
consideration, nnd I made up my mind
to try a bottle of Pe-ru-na. Before
the bottle was half gone I noticed a
change for the better. I nm now on
the fifth bottle and have not nn ache
or pain anywhere. My bowels move
regularly every day, and I hnve taken
on eighteen Bounds of flesh. I haw
recommended Pe-ru-na to a great
many, nnd they recommend It very
highly. I have told several people that
if they would take a bottle of 'Pe-ru-na.
and could then candidly sav that It
had not benefited them, I would piy
for the medicine."

Mr. Will lilddlnger, of Harrison,
Ohio, wns cured of catarrh by Pe-ru-na.
In a recent letter he says: "I am glad
to Inform you that Pe-ru-na has cured
mo of catarrh of the stomach and
bowels. I feel better now than I have
for several years. I cheerfully recom
mend it to nnyone suffering with ca
tarrh, for I know It Is all right. I also
am very thankful to you for your kind
advice. You surely have been very
kind to me, always answering my let
ters promptly, and sparing no time or
trouble to tell me what was best for
me. I shall recommend your medlclno
to anyone that I hear of who has ca
tarrh of any kind."
The following letter from Congress
man Rotkin speaks for Itself:
House of Representatives,
Washington, D. C.
Dr. S. B. Hartman, Columbus, O.:
My Dear Doctor It gives me pleas
ure to certify to the excellent curative
qualities of your
medicines Pe-ru-na
and Man-a-lln. I
have been afflicted
more or less for a
quarter of a century
with catarrh of the
stomach and consti
pation. A residence
in Washington has
Increased these
troubles. A few
bottles of your medi
cine have clven m
nlmost complete re
lief, nnd I nm snro
thnt .1 rnntlniintlnn
of them will effect J- D. Botkln.
a permanent cure. Pe-ru-na Is surely
a wonderful remedy for catarrhal af
fections. J. D. Botkln.
This Is a ense of Catarrh of the stom
ach which had run for twenty-five
years, according to his statement, and
Pe-ru-na has at once come to his re
lief, promptly accomplishing for him
more benefit than he had been able
to find In all other remedies during a
quarter of a century. It stands to
reason thnt a man of wealth and In
fluence like a Congressman of the great
United States has left no ordinary
means untried and no stone unturned
to find a cure. If such cures as these
do not verify the claim not only that
dyspepsia Is duo to catarrh of the
stomach, but also that Pe-ru-na will
cure catarrh of the stomach, It Is Im
possible to Imagine how any evidence
could do so.
In catarrh of the stomach, as well as
In catarrh of anv other part of the
body, Pe-ru-na Is the remedy. As ha
been often said, Jf Pe-ru-na will cure
catarrh of one part, it will cure ca
tarrh of any other part of the body.
Catarrh Is catarrh wherever "located,
and the remedv that will cure It anv
where will cure It everywhere. In
speaking of the many cures Pe-ru-na
has made In cases of catarrh of the
stomach, Dr. Hartman savs: "Now
the only reason I can possibly Imagine
why I nm moro successful In treating
dyspepsia than many others, is because
I recornlze the disease as being ca
tarrh of the stomach. I Immediately
begin treatment for catarrh as It I
were treating the same disease In any
other organ. The result Is a permanent
cure. People who have been victims
of dyspepsia for five, ten, fifteen, twen
ty, even twenty-five venrs. find prompt
relief, nnd after a thorough course of
Ltreatment nlmost Invariably experience
fn permanent cure."

$200 Demanded Which Was Prompt
ly Refuse:! Tho Arrest Follows.
Looks Mo- a Like Persecution, Not
ProsecutU .1 Are Blval Clothiers
tho Cause More Behind This Ar
rest Than Appears on the Surface.
Chief ItoblinB and Detective Molr
called on tho manager of the great
Bale which Is Rolrg on at 428 Lacka
wanna avenue with a warrant for Ills
arrest In refusing to pny $200 as a li
cense which was recently passed in
council for a transient dealer. This tho
manager refused to pay, as he is not a
transient, but a permanent merchant.
The manager furnished ball and fho
case will go for tho court to decide,
but why wns this arrest made? Theso
people are doing a land otilco business,
being crowded dally, while their would
be competitors aie laying Idle and ure
looking on. Itlvnl clothiers, It Is un
derstood, are at the back of It Of
course we don't blame them, if they
would only meet competition In a busl-nc-s-Iilto
manner, but they cannot
drive this concern out of town. Tho
manugor Is now more determined than
ever to sell the stock and these prices
will do It. It does not take an X-rays
to see why such action wns taken
against them, ns they nre selling goods
for less than rival dealers can buy
for. Look every item over nnd come
to this great money-saving sale.
