Washington, D. C., says tho following In regard to Peruna:
'I have used Peruna for nervous dyspepsia for the last three weeks. I
can cordially recommend it to any one suffering1 from a similar com
plaint; especially do I feel pleased to speak a good word for it in this
p.titicular because dyspepsia or indigestion is quite too common a mal
ady among Americans. It has distinctly benefited me, restoring me to
a normal condition of good health when I was utterly incapacitated by a
disorder so easily cured by a few doses of really good medicine."

regularly will be cured. My druggist
told me lots of people come In and call
for the medicine that cured me."
S. B. Coates, Muncle, Ind., 1332 East
Washington street, writes: "I have
Just recovered from a very bad case of
dyspepsia and ovvo my recovery to Pe
runa. I have been troubled with dys
pepsia for five years. Doctors did me
little or no good. One bottle of Peru
na gave me relief and after using two
bottles the dyspepsia has nil disap
peared. I can cat and sleep and feel
like a new man."
Mr. II. D. Carew, Brockton, Mass ,
1046 Main street, writes: "About ten
ton years ago I was greatly distressed
by dyspepsia, and took no comfort day
or night. I tried everything that phy
sicians prescribed with no relief what
soever. A friend Insisted on my us
ing Peruna. It worked wonders and
entirely cured mo of the disagreeable
disease. I cannot speak too highly of
Peruna."
The symptoms of catarrhal dyspepsia
are coated tongue, pain or heavy feel
ing In the stomach, sour stomach,
belching of gas, dizzy head, sometimes
headache despondent feelings, loss of
appetite, palpitation of heart and Irreg
ularity of the bowels.
For this condition Peruna Is found
to bo an admirable remedy. In all
caps It brings prompt relief to tho
painful symptoms, and In a large per
cent of the cases It makes a perman
ent euro Feruna soothes tho Inflamed
mucous surface and thus strikes nt
the root of tho disease.
Mr Ell Lefevro, Jr., of New Hudson,
Oakland county, Mich., Box E2, writes:
"I had been
troubled with ca
tarrh for a num
ber of years, and
had been taking
medicine for It,
but they did me
no good. In read
ing one of Dr.
Hartman's books
entitled "Winter
Catarrh," I dis
covered that Pe
runa was good
for catanh. Af
ter I had taken
only three bottles of Peruna I was
cured of the catarrh. I now advise
everybody troubled with catarrh to
take Dr. Hartman's Peruna, as It Is a
sure cure for catarrh.
'Trlends to whom I lecommended
Peruna, tell me that it Is also good for
headache, dizziness, and pain In the
stomach."
In cases where the inflammation has
been so severe and continued as to
produce extreme Irritability of the
stomach, the remedy may be taken In
small doses nt first, diluted In water,
but as soon as the Improvement la suf
ficient to permit the whole dose to be
token undiluted, It Is a better way and
the cure Is much more rapid.
Feiunn is also a spring medicine
which at once removes the cause of
all affections peculiar to the spring
season by purifying the blood of all
contamination and invigorating the
whole system.

THE MARKETS.
Wall Street Review.
New York, May IS The Block market con
tended successfully against the marked depression
of the early dealings and showed increasing
fctreiiRth as the day advanced harly losses were
all retrieved and the close was fairly buojant
with a burst of buting oidcrs in volume and
urgency eNcceding that for a long time past.
Very notable net gains are shown by a number
of the spcilaltlcs and irdustriais, while the rail
roads generally are from a fraction to oer two
points higher, Sugar and Tobacco were both
sold down sharply, but they met support of a
character which has been lacking for several
dij a past. An unwieldlv short interest has been
formed and prices, ci-pecijlly in Tobacco In
the course of its recent severe decline and when
the stock began to move upwards the demand
from the bears became precipitate. The ac
grcsslu strength deelopcd in some of the hew
ork city stocks added to the confusion of the
heirs Urookljn union gis inoced upwards P'4
points, and Consolidated l,a.s 6)4, to a loel far
aboc that touched bj this stock for many
months past. Kven the steel industries were
bought and moved upwards generally over tho
point. The bears abandoned their efforts to
keep down prices and rushed to cotcr all through
the list, making the buojint close. Owing to
the failure of last week's money market to re
flect the placing of the large loan to the Tenn
slan!a Itailroad cempanj said to amount to
$1(1,000,000 it was expected that this item would
be reflected in this weilc's loan account of Iho
Innks, but the continued ease of monev did not
display a loin expansion. Total sales, -ii,100
