A NEW, STORY DO IOU KNOW WHAT IT IS ? AN OLD COLD

Is Cronic Catarrh, the Wor-t Disease Known.

The first stage of catarrh us commonly called catching cold. It may begin in the head, nose, throat or lungs. In the ma-jority of cases no attention is paid to a cold, therefore nearly half the people have chronic catarrh in some form. To neglect a cold Is to invite catarrh.

The second stage of catarrh ie AMC.

If in the head there is a roaring, cracking in the ears, periodical head ache, and confusion of the senses. if in the nose. discharge sneezing. noisy breathing and bad breath. 1n the throat it produces enlarged tome's hawking sore throat, sore throat, hoarse-ness or weak voice. When the catarrh reaches the bronchial tubes and lungs, it produces cough, pain in the chest, cams toration, night sweats, loss of Seth and shortness of breath.

A cold in the head, which a single bot-tle of Peru-na will cure, soon becomes a case of cronic catarrh, whisti will take many bottles to entirely cure. A. sore throat which one bottle of Pe..ru-na will cure, soon becomes cronic pharyngitis or enlarged tonsels, whisk will require many bottles. A slight cold which, without a yestage of doubt, would soon disappear with the use of Pe ru-na, becomes chronic bronchitis, which requires a presistant use of Pe-nrna for some time. There are a great many cases of consumption each year due directly to a neglect of coughs, colds etc., which, if Pe-ru-na had been kept in the house and used according to directions, would have been prevented

Late Literary Newa.

An old fashioned sea story full of in-terest and adventure, with a strong love motive, is begun by Mr. W. Clark Russell in the January Cosmo-politan. "Outdo," succeeds Froude, Gorse, Lang and other great writers, with an installment of the "Great Passions of History" series, which has been appearing in the Cosmopolitan. A discussion is aroused by Edward W Bok's article on "The Young Man and the Church," which will consume tons of ink before it is settled. Just pre-ceding the famous Charcot's death, he prepared an article for the Cosmopol-itan on Pasteur, to be published after Pasteur's death. But Charcot has died first, and so with the consent of Char-cot's executors, the article is given now. The present "Theatrical Season in New York" is critically considered by Mr. James S. Metcalfe, editor of "Life" and there are stories by Tourgee, Howells, and the famous French writer Francois Coppee.
