Responsible People. EOPLE occupying positions of high responsibility and trust are always very busy people. They have little or no time to devote to side issues, Itis therefore very rare that such peo- ple are willing to write testimonials for anything. Then again there is a natural difli- dence in giving public endorsement to any commercial enterprise on the part of people who are much before the public. Rare Endorsements. It is thus that itis very rare that pub- lic officials, like governors, congress- men, consuls, senators, ete., give public endorsement to a proprietary medi- cine, It is therefore a great triumph that Peruna has the unqualified endorse- mentof so many men in official posi- tion. Scores of public officials of national reputation have enthusiastically de- clared in favor of Peruna in public print over and over again, A Startling Fact. There is no w.y to account for such a startling fact as this except that Peruna has extraordinary unusual merit. After all, people high and low, are constituted very much alike, dence in prominent per- sonal friends who have used and endorsed Peruna that I feel justified in assum- ing that it is a valuable rem- edy for catarrh and an ex- cellent general tonic.""— John W. Hoyt. Victoria Flats, Washiagton, D. C. Natural Enthusiasm, When a person has been really helped {in getting rid of some chronic malady, after other things have failed, it is quite natural for enthusiasm to lead people to make a statement of the fact, For great services, gratitude is nat- ural, This is the only way that it can possi- bly be explained why it is thatso many persons prominent in public, diplomatic and social life give testimony for Peruna. Actual Benefit. Peruna promptly relieves. This is the explanation, Catarrh is a disease difficult to relieve. Agreat many of the doctors fail to relieve it. Gratitude Results, A few bottles of Perunacure a chronic malady of many years standing and it is almost impossible to repress the natural feelings of gratitude which spring up.

Will {ts platform contain a frank and cundid statement of the party’s purposes, or will {6 contain simply a eulogy of the party’s past and leave the public in doubt ae to the party’s intentions? When President Roose- velt was elected in 1904, his platform was about as vague and Indefinite as any platform ever written. He was not committed to anything in the way of reform, and his way has been a thorny one because he was accused of attempting things which the people had not instructed him to leason from the pst and instruct its next candidate as to what should be done? It fs not always safe to start @ commander out with sealed instruc- tions. Such a policy may be excuse- able in war, butit is not defensible in the ordinary operation of govern- ment.
