Of course my narrative concerning Mrs, Eberleln, of Pittsburg, who was rescued from apparent death by Ph- ru-na, has excited & good deal of dis- cussion and comment. One critic has | offered the following solution. He says that the reason Pe-ru-na cured Mrs, Eberlein at such a stage of the disease is explained as follows: She was probably very weak, She became unable to expectorate. The consequence was huge accumulations of mucus and phlegm gathered in the lungs. On account of her weakness she was unable to expel it. It was | | slowly strangling her to death. | Pe-ru-na stimulated her, enabled her to cough up and spit out the accumulated phlegm. This explains why she was cured. There was no miracle about it. Nothing wonderful cither. To all of which I say, ves, of course. That may be the explafiation. And vet it remains true that without the Pe-rd-na she would have died. It remains true that I got there just in time to save her life. *The doctors had given her up to die. She was gasping for breath, unconscious, in short, dving. However it is plained, the Pe-ru-na saved her life. Of course it did. I do met believe in miracles myself. I believe there is a natural explana- tion for everything. Pe-ru-na helped Mrs, Eberlein to expel from her lungs the accumulated expectoration, and thus saved her life. Good. - I presume Mrs. Eberlein is just as thankful that she is allve with one planation as with another, and I am 1st as thankful that I was able to cure her, whatever the explanation may De.

Drive Them Off With Olive Tablets. A pimply face will not embarras: you much longer if you get a package | of Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets. The pimples will vanish after you have taken the tablets a few nights. Nothing ever cleansed the blood, the bowels and the liver like Olive Tablets, Olive Tablets are the only successful substitute for calomel — they oil the bowels; there's mever any sickness or pain after taking them. Olive Tablets do all that calomel does and just as effectively, but their| action is gentle and safe instead of se- vere and irritating. No one who takes Olive Tablets i ever cursed with “a dark brown taste, a bad breath, a dull, listless, “no §ood" feeling, constipation, torpid llver, bad disposition or pimply face. Olive Tablets are made of pure vege- | table compounds mixed with olive oll. ! Dr. Edwards spent years among pa- | tients afflicted with liver and bowel| complaints, and Olive Tablets are the immensely’ effective result Try them. Take one nightly for a week.
