Prevention of fires Is & part of their duties, and it is to their watchfulness along these lines that many serfous conflagrations are pre- vented. Commissioner Fidgell does not praise State Treasurer George Hall for anything he may have done, and yet it will be re- membered that he has had considerable to ao with the fire department of the state. He has kept Commissioner Ridgell from spending his salary and when he doss get It, it he ever noes, he will have a roll that will help him immensely in his campaign for the democratic nomina« Mr. Ridgell devotes quite a little space in his report to the “arbitrary action of State Treasurer Hall and the way it handicaps this department.” However, the annual loss by fire in 1915 not as heavy as in some previous years, a table showing the loss in the last six years being as follows Commissioner M‘ell blames the fire | Insurance companies a great deal for the I\l\ll!l of fires.

Let’s see first what it should accomplish. Disease usually’ enters the system through the mucous membranes whether contagious, infectious or organic. membranes protect every part the skin does not cover. Hence as long as the membranes are working right, nothing harmful is absorbed. Let the membranes become sore and inflamed, or lack tone, and the first defense is down. When this inflammation becomes chronie, conditions in- vite disease. But these membranes absorb our food and the air we breathe. Both must pass through them to be available. When these membranes are in trouble we have an inflammation, It may be in the stomach, the bowels, the lungs, or the nose and throat. That means constipation, indigestion, coughs and colds. Each one of these further poisons the system with its own toxic product. A good family medicine must counteract these poisons Inflammation of these membranes is catarrh, either acute or chronic. A good medi- cine must therefore be tonic—that is, restore tone—and it must overcome catarrh. When you are really sick, call a physician. Before you reach that stage, take a medi- cine that will relieve the catarrh. Thousands who have got to take Peruna---A Reliable Tonic Its success in relieving catarrhal conditions of the mucous membranes has become a matter of common knowledge. It tones the whole system, at the same time relieving in- flammation. It regulates the digestive apparatus by giving tone to the mem. branes that do the work; it invigorates the breathing apparatus the same way. Digestion and breathing are the portals of health. Xeep them well and you are well. 8o, on its record of 44 years, we say Peruna Is a Good Family Remedy THE PERUNA COMPANY, COLUMBUS, OHIO.
