A CLERGYMAN’S STORY
Came Near Losing His Life—How He Escaped
m:
The (olloirlas
letter was re
ceived by The
Perun* Co, from
Rev. O. W. Rob
erta. R. R. 2. Bos
27. Hartsell. Ala
bama. under date
of April 2. 1904.
which la exactly
nine years aco.
He says: “I take
pleasure* in in
forming you of
what your Pe-
runa has done REV. C*W. ROUXTS.
for me after 2.Bmrr.
three years of Ak.
suffering. I had tried the treatments
•f\sBveral doctors, also home rem
edies. but they failed and all hope
had gone. My friends, like myself,
thought I was in the last stages of
consumption.
“My daughter brought me a bottle
of Parana and plead with me to try
It 1 had got so weak I had lost my
voice, and I thought it no use. That
was in May. 1992. 1 began to take
It, according to directions. 1 wrote
to you, and you gave me your kind
advice.
“I soon felt better, my cough began
to give way. and the expectoration
lessened. 1 have taken fourteen bot
tles. 1 feel well, eat hearty, sleep
soundly, weigh as much as I ever did.
do considerable work on my farm,
and attend to my other business.
My friends seem astonished at my re
covery.
“I wish to thank you for your kind
advice and the books you have sent
me. I shall ever praise your medicine
and hope that you may enjoy a long
life."
It Will be observed that Rev. Roh-
ertd waited two years after he began
to use Peruna. before he wrote the
above letter to The Peruna Co. So
that his apparent recovery could not
possibly have been temporary relief.
In a later letter to The PerunanCo.,
dated September 22. 1909t Rev. Rob
erts says: “I am a great friend of
Peruna. By the use of Dr. Hartman’s
id vice I am here to-day. able to be
arlth my family and attend, to my
>uainew“ v
'We quote from another letter, dated
December 10. 1»0«: “I praise Peruna
to all the sick. The people know
my case, and they praise St also."
In a letter dated November 22.
1209. we quote Rev. Roberts: "Pe-
runa gave me back my life ten
years aso. All my acquaintances
know tliat. I am certainly thankful
to you for your kindness.” -
In a later Setter, dated January 13.
1910, he says: ”1. shall ever in the
future, as in the past, be ready to
speak In praise of Peruna to all suf
ferers. I believe Vny miraculous cure
has been the means of many others
being cured In this county.”
From a letter of September 5. 1911,
we quote a few words: “I am still
among the living. As to Peruna, I
do not feel that I have words to ex
press the faith I have In Its merits.
I feel that Peruna has been the
means, through the kind providence
of God. of prolonging my life for
more than ten years.”
We quote A still later letter. October
31. 1912. He says: “I took a severs
cold three weeks ago. I at once sent
for Peruna. • Have been taking It two
weeks. I am now better. I consider
that Peruna has carried me over a
dozen years of life. I always stand
ready to answer any question In ref
erence to Peruna.”
We quote from his last letter, dated
January 2. 1913: “Dear Friends: I
wish this bright New Tears to ex
press my thanks to. you for your
kindness. Trusting that you may
have a successful and happy year, and
that your medicine may prove a
bussing to many as it has to me. I
am yours as ever. G. W. Roberts.
Hartsell. Alabama. R. F. D. 2, Box
27 *• *
It'la not necessary for us to add
any words to this story. The elo
quence and pathos of these letters
are more convincing than arguments
or affidavits. Who can doubt the
clergyman's story? Who can doubt
that Peruna saved his life? ,
Every home should be provided

Life” sent free by the Peruna Ce,

“In the sixty years I have been in the banking business* I
cave seen great individual fortunes made and swept
away; 1 have seen personal enterprises built on a founda
tion which every human foresight would justify, and 1
have seen them undermined by events entirely beyond
the view of human knowledge. What In the progress of
time, may intervene to help or hinder human, plans is
beyond the ken of any jnan.” Thus spake a man who has
spent more years in the banking business than any other
nan. He was entirely right.. Large fortunes do crum-
b'e and decay. Many large fortunes have been built, up
> s'
by.speculation and taking large risks, and many of them
have been lost in just the same way. But people who
build up large savings bank accounts take no risk and
iave no iossefi.. .You never knew the possesser of a
liaod-sized 7 savings bank account to walk the floor at night
when >e ought to be asleep. If YOU don’t want to walk
the floor, walk into our bank and open a savings bank ac-
