MRS. MINNIE E. MCALLISTER. Light on Female Diseases. What used to be called female disease, by the medical profess'ion is now called pelvic catarrh. It has been found by experience that catarrhal diseases of the pelvic organs are the cause of muost cases of female diseases. Dr. Hartman was among the first of America's greatest physicians to make this discovery. For forty years he has boon treating diseases peculiar to women and long ago he reached the conclusion - that a woman entirely free from ca tarrh al affection of these organs would not be subject to female diseases. He, therefore, began using Peruna for these cases and found it so admirably adapted to their permanent cure that Peruna has now become the most famous remedy for female diseases ever known. Every where the women arc using it u'nd prais ing it. Peruna is not a palliative sim ply; it cures by removing the cause of female diseases. Peruna builds up the nerves and re stores the appetite and digestion. Dr. H artman h as probably cured more women of female ailments than *any other living physician, lHe mnksi these cures simply by using and recommend ing Peruna.

MoAL i3TD, wfeof Judge McAllister di Miin neapolis, Minn., and Ohaplain Loyal Mystid Leglon of Americ, writes: # qsufled ibr yesu with a ili the small of aV Mack and it side. It interfered often with my omestio and social duties and I never supposed that I would be cured, as the doctor's medicine did not seem to help me any. "FortunJiatelya memberof our Order advised me to tiry Peruna and gave it such high p=se that I decMed to try It. Although I started in with little faith, L.felt so much better In a week that I felt encouraged. "I took it faithfully for seven weeks and asn happy indeed to be able to sWy that I am entirely cured. Words fail to express my gratitude. Perfect health once more is the best thing I could wish for, and thanks to Peruna I enjoy. that now."-Minnie E. McAllister. Mrs. Esther M. Milner, DeGraff, Ohio, writes: "I was a terrible sufferer from female weakness and had the headache oontin uously. I was not able to do my house. work for myself and husband. I wrote you and described my condition as near is possible. You recommended Peruna. [ took four bottles and was completely ured. I think Peruna a wonderful nediclne."-Mrs. Esther M. Milner. Congressman Thad. M. Mahon, of Dhambersburg, Pa., writes: "I take pleasure in commenvang your Peruni as a substantial tonic and I good catarrh remedy.f"---T. M. 9lahon. Pe-ru-na Contains No Marcotics. One reason why Peruna has found permanent use in so many homes is that t contains no narcotics of any kind. Peruna is perfectly harmless. It can be ised any length of time withoutacquir ng a drug habit. Pqruna does not pro. luce temporary results. It is perma ment in its effect. As a tonic 'and nerve invigorator Peruna has no equal. It has 1no b$ effect upon the system, tnd gradual eliminates catarrh by re moving the cause of catarrh. There re a multitude of homes where Peruna ias been used off and on for twenty rears. Such a thing could not he possi ble if Peruna contained any drugs of a aarcotic nature. Address Dr. Hartman,- rresident of rhe Hartman Sanitarium, Columbus, hio.
