Indigestion and nervousness.
Mr-. Ltnora Bodenhamer, R. F. D. 1,
Box l .K<. Kerru.’syille, North Carolina,
■writes the following lett«r to The
Peruiia Drug Manufacturing Cora-
pany:
“I suffered with stomach trouble and
indigestion for some time, and nothing
that i ate agreed with me.
“1 was very nervous and experienced
a continual feeling of uneasiness and
fear.
*T took medicine from the doctor, but
it did me no good. I found in one of
your Feruna books a description of my
symptoms. I then wrote to Dr. Hart-
mar. lor advice. He said I had catarrh
of t he su mach.
“I nxk Peruna and Manalin and fol
lower his directions and can now say
that. 1 feel as well as I ever did.
“T ht pe that all who are afflicted with
the same symptoms will take Peruna,
as it t as certainly cured me.”
Now Perfectly
Healthy.
Mrs. Magdalena
Winkler, Route 5,
Westminster, Md.,
writes: .
“I thank you very
much for your ad
vice. I can safely
say that Peruna and
Manalin have saved
my life.
“When I wrote to
you the first time,
asking your advice,
my condition was
go poor that I did
not expect to live
through the winter,
but now I am perfectly healthy.
*“T cannot praise your medicine
eijouuli, and I recommend it to other'.”
Catarrh of Stomach.
Mrs. Mary Allen, Route •>, Franklin,
Tenn., writes:
“I am glad to he able to tell you that I
am well of catarrh of the stomach, for
which I am sincerely thankful to you
for your advice. If it had not been for
Peruna I would never have been well.
“I had three physicians. One of tfiorn
told my husband that he could not
cure me.
“I had been sick about nine months
when a friend asked me to try Peruna
i to gratify her; so I commenced taking

For Children’s
Colds.
Mrs. Henry
Martin, La
Motte, la., R.
R.No.1, writes:
“After suffer
ing for some
time with sore eyee I was advised by
a friend to try Peruna, which I did
at once.
“The first bottle relieved me, and
after using four bottles I was entirely
cured.
“I do recommend Peruna to all who
are afflicted with catarrh. 1 have
found it to bo a great remedy also for
coughs and colds of children; a dose
at bedtime will relieve them from
coughing all night. I always keep it on
hand, and recommend it.” .
Catarrh for Seven Years.
i Mrs. T. Freeh, R. R. No. 1, Hickory
Point, Tenn., writes: “1 am happy to
; tell you that I am cured of catarrh. I
have follow ed your good and kind ad-
1 vice faithfully. I bless the day when I
wrote you of my condition, and I will
always praise Peruna. I think it is one
of the grandest medicines on earth.
“Having been afflicted with catarrh
and stomach trouble for seven years,
and after having tried four different
doctors they only relieved me for a little
while. I gave npall hope of being cured.
I only weighed one hundred and thirty
pounds, and was so weak I could hardly
get around the room.
“I was iiuiuo'd to try Peruna, and to
tny grea'.surprise I am now ntii ely w ell.

iMrs.Hettie Green.
The Farmer’s Wife.
Who is in a better position to know than the farmer’s wife herself what
is required in the farmer’s home ? She must meet its troubles, solve its prob
lems, ward off disease, nurse the sick, she must do all these things herself,
and she learns by valuable experience what is best and what is not best.
In numberless farm homes Peruna is relied upon as the family medicine.
Pernna books are consulted in health and disease. Peruna is used as a preven
tive as well as a corrective in disease. *
The wives of the farmers of the United States constitute a solid phalanx
in favor of Peruna. Against this testimony the slanders of a few critics will
n*>t prevail. One sensible mistress of a farm home who has used Peruna
knows more about Peruna than all the magazine critics in tho world.
