* I FAITHFUL HOUSEWIVES OF THE UNITED STATES ! ,H|| " ES JS smijh Send Grateful Tributes to Dr. Hartman For Benefits Received From Pe-ru-na. WILL SARRATT IMPLICATED BY THE JURY. - m W:- /M m frSScw: 1 Pe-ru-na lableU. Some people prefer to take tablets, rather than to take medicine In a fluid form. Snch people can obtain Pernna tablets, which represent the medicinal ingredients of Peruna. Each tablet is equiva lent to one average dose of Pernna. Mrs. T. J. Ballard* Pryor Creek, Indian Territory, writes: “I keep free from my old stomach trouble, feel no catarrhal symptoms at all. I am able to do my work, eat and drink what I want, and am re joiced to know that I found a sure cure in your valuable medi cines.” ■y/.w, MRS. D. C. NOLAN. Ho More Throat Trouble. Mrs. D. C. Jfolan, Gem, Kea., writes: “I have no Bore throat trouble, thanks %0 Peruna. It is the only medicine I care to have. I Always feel safe when I have II in the house. “I have used Peruna for Bine y< ars and I onght to know about it. Peruna has kelped me a great many times, and I shall praise it to •very one of my friends.” Ever since Peruna was in troduced to the public thirty years ago. the housewife has been an ever f ait h ful friend to Peruna. She It is that has seen the practical benefits of the use of Pernna in the family. When the baby has snuffles or cold she gives a few doses of Peruna, instead of ti 11- tng the system with the doctor’s drags. When the school children haveconghs •r colds she again resorts to Pernna. When any member of the family is afflicted with catarrh, either in its acute form or chronic, Peruna is resorted to. In a large number of minor ailments ■he finds Peruna a never-failing remedy. ▲11 Ibis has won the confidence of the housewife in Pernna, which cannot be OMily shaken by the statements of people who know nothing of Pernna, having never had any personal experi- ■aoe in its use. wz mm: 9jk Dyspepala at <1 Constlpattoa.

I did not expect to see you ever look so well again.’ I tell them I would not look so well if it had not been for Peruna. “Peruna saved my life. I recommend Peruna wherever I am, and when any of our folks are sick I give them Peruna with success. “I thank Dr. Hartman, and may h« live many years more to go on with the good work. Tongue cannot express the gratitude that my husband, child ren and I owe to T h\ Hartman for the kinduess he ha* shown toward mo dur ing my sickness. “I want the public to know what Peruna and Dr. H: i *t:Tian have done for me.” An astonishing number of families use Peruna continuously for the various petty ailments to which the family is liable.
