Never Without Pe=ru=na in My House So Writes Mr. C' Q. ■ Convert, Hot Springs, Arkansas. There Are a Multitude of People in the United States Who Have Been Restored to Health \>vb- ■m y r i By the Use of Pe-ru-na, W/ m ■xr There are a multitude of people in the United State* who have been restored to health by the use of Peruna. There is no use trying to deny this fact. A* a rule, doctors dislike to admit it. There is now and then a courageous doctor who does admit it, how ever. Tn such ca-es Peruna is prescribed by the doctor himself. Even though the doctor suffers pecuniary loss by such a transaction his patient is benefited, which ought to be the doctor’s chief concern. / W e do not claim that doctors generally prescribe Peruna. But we do claim whenever Peruna is in telligently prescribed it rarely disappoints either the doctor or patient. 'mm m 41 -V ill mm m, s' wm m M Mr.C.G.Convers. m . 14 i;;*- i ' -> k James P.

I was troubled with nasal catarrh that had affected my stomach, which troubled me most in the morning. My appetite was poor, and I did not seem to relish my food. Indi gestion bothered me at times, also. I was advised to take Peruna, and I took it as prescribed for a month when my cure was almost complete. Today there is not a trace of catarrh in my system, and I cun say without hesitation that Peruna cured me.” Colds and Stomach Trouble. Mr.C. G. Con vers, Pres. Cold Storage loe and Coal Co., Hot Springs, Ark., writes: “I had been troubled with a very serious case of catarrh fora number of years. Having tried many prescriptions by good physicians, I found myself no better. “On the advice of a friend who had used Peruna with good results 1 purchased a bottle. The results were so good that I continued using it. Have, perhaps, in the last three years used a dozen bottles, which have kept me from the try ing troubles of catarrh. I am never without a bottle of Peruna in my house. “<>no always gets relief from colds and Indiges tion if you have Peruna.” THOS. B. BUTLER, Candidate fo r congress from Thi> District. Thos.
