From the New Orleans Times Democrat.
A lady residing at 400 st. Louis street,
New Orleans, has been an intense sufferer
from what seemed to all other physicians
an incurable liberation of the leg. For
/ five long years of agony the ulcers were
slowly eating holes deep down to the
bone. Night after night, on passing her
house, could be heard loud screams and
cries, denoting fearful suffering. The
rasping, tearing pain was almost unen-
durable, and it was no wonder she would
sometimes give way to the promptings Of
her despair. She could not walk, had no
sleep, no rest, no appetite worn out.
without hope.
She heard of DR.. Hartman, at the St.
| Charles Hotel. Hcwas consulted. He
ridiculed the idea of incurability. He
prescribed PERUNA for her just five
weeks ago, and yesterday she walked to
his office; all the sores are healed she
is we'll and happy. While she withholds
her name, any doubling are invited to

Miss Maggie Martin, Of this city, has
been ill and confined to her house for sew

give her relief. She took PERUNA, and,

she is now up and about again. Mr.. SIM

week. He buys in gross lots.
A. A. Adams, of Waverly Ohio, writes:
CT am having good trade on your
medicine, PERUNA."
James Wyatt, of Steubenville, Ohio,
writes: III have taken half dozen bot
ties of your PERUNA, and find it is doing
me more good than anything l ever used"
Gr;fen s. Beam, Powhattan Point, O.,
writes: "Your medicines are having a big
run, especially PERUNA."
Mr.. Frederick Bearnan, of McComb
City, Miss, had chronic catarrh very
badly for many years. The disease final
ly passed up the eustachian tube into the
middle ear, and had almost destroyed his
hearing. He has been taking PERUNA
but for short time, and his catarrh is
very much better, and he hears again as
well as any one.
PERUNA will cure any disease,

New YORK, Aug "A fire broke out in
