DEAR MApAM-It is about that very inn
portan. climacteric period of your life which
is called ''change Of life" that propose to
write few words to you. l have grown
gray in the practice of medicine and during
my long and extensive practice have treat
ed or advised thousands who We're as you
are now. There are no two cases precisely
alike, yet there is sufficient similarity in
them that good description of one gives a
general idea of them all. 1 will attempt to
describe your case by mentioning all the
symptoms usually attending these cases.
The age at which the ''change" begins va
Iies from thirty-eight to forty-eight years,
but the arrangements set up at this time
may continue to the end of life. With some
cases attacks of papitation and throbbing is
a prominent symptom; the attacks of palpit-
alton and short breath becoming so severe as
to produce dangerous sinking spells, some
are frequently mistaken.
The sudden flushing of the face and full
feeling OF the brain, the hot spot on top of
the head, the roaring in the ears, the specks
floating before the eyes, the neuralgia head
ache, are what almost every one in your
dition find themselves afflicted with. A
strange dizziness. numb and prickly sensa-
tions in various parts Of the body, cold feet,
cold hands, hot head, weak stomach. chang
able appetite. belching of gas and sour stom-

with. great many are sure that they
have abdominal tumors, as the muscles of
the abdomen will often contract so as to pro-
duce round. firm masses, which remain
few days or weeks.
In spite of your best efforts, YOU are at
times respondent, nervous and irritable.
Very few people are able to appreciate how
much you suffer, for you look so much bet
ter than you really are. And sleep-that
natural invigorator and nerve tonic-how
little you get of it since your trouble began.
You may have exhausted every device you
ever heard of to produce sleep, and yet you
lie awake night after night, until at last,
completely exhausted, you catch fitful nap
just before day, when you rise, tired and
weak to undertake the duties of the next day.
At times you feel sure that your kidneys are
affected, for the urinary secretiOns are some
times scant and high cOlored and then very
abundant with no color.
1t is quite possible that your case is not
so severe as have described it, or you may
be worse. If you will follow my advice for
short time you will be convinced that you
can be relieved entirely. First, l want you
to put away every bottle of medicine you
have been taking. IL you have been taking
large doses of any narcotic you had better
leave it off gradually.
Begin at once to take Pe-ru-na exactly as
directed on the bottle. Gradually increase
the dose until, at the end of four months,
you are taking just double the quantity di-
rected OH the bottle. If you have bad
spell with your heart or nerves you had bet
ter take wneglassful in hot water (sweet-
ened, it you choose), as 1t will relieve you
quicker than anything else. Pe-ru-na con-
tains no opium or other narcotic, so you
need have 10 fear in using it continuously
lOT any ltDBlu vi Iliiit. DC lditihui w o"hO
it regularly for two or three weeks, and you
will be sure to see that it is beginning to
help you. Keep right on and your appe-
tite will return and digestion he as good as
anyone's. Your sleep will be sound, your
nerves strong and quiet.
If you are constipated get Man-a-lin. and
take only enough of it to procure one passage |
each day.
Eat whatever You choose. Don't eat oat-
meal or graham if you do not like them. No
food that is forced down will do you any |
good. Take walk each day, If possible, |
and do as much work as your strength will |
allow. In conclusion, dear madam, / assure |
you if you follow this advice faithfully you |
will soon be free from your distressing symp- |
toms. Even after you consider yourself |
cured you had better keep Pe-ru-na OH |
hand, for you will be more or less subject to |
the headach or fainting spells, until the elm |
cateric period is fully past, and you will find |
it quick and sure relief. Er
