EXTRACTS
FROM A FAMOUS LECTURE ON Ca
TARRHAL DISEASES By DIR. g. b.
HARTMAN, COLUMBUS, OHIO.
Chronic Catarrh, Coughs, Colds, InnusnsA.
La Grippe, and Many Other Common
Affections Fully Explained and
Treatment Given.

The disease known as catarrh In capable
of setting up in the body such variety Of
arrangements that there are large group
of diseases, commonly thought to be dissim-
liar, but which are really different forms Of
the same disease. The different names By
which the catarrhal affections have come 10
be known have the effect Of leading most
people to suppose each one to be an entirely
different disease. To illustrates What II
generally known as "a cold" is really aouts
catarrh Of the sporadic variety. Epidemic
catarrh assumes three distinct phases,
known as influenza, distemper and u
grippe, each one presenting different symP
toms, yet there Is no essential difference h
their nature or successful treatment In.
fammation Of the eyes and middle ear axs
simply catarrh OF the mucous lining sf
these organs. Pharyngitis and laryngiHs
(sore throat) are both catarrh, although the
symptoms produced by them are auits diE
ferent Bronchitis, catarrh OF the bronchial
tubes, and consumption are in . majority II
cases but catarrh Of the lungh DyspspsiA
diarrhos, dysentery, Inflammation II ths
bladder and other pelvic organs are nearly
always due to catarrh Of these parts.
Thus it will be seen that the group Of dis
eases properly included under the head II
catarrh Is q very large and Important one,
and any remedy that so operates on the
system as 10 cure catarrh Of any variety can
be relied upon as Q remedy In all othsr
varieties of the disease. It IL established
beyond all question that Pe-ru-na In by hs
the most celebrated, If not the only specific,
remedy for catarrhal diseases The doss
and times of taking the remedy differ 80
cording to the variety Of catsrrh for which
it is taken.

ful every three hours until the symptoms all
subside, isthe proper treatment In cases
Of la grippe, distemper and induenss, the
dose is a tablespoonful every hour for aduItl
and a corresponding less dose TOR children.
During the night, II the patients are quietly
sleeping, it is not my custom to wake them
to take the medicine; but if restless Pe-ru-ns
should be given regularly the whole twenty
four hours.
In cases Of sore throat, bronchitis and
consumption 1t is better to add two ounces
of rock candy to each bottle before usingj
then take according to directions on the
bottle. This is also the proper way to use
Pe-ru-ns in all cases where q cough Is o
permanent symptom. In cases Of dyspepsia
and diseases of the abdominal and pelvic
organs the directions on the bottle are sufi-
cient. Gases Of chronic catarrh In the head,
throat, bronchial tubes, stomach and pelvic
organs, OF 10, Is, or even 20 years standing
are constantly being cured by the use Of
Pe-ru-na. It has come to be 9 vell-estab-
lished fact that Pe-ru-na will cure catarrh
in any stage or variety where the case il noe
by any organic disease.
A valuable pamphlet of 80 pages, setting
forth in detail the treatment OF catarrh in
every phase of the disease, will be sent free
10 any address by the Peruna Medicine
Company Of Columbus. Ohio. This book
should be in every household, as 1t contains
q great deal of reliable information a. to the
cure and prevention Of all catarrhal and
kindred diseases.
