Dr.. Hartman on catarrh.
THE FALLAcY OF CATARRm CURES.

The fatal mistake which SO many physi-
clans, of all schools, make in the treatment
of catarrh is, that it is regarded as a local
disease and not systematic disease. If the
patient has catarrh of the nose or throat,
sprays or gargles are used; If the catarrh is
in the larynx or bronchial tubes, inhalents
are used; If the catarrh is in the stomach,
medicine is swallowed; if the catarrh is in
the bladder or urethra, injections are resort
ed to; hoping in each case to cure this dis
ease by applying the medicine to the exact
spot where the disease is located.
While it is fact that sprays, inhaleuts,
gargles and injections are often helpful in
the treatment of case of catarrh, they can
never accomplish cure. Catarrh is dis
ease Of the system, which manifests itself
in some mucous membrane, oftenest of the
nose, throat, bronchial tubes or lungs, but
fIequantly of the stomach and bowels, and
again of the urinary and sexual organs A
persistent use of Pe-ru-na according to the
directions OH the bottle will remove the
catarrhal faint from the system, after which
the diseased part wherever located, will
soon recover. That this is the correct
theory of the treatment of catarrh, is amply
proven by the multitude of testimonials that
are constantly pouring in from all parts of
the country.
Catarrh in all stages and varieties, colds,
coughs, bronchitis, la grippe catarrhal dys-
pepsia, all yield, surely and permanently,
to the curative virtues of Pe-ru-na.
John B. Risley, of Merrimac, Wis, writes
July 8, 1889: ~ received in December last
one of DR.. Hartman's Treatise on Catarrh,'
and after a careful perusal of it concluded
to give his remedy a trial,'as was afflicted
with nasal catarrh. ! did so and gained
eleven pounds in weight the first month,
with steady increase in health and vigor
that has been permanent SO far, with but
very little symptom of catarrh left. His
remedies are the only ones have ever found
able to give me any relief"
The following cases need no comment,
save that each one was cured by taking Pc
ru-na simply, without any local treatment
whatever:
FLINT, MICH, March 2, 1891.
DAWSON, MICH.-My wife has suffered
with catarrh and chronic headache. One
bottle of Pe-ru-na was great relief, but
three bottles have coured her SO that she
does her own work without any trouble.
FLINT CITY, MIoH.-l had very hard
cold; could hardly speak; also la grippe.
Took one bottle of Dr. Hartman's Pe-ru-na
and put in one-half pound of rock candy
and found almost immediate relief, and was
well inside of one week.

Pe-ru-na i'll my family-first for my wife in

WINNIE, ARK, July 20, 1880.
DR.. s. B Hartman, Columbus, O.-Dear
Sir: My wife having suffered for twelve
months with what the best medical skill in |
the county, called Bronchitis" and, find |
ing no relief, purchased two bottles of |

JAMES w. HALK.
INDEPENDENCE, Mo. Aug. 1890.
The Peruna Medicine Co.-Gentlemen: |
had seen afflicted Jor fourteen years with |
nervous debility and chronic catarrh. / |
had tried three of our best physicians, but |
failed to get any relief. have taken five |
bottles of Pe-ru-na in connection with Man
a-ln, and feel entirely well, but intend to |
keep taking it for awhile. know that Pc |
ru-na has saved my life.
Yours respectfully,
Mrs. DIcY A. LEWIS.
1t is needless to attempt to give only the
vaguest outline of the wonderful success
which Pe-ru-na has met with in the cure of |
catarrh. This success is entirely due to the
fact that Pe-ru-na eradicates the disease
from the syttem instead of temporarily re-
lieving some disagreeable symptom.
