Some Facts about catarrh.
By DIR. b. S. HARTMAN.

The lining membranes of the nose and
throat benin most exposed to the air are
usually the first to become affected by Ca
tarrh. AS soon as the Catarrh becomes
seated either in the nose or throat it begins
slowly to spread to the other parts. Numer-
Gus passages open into the pharynX Or
upper throat; and, as they are all lined with
the same reucous membrane which lines the
pharynx, the Catarrh can easily find its way
to almost any part of the body. 1t may go
upwards into the middle ear and cause deaf
ness, or into the frontal sinuses and cause
constant frontal headache. The Catarrh
may go downwards through the Gsophagus
into the stomach and cause dyspepsia, or
through the larynx. trachea and bronchial
tubes to the lungs, causing h~oarseness, loss
of voice, chronic cough, bronchitis and
conumptiOn.
Whatever course the Catarrh takes the
disease remains the same, and a remedy
that can be relied on to cure it in one place
can also be relied on to cure it in all places.
Pe-ru-na seeks out at once the deranged
parts and restores the diseased and fabby
mucous membrane to health aud elasticity.
Pe-ru-na is a natural tonic to the capillary
blood vessels, which are weakened or de-
stroyed by Catarrh. Hse are two cases in
which the Catarrh had already reached the
middle ear, producing deafness las it al
ways does):
Mr.. Frederick Bierman, of MaComb
City, Miss, had Chronic Catarrh very
badly for many years. The disease finally
passed up the eustachian tube into the
middle ear and had almost destroyed his
hearigg. He has been taking Pe-ru-na but
for a short time, and his catarrh is very
much better, and he hears again as well as
any one.
Mr.. w. ID. Stokes of Baton Rouge, La,
writes: II have had Chronic Catarrh very
badly, noise in the ears and nearly deaf. ]
used your Pe-ru-na according to directions,
and now am well. Can hear the tick of q
watch ten feet. Your Pe-ru-na is q wonder
full medicine"
The following case illustrates the dread
full condition which Chronic Catarrh of the
throat and head can produce, and the utter
failure of the ordinary treatment to bring
any relief:

Peruna Medicine Col was q sufferer
from Catarrh i'm my head and throat. l
doctorcd with ono of the best physicians in
our place for that terrible disease and found
no relief. But in 1883 l lost my speech,
and was not able to do any kind OF work for
nearly three months. j could neither eat
nor sleep. Peruna did wonders for me and
now ] am in better health than / have been
in ten years. Yours Truly,

No remedy can equal Pe-ru-na in cases
where the Catarrh has already attacked the
lungs, as in the following case:
Mrs. j.. w. Reynolds, of New Lisbon,
Columbiana county, Ohio says she has suf-
fered with Congestion of the Lungs, Catarrh
in the head and was troubled with a bad
cough. She had tried q number oil pbySic-
ians but they all failed to cure her. She
was induced to try Peruna and Immediately
a marked change took place. After using
Peruna her cough ceased and in a short time
her other ailments were cured. She is now
completely restored 10 health and gives all
the credit to Peruna.
Hundreds of testimonials like the above
furnish the most positive proofthat Pe-ru-na
Is o radical cure for catarrh. What Peru
ma has done so many times, is doing every
day. IL will do again.
