New VIENNA, Clinton Co., o.


DR.. s. B. Hartman & Co.-Gents:
take pleasure in testifying to your
medicines. / have used about one
bottle and half and can say am a
new man. Have had the catarrh
about twenty years. Before knew
what it was it had settled on my
lungs and breast, but can now say |
am well. Was in the army; could get
no medicine that would relieve me.
Yours truly, w. u. WILLIAMS,
Probate Judge OF Clinton County.
While it is a fact that Pe-ru-na can
be relied on to cure chronic catarrh in
all stages and varieties, yet it is not
often tnat it will so quickly cure u
case of long standing as the above.
Hence it is that SO many patients fail
in finding q cure because of their uu-
willingness TO continue treatment
long enough. Many people who have
had chronic catarrh for five, ten, aud
even fifteen years, will follow treat
ment for a few weeks, and then, be-
cause they are not cured, give up in
despair and try something else.
These patients never follow any one
treatment long enough to test its
merits, and consequently never find a
cure. 1t is q well-known law of dis
ease that the longer it has run the
more tenaciously it becomes fastened
to its victim.
The difficulty with which catarrh is
cured has led to the invention of u
host of remedies which produce tenn
porary relief only. The unthinking
masses expect to find some remedy
which will cure them in few days,
and to take advantage of this false
hope many compounds which have
instant but transient effect has beer
devised. The people try these catarrh
cures one after another, but disap'
pointment is the invariable result
until very many sincerely believe
that no cure is possible.
CATARRH IS A SYSTEMIC DISEASE,
and therefore requires persistent in
ternal treatment, sometimes for many
months, before a permanent cure is
effected. The mucous lining of the
cavities of the head, throat, lungs
ETC., are made up of a network OF
minute blood vessels called capil-
laries. The capillaries are very small
elastic tubes, which, in all cases Of
chronic catarrh, are congested OF
bulged with blood SO long that the
elasticity of the tubes are entirely
destroyed The nerves which
supply these capillaries with
vitality are called the "vasa
motorn nerves. Any medicine tC
reach the real difficulty and exert the
slightest curative action in any case
of catarrh must operate directly OF
the vasamotOr system of nerves. Al
soon as these nerves become strength
ened and stimulated by the action o
proper remedy they restore to tn
| capillary vessels OF the various mu
cous membranes of the body thei
normal elasticity. Then, and Onl
then, will the catarrh be permanent
cured. Thus it will he seen that Ca
tarrh is not blood disease, as man
suppose, but rather disease of tn
mucous blood vessels. This explain
why il is that so many excellent bloc,
medicines utterly fail to cure catarrh
Colds, winter coughs, bronchitis
sore throat and pleu isy are all ca
tarrhal affections. and Consequent
are quickly durable by Pe-ru-na
Each bottle of Pe-ru-na is accOmpan
ed by full directions for use, and i
kept by most druggists. Get you
druggist to order it for you if he doe
not already keep it.
