A Brief Synopsis of Medical Lecture by
DR.. Hartman at the Surgical Hotel.
Columbus, Ohio.
Malaria is poison generated by decay
ing vegetable matter, especially prevalent
| in the hot months of late summer and early
fall A sharp frost generally stops its raw
air. A large dose of the malarial poison
produces what is known as chills and fever
| or fever and ague The chills may occur
every day, every second day, or every third,
or even fourth day.
Large doses of quinine in many cases will
break up the chills and restore the patient
to health, but more than half of the cases
quinine fails to cure, or even benefit. 1t is
not only the uncertainty in which quinine
operates to cure chills and fever which
makes this drug Objectionable, but the in
jury which this drug is capable of doing to
the nervous system and brain. The remedy
Pe-ru-na, which is by far the most reliable
chill cure to be found, not only can be de-
pended on every time to stop the chills, but
it does no harm to the nerves or brain, even
| though it be taken in very large doses and
repeated long time.
The dose of Pe-ru-na sufficient to break
chills is wineglassful every two hours for
four doses during the intermission or remis-
sion, followed by a tablespoonful every hour
until the symptoms cease, and then table,
spoonful every two hours until the cure is
permanent. No other medicine whatever
is required. Any medicine in this disease
is better received by the stomach during the
remission than during the hot stage. 1t is
seldom that second chill occurs after this
treatment is begun, but the above treatment
should be repeated after each chill, if any
do occur. Pe-ru-na is the surest and safest
anti-periodic, anti-pyretio in existence, and
there is no need for single failure in the
use of it if it is used with persistence and
judgment.
But malaria is not by any means always
so pronounced in its symptoms. It often
viii poster a person for months without
making him sick abed, but making him gen.
timely miserable. Creeping rigors, coated
tongue, appetite changeab1e, cold, sweaty
hands, and many indescribable sensations Of
genuinely disagreeable kinds Melancholy
feelings, discouraged, hstless state Of
mind, mental depression and confusion of
the mind, surely indicate the presence Of
malaria. This form is called malarial bill
iousness. - For this walking malaria"
which neither puts one to bed nor allows
him to work or study, without great effort,
Pe-ru-na is safe, prompt and efficient cure.
A course of Pe-ru-na will entirely cleanse
the system OF every partlcbe or the malarlal
poison. Therefore, if you have any kind of
bad feeling which you attribute to malaria,
by all means follow this treatment. 1t at
once restores the appetite, clears the be-
logged senses, and brings back the hopeful
state of mind which malaria is sure to de-
stroy.
In all forms of irregular malaria like the
above, which are unaccompanied by dis
tinct chill, Pe-ru-na should be taken exact
ly as directed on label of bottle. A person
taking course of treatment with Pe-ru-na
for any malarial affection will find not only
that he will be relieved quicker than with
quinine, but that his system is not deranged
in the slightest particular by the drug.
Pe-ru-na gently stimulates the nervous sys-
tenn to resist the malarial poison, and at the
same time gradually eliminates the poison
itself from the system, which quinine or
similar preparations cannot do. In old
cases of malaria, where the victim has gone
the round of ali kinds of treatment, has
hopefully swallowed everything recon-
mended for the chills, and still continues to
have them at the slightest exposure to cold,
wet or fatigue, Pe-ru-na demonstrates it's
superiority over all other medicines by per-
manently curing all such cases.
