INTERMITTENT FEVER.
A Brief Synopsis CT Medical Leo
by DR.. Hartman at the Surgical
Hotel, Columbus, Ohio

Malaria is poison generated by
decaying vegetable matter, especially
prevalent in the hot months of late
summer and early fall. a sharp frost
generally stops its ravages. IL may
be taken in the food, drink or air. A
large dose of the malarial poison pro-
duces what is known rs chills and
fever or fever and ague. The chills
may occur every day, every second
day, or every third, or ever fourth
day.
Large doses of quinine in many
cases will break up the chills and re-
store the patient to health, but more
than half Of the cases quinine fails to
cure, oreven benefit. 1t is not only the
uncertainty in which quinine operates
to cure chills and fever which makes
this drug Objectionable, but the injury
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 depended 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 in wineglassful every
two hours for four doses during the
intermission or remission, followed by
II teaspoonful every hour until the
symptoms cease, and then u table
spoonful every two hours until the
cure is permanent. No other medi-
cine whatever is required. Any
medicine i'm this disease is better re-
ceived by the stomach during the re-
mission than during the hot stage. 1t
is seldom that a second chill occurs
after this treatment is begun, but the
above treatment should be repeated
after each chill, if any do occur. Pc
ru-na is the surest and safest anti
periodic, anti-pyretic in existence, and
there is no need for single failure in
the use of it if it is used with persist
ence and judgment.
But malaria is not by any means al
ways SO pronounced in its symptoms.
1t often will poster II person for
months without making him sick
abed, but making him genuinely mis-
cradle. Creeping rigors, coated
tongue, appetite changeable, cold,
sweaty hands, and many indescrib-
able sensations of genuinely disagree
able kinds. Melancholy feelings, "a
discouraged, listless state of mind,
mental depression and confusion
of the mind, surely indicate the
presence of malaria. This form
is called malarial biliousness.
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 particle of malarial 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 APP
petite, clears the befogged senses,
and brings back the hopeful state of
mind which malaria is sure to destroy.
In all forms of irregular malaria
like the above which are unaccom-
panied by distinct chill, Pe-ru-na
should be taken exactly as directed
on liable 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 sys-
tenn is not deranged in the slightest
particular by tne drug. Pe-fu-na
greatly stimulates the nervous system
to resist the malarial poison,
and at the same time gradually
eliminates the poison itself from
the system, which quinine or
similar preparations can not do. In
old cases of malaria, where the victim
has gone the rounds of all kinds of
treatment, has hopefully swallowed
everything recommended for the
chills, and still continues to have
them at the slightest exposure to
cold, wet, fatigue, Pe-ru-na demon
strates its superiority over all other
medicines by its permanently curing
all such cases.
