A Peculiar Case

On February 16, 1892, The Pe-ru-na Drug
Manufacturing Company received the fol
lowing letter from r. Walter Brady, Cas-
cade, Ark:
81 take pleasure in recommending your
medicines. The benefit l have derived
from the use of your remedies could not be
bought for any amount of money. When l
was about five years old had a dong spell
of typhoid fever and pneumonia. After l
got well took the running at the ears, and
for fourteen years I was almost an invalid.
1t was so continual and so offensive that 1
excluded myself from all society. I could
DO nothing. was unfit for manual labor, and
l had almost come to the conclusion that it
would be better if 1 were dead My father
consulted several doctors. They said Had
an abscess in my head. l tried several
kinds of medicines, but they were Of no
avail; so L gave it up and thought ~ might
be that would outgrow it. Aftef had
borne 1t for fourteen years l yeceiyed a
pamphlet froh DR.. S. B. Hartman, entitled
The Ills of Lie. I had givenFp all hope
Of ever being cared, but would have tried
anything. l wrote to DR.. Hartman to know
what he would charge for liking my case
On the insurasee y wrote me
that ! could cure mysef After
was entirely cured. lsam now as active,
stout and hearty as ahg young man could
wish to be. The world cauld not buy my
fortune. I recommenh toaal as the best
medicine sold"
When chronic catAfTh masses up the
eustachian tubes intd the maid Idle ear it sets
up an inflammation whichEis liable to
terminate in suppur4tion or the formation
of matter. The matter accunulates and
presses on the mend ana tympani, produc-
ing earache, and in Pmsny cases ruptures
tho ear-drum, when the matter escapes out
- Ill,
running at the ears. Running ears, if neg
lected, not only result in deafness, but may
cause death. In long-standing cases the
hearing will likely be impaired, owing to
injury of the delicate parts of the ear 1t
is not always that chronic catarrh of the
middle ear produces running ears, but often
a dryness of the mucous lining, which gives
rise TO cracking or swapping sounds, and in
some cases peculiar pressure or full feel
ing inside the ear.
In recent cases. of not more than two
years duration, Fortuna, taken as directed
on the bottle. will effect cure in a few
weeks or months. The cure is FASTENED by
gradually increasing the dose recommended
on the bottle to a double dose. But cases
like the above, where the discharge from
the ear is of long standing, and especially
II it be Of fetid Odor, La-cu-pia should be
taken according to the directions on the la
bel until the system is thoroughly cleansed,
after which the Pe-ru-na will complete the
cure. There need be no failures to obtain
a cure in a single case A cure is within
reach Of all.
