New VIENNA, CLINTON Co.: @.
DR.. S. B. Hartman & Co.-Gents:-I
take pleasure in testifying to your
medicines. have used about one bot
tie and a half, and can say am a new
man. Have had the catarrh about
twenty years. Before I knew what it
was it had settled on my lungs and
breast, but can now say I am we'll.
Was in the army, could get no medicine
that would relieve me. Yours truly,
W. D. 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 that it will so quickly cure a case
of long standing us the above. Hence
it is that so many patients fail in find
ing a cure because of their unwilling
ness to continue treatment long enough.
Many people who have had chronic ca
tarrh for five, ten, and even fifteen
years, will follow treatment for few
weeks, and then, because they are not
cured, give up in despair and try some
thing else. These patients never fol-
low any one treatment long enough to
test it's merits, and consequently never
find a cure. 1t is a wellknown law of
disease 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 q host
of remedies which produce temporary
relief only. The unthinlling masses
expect to find some remedy which will
cure them in Il few days, and to take
advantage of this small hope many
compounds which have instant but
transient effect have been devised. The
people try these catarrh cures one after
another, but disappointment is the in
variable result, until very many sin
cerely believe that no cure is possible.
CATARRH IS A sYsTEE1C DISEASE,
and therefore requires persistent inter
nal treatment, sometimes for many
months before permanent cure is eff
fected. The mucous lining of the cav
tiles of the throat, head, lungs, etc.,
are made up of a network of minute
blood vessels called capillaries. The
capillaries are very small elastic tubes,
which, in all cases of chronic catarrh,
are congested or bulged out with blood
so long that the elasticity of the tubes
are entirely destroyed. The nerves
which supply these capillaries with vi
tality are called the "vasa-motor
nerves. Any medicine to reach the
real difficulty and exert the slightest
curative action in any case of catarrh
must operate directly on the vasa-
motor system of nerves. AS soon as
these nerves become strengthened and
stimulated by the action of proper
remedy they restore to the capillary
vessels Of the various mucous mem
branes Of the body their normal elias
ITCHY. Then, and only then, will the
catarrh be permanently cured. Thus
it will be seen that catarrh is not a
blood disease, as many suppose, but
rather a disease of the mucous blood
vessels. This explains why it is that
so many excellent blood medicines
utterly fail to cure catarrh.
Colds, winter coughs, bronchitis,
sore throat and pleurisy are all ca
tarrhal affections, and consequently
are quickly durable by Pe-ru-na. Each
bottle of Pe-ru-na is accompanied by
full directions for use, and is kept by
most druggists. Get your druggist to
order it for you if he does not already
keep it.
