A Little Common Sense
ABOUT MALARIA-W- AT OLD CASES
OF AGUE SHOULD KNOW.

You have had fever and ague; or
pehaps, have had dumb ague. in
which there are no distinct chills. At
any rate, you have malaria in your
system, which makes you miserable
in the latter summer months and fall.
You have doctored mnch. Quinine
you hav taken till your ears ring,
arsenic till your nerves culver, and
strychnia till your jaws are stiff. Still
the malaria hangs about. You don't
feel good little bit Miserable! that's
the only word that describes it.
Chilly feelings. hot flashes, cold feet
and legs, coated tongue, bad taste,
offensive breath, poor digestion and
appetite-all these ard more. TONES
fail: nervines are useless, and liver
medicines a waste of time and money.
But Pe-ru-na will cure you-cure
YOU completely-make you feel as
good as new. And you will stay
cured too. Pe-ru-na contains no
quinine to injure the brain, no arsenic
to destroy the stomach, no strychnia
to impair the nerves. 1t is a natural,
wholesome; neyer-failing nerve tonic,
blood purifier and invigorator of the
whole system.
Send for free copy Of Aurora a
treatise on malarial diseases and other
affections Of summer. Sent postpaid
by the Pe-ru-na Drug Manufacturing
Company, Columbus, Ohio.
