THREATENED CONSUMPTION.
A Typical Case of Catarrh Cured
bv Dr.. Hartman's Free Treatment.

A farmers wife had been troubled
from childhood with catarrh. Until
within the last few years, she has not
been treated for it. But it has become
so much aggravated that she consults
her physician. He treats her and she
perseveres faithfully, without avail, for
months. Then she tries a physician
in the city. Although his charges
are exhorbitant, her husband gladly
pays them; but she gets no better
The farmer in despair, sees his wife
growing paler and weaker every day.
A cough sets in, and consumption is
near.
At last they read about Pe-ru-na.
The husband writes to DR.. Hartman
and receives an encouraging and SYM
pathetic answer. They continue cor
respondence all the while she takes
Pe-ru-na, receiving new advice and as
sistance in every letter. Her symp-
tons leave her one by one. Her color
returns. Her cough ceases. At last
she is we'll. In her gladness of heart
she writes to DIR. Hartman, anxious to
have her cure told to others that they
may be saved.
Such is the history of typical testi-
monial used by DR.. Hartman in his
books. One of these books will be
sent free to any address by The Peru

1t is not good policy to overwork, but the
man who looks after his health can stand a
great deal of it. The man who neglects his
health is soon untitled for work. When a

eventually falls victim to consumption.

reasonable amount of overwork. All good
