The Quakers have always been CHI .
actcrized by their untiring care in
relieving the suffering of their own
poor, and are hospitable, sweet-spirited
and gentle people. They universally
wear plain, unobtrusive clothing, not so
much for uniformity, as to escape the
ever-changing fashions in dress.
Their honesty and veracity is well
known. Hence this letter will be read
with interest by all classes.
Could any words be more to the point,
could any evidence be more convincing,
than the above persuasive, direct, sim
cere letter? Systemic catarrh is con-
dition in which chronic catarrh has per-
vaded the whole system. Catarrh first
begins by localizing itself in some one
or more organs of the body, but very
soon it shows tendency to spread to
other organs. If it is not check ed, the
whole system becomes invaded by this
insidious disease.
When catarrh has reached this stage,
of course it has gone beyond the reach
of all local remedies.
Nothing but a systemic remedy can
reach it.
Peruna 10 the only remedy yet devised
to meet such cases.
Peruna eradicates catarrh from the
system.
1t does its work quietly, but surely.
1t cleanses the mucous membranes OF
the whole body.
