Senator Restored to Health
Peruna as a Nerve and Catarrh Tonic
~. the Talk of the World.

"ln these days Of all kinds of medicine
1t Is q comfort to know of a remedy
which may be used with unquestioned
beneficial results. Igladly recommend
Peruna as q safe, reliable remedy in
cases of catarrh of the stomach, helpful
IN building up the system worn out with
overwork or age.
"Several Of my friends who have used
Peruna have spoken OF 1t in the highest
terms, and I congratulate you on Its
merits"
Mrs. W. E. Grissom, Henry, Ellis Co,
Texas, writes:
II took Peruna faithfully over two
months, and the result is q thoroughly
renovated system and q strong, buoyant
feeling, to say nothing Of cure Of the
chronic catarrh. Therefore hall avail
myself Of every opportunity to speak Of
Peruna as catarrh cure"
MIR. Harry M.Stevens, Midland Beach,
l.. l., New York, proprietor Of "The
Richmond" Hotel, says OF Peruna:
alt gives me pleasure to testify to the
value Of Peruna. Ihave used it for years
and have found It to be most excellent
family remedy. For colds, catarrh and
similar Ills, 1t Is unsurpassed.v Cor.
daily and gratefully,
II. NJ. Stevens.
Catarrh is q systemic disease, durable
only by systemic treatment. a remedy
that cures catarrh must aim directly at
the depressed nerve centers. This is
what Peruna does. Peruna Immediately
invigorates the nerve-centers which
give vitality to the mucous membranes.
Then catarrh disappears. Then catarrh
is permanently cured.
Peruna cures catarrh wherever To-
Gated. Peruna Is not q guess nor an ex-
pcriment-it is an absolute scientific
certainty. Peruna has no substitutes
no rivals. Insist upon having Peruna.

Hartman, on the subject of ca
farrh in its different phases and
