Why Is 1t


so sure to produce blood arrangements"
The fact that it is so is known to nearly
everybody. But why it is SO is net SO
clear to many.
Some of the reasons are that the brac-
ing air of winter is a thing of the past.
The enervatinS nearness OF the spr1ng
equinox is felt. The gathering heat OF
the tropics begins to send premonltons
OF its approach. The reaction of lassi-
tude that follows the nerve tension OF
winter insidiously threatens everybody.
Hence, the prevalence of nervous dis
eases, tagging energies, depression OF
spirits, tendency to WEAKNESS and con-
tinuous sense of tiredness.
q'he tonic that restores without stimu-
lating is Peruna. Unlike the bitter
tonics of quinine and strychnia. Peruna
does not key the nerves up to a hlgh
tension but refreshes and restores them
with lasting exhilaration which only
natural strength can bring.
Peruna is not a quick, hashy, tempo
rary prod to the nervous system, but
gentle rejuvena ting tonic that restores
the nervous system to a perfect balance.
Why is it that the blood gets out of
