AS a result of the changeable eli

most prevalent and universal diseases
known to man. Nearly one-third of
the people of the United States are
afflicted with catarrh in some of it's
many phases and stages. Add to this
the fact that catarrh rapidly tends to
become fixed or chronic, also the fur
Their fact that it is capable of producing
a great many other diseases, and we

dread disease.
So formidable has catarrh become
that in every city or town of any size
numerous doctors are to be found who
make the treatment of catarrh a spe-
cialty. Of course a great deal of good
is accomplished in this way, but as
yet a comparatively small number of
the people can avail themselves of this
treatment because of the great expense
necessarily attached to it.

To all such people DR.. Hartman's
remedy, Peruna, comes as a great boon.
Not only is it more successful in cur.
ing catarrh than the treatment of the
catarrh specialists, but it is within the
reach of every person in this land.
Peruna can be bought at any drug store,
and is a remedy without equal for
catarrh in all forms, coughs, colds, bron-
chitis, consumption, and all climatic
diseases of winter.
Peruna is not a guess, nor an expert
ment; it is an absolute, scientific GER
tainty. Peruna cures catarrh wherever
located. Peruna has no substitutes
no rivals. Insist upon having Peruna.
Let no one persuade you that some 9TH
er remedy will do nearly as well. There
is no other systemic remedy for catarrh
but Peruna.
