Of its natural supply Of blood. This sets
up all sorts Of functional irregularities
so common to people who spend much
time indoors. Peruna cures these affec-
tons by regulating the supply of blood
and giving to each part Of the system
exactly that portion Of the blood to
which it is entitled.
By producing natural appetite, cor
recting digestion and regulating the
supply of blood in the system, Peruna
removes the cause of Thousand and one
maladies very common in warm
weather.
TIE fatigue and Lsnguor of hot
weather Is directly due to Impoverished
blood. This condition prepares the
way for the advent of almost any dis
ease. Peruna projects the system
against the ailments of summer by for
fifying 1t wiki a regular supply of the
best blood.
