pounds when she was in good health.
When she commenced with our family
physician in April, 1898, she weighed
about $50, but kept going down all the
time. She went to Atlanta, Ga, and
took treatment, but it did her no good.
Then she went to Harmony Grove, Ca,
and took treatment from the best
physician there for three months.
She kept going down under his treat
ment, although he was considered the
best physician in the county. She
went down from 1870 pounds to 6S, and
we saw she could not live long. She
was skeleton. We consulted an old
physician who told her to use Peruna.
She gradually improved and got
stronger. She has gained SO pounds
since she has taken Peruna. and isl

housework.
'She was well known when she was
so low, and now everybody wants to
