There is No Remedy just as Good as Peruna.

A great many catarrh remedies are
advertised. One can secretly pick up a
medical journal or a newspaper without
seeing a dozen or more remedies recon-
mended for catarrh. 1t is no wonder
that many people are confused and un-
able to decide which of these many ca
tarrh remedies are the best.
Thus it is a multitude of men and
women are persuaded to try some ca
tarrh remedy which they think is just
as good as Peruna. We are receiving
thousands of letters all the time from
people who have made this mistake
Not only do they fail to receive any
benefit, but precious time is wasted,
and sometimes positive harm is done
Peruna has many imitators. but no real
rivals. There is no other remedy for
catarrh just as good as Peruna- Let
no friend or neighbor persuade you to
try anything else first. Everything de-
ponds upon getting the right remedy
Nothing can be safely substituted for
Peruna-
We would therefore caution all peo-
pie against accepting these substitutes.
Insist upon having Peruna- There is
no other internal remedy for catarrh
that will take the place of Peruna- AL
