The above map has been carefully
compiled from United States documents
by The Peruna Medicine Company, of
Columbus, Ohio. The figures were taken
from the mortal statistics published by
the government and entirely agree with
the archives kept at The Hartman SAM
tarium.
The map is made in four shades. The
lightest shade shows the states which
have the lowest per cent. of deaths due
to catarrhal diseases. In these states
very close to 42 per cent. Of all deaths in
1890 were due to catarrhal diseases. That
is to say, over four out Of every ten
deaths were from catarrhal affections.
In the States of next darker shade the
per cent. varies from q to 45. In the
next darker shade, As to As per cent. Of
the q hole number of deaths resulted
from catarrhal diseases. In the darkest
shade we have indicated the States in
which over so per cent, or one-half or
more, Of all the deaths were directly
traceable to catarrh as the cause.
This is an appalling state Of affairs.
This HafiOn has got TO confront the fact
that cafarr7 has become hahOHaI
curse. Catarrhal diseases threaten
the life of our people. Over One-haf
of the people suffer from some form or
degree of catarrh. Fully thirfy-fiVe
million people are personally interest
ed in the discovery Of a radical catarrh
cure.

Catarrh is a systemic disease of eli
matte and nervous origin. With Peruna
the nerves become strong and the mu-
cous membranes are consequently
strengthened, thus protecting the person
from the bad effects of a changeable eli
mate. This is why some people do not
have catarrh.
