Proof From All Sections That Pe-ru-na
Cures Catarrh Wherever Located.
Peruna Not a cure-AII.

Peruna is not a "cure-all''; it cures
just one disease-catarrh. But since ca
tarrh is able to fasten itself within the
different organs Of the body, SO it is that
Peruna cures affections of these organs.
But we insist that Peruna cures one
disease only. We claim that Peruna is
the only internal, scientific remedy for
eatarrh yet devised. We claim that
catarrh is a systemic disease; that is to
says, it invades the whole system We
claim that Peruna is a systemic remedy;
that is to say, it eradicates catarrh
from the system. Catarrh is not a local
disease; Peruna IS not a local remedy.
Since cata1rh inYades the system. only
a systemic remedy can reach it. This is,
in brief. our claim in assigning to the
disease catarrh-our remedy, Per1na.
Booker T. Washington. President. of
Tuskegee College. Tuskegee, Ala, says:
I have used one bottle of Peruna and
I can truthfully say that 1 have never
taken any medicine that has improved
me as much as Peruna."
There is no medicine that can take its
place. Address The Peruna Medicine

FIRE AT CUDAHY'S.
Believed to Have Been Started
by Friends of Kidnapers.

Omaha, Neb.. Jan. IA small blaze
occurred in the basement of the f. A
Cudahy house early last night. The
fire was insignificant in money loss. The
threats received by Mr.. Cudahy through
the mail since the abduction of his son
several weeks ago are the basis Of a be-
lief that the fire was incendiary.
The policeman who has been stationed
at the Cudahy mansion ever since the
kidnaping. positively refuses torelate any
of the incidents of the fire. The record of
the fire chief is merely spontaneous
combustion" and fire out in fifteen
minutes" The members of the neigh
boring fire company which was first on
the scene say they knew nothing of the
cause Of the blaze and that it was prac-
ticalIy out when they arrived. The fire
was in the basement and one of the SER
wants. a female says it was caused by
the lighting of a lamp and throwing
down of the match.

Miss Jennie Johnson. Vice
President Chicago Teachers
Federation, 311S Lake Park
avenue, Chicago, Ill, writes:
Among the differentreme-
dies I have tried when in need
Of a tonic none have helped
me more than Peruna. I find
it especially helpful in cases
of catarrh of the stomach; it
restores the functions of ma
ture, induces sleep and builds
up the entire system
CataTrh of the pelvic organs
is the bane of womankind-
Most cases of backache are
caused by catarrh of the kid
neys. Peruna is just the
medicine for catarrh of the
kidneys. It stimulates the
kidneys to excrete from the
blood the accommodating poi
son. It gives vigor to the
hearts action and digestive
system. Peruna should be
used in all cases Of catarrh of
the kidneys.

Mr.. +. +. Bracket. 8 Sable
street, Medford. Mass, says.
81 have been treating myself
for catarrh for about twenty
four years. During that time
] have used many different
kinds of medicine. but since
using your medicines i ind
them far superior IN every
respect. The tonic effect OF
Peruna On me Is truly Won
derful. Ny wife uses and
recommends Peruna. IF. T.
Bracket.
Few stop to realize in how
many ways catarrh can effect
the body. Every organ, every
duct, every passage. every
opening of the human body Is
liable to catarrh. Peruna Is
an internal. systemic catarrn
remedy, and acts benedcially
on all Of the mucous mem
branes of the human body.
Consequently it is equally ef-
fective to cure catarrh In any
organ.
