standing was the occasion of Peruna be-
ing introduced to the inhabitants of
Evansville, Wis. From that time to this
there has been a great demand for Pc
runa in this vicinity and hundreds of
cases have been cured.
1t is in this manner that Peruna
spreads from town to town and from
state to state. No sort Of advertising
could have given Peruna the reputation
it has. The secret of it's success is that
1t makes cures. It cures old cases of
catarrh where other remedies have
failed. This ought to make any remedy
popular.
Mr.. c. R. Harden, of Evansville, Wis,
writes the following letter:

write to certify what Peruna has done

WILLARD, KY.-The news of the

very striking instance of the wonderful
curative powers of Peruna. This esti-
mable lady had been an invalid from

twenty years. No wonder her many
friends are enthusiastic over her recov-

mercies Of God and your medicine that I

al hope to live twenty years yet, and
if Peruna helps me in the future as it
has in the past, don't know why
can't. The druggists say Peruna is one
of the best selling medicines they have
in stock. &C. r. HARDEN.
Peruna can be relied upon to cure
slight colds and coughs and other ca
tarrhal ailments with promptness that
is unequaled by any other remedy.
If cold has settled in any portion of
the body and produced catarrh, it is gen
orally thought by people that they must
suffer on year after year without any
hope of cure. This is not true, however,
Peruna cures such cases. Thousands Of
testimonials that can never be used
attest this fact.

this subject should address DR.. Hartman,
