After Twenty-Five Years
SUFFERING.

Especial news from Evansville, Wis.1
NASHVILLE, VISA woman
cured Of catarrh of twenty-five years
standing was the occasion Of Peruna be-
ing introduced to the inhabitants of
Evansville, Wis. From that time to this
there has been great demand for Pc
runa in this vicinity and hundreds of
cases have been cured.
It 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
1t has. The secret Of its 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.. G. R. Harden, Of Evansville, Wis,
writes the following letter:
: Dear Doctor Hartman-"I wish to
write to certify what Peruna has done
for me. Tread Of Peruna in the papers,
of what 1t would do for catarrh, and
sent for bottle. This was the first bot
tie Of Peruna that ever came to Evans
