L wish to add my testimony to the
life-saving value of your most excel

L was sick with indigestion and bow

many kinds of medicine, but grew
worse and weaker all the while.
My son advised me to try Peruna,as
1t was good for so many ailments and
might be beneficial to me. 1 sent for
bottle, and L was so weak that ooull
not sit up in bed. After taking Peruna
for two days 1 was able to sit up and
eat anything that 1 wanted.
