It is no longer. a question as to
whether Peruna can be relied on to
cure all such cases. During the many
years in which Peruna has been put to
test in all forms and stages of acute
and chronic catarrh no one year has put
this remedy to greater test than the
past year.
Peruna is the acknowledged catarrh
remedy of the age. DR.. Hartman, the
compounder of Peruna, has written a
book on the phases of catarrh peculiar
to women. entitled, Health and Beau
