One woman has dyspepsia, another
bronchitis, another Bright's disease,
another liver complaint, another con-
sumption, another female complaint.
These women would be very much sur
prised to hear that they are all suffer
ing with chronic catarrh. But it is so,
nevertheless.
Each one Of these troubles and a great
many more are simply catarrh-that is,
chronic Inflammation of the mucous
lining of whichever organ is affected.
Any internal remedy that will cure ca
tarrh in one location will cure it in any
other. This is why Peruna has be-
come SO justly famous in the cure of
female diseases. 1t cures catarrh
wherever located. Its cures remain.
Peruna does not palliate-it cures.

u-oIEad more than a hundred miles
IN order TO see the senator from his

time and the clerk informed the Wis
