 Mrs. Eliza Heinxle, 106 East Main St., Columbus. Ohio. writes:
 About a year ago I contracted c vio. lent cold, which settled on my lungs, and for four months I ran down very rapidly, coughing up quantities of bloody mucous and frequently hemorrhages from the lungs. I was on the verge of the grave. My husband and my friends had given me up. Some one, however, who had tried your Peruna advised me to use 1t. As a last hope I bought a bottle, and. finding immediate relief from its use, continued taking 1t. My cough left me and had no more hemorrhages, and as now as we'll as I ever was in my life. thankfully attribute my present good health, ard, in fact. my living at all. to the good effect of Peruna.

Alton. Va. June {, 1900. ''The Peruna Medicine Co, Columbus, O. :
 My wife was very much run down and out of sorts in every way and as she has consumption in her family we were very much worried She was weak, nervous, and had no appetite at all.
 Finally I happened to be at my fa- thers store, s. A. Birch, Coresville, Alb County, Va, and noticed your medicine he had there for sale. I got a bottle and read the printed matter on it and told my wife that I thought 1t would prob ably not do any harm to try 1t. She. said if it did not taste badly she would try 1t.
 "So we brought a bottle of 1t home and within a week she commenced to eat and now she is hungry all the time and not half the medicine has been taken. We both agree that it beats any medi- cine to bring on an appetite and to get the nerves in good shape that we have ever had anything to do with.
 'T have not the slightest doubt but that your medicine has saved her from a long spell of sickness, if nothing more. All my family had begun to be uneasy. but, of course she did not know 1t. and have only just told her of it since she has improved so much. I had no idea it would do half what it has and don't think there is another medicine made that will begin to compare with it."- W. E. Birch, Fruit Grower. Alton. Alb County. Va.

 This medicine has saved a great many patients after all hope had hed and earthly assistance seemed vain. In ad- vanced cases where the strength is rap idly falling and the cough trouble some two ounces of rock candy added to each bottle of Peruna before using is advisable, and a teaspeonful every hour, or. if the patient prefers tablespoonful 
 Tn cases where the patient is very weak a small dose should be taken to begin with, gradually increasing to the doses recommended above. In the first stages of consumption, before the dis ease Is fully developed Peruna should be taken as directed on the bottle.
 Pe-ru-na Checks. the Cough.
 Steps the diarrhoea, if there is any. increases the strength, produces sound sleep in most cases, and consequently lessens the night sweats; in short, it is the most perfect medicine to meet all the distressing symptoms sof consump- tion. When taking Peruna there is no need for stimulants or opium or nervines of any kind. for all the symptoms for which these are ordinarily used are ad- mirably met by this most excellent medi- cine.

This Much is Sure:

That most cases of genuine consumption are due to the extension of chronic ca- tarrhal infiammations to the lungs from the throat and bronchial tubes. and that chronic inflammation may begin in the lungs as the result of serous exudations into the air cells, caused by catarrh. These cases certainly need no germ the ory to explain their existence.
 However, too little is known as yet about this subject to allow any conscien- tious person to affirm or deny the truth of the existence of a specific tubercular bacillus.
 The acute form of this disease Is known as quick consumption, and the chronic form as creeping or catarrhal consumption. There Is no essential diff ference in them. but the acute form is much more incurable than the chronic.
 "The cough, which Is nearly always one of the earliest symptoms, is a loose cough, with more or less abundant ex- pectoration, which at first is mucus. and will float on water. but as the dis ,ase develops, becomes partly pus which ran be detected by splitting in clear wa ter, when a portion of it will sink slowly to the bottom. This kind of sputa gets more abundant as the disease advances. The cough Is worse on first lying down at night on getting up in the morning and after a full meal.

A Great Many Cases are Cured.


 The case described in the accompany. of many others who have escaped cer- tain death by the timely and proper use of Peruna.
 As to the cause of consumption, Dr. Hartman. in a recent lecture on con sumption, said
 T consider chronic catarrh by far the greatest and most frequent cause of con- sumption.
 This is by far the greatest and most Srequept cause of all. Specialists who are the best authority on this subject at 4he present time. insist that all but the 7rst causes above given are merely pre- disposing causes while the real exciting cause is chronic catarrh.
 So thoroughly am I convinced of this fact that even when heredity the first cause) is present, I invariably examine the threat and fauces for chronic catarrh and I have yet the first case to see where catarrh was not present I sincerely be- lieve that if every case of chronic ca tarrh was timely and properly treated that even heredity would not be suf- foient to develop this terrible disease
 "The existence of tubercles in tn elung of every case of consumption is no longer held to be true by the greater number of medical authorities. It is my opinion that consumption may be infiamma ton of the parenchyma of the lung. and needs no special explanation to account for its existence.
 "I am we'll aware of the tendency of later pathologists to explain the causa- tion of consumption (and other diseases) bv the presence of specific organisms or he ,,ilIi which sets up the disturbance in +he lungs known as consumption ] have given this subject much careful studv and am quite familiar with the nractical results obtained by a number of expert microscopists who make the study of bacteria speciality. and 1t isl
