BACKACHB,
 PE-RU-NA CURES.
q am Perfectly well," Says Mrs. Martin, of Brooklyn. "Pe-
 ru-na Cured Me-"

Mrs. Anna Martin. H Hoyt Street. Brooklyn, N. r., writes:
 "Peruna did so much for me that l feel 1t my duty to recommend 1t to others who may be similarly afflicted. About a year ago my health was completely broken down; had backache, dizziness and irregularities. and life seemed dark indeed We had used Peruna in our home as a tonic and for colds and ca- tarrh and I decided to try 1t for my trouble. In less than three months became regular. my pains had entirely disappeared, and I am now perfectly well."-Mrs. Anna Martin.
 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 Beauty" :" It will be sent free to any address by The Peruna Medicine Co.,. Columbus. Ohio.

THE SOLDIERS POET
 ENDORSES PH-RU-NA.
Says Peruna is the Best Remedy on
 Earth for Catarrh.

Colonel John A. Joyce, well-known throughout the country as the Soldiers poet" Is an ardent friend to Peruna. He speaks of 1t in the following terms in a recent letter from Washington, D. C.:
 Gentlemen: q think there is no bet ter medicine sold than your remedies for catarrh. They have cured me. It would take volume to tell you the good they have done me. Peruna is tine best rem edy on earth for catarrh and l think I have tried nearly all of them. John A. Joyce.
 A. F.. Kidd. Elgin, lll., writes: 'I am 42 years of age and have had catarrh of the head for over half of my life, as a result of scarlet fever, followed by typhoid fever. I got so bad that I was almost constantly coughing and clearing my throat. The catorrr greatly im- paired my eyesight an nearing in one ear. and reduced .-. tight to l1o pounds.
 II tried nearly every catarrh remedy advertised. besides a great many differ ent physicians treatments, all of which failed and the physicians would finally tell me that I could not be cured in this climate; that ought to go to dry climate, etc.
 T had heard and read of Peruna, and finally decided to try 1t two months ago. I have now taken seven bottles. and weigh 172 pounds. Never felt happier or merrier. Feel tip top.''

THE FIR I STAGE OF
 CHRONIC CAPARRH.
A Serious Mistake Which Thousands
 Are Making.

The first stage of catarrh is what Is commonly known as catching cold" It may be in the head. nose. throat or lungs. Its beginning is sometimes so se- we're as to cause a chill and considerable fever, or 1t may be so slight as to not hinder a person from his usual business. In perhaps a majority of cases little or no attention is paid to the first stage of catarrh, and hence it Is that nearly one- half of the people have chronic catarrh in some form.
 To neglect u cold is to invite chronic catarrh. As soon as anyone discovers the first symptoms of catching cold he should at once begin the use of Peruna according to directions on the bottle, and the cold is sure % pass away with out leaving any bad effects.
 Unless this is done the cold is almost sure to end in the second stage of catarrh which is making so many lives miser- able. If Peruna was taken every time one has a cold or cough chronic catarrh would be practically an unknown dis ease.
 Miss Rosa Gerbing, a popular society woman of Crown Point. Ind. writes:
 Last winter took q long drive in the country. and being too thinly clad caught a bad cold which settled on my lungs, and which could not seem to shake off. I had heard a great deal of Peruna for colds and catarrh and bought a bottle to try. I am pleased that I did for 1t brought speedy relief. It only took two bottles, and 1 consider this money well spent
 You have a firm friend in me, and I not only advise It's use to my friends. but have purchased several bottles to give to those without the means to buy and have noticed without exception that 1t has brought about a speedy cure wher- ever 1t has been used. Miss Rosa Gerb- ing.
 Mrs. Howe. 5O7 Wabash Street, St. Paul, Minn.. writes as follows:
 T am only too glad to recommend Peruna. especially to women. It is a sure cure for weaknesses peculiar to cur sex. l have used 1t in my home for years. and would not think of being with out 1t. I always say a good word for your excellent tonic. Peruna."-MrS Howe
 Miss Mary Kemkemer. A Raymier St., Cleveland. Ohio. writes:
 T am glad to advise you of the very satisfactory results I have experienced through the use of Feruna. I contracted a severe cold at an evening party which settled on my lungs most persistently.
 No medicine helped me until mother gave me Peruna. which quickly caused complete change for the better and cured me in three weeks. I have had no bad after-effects nor recurrence of the trouble and am truly grateful to you for your wonderful Peruna. Mary Kemkemer.

Attorney D. Young. Counselor of Au- rora Lodge. No. 6S, of the Mystic Work CTS of the World, writes from 1os South Broadway, Aurora. H., as follows:
 T suffered with catarrh for eight years before l found anything that would help me. I have wasted hundreds of dollars trying to get relief. and never found any until I read what Peruna claimed to do for catarrh. A few bottles cured me completely; 1t not only cured my catarrh but invigorated my whole system until today I feel ten years younger and in complete and perfect health-in fact. a new man, thanks to eruna."-Delancy Young.
 Hon. W. s. Lane. Ordinary Probate Judge) for Wilkes County. Ga., writes from Washington. Ga.. the following letter:
 The Peruna Medicine Co., Columbus. O.:
 Gentlemen-"This is to certify that have used two and one-half bottles of Peruna for a very bad case of catarrh. and am happy to say to you that have been entirely cured and gladly recom- mend Peruna to any one suffering from catarrh in any form. Have also used it in my family with satisfactory results both as a tonic and remedy for catarrh. ' W. s. Lane.
 In some cases catarrh has a tendency to become chronic and 1t not infrequent- ly sets up disease that finally proves fatal Peruna taken in time will pre- vent these cases. To substitute some other remedy means dangerous delay.
 Read the testimonials of these two people that were cured by Peruna. Had the druggist recommended one of these immitations of Peruna. would 1t be SUD- posed for an instant that these two peo- pie would be well today.

Miss Ella NJ Moreland. 5O2 D Street S. E., Washington. D. C., writes:
 ''I am anxious to show my gratitude for what Peruna has done for me. and hope this will reach the eyes of some woman who has suffered as I did For three years I had intense pains regularly every month with cramps and head ache. At such time I was hardly able to be about and felt very weak and worn out. I tried a much advertised remedy but found 1t gave me no relief. when a visitor advised me to try Peruna, telling me how 1t had cured her of a similar trouble l have so often since thanked her for calling my attention to it for it is certainly a blessed medicine for sick women, Almost from the first day I felt better and within five weeks I had added nine pounds to my weight and 1t seemed I never felt better in my life. I have enjoyed the best of health since and gladly endorse Peruna for can thank 1t for my good physical condition. Ella II. Morland.

PERUNA IS INVALUABLE
 AS \ SPRING TONIC.
If You Are Thinking of Getting
 Tonic This Spring Try pe-ru-na.

Are you thinking of getting a spring medicine? Do you feel those old symp- tcms which are so apt to come every spring and remind yon that you need something to purify your blood, or cleanse your system. or tone up your digestion and appetite? Now, If there WIS ever 8 time in yolr life when you needed to use good judgment it is right here and now.
 It is reckless folly. simply because ones blood is out of order, to rush to the nearest drug store and buy the first medicine recommended as blood puri- fer. without stopping to consider what might be the origin of the difficulty, and select a medicine adapted to the par ticular case. If, then, you want to be sure to take the right kind of a spring medicine. observe the following direc- tions:

 Letters From Women.
 Every day we receive letters from wo- men like the following. Women who have tried doctors and failed; women who have tried Peruna and were cured.
 Miss Katie Klein. 6125 Bartmer Ave, St. Louis, Mo, writes:
 "Peruna has done me more good for catarrh than the best doctors could. 1 had catarrh so bad. but after taking Pe- runa it Is entirely gone, and I feel like a different person. Miss Katie Klein.
 Miss Anna Prescott's Letter.
 Miss Anna Prescott in a letter from 216 South Seventh Street, Minneapolis, Minn., writes:
 'I am sincerely grateful for the relief I have found from the use of Peruna. I was completely used up last fall, my appetite had failed and felt weak and tired all the time. My druggist advised me to try Peruna and the relief I ex- perienced after taking one bottle was truly wonderful.
 T continued it's use for five weeks, and am glad to say that my complete restoration to health was a happy sur prise to myself as well as to my friends" Anna Prescott.
 A constant drain of nervous vitality de- pleting the whole nervous system causes the mucous membrane surfaces to suf- fer accordingly. This Is the condition called systemic catarrh. It very nearly resembles, and there is really no practi- cal difference between this condition and the condition known as neurasthenia, or nervous prostration.
 Peruna will be found to effect an i'm mediate and lasting cure In all cases of systemic catarrh. It acts quickly and beneficially on the diseased mucous mem branes. and with healthy mucous mem bIanes the catarrh can no longer exist.
 Peruna is equally efficacious in curing catarrh of the throat as in curing sys- temic catarrh or catarrh of the stomach. Catarrh Is essentially the same wherever located. Peruna cures catarrh. Peruna Makes You Feel Like a New
 Person.
 Miss Marie Coats, a popular young woman of Appleton. Wis, and President of the Appleton Young Ladies' Club, also speaks in glowing terms of Peruna. A letter recently received from her by The Peruna Medicine Company, of Columbus, Ohio, reads as follows:
 T am glad to call the attention of my friends to Peruna. When that languid, tired feeling comes over you, and your food no longer tastes good, and small annoyarces irritate you, Peruna will make you feel like another person inside of a week.
 ''I have now used 1t for three seasons, and find 1t very valuable and eficacious. Miss Marie Coats.
 Peruna cures catarrh permanently. It cures old chronic cases as well as slight attack, the only difference being in the length of time that 1t should be taken to effect a cure.

MANY HAVE CATARRH
 WHO DON'T SUSPECT IT.
Peruna is a Tonic That Cleanses the
 System of all Catarrh.

Diseased nerves are directly traceable to poor digestion, and poor digestion is directly traceable to catarrh. With the slightest catarrh of the stomach no one can have good digestion.
 Very few of the many women who have catarrh of the stomach suspect what their r'aI trouble Is. They know they beich after meals. have sour stom- ach. a sensation of weight or heaviness, fullress, irregular appetite. drowsi- ness, gnawlng, empty sensations, occa- slonal pain-they all know this; but they do not know that their trouble Is catarrh of the stomach. If they did they would take Peruna.
 Peruna cures catarrh wherever located. As soon as Peruna removes catarrh from the stomach the digestion becomes good. appetite regular. nerves strong, and trouble vanishes. Peruna strengthens weak nerves, not by temporarily stimu- lating them. but by removing the cause of weak nerves-poor digestion. This is the only cure that lasts. Remove the cause: Nature will do the rest. Peruna removes the cause.
