can heartily recommend Peruna as a
catarrh remedy. Mrs. Elmer Fleming.
Treat Catarrh in Spring.
The spring is the time to treat catarrh.
Cold, wet winter weather often retards
cure of catarrh. If course of Peruna is
taken during the early spring months the
cure will be prompt and permanent. There
can be no failures if Peruna is taken intel.
hgently during the favorable weather of
spring.
As systemic catarrh remedy Peruna
eradicates catarrh from the system wher-
ever it may be located. 1t cures catarrh
of the stomach or bowels with the same
certainty as catarrh of the head.
If you do not derive prompt and salts
factory results from the use of Peruna, write
at once to DR.. Hartman, giving full state
ment of your case and he will be pleased
to give you his valuable advice gratis.
Address DR.. Hartman, President of The
Hartman Sanitarium, Columbus, Ohio.
