Approached by a friend recently, his opinion

dorsement 1t appeared on later ,conversa-
ton that Peruna has been used in his family,
where it is favorite remedy.
Such endorsements serve to indicate the
wonderful hold that Peruna has upon the
minds of the American people. 1t is out of
the question that so great and famous man
as Admiral Schley could have any other
reason for giving his endorsement to Peruna
than his positive conviction that the remedy
is all that he says it is.
The fact is that Peruna has overcome all
