Sylvester E. Smith, Mining Expert
and Superintendent of Mines in Utah
in a letter from 81 Chestnut street,
st. Louis, No.; says;
q" Pernna IS the best friend q sick
man can have. A few months agO
I came here in a Wrefched condition,
Exposure and danIpneSS had ruined
my once robust health. ! had ca
farrhal affections of the bronchial
tubes, and for q time there was a
doubt as 10 my recovery. MygOOd,
honest old doctor advised me 10
take Peruna, which did, and in a
short time my health began 10 inn

trouble gradually disappeared and
IN three months my health was
fully restored. Accept a grateful

While Still In the Bronchial
Tubes Pe-Tu-na Never Falls
to Cure catarrh.

Exposure and dampness ruined my
health" This is a statement that oc-
ours over and over again, in the i'm
mense correspondence which DR.. Hart
man conducts with his patients, East
and West, North and South.
People catch a cold. They neglect to
take Peruna, possibly thinking they
VIII get over it.
The cold settles on their chest.
They find themselves with a cough or
chronic catarrh. They call the doctor,
perhaps.
He expresses the fear that they are
going into consumption.
He is right, too.
They are actually on the road towards
consumption.
Consumption is simply catarrh Of the
lungs.
Catarrh is creeping slowly but surely
towards the lungs.
When it reaches the lungs it VIII be
called consumption.
While still in the bronchial tubes, Pc
runa never fails 70 cure these cases.
Instead Of sending for a doctor they
should have bought bottle of Peruna.
This would have settled the whole
matter.
A Prominent Gentleman TestifIes.
Col. J. Madison Cults, a native Of Vir-
ginia, and Ineal descendent Of EXPIRES
ident James Madison, and brother-in-
law of the late L. S. Senator Stephen
A. Douglas, in a recent letter says:
GAS many of my friends have used
your Peruna as a cure for catarrh with
beneficial results I have no hesitation in
recommending it to all persons suffer-
ing with that complaint" -Col. J. Mad

Mr.. George A. Douglas, Inspector Of
Bridges, Albany ave-, Green Island,
N. Y, writes the following:
"As my work compels me to spend a
large part of my time out of doors, I
have often been drenched by sudden
rains, chilled by extreme cold, and I
soon found that had a bad case Of ca
tarrh of the bronchial tubes. 1 tried
