Peruna is known from the Atlantic to
the Pacific. Letters of congratulation
and COMMUNICATION testifying 70 the
merits of Peruna as a catarrh remedy
are pouring in from every State in the
Union. DIR. Hartman is receiving hun
dreds of such letters daily. All classics
write these letters, from the highest to
the lowest.
The outdoor laborer, the indoor arti-
san, the clerk, the editor, the statesman,
the preacher all agree that Pcruna is
the catarrh remedy of the age. The
stage and rostrum, recognizing catarrh
as their greatest enemy, are especially
enthusiastic in their praise and testi-
mony.
Any manNvho wishes perfect health
must be entirely free from catarrh. Ca
tarrh is well nigh universal; almost ON
nipresent Peruna is the only absolute
safeguard known. A cold is the be-
ginning of catarrh. To prevent colds,
to cure colds, is to cheat catarrh out of
its victims. Peruna not only cures ca
tarrh, but preventsit. Every household
should be supplied with this great rem
edy for coughs, colds and so forth.
The Governor of Oregon is an ardent
admirer of Peruna. He keep, it con-

Charles Frohman, the theatrical man

clamation: The king is dead; long live
the king" On the first night of the play
he became more and more nervous as the

this was the use he made of It: Long
