A VENERABLE PASTOR
CURED BY PE=RU-NA.
Pe-ru-na is Catarrhal Tonic
Especially Adapted to the De-
Ginning Powers of Old Age.

In old age the mucous membranes
become thickened and partly lose
their function.
This leads to partial loss OF hear
ing, smell and taste, as well as digest
i've disturbances.
Peruna corrects all this by it's spe-
citic operation on all the mucous
membranes OF the body
One bottle will convince anyone.
Once used and Peruna becomes a
lifelong standby with old and young.
