The Japs Use Pe-ru-na.

The Japs Use Pe-ru-na. This fact is testified
to by recent travellers in Japan, who have
observed Peruna displayed in Japanese drug
stores, in show windows and by means of
placardS.
The Japs Use Pe-ru-na. This might might
not account for their strenuous, active habits
We are not prepared to say. The JapS are
notably healthy people, They are courage
GUS supple and capable of great endurance
Their climate is not very productive of catarrh
and catarrhal diseases, yet they are in some de-
gree afflicted with this worlds scourge.
The Japs Use Pe-ru-na. They have been quick
to adopt all American customs. They have
adopted our manner of government, our fashions
to dress, mode of warfare our public
school system and they have even adopted
custom of taking Peruna for catarrhal
diseases.
The laps Use Pe.ru-na. The Japs are the
Yankees of the Orient They move quickly.
They are positive. Peruna exactly fits in this
sort OF life. Busy people have no time to
bother with catarrh Colds are irksome and
hold them back. They want to get rid of them
quickly. Nothing acts so promptly as Peruna
Peruna prevents catarrh by npping it in the
bud.
The Japs Use Pe-ru-na. Quick action, -this is
characteristic of Peruna and characteristic of the
Japs. 1t is very natural, indeed, and inevitable
that the Japs should use Peruna. They are
up to the times. They adopt all good things
They do not have to be told twice.
