WHY HOT WEATHER MAKES WOMEN NERVOUS.
Suggestions by Dr.. Hartman. How
TO Combat the Nervous Depression
Incident TO Warm Weather.

Nervousness is very common among
women This condition Is due to anaemic
nerve centers. The nerve centers are
the reservoir for nerve vitality. These
centers become bloodless for the want
of proper nutrition.
This condition is especially noticeable
during the warm season. Every sum-
mer an army Of invalids are produced as
direct result of weak nervous systems.
This could easily be overcome by the
use of Peruna. Peruna strikes at the
root of the trouble by correcting the
digestion. Perfect digestion furnishes
increased nutrition for the nerve centers.
Perfectly digested food gives these reser-
voirs of life vitality which creates
strong. steady nerves, and in this man
ner fortifies and nourishes life.
Miss Blanche Grey, a prominent young
society woman Of Memphis, Tenn, in a
recent letter from 174 Alabama street,
writes: ''To society woman whose
nervous force Is often taxed to the utmost
from lack of rest and irregular meals,
know of nothing which Is of so much
benefit as Peruna. took it a few
months ago when l felt my strength
giving way, and II soon made itself
manifest I'm giving me new strength
and health. Miss Blanche Grey.
Pe-ra-na Contains no Narcotics.
One reason why Peruna has found
| permanent use in so many homes is that
| it contains no narcotic of any kind. Pc
runa is perfectly harmless. 1t can be
| used any length Of time without acquir-
| ing a drug habit. Peruna does not pro-
duce temporary results. 1t is perma-
nent in its effect.
| 1t has no bad effect upon the system.
and gradually eliminates catarrh by
removing the cause of catarrh. There
are a multitude of homes where Peruna
has been used off and on for twenty
years. Such a thing could not be posi-
BILE IL Peruna contained any drugs Of a
narcotic nature.
At this season of the year we are
peculiarly liable to infiammations of the
stomach and bowels. 1t is the part of
wisdom to learn how to cut them short
and in the easiest and quickest manner.
Peruna does this by its peculiar power
over all forms of catarrhal troubles.
