HEALTH HI
is the
Most Important

In buying food-products, several things
are to be thought Of i. e., Economy,
Results, Easy Handling, Reliability, but
the most important is Health.
Health means everything. In buying
clothes, shoes, hats, furniture, ETC., if the
buyer is deceived and gets an imitation
the only harm is loss Of money. In buy
ing food products, if limitations are sup
piled, there is not on nly loss Of money,
but perhaps an injury to health-which
is beyond price.

A woman in society is obliged to
keep late hours. She must attend re-
ceptions and balls. She seldom al
lows herself a quiet evening at home.
Her whole time is taken up in keeping
engagements or entertaining in her
own home.
Her system becomes completely run
down as a consequence. She soon
finds herself in a condition known as
systemic catarrh. This has also been
called catarrhal nervousness.
If every society woman could know
the value of Peruna at such time,
if they could realize the invigorating.
strengthening effect that Peruna
would have, how much misery could
he avoided.
