Pe-ru-na Cured Her After Doctors Failed.
A Warning to thousands to
Use Pe-ru-na Alone For
All Catarrhal Ills.

Mr.. Andrew Cooper, Water street
Menasha, Wis, President of Menasha
Horticultural society, and member OF
Ancient order of United Workmen'
writes
Il suffered with kidney trouble for
a number of years and doctored un-
til I became sick and tired of medi-
cine. I was discouraged and thought
there was no help for me. One of
the members of our lodge told me
that he had been taking Peruna, and
it had done him so much good that
he thought it would help me, so I
bought a bottle on my way home. 1
took it for a couple of weeks before I
noticed any change for the better, but
my improvement was very fast after
that, and in a little while I was feel
ing SO much better that could go to
work again. 1 used Peruna for four
months and was rid of all kidney
trouble, the pains in the back were
all gone, and 1 felt much better all
around. Andrew Cooper.
Some people do not seem to under
stand that there is any such disease
as catarrh of the kidneys. Diuretics
only aggravate the kidneys. Peruna
is not a diuretic. Peruna is catarrh
remedy. This explains why it is that
Peruna cures a great number of kid
ney diseases in which the usual rem
edies fail.
1t is worse than useless to prescribe
diuretics for catarrh of the kidneys.
/ Such remedies only irritate and make
matters worse. Peruna cures such
cases promptly and permanently
turks in the system, whether of the
! head, nose, throat, lungs, stomach,
kidneys, liver or pelvic organs.

man, U. S. Surveyors, General Office,
