THE OLDEST MAN In AMERICA
Tells How He Escaped the Terrors of Many Winters
by Using Pe=ru=na.

This ceptenarian is an ardent friend OF
Peruna, having used it many years.
In speaking of his good health and ex-
IRENE old age, Mr. Brock says:
After man has lived in the world as
long as / have, he ought to have foun6
out great many things by experience
think l have done so.
"One of The things 4 have found
out TO my entire satisfaction IS me
proper thing for ailments that are
climate. For us ye.7-s have
wifhsfood the changeabie climate OF
the United States.
Il have always been very healthy
man, but of course subject to the little
affections which are due 10 sudden
changes in the climate and temperature
During my long life / have known
great many remedies for coughs, COLDS
and diarrhoea
"As for DIR. Harfman's remedy,
peruna, I have found IL 10 be the
best, if NOT the only, reliable remedy
for these affections. Ii has been my
standby for many years, and !dffrib-
ute my good health and extreme old
age TO this remedy.
1T exactly meets all my requirements.
1t protects me from the evil effects or
sudden changes; it keeps rae in good
appetite; it gives me strength; it Keeps
my blood in good circulation. have

When epidemics of Ia grippe first
began to make their appearance in this
country l was a sufferer from this dis
ease
al had several long sieges with
the grip. At first did not know
that Peruna was remedy for this
disease. When heard fhaf Ia grippe
was epidemic cafarrh, TRIED Peruna
for la grippe and found il 10 be just
the thing"
In later letter dated January 81, 1903,
Mr. Brock writes:
Il am well and feeling az we'll as J.
have for years. The Only thing that
| bothers me is my sight. If ! could see
better could walk all over the farm and
it would do me good. would not be

pou1try Yard peacemakers.

Two young bantam rooSters in a
New Jersey chicken yard glared 1T
each other for several minutes the 9th
er morning, and then. amid great
squawking and lenpins and flying of
feathers, they began to fight.
q circle of young hens and cocks
formed around them. This gathering
looked on with quiet interest.
And then suddenly from Il far corner
q very aged, large and stately rooster
came running at top speed. He scat
tered the ring of spectators to right
and left. Then. with q blow of either
robust wing, he drove the youthful
combatants apart. After q few c!ucks
and crows, eXclauations of disgust
and disappointment and bnt1led rage
peace was restored again. Then the
old rooster went back to the quiet and
lonely corner where he had been MUS
ing.
Il call that fellow my peacemaker,
said the farmer Whenever u fight
starts among the young fowl he turns
to and puts stop to it. Peacelnakers
in chicken yards aren't SO unusual as
you'd think. This one Is the third I've

they have had peacemakers too. y
