Grape-Nuts food is daily recommend

Henry Soule of Pultney St., Ham.
mondsport. N. Y, says: "For eight
years suffered constant agony from
kidney complaint. endured the
worst torture from gravel and the
kidney secretions were excessive and
contained sediment like brick dust. I
had to get out Of bed from ten to
twenty times night and the loss of
sleep wore me out. Indigestion came
on and the distress after eating was
terrible. Doan's Kidney Pills effected
a complete and lasting cure, and after
the symptoms of kidney trouble were
gone my stomach began to work as
it should. This lasting cure, espe-
cially in a person Of my age, proves the
great value of Doan's Kidney Pills

John o. Atkinson,

When old age comes on, catarrhal dis

most universal in old people.
This explains why Peruna has become
so indispensable to old people. Peruna
is their safeguard. Peruna is the only
remedy yet devised that meets these cases
exactly.
Such cases cannot DO treated locally;
nothing but an effective systemic remedy
could cure them. This is exactly what
Peruna is.
