1t is an ideal spring medicine. Peruna
does not irritate-it invigorates. 1t does
not temporarily stimulate-it strengthens.

tranquilizes the nervous system and regu-
lates the bodily functions. Peruna, unlike
so many spring medicines is not simply
natural tonic and invigorator.
If you do not receive prompt and satisfac-
tory results from the useof Peruna, write
at once to DIR. Hartman, giving full
statement of your case, and he will be
pleased to give you his valuable advice
gratis.

Hartman Sanitarium Columbus, Ohio.

laby is Objectionable, but not equally
so. A baby will go to sleep unaided
