Pe-rn-na Contains No Narcotics.

One reason why Peruna has found per-
contains no narcotic of any kind. Pc
runa is perfectly harmless. 1t can be
used any length of time without acquir-
ing drug habit. Peruna does not pro-
duce temporary results. tits permanent
in its effect.
It has no bad effect upon the system,
and gradually eliminates catarrh by re-
moving the cause of catarrh.
There are null itude of homes where
Peruna has been used off and on for
twenty years.
Peruna contained any drugs of mar
cotic nature.

The Benefit Which the Children OF
the United States Have Received
From Pe-ru-na Can Never Be
Put Into Words.

The chronic ailments it has prevented,
the suffering it has mitigated, will
never be fully recorded.
the coming generation owes a great
debt to Peruna, for it is in the tender
years of youth that slight ailments are
liable to develop into lasting disease,
thus blasting the whole career of the
individual.
The mothers who are bringing up their
children to-day to believe in Peruna
are doing a great work for humanity.
These children brought up to believe
in Peruna from the start, will, when
they become heads of families them
selves, use Peruna with unquestioning

Pe-ru-na Should Be Kept In
Every Household
Where There Are Little
Children.

Peruna should be kept in the house
all the time. Don't wait until the child
is sick, then send to drug store. But,
have Peruna on hand-accept no sub
titute.
Children are especially liable to acute
catarrh. Indeed, most of the affections
of childhood are catarrh.
All forms of sore throat, quinsy, Group
hoarseness, 1aryngitis, etc., are but dif.
ferent phases of catarrh.
Mrs. Amelia Sailer, Menasha, Wis,
writes:

which 1 suffered with from infancy.

When Sickness Comes to the
Little Ones
It Is the Mother Who Chiefly
Suffers.

She suffers even more than the child
who happens to be sick.
Her sympathy is deeper than that of
any other member of the family.
The mothers look forward with dread
to the torrd heat of summer, thinking
of their children and the many liabilities
to disease that are before them.
Spring and summer are sure to bring
ailments, especially among the little
folks.
Itdoes not take mother very long to
discover that Peruna is the best friend
she has in times of illness among the
children.
The doctors may come and go with
their different theories and constant
change of remedies.
The doctor of years ago gave entirely
different remedies than he does today.
Each year finds some change in his
prescriptions and in the drugs he relies
upon.
a Multitude Of Mothers
Have discovered that Peruna is the
standby, and that in all the ailments
of spring and summer to which the
children are subjected, Peruna is the
remedy that will most quickly relieve.
Whether it is spring fever or stomach
arrangement, whether it is indigest ion
OF bowel disease, a catarrhal congestion
of the mucous surfaces is the cause.
Peruna quickly relieves this condition
of the mucous membranes. Its opera
ton is prompt, the children do not dis
like to take the medicine, it has no dele
FERROUS effects in any part of the body.
1t simple removes the cause of the
disagreeable symptoms and restores the
health.
Peruna is not a physic. Peruna is not
nervine nor a narcotic. Peruna does
not produce any drug habit, however
long it may be taken. Peruna is not
stimulant.
Peruna is a specific remedy for all
catarrhal ailments of winter and sum-
mer, acute or chronic.
The mothers all over the United States
are the best friends that Peruna has.
The Mothers Hold Pe-ru-na in High
Esteem,
Not only because it has cured them of
their various ailments, but because it
always rescues the children from the
throes and grasp of catarrhal diseases.
We have i'll our files bushels of testi-
monials from mothers whose children
have been cured by Peruna. However,
the large majority of mothers who use
Peruna, we never hear from.
But we do hear from a great number
of mothers who are so overjoyed at
some special good they have received
from Peruna that they cannot restrain
their enthusiasm. They are anxious to
share these benefits with other mothers,
