Pe.ru.na Contains No Narcotics.

One reason why Peruna has found
permanent use in so many homes is that
it contains no narcotic of any kind.
Peruna is perfectly harmless. 1t can be
used any length of time without acquir-
ing a drug habit. Peruna does not pro-
duce temporary results. 1t is perman-
emit in it's effect.
1t has no bad effect upon the system,
and gradually eliminates catarrh by
removing the cause of catarrh. There
are a multitude of homes where Peruna
has been used off and on for twenty
years. Such a thing could not be pos
sible if Peruna contained any drugs of
a narcotic nature.

universal de los mercaderes agiotistas,
cuya patria es la speculation, y cuya ban
dera bien pudiera ser un trapo amarillo,

A esos extranjeros, realmente pernieio-
sos para la terra que los sustenta y los
