A COMRADE OF GENERAL GRANT
Pe-ru-na is a Catarrhal Tonic Espe.
cially Adapted to the Declining
Powers Of Old Age.

In old age the mucous membranes be-
come thickened and partly lose their
function.
This leads to partial loss OF hearing,
smell and taste, as well as digestive dis
turbances.
Pcruna corrccts all this by It's specific
operation on all the mucous membranes
OF the body.
One bottle will convince anyone. Once
used and Pcruna becomes n lifelong
standby with old and young.
