A multitude of people have come to
rely upon Peruna to do this very thing.
Peruna produces clean healthy mucous
membranes. These protect the internal
organs from the encroachments of dis
ease.
Peruna produces a regular vigorous
circulation of the blood. This gives
vitality to Withstand the depressing in
fluences of September weather.
In this way the system IL fortified
against the inevitable season Of dry
weather, low reservoirs and stagnant
water.
Mr.. Silas Vigil, Berthoud, Col, writes:
my boy (Elin), Is months old. was sick
with Inflammation OF the bowels for over
a month
81 tried a good many medicines, but he
seemed to go from bad to worse, until l
lost nearly all hope of his recovery.
AT that critical moment I wrote to you
about his case. 1 followed your special
| treatment to the letter and it acted won
derfully and quickly.
I'm three days we had the pleasure OF
seeing him smile for the first time in a
month. Peruna is our favorite medicine

Turing the month of September the
- drinking water, especially of cities. is
apt to be polluted
To supply water to a large number OF
people, rivers and lakes must necessarily
be drawn upon
These places become more or less stag
nant during September Hence the water
is impure.
The result is a prevalence of Typhoid
fever and bowel diseases. o..
The natural and surest remedy is to
change from polluted to pure drinking
water
This cannot always be done, however.
Many people are wholly dependent upon
such drinking water as the city may
furnish
Their systems are therefore contami-
mated with disease germs. Some of the
people so contaminated fall easy prey
to disease. Such people are those who
happen to be in a weakened condition,
or who are suffering from slight catar-
rhal conditions of the mucous membranes
OF the bowels.
Therefore It follows that in cases where
the use of contaminated water Is un-
avoidable, the next best thing is to put
the system In such a condition as to re-
sist the action of disease germs.
