The rapid growth of the Peruna Medi-
cine Company is as phenomenal in the
business world as the universal popu-
larity of their famous remedy, Peruna.
The plant covers number of acres,
and employs several hundred people.
No other medicine firm in the world
reaches anything like the volume of
business done by DIR. Hartman's firm.
Although Peruna is a proprietary
medicine, the details of its compound
ing are in strict accordance with phar-
maceutical discoveries and nothing
gives DR.. Hartman greater pleasure
than to show his intimate professional
friends through the laboratory where
Peruna is made.
A Doctors Prescription.
For years DIR. Hartman used Peruna
in his private practice as q regular pre-
scription. He had no thought of manu-
featuring itor advertising it as pro-
prietary medicine until there was de-
mand made upon him by his many
friends, who clamored for the original
prescription.
