He is model Of strengpa and vitality
and since Peruna is the only yNemedy he
ever makes personal use OF, his physical
condition is testimonial to the efficaey
of Peruna of greater value than could
be framed in words.
DR.. Hartman is one OF the few doctors
who take their own medicine and his
splendid physique and strength IN his

Peruna very difficult to gainsay.

His milk cows, of the purest Jersey

City of Columbus pure milk, certified
by the Board OF Health.
The milk stables, the milk men and
the whole process of milking are sb-
