mammoth institutions, employing
thousands of workers, doing their
business entirely through the medium

claim, are making commercial

CAUGHT BY THE Grip
RELEASED BY PE-RU-NA.
La Grippe Is Epidemic Catarrh.

THE disease now known as grip
1 used to be called Influenza
livery closely resembles cold, but is
more tenacious in its hold upon the
system and produces more profound dis
turbances.
Grip is in reality epidemic catarrh
When 1t once begins it spreads over the
country very rapidly.
People do not catch the grip from each
other, but each one catches it from the
atmosphere.
"MOst Effective Medicine Ever Tried
for La Grippe"
Robt. L. Madison, A. M, Principal OF
Cullowhee High School, Painter, N. c.,
is chairman of the Jackson County
Board Of Education.
He Is writer of occasional verse and
has contributed to number of leading
papers and s,-religious, edu-
cational and secular.
In speaking of Peruna, Mr.. Madison
says:
81 am hardly ever without Peruna in
my home. 1t is the most effective medi-
cine that have ever tried for la grippe.
at also cured my wife of nasal ca
tarrh. Her condition at one time was
such that she could not at night breathe
through her nostrils.
"In consequence, an inflamed condi-
ton Of the throat was brought about,
getting worse and worse and yielding
to no remedy until Peruna was tried"
Healthy Mucous Membranes.
Those who are fortunate enough to
have perfectly healthy mucous men,
branes ordinarily do not catch the grip.
The mucous membranes lining the
nose, throat and lungs, when in a
normal state, are an effectual barrier
against the invasion Of grip.
But, if there happens to be the slight
est catarrhal arrangement of the
mucous membranes, then the victim be-
comes an easier prey to the grip.
This in part explains why some peo-
pie get the grip, while others do not.
The rational thing to do is to keep the
system free from catarrh. In attempt
ing to do this most people have found
Peruna to be invaluable.
Systemic catarrh, the Result Of La
Grippe. Pe-ru-na Receives Credit
for Present Good Health.
Mrs. Jennie w. Gilmore, Box A,
White Oak, Ind. Ter, formerly House
keeper for Indiana Reform School for
Boys, writes:
"Six years ago had la grippe, which
was followed by systemic catarrh.
"The only thing I used was Peruna
and Manalin, and have been in better
health the last three years than for
years before.
81 give Peruna all the credit for my
good health"

During an epidemic of grip Peruna
should be used. The doses recon-
mendeG on the bottle are sufficient.
After the grip has once been acquired,
DR.. Hartman recommends the use of
Peruna in teaspoonful doses every hour
during the acute stage, after which the
directions on the bottle should be fol-
lowed.
Experience has shown that the people
who use Peruna as remedy for grip
generally recover sooner and are less
liable to the distressing and long-con-
tinued after-effects of the grip.
When Peruna has not been used DUR
ing the course of the grip and the patient
finds himself suffering from the after
effects of this disease, a course of Peruna
should be resorted to.
