"Peruna is the best medicine for

Peruna tends to lessen the cough, de-
creases the expectoration, strengthens
the patient, increases the appetite and
in many cases procures sound, refresh
ing sleep.
But the value Of Peruna in the treat
ment of case Of consumption is not so
great rs it is in the prevention of con-
sumption.
Since it is well known that consump-
ton begins with common cold or ca
tarrh, any medicine that can be relied
upon to relieve these must be regarded
as a preventive Of consumption.
Thousands of cases of incipient con-
sumption, or chronic coughs, or settled

safe and reliable remedy for these all
