U. S. DISPENSATORY
Describes the Prinoipel Ingredients
Contained in Pe-ru-na.

Are we claiming too much for Peruna
when we claim it to be an effective
remedy for chronic catarrh? Have we
abundant proof that Peruna Is in real
ity such a catarrh remedy2 Let us sec
what the United States Dispensatory
says of the principal ingredients of
Peruna.
Take, for instance, the ingredient
hydrastis canadensis, or golden seal.
The United States Dispensatory says
of this herbal remedy, that 1t is largely
employed in the treatment of depraved
mucous membranes, chronic rhinitis
(nasal catarrh), atomic dyspepsia lea
tarrh of the shomach), chronic intesti-
nal catarrh, catarrhal jaundice, (ca-
tarrh Of the hver) and In diseased
mucous membranes of the pelvic organs.
1t Is also recommended for the treat
ment of various forms of diseases pc
culiar to women.
Another ingredient Of Peruna, cory
dalis formosa, Is classed in the United
States Dispen satory as tonic. So also
is cubebs classed as stomachic and as
a tonic for the mucous membranes.
Cedron seeds is another ingredient Of
Peruna, an excellent drug that has
been very largely overlooked by the
medical profession for the past fifty
years. The seeds are to be found in
very few drug stores. The United
States Dispenaatory says of the action
of cedron that 1t Is used as bitter
tonic and In the treatment of dysentery,
and in intermittent diseases as a sub
stitute for quinine.
Oil of copaiba, another ingredient Of
Peruna, is classed by the United States
Dispensatory as mild stimu:ant and
diuretic. 1t acts on the stomach and
intestinal tract. 1t acts as a stimu-
liant on the genito-urinary membranes.
Useful in chronic cystitis, chronic dys-
EMERY and diarrhea, and some chronic
diseases Of the liver and kidneys.

cleanliness is it's main factor. There IS
no evidence of decaying vegetables or
odor of any kind existing here, and that
cannot be said of many other such
markets. The prices, too, prevailing
here are below those in many other
cities. Meats especially are priced at
much less thai they are in Albany
