Walnut Hills, Cincinnati, Ohio, writes
For several years | have been troubled
with peculiar spasmodic affection of
the throat. 1t would seize me suddenly
and for a few minutes | would be I'M
able to speak audibly, and my breath
would be greatly interfered with. l
would be obliged to gasp for breath.
Il finally concluded that it was some
catarrhal affection which probably ex-
cited the spasm. It interfered with my
vocation as a preacher, attacking me
occasionally in the pulpit.
II had heard so much about Peruna
as a catarrh remedy that l determined
to try it. After taking two bottles, my
trouble has disappeared. | feel sure
that Peruna has greatly benefited me-"
Rev. p. f. Swanstrom, Swedish
Baptist Pastor, Box 22S, Grantsburg,
Wis, writes that from the use OF
Peruna he is perfectly well, entirely
cured of chronic diarrhea and catarrh.
