How To Prepare Simple Mixture Te
Overcome Disease

To relieve the worst forms of Rheu-
matism. take teaspoonful of the fol-
lowing mixture after each meal and at
bedtime:
Fluid Extract Dandelion. one-half
ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces.
These harmless ingredients can be
obtained from our home druggists, and
are easily mixed by shaking them well
in a bottle. Relief is generally felt
from the first few doses.
This prescription, states a well
known authority in a Cleveland morn
ing paper, forces the clogged.up, in
active kidneys to filter and strain
from the blood the poisonous waste
matter and uric acid, which causes
Rheumatism.
AS Rheumatism is not only the most
painful and torturous disease, but dan
gerous to life, this simple recipe will
no doubt be greatly valued by many
suffers here at home, who should at
once prepare the mixture to get this
relief.
1t is said that person who would
take this prescription regularly, dose
or two daily, or even a few times a
week, would never haye serious Kid
mey or Urinary disorders or Rheuma
tism.
Cut this out and preserve it. Good
Rheumatism prescriptions which real
ly relieve are scarce, indeed, and when
you need it, you want it badly. Our
druggists here say they will either
supply these ingredients or make the
mixture ready to take, if any of our
readers to prefer.

Montreal. Nov. 7. 1908.
We found Peruna q relief In several
cases.
We can say II Is a good tonic and we
are very thankful.
Sisters of the Good Shepherd.
When catarrh once fastens itself upon
the system it becomes an obstinate dis
ease to eradicate.
A systemic remedy-one that reaches
every internal organ Of the body-is an
absolute necessity.
Peruna is just such a remedy. 1t
searches out the cause of the disease,
healing and strengthening the mucous
membranes. and thus giving Nature an
opportunity to perform her part of the
restorative process.
One of the many hospitals which have
found Peruna of value in treating old and
obstinate cases of catarrh is the Hospital
st. John, who write, as follows:
1--WE are happy to tell you that your
Peruna has given us satisfaction. Three
patients have tried it, one 6S years old,
Renoui Dupuis, afflicted with catarrh. is
much relieved. more than he has been
for number of years.
"a young girl. rs years old, had an
obstinate cough, which half q bottle of
Peruna caused TO disappear.
"As to myself, two bottles have con-
WINGED me that Peruna is magnificent
as a tonic.
"Before the treatment I could not
walk for quarter of an hour without
The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1908-02-21

experiencing much fatigue. Now can
walk a mile easily.
Through these three cases we desire
to make known to the public the ef-
ficiency Of your remedy"
Hospital st. John, of st. Johns,
Province of Quebec.
A later letter received from the same
institution reads as follows:
"Three weeks ago ! wrote to tell
you how satisfactory we found
Peruna. We recommend IL highly for
colds, coughs. cafarrh and neuralgia.
II have used it myself as tonic with
the best results, taken as directed, half
teaspoonful every half hour"
Mrs. Eta Booker, Dundurn, Sask.
y. w. T., Canada, writes:
~ suffered with pelvic catarrh until
1 wrote TO DIR. Hartman, and after talk
ing treatment as he advised, / can say
/ am now cured of this most trying
affection, for which I am truly thank
full. I think Peruna the best medicine
for catarrh. 1 never felt better in my
life than l do at present"
Peruna not only promptly relieves
coughs and colds in their first stages,
but is equally prompt and efficient for
catarrhal diseases in the chronic stage.
OF course, it is only REASONABLE to
suppose that great deal less medicine
will be necessary to cure slight attack
of catarrh than would be required to
relieve the ailmcnt after il had been o.
lowed to become chronic.

CATARRH Of the respiratory organs
~ is a common ailment in Canada for
at least two-thirds of the year.
This condition is no doubt caused by
the long, severe winters experienced in
this part Of the continent.
Therefore, when Peruna was discov-
cred by Canadian people to be reliable
remedy for these catarrhal diseases, it
at once became a popular medicine, not
only among individuals and in families.
but in the great hospitals, where it was
used as a preventative and relief in
hundreds Of cases.
These institutions do not hesitate to
give their endorsement Of the remedy
which has been SO helpful in the treat
ment Of their poor and sick.
Among these institutions is that of
the Sisters of Good Shepherd, who gave
the following endorsement:
The Peruna Company,
Columbus, Ohio,
Having used Perlgna for the past few
months, for our sick and poor. we are
happy TO say that e has given us great
satisfaction.
The Sisters of tae Good Shepherd,

After continued use Of the remedy,
this institution has found no reason to
change its good opinion of the remedy
and expresses its satisfaction in the fol-
lowing terms:
