years old, was troubled with a very bad
cough which remained after an attack
Of catarrhal fever, which was a gres.
deal worse at night.
"She would wake up out OF her sleep

sand it.
"Nothing that we gave her seemed to
do her any good. i then concluded to
send for DR.. Hartman's book entitled

received.

her Pefuna. She has taken one bottle

"She also since her birth was troubled
with indigestion, but since she has
taken Peruna she can eat almost any
kind of food without any bad results.
"She is now as well and happy as any
little girl can be. When our friends
say how well she looks, l tell them
Peruna did it.
