Peruna Critics Say
That There Was Nothing Won
depul in the Recovery Of
Mrs. EberIein.
DR.. HARTMAN REPLIES.

OF course my narrative concerning
Mrs Eberleln, of Pittsburg, who was
rescued from apparent death by Pc
ru-na, has excited a good deal Of dis
cussion and comment. One critic has
offered the following solution. He
says that the reason Peruna cured
Mrs. Eberlein at such a stage of the
disease is explained as follows:
She was probably very weak. She
became unable to expeetosate The,
consequence was huge accumulations
OF mucus and phlegm gathered in the
lungs on account Of her weakness
she was unable to expel it, il was
slowly strangling her to death.
Pe.runa stimulated her, enabled
her to cough up and spit out the
accumulated phlegm This explains
why she was cured. There was no
miracle about it, Nothing wonderful
either
To all of which say, yes, OF course
That may be the explanation. And
yet it remains true that without the
Pe.ru-na she would have died. 1t
remains true that / got there, just IN
time to save her live. The doctors
had given her up to die. She was

planned, the Peru ma saved her <ife

tion for everything. Peruna helped
! believe there is a natural eXplana-
Mrs. Eberlein to expel from her lungs
the accumulated expectoration, and
thus saved her life Good
