be about half teaspoonful. while you

Of alcohol in your bottle Of beer. And
yet you objected tn your mothers TAX

runa contains alcohol. In my opinion
1t was the alcohol that cured both OF

Of a very serious ailment. Peruna con.
tains alcohol. II was undoubtedly the
alcohol that cured her, or 1t least

thousands of such cases."
