 No argument is needed for Peruna. Just get a bottle and try it. If you havt catarrh of the stomach you have a serious trouble. If you want to find remedy it would be very easy to make the experiment. Before you have taken Peruna a week you will likely find yourself better. then you will need no testimonials on the part of other people, or arguments to con- vince you Until you try Peruna. however, all the testimonials in the world and arguments, however log ical, will not move you. Just one trial of Peruna will convince you.
 Persons who object to liquid medi- cines can now obtain Peruna Tablets.
