Systemic Catarrf1
TIE SYMPTOMS ARE.

Sleep poorly. Always tired out
Very nervous.
Sometimes have foolish fears.
Confusion of the senses.
Brown moving speeks before the
eyes.
Subject to spells of prostration.
Dark circles around the eyes.
System out of order generally.
Food seems to give no strength
How does Peruna strengthen? First
1t increases the action of the heart. It
opens the blood vessels. allowing
freer flow of blood. It exhilarates the
mind. quiellens all of the organic fune-
tions.
Peruna strengthens because the one
who takes it eats more, digests better,
excretes freer. Peruna produces a.
physiological balance between assimi-
lation and excretion. The system
throws off effete material faster, takes
on new elements more rapidly, and
strength Is the result.
Peruna strengthens by enabling the
body to get more nutrition from the
food and to protect itself from the
deleterious effects of effete material.

Pain and Cough Gone
Mrs. Jaschob. No. 1881 Pa1mwood
Ave. Toledo. Ohio, writes, when I
wrote you for advice had been sick
for three years, and had been treateds
by three doctors, but I did not GET

trouble with my throat OFTEN 1 could
not breathe through my nose, and had
pains on both sides of 1t. j also had
pains in the chest and q short cough.

Catarrh of the Lungs
THE SYMPTOMS ARE;

Expectorated sputum sinks In
water.
Loss of flesh. Night sweats, stitches
of pain in Sides
Short of breath. Tire very easily.
Collar bones unusually prominent.
Eyes unusually bright.
Voice unusually loud. Hopeful state
of mind.
Fickle or entire loss of appetite.
The fight against catarrh of the
lungs is becoming a national problem.
Lung diseases begin with catarrh. and
the accumulation OF catarrhal secre-
tions in tho lungs causes a cough,
hectic fever. and finally the destruc-
tion of the lung itself
Peruna is very phompt In its action
in these cases. The cough becomes
more effective in raising the poison
Gus mucus. The appetite is at once
stimulated. the whole nutritive func-
tions invigorated. The patient begins
to take on flesh at once. Sleeps better
at night And in cases where there
are night sweats they disappear when
Peruna is taken.

ing after eating.
Stomach bloated, belching of gas.
Palpitation of heart.
Poor digestion, have dyspepsia.
Tongue coated light brown.
Tenderness over pit of stomach.
Cannot bear tight clothes around
waist.
1t is probably true that Peruna has
relieved more cases of stomach trou-
BILE than any other one medicine in
the world. The condition known as
catarrh of the stomach is very preva-
lent A great many people are an
noyed by 1t.
There is only one possible way to
cure such cases. The catarrh of the
stomach must first be removed 1t
was the catarrh that produced the in
digestion. The secretions of the stom-
ach have become vitiated by the ca
tarrhal secretions, digestion could not
take place in a normal way. Peruna
relieves the catarrh Nature does the
rest

Neuralgia behind or under the ears.
Severe headache on taking cold.

A remedy that has stood the test of
many years as catarrh remedy is
Peruna. Peruna is a catarrhal tonic.
1t fortifies the system against catch
ing cold. Its action is remedial in
cases of colds or catarrh,. Hence the
action of Peruna is two fold, a pre-
ventive and corrective.
Peruna should be in every home to
correct the trivial catarrhal ailments
which the father mother and child
dren are often troubled with. To have
Peruna in the house at all times is
not only safety but economy
