 Fortuna Removes the Cause of
 Cough.
 Pe-ru-na is a cough medicine in the strict sense of the word. It as- sists Nature in getting rid of the ac- cumulated mucus in the bronchial tubes. It assists, first, by strength ening the nerves that control the act of coughing. And, second, by it's e1- pectorant effect the mucus discharges are slightly thinned. making them easier to expectorate. In~ other words, Pe-ru-na acts with Nature.
 Any one taking Pe-ru-na will very quickly find himself better able to cough The cough seems to be more satisfa ctory. It is 8 deeper cough, in which the mucus is raised and easily expectorated. Pe-ru-na relieves cough by removing the cause of the cough. It works in exactly the same way as every other medicine ought to work, in harmony with Nature
