Don't Sleep Well
No Good Reason
Just Can't Sleep

Some people can't sleep. There
seems to be no special reason. They
have no disease Of the nervous sys-
TEN. Digestion is fairly good. Their
habits are pretty good. They may
smoke a little or drink a little. yet
their habits are fair. Stll they can't
sleep well.
Just little unbalanced in the nerve
centers. That Is all. They should
have a little Fighting up"
A tonic will generally do this. The
right sort of tonic. Peruna is ex-
ac;ly the tonic. Digestion is hurried
by Peruna. The stomach is empty
and ready to rest for the night. The
circulation is equalized. The brain
is relieved Of ell congestions and i.ri-
tations.
The Peruna acts on every blood
vessel in the system. It acts on all
OF the nerve centers. One begins to
sleep and hardly knows why.
Take a teaspoonful to one table,
spoonful OF Peruna before each meal.
Sometimes another tablespoonful at
bedtime is necessary. where the sleep
lessness is very pronounced.
Just try It, neighbor. You will be
glad If you do. One bottle will con-
vince you. Peruna is no sleep medi-
cine. II is not a nervine. 1t contains
no narcotics. 1t Is nothing Of that
sort. 1t Is simply regulative tonic.
Every home should be provided

Life" sent free By the Peruna Co.,
