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-
tenn. Digestion is fairly good. Their
habits are pretty good. They may
smoke a little or drink a little, yet
their habits are fair. Still they can't
sleep well.
Just a little unbalanced in the nerve
centers. That is all. They should
have little "righting up"
A tonic will generally do this. The
right sort of a tonic. Peruna is ex-
actly 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 all COMPOSITIONS and irri-
tatiens.
The Peruna acts on every blood
vessel in the system. 1t 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. It is not a nervine. It contains
no narcotics. It is nothing Of that
sort. It is simply a regulative tonic
