She Will
Recover

So her doctor said. Her
friends and neighbors felt
sure of it too. They have
used Peruna themselves
and know of its merits.
That old cough that had
worried her for years and
years, for which she had
taken all sorts of cough
medicines, has disappeared.
Peruna is doing the work.
She will recover. Indeed,
she has recovered.
Her name is Mrs. William
Hohmann, 2764 Lincoln Ave,
Chicago, Ills. She had suffered
with oatarrh Of the bronchial
tubes and had a terrible cough
ever since a child. AS she got
older she grew worse. She
coughed both winter and sum-
mer. Had to sit up at night.
Gould not sleep. But all that
has left me now. Peruna has
cured me-"
There are others. and there
is a reason.
