This Medicine Recommended by a Doctor

When a doctor uses medicine him
self, besides prescribing it to his patients,
he must know that it has merit.
This is what DR.. ]. H. Wagner, a prom
inent physician of Skate, Kentucky, has
to say about DR.. Hartman's well-known
remedy, PE-RU-NA: "I have used Pc
RU-NA myself for catarrh and have
given it to others for catarrh, bloating
after eating and other ailments. 1t has
proved a success in all cases with old
and young men and women. All speak
we'll of PE-RU-NA. 1t is the best of all
tonics."
DR.. Wagner. out of the fullness of his
own personal experience. for the good of
all sick and suffering, recommends a
medicine which he knows to be good.
You may be sure doctor would not en-
danger his professional reputation by
endorsing PE-RU-NA unless satisfied be-
yond a doubt of it's value.
Whether your trouble be a cough or a
cold, or more subtle catarrhal affection
of the stomach, bowels or other organs,
give PE-RU-NA a trial. The immediate
improvement which you will see Will sat-
E-RU-NA is what You need.
