A California trained nurse proved
this Three years ago I was taken
very sick my work as a trained nurse
having worn me out both In body and
mind and medicine failed to relieve
me at all After seeing a number of
physicians and specialists and getting I
much discouraged I
no relief I was very
ugod and felt that I would die of
general nervous and physical collapse
My condition was so bad I never
Imagined food would help me but on
the advice of a friend I tried Drape
Nuts Tho first package brought me
so much relief that I quit tile medi
cines and used GrapeNuts steadily
three times a day The result was
that within six months I had sb com
pletely regained my strength an < t

Hon M C Dutlfr of South Carolina was United States Senator from that State for

says
1 can recommend Pcruna for dyspepsia and stomach trouble
I have been using your medicine for a abort period mid I ccl
very much relieved It is indeed a wonderful medicine besides a
good tOllicltr C Butler
Catarrhof the Stomach Is Generally
Callod spopslaSomothing

Henoo Panoroatin and i
Pepsin a
Host of Other Digestive Rem
edies Have Been Invented
These Remedies Do Not Roach tho I
Seat of tho Difficulty Which
Is Really Catarrh of the
Stomach
This Deranges the System So that
Proper Digestion Cannot
Take Place
The only rational war to cure dyipen
Is to remoTe the catarrh Peruna cures ca
tarrh rerun does not produce artificial
dlieitlon It cures catarrh and leans the
stomach to perform digestion 1 n a natural
way This Is vastly better and safer than
resorting to artificial methods
Peruna has cured more cases of dtspepsla
than all other remedies combined simply
because It cures catarrh wherever located
If catarrh U located lu the hondo Perunn
cures It H catarrh ha < fastened Itself In
the throat or bronchial tubes Peruna cum
It When catarrh becomes settled In the
stomach Peruna cures It as well In this lo
cation as any other
Peruna Is not slmolr a remedy for dm
pepsin Peruna Is a catarrh remedy Pe
runa cures dyspepsia because It Is generally
dependent upon catarrh
