"I had n badnt- )

months, nnd
which loft mo ,
with catarrh, and
sevoral of my !
f r 1 o n d 8 advlscd j
mo to try Poruna.
I began with a bottlo tho flrst week ln
March and lt certalnly did mo n great
dcal of good. I -was so well satiafled
that I purchased another bottlo and fol
lowed the dlrectlons, and can say that It
has cured mo." Ilcnry Dlstln.
A largo por ccnt of thoso who aro
aflllcted with tliis opldomic, lnstnad of
gottlng well ns thoy ought to, will havo
chronic catarrh as tho rcsult. Tliis la
almost lnvariably tho caso unlo-s Po
ruiia is taken as soon ns pojJsIMe aftor
tho grip begins.
Evory ono who has observed tho uftect
of Peruna durlng tho last tlirco opidi,'in
ios of la grippo positively knows that
thls remedy will curo it pormancntly.
Tho fact is, howevor, that a grcat mul
tltudo of peoplo will not tako Peruna,
and a foundatlon for chronie catarrh
will be laid.
Even in cases where chronic catarrh
has affectcd tho lungo, and tho early
stages of catarrhal consumptlon hava
been developed, Peruna can bo relled
upon as a proinpt aud lasting cure. La
grippo and catarrh aro at present tho
two great enomies of lifo in tho land.
Peruna is a cure for elther.
If you do not derivo prompt and satia
factory results from the uso of Peruna,
write at onco to Dr. Hartman, glving a
