The Facts About Pe=ru=na. It Peraaa an alcoholic beverage in disguise! Is it possible to use Perun* ■s a substitute for whiskey? Do people bqy Perona and use it as a toddy or a bitters, or a bracer? It would be the easiest thing in the world for any one to demonstrate the falsity of such statements. Let any one go to the drug store and purchase a bot tie of Penma. Let him undertake to use it as a beverage, cr take this remedy in doses considerably larger than those prescribed on the bottle. Would the result be alcoholic intoxication? Nothing of the sort Let any one try it and sea Feruna is a medical compound quite heavily loaded with medicinal ingred ients If taken in doses larger than prescribed it would produce a positive drug effect. No one could take it as a beverage. If any one doubts these state ments, try it and see. We know that Peruna cannot be used as a bever age; that it will not intoxicate; that it cannot be used as a substitute for kquors. We guarantee that PERUNA CONTAINS NO CHEAP WHISKEY - OB ANY OTHER WHISKEY, for that matter. It contains a small per cent of cologne spirits, absolutely essential to dis solve and hold in solution medicinal ingredients, but the drugs contained in Peruna prohibit its use as a beverage. It would be the easiest thing in tins world for any one to demonstrate this if they chose to do so. Peruna is sold everywhere. THE INGREDIENTS ARE PLAINLY PRINTED ON EACH BOTTLE. It has been said over and over again that chemists have analysed Peruna and found it to contain only cubebs and whiskey. New we challenge any chemist to demonstrate any snch statement. Let any one who has even a smattering knowledge of chemistry purchase a bottle of Peruna and see whether or not it contains whiskey, find out for him self whether or not it is composed of cheap whiskey and cubebs. Of course, esbebs is one of the ingredients of Peruna, but there are many other ingred ients. It contains hydrastis canadensis, corydalis formosa. collinsonia, and at least four other medicinal ingredients. To be sure, no chemist could so ana lyze Peruna as to be able to identify the various medicinal ingredients. This is beyond the ability of any chemist Bet any ordinary chemist would be able to 6ay that Peruna is heavily loaded with medicinal ingredients of some kind in addition to cubebs. Now why are these statements repeated when their falsity could be so Busily demonstrated? Simply beetuiso there is co:i*innod hostility toward Pe rana or the part of the medical profession. Very likely the magazines which took up the crusade against Peruna ard denounced it os a cheap beverage were misled by statements of tho medical profession. Probably they were sincere in their attitude towards it. But now, a fur all there things have been said and refuted, it would seem to bo iu order for ouch pecoie to uso a little fairness and common sense in tho matter. Every lime cr.y one says t it Peruna ;s nothing but cheap whiskey and cubebs ho -s tcl.ia lie, an absolute falsehood. Slost people intend to speak the truth. Eat toe prevalent habit cf repeating other people’s statement' without investigation as to their truth, has led many well-meaning people to sr.y these false things about Ferrra. 1 Used according to the directions ca the bottto, PERUNA IS A SAPE AND RELIABLE CATAKRH RESIEDY, but, like any other good medicine, if taken in excels of these doses, it will produce drug effects very unpleasant’ to the person who takes it. It is therefore up to every honest person to quit making such statements concerning Peruna, or acknowledge that he is repeating slanders about which he knows nothing. Cne might just as well say that Castor Oil is an intoxicant • that if taken in large enough doses it will operate as a “l ooze." If people never tried to see, tut simply repeated such statements about Castor Oil, the majority of people would ecuto to believe them. It is no easier to demonstraio such a statement about Castor Oil than it would be about Peruna. Any cne v *eo * Pe.uns knows t.iat sueh statements are false. To say that Perur.a is cheap whiskey and cubobs may constitute good material for jokes on the vaudeville stage, but there is no excuse for any oa who pretends to be truthful so- -ver again this oft-repeated falsehood.

The present Mrs. Pinkham, daughter-in-law of Lydia E. Pinkham, was for years under her direction, and has ever since her decease continued to advise women. Many women suiter in silence and drift along from bad to worse, knowing well that they ought to have immediate assistance, but a natural modesty causes them to shrink from exposing themselves to the questions and probable examinations of even their family physician. Such ques tioning and examination is unnecessary. Without cost you can consult a woman whose knowledge from actual experience is great. MRS. PINK.HAM’S STANDING INVITATION: Worn n suffering from any fonnof female weakness are in vited to promptly communicate with Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn, M iss. All letters are received, opened, read and answered by women. A woman can freely talk of her private illness to a woman ; thus lias been established this confidence between Mm. Pinkham and the women of America which has never been broken. Never has she published a testi monial or used a letter without the written consent of the writer, and never has the company allowed these confi dential letters to get out of their possession, as the hun dred-- of thousands of them in their files will attest. Out of the vast volume of experience which Mrs. Pink ham has in draw from, it i.s more than possible that she has gained the very knowledge needed in your case. She asks nothing in return except your good will, and her advice lias helped thousands. Surely any woman, rich or poor, should be glad to take advantage of this generous offer of assistance.
