HAD CHRONIC BRONCHITIS
FOR TWENTY-SIX YEARS
NOW WELL AND HAPPY
.THIS IS WORTH READING
The experience of Mr. E. J. Tou-
palik, 1438 Rose street, LaCrosse,
Wisconsin, is chiefly remarkable
on account of the length of time
he was afflicted.
He writes: "I have been suf
fering with chronic bronchitis for
twenty-six yours and every winter
I would catch cold and become so
hoarse I could net speak for six or
eight weeks. I could get only tem
porary relief. .
"This winter I was taken with
Grip and was in awful shape. A
fellow workman advised mo to take
PE-RU-NA. By the time I had
used three-fourths of a bottle, the
hoarseness was gone, alro that
tired feeling. I am on my second
bottle. Hereafter PE-RU-NA wiil
be constantly in my house. It is
the best medicine ever put up for
the purpose." m
For any disease due to catb.rh
or catarrhal conditions, PE-RU-NA
is equally dependable. Coughs,
colds, catarrh of the head, stomach
trouble, constipation, rheumatism,
pains in the back, aide and loins,
bloating, belching gas, indigestion,
catarrh of the large and small in
testines, are some of the troubles
for which PE-RU-NA is especially
recommended. j
PE-RU-NA can be purchased
anywhere in either tablet or liquid
form.
