In this you ling with the problem of furnishing the public an internal catarrh remedy. Peruna has been the remedy that I have devised and it baa certainly re lieved many thousand people, yes, hundreds of thousands of people, of chronic catarrh. Constipation was my chief difficulty I in treating these rates. I often felt 1 that it would be better if a laxative element were added to Peruna. I fear i ed to do so, however, first because of 'the number of catarrhal patients who ; i.e eded no laxative, and second I was I r-fraid of making such a radical j change in a remedy that was already : doing so well. Thus it was that I ' continued to prescribe with the Pe- j j runa a bottle or Manaiin to mose wno ' reeded a laxative. At last, under cir cumstances explained in my booklet, 1 1 was constrained to add the laxative o'ement to Peruna. This constitute what is now known as the revised Peruua. Now those who take Peruna will, first, find themselves promptly reliev ed of their constipation. Second, the catarrh will gradually disappear. And once the catarrh is cured the consti pation leaves perirlanently. Then if i you follow the advice given In my , book, you will never have to take pil's Children's Prattl.
