Mr. Lewis Jenkins. R F. D. 4, Chilll
cothe, Livingston Co., Missouri, veter
an of the civil war and member of Mer

built up my health so I can do as much
work In a day as a young man of twen
ty years, and I can recommend it every
where. "I was so bad with catarrh of the
head and kidneys that I could not sleep
at all. I went in a drug store. I saw
a few bottles of It, and I asked the
druggist If that was what it was put up
for and he said it was. ho I bought a
bottle and took it and It commenced to
relieve me ao much that I kept on tak
ing It and it cleared everything like
catarrh out of the system, and has
cleared me of chroulo diarrhea, from
camp life of the army of the civil war.
"I took sold a week ago. I got a bot
tle of it and am taking It and my cold
baa about left me.
"I am a man of about sixty-five, and
can do. work of any kind. My strength
is powerful, and the people ask me
what I did. that made me so stout. I
tell them I took Peruna and cleared the
catarrh out.
"I told the drug man I waa not going
te 4o wUhoat U IX I fc4 U asesl to the
Peruna Company. I think there 1 no
better tnedlolne for the old veteran of
the civil war or for a person of my
age than Peruna. It does the work."

speex too highly of Peruna, as a tonic
and catarrh cure in whatever form er
wherever located. I had a great de.U
of trouble with my bowels and Peruna
cured me.
"My son waa very low with catarrh
of the stomach, and after doctoring for
seven weeks was worse than when he
began. The doctor did not seem to
understand his case. He commenced
using Peruna, which helped him right
along, and he was soon at work again
