Waldlng, Klnnan & Marvin,
THE OLDEST MAN IN AMERICA
Escaped the Terrors of
Many Winters By
Using Pe-ru-na.
IN "peaking of hit good health and
extreme old age, Mr. Brock iayt :
"After a man hat lived in the world
aa lung as I have, he ought to have
found ont a great many thing by ex
pcrience. I think I have done so.
"One of the things I hate found
out to my entire satisfaction Is the
proper thing for ailments that
are due directly to the effects of
the climate. For 117 years I have
withstood the changeable climate
of the United States.
"I have always beon a very healthy
man, but, of course, subject to the af
fections which are due to sudden
changes in the climate and tempera
ture. During my long life I have known
a great many remodies for coughs, 'olds
and diarrhoea. 1
"As for Dr. Hart man's remedy,
Peruna, I have found It to be the
best, if nut the only, reliable rem
edy for these affections. It has
been my standby for many years,
and I attribute my good health
and extreme old age to this remedy.
"ft exactly meets all my require
ments. It protects me from the evil ef
fects of sudden changes ; it keeps mo in
good appetite; it gives me strength', it
keeps my blood in good circulation. I
have come to rely upon it almost en
tirely for the many little things for
which I need medicine.
"When epidemics of la grippe first
began to make their appearance in this
country I was a sufferer from 'tfcls
disease. , .
"I had several long sieges with
the grip. At first I did not know
that Peruna was a remedy for
this disease. When I heard that
la grippe was epidemic catarrh, I
tried Peruna for la grippe and
found It to be Just the thing. "
In a later letter, Mr. Brock writes I
"I am well and feeling as well as I
have for years. The only thing .that
bothers me is my sight. If I could tee
better I could walk all over the farm,
and it would do me good. I would not
be without Peruna."
