Catarrh Robs Women of Health and Beauty. Pe=ru-na flakes Women Healthy and Beautiful. Miss Amanda Johnson. Miss Amanda Johnson, Fairchild, Wis., writes. ‘•I write to tell you how much Peruna benefited Tie. Fm a number of years I had pain in my head around my eyes, and I thought It was because my eyes neodod treatment so I went to an oceulist and had glasses fitted to my eyes and wore them for some time, but felt no relief whatever. In fact, I felt worse than before, and camo to the conclu sion that the trouble was not with my eyes, but with my bead and that it must be catarrh. As so many of my friends had used Peruna with benefit for this trouble, I thought I would try it. I was not sorry that I did so, for In a short time I began to improve, and in four weeks my eyes were in splendid condition, my general health was much improved and all the catarrh of the head was gone. I was glad to get rid of this trouble and am glad to endorse such a good medicine as Peruna.”—Miss Amanda Johnson, Miss Flora Ilausar, 1033 S. Mow Jersey Street, Indianapolis, Ind., writes: ••I think I must have been trou bled with catarrh ever since I was very young, aggravated each time / caught a cold. This did not prove sufficiently serious to be ob noxious until last winter. Then my head and nose were so stopped up that I felt I must do something. Peruna was recommended to me by a friend. / used It for tour weeks and found to my relief that It cured me. I have not bad a bit of trouble since. My head Is clear, and / can safely affirm that Peruna cured me. ’’—Miss Flora Hauser. Hundreds of Women Cured by Pe-ru-na of Annoying Catarrh. DR.

He has made chronic catarrh a li/e-long Study. His remedy, popularly known as Peruna, is the most famous remedy for cat'rrh In existence. Probably there Is not a man or woman, boy or girl, within the bounds of the United States that has not heard of Pe runa. By far the largest majority have used Peruna. The multitude of people that have been cured of chronic catarrh by using Peruna can never be known. t Miss Flora Hauser. Many a girl has regained her faded beauty, many a matron has lengthened the days of her comely appearance by using Peruna.
