CURES catarrh of the stomach
Catarrh of ihc Stomach is Generally
Called Dyspepsia Something to
Produce Artificial Digestion
is Generally Taken
Hence Pepsin Pancrcatin and a Host
oi Other Digestive Remedies
Has Been Invented
These Remedies Do Not Reach tho
Seat of tho Difficulty Which
is Really Catarrh
I 1
X U S Senator M C Butler from
South Carolina w us Senator from
that State for two terms In a
recent letter to The IVruna Medicine
Co from Washington D C says
can recommend Peru no for dys
pepsia anil stomach trouble J have
been using your medicine for a short
period and I feel very much relieved
It is indeed a wonderful medicine be
sides a good tonic C Butler
The only rational way to euro dys
pepsia is to remove the catarrh Perunn
cures catarrh Icruna does not produce
artificial digestion It cures catarrh
and leaves thestomaeh to perform
in a natural way This is vastly
better and safer than resorting to arti
ficial methods or narcotics
Icruna has cured inure cases of dys
pepsia than all other remedies com
bined simply because it cures catarrh
wherever located J f catarrh is located
in the head ieruna cures it If catarrh
has fastened itself in tho throat or
bronchial tubes Tcrunacures it When
catarrh becomes settled in the stomach
Icruna cures it as well in this location
as in any other
Peruna is not simply a remedy for
dyspepsia IVruna is a catarrh remedy
Icruna cures dyspepsia bceaiiKe it is
generally dependent upon catarrh
