LIKE A DEMON grip has crossed our
country , leaving behind scores of
physical wrecks.
Victims of catarrh of the head , catarrh
of the throat , catarrh qf the lungs ,
catarrh of the stomach , catarrh of the
kidneys , catarrh of the pelvic organs ,
are to be counted by hundreds of thou
sands. Grip is epidemic catarrh , and
sows the seeds of chronic catarrh within
the system.
This is so true that few grip sufferers
are able to make a complete recovery
until they have used Peruna.
Never in the history of medicine has
a remedy received such unqualified and
'universal ' eulogies as Peruna.

from 15 Western avenue , Minneapolis ,

"Following a severe attack of la grippe

suffered with a severe backache , indi

neither eat nor sleep , and I thought I
would give up my work , which I could
not afford to do.
"One of my customers who was greatly
helped by Peruna advised me to try it ,
and I procured a bottle the same day. 1
used it faithfully and felt a marked im

It is no wonder that Mrs. Helena Rath was taken sick.
Single-handed , she did all the housework and washed , cooked and
mended for her husband , Hans , and their six children. After a
plucky fight to keep on her feet , Mrs. Rath had to yield , and early
in 1902 she took to her bed. What followed she told to a visitor ,
who called at her tidy home , No. 821 Tenth Ave. , New York City.
"I hired a girl to mind the chil
dren and to do whatever else she
could. I couldn't stay in bed long.
Sick as I was , it was easier for mete
to crawl around than to lie and
worry aboui my little ones. So
I got up after a few days , and let
the girl go. I had noticed that she
had sores on her face , hands and
arms , but I paid no attention to that
until Charlie , raj youngest , began to
pick and scratch himself. lie was
then ten months old , and the girl
had paid more attention to him than
to any of the others. Charlie was fret
ful and cross , but as he was cutting
teeth , I didn't think much of that.
Even when a rash broke out on his
face I wasn't frightened , because
everybody knows that that is quite
common with teething babies. Sev
eral of my others had it when little ,
and I thought nothing about it.
"But the rash on Charlie's poor
little face spread to his neck , chest ,
and back. I had never seen any
thing quite like it before. The skin
rose in little htnps , and matter
came out. 7 ! y baby's skin was hot ,
and how he did suffer ! lie wouldn't
eat , and night after night I walked
the floor with him , weak as I was.
Often I had to stop because I felt
faint and my back throbbed with
pain. But the worst pain of all waste
to see my poor little boy burning
with those nasty sores.
'I believed he had caught some
disease from the girl , but some of
the neighbors said he had eczema ,
and that is not catching , they told
me. Yes , I gave him medicine , and
put salves and things on him. I
don't think they were all useless *
Once in a while the itching seemed
to let up a bit , but there was not
much change for the better until a
lady across the street asked me why
I didn't try the Cuticura Remedies.
I told her I had no faith in those
things you read about in the papers.
She said she didn't want me to go
on faith nor even to spend any
money at first. She gave me some
Cuticura Ointment I think the
box was about half full and a
piece of Cuticura Soap. I followed
the directions , bathing Charlie and
putting that nice Ointment on the
sores.
"I wouldn't have believed that
my babv would have been cured by
a little thing like that. Not all of a
sudden , mind you. Little by little ,
but bo surely. Charlie and 1 both
got more peace by day , and more
sleep by night. The sores sort of
dried up and went away. I shall
never forget one blessed night when
I went to bed with Charlie beside
me , as soon as I got the supper
dishes out of the way and the older
children undressed : when I woke
up the sun was streaming in. For
the first time in six months I had
slept through the night without a
break.
The agonizing , itching , and burning of the skin as in eczema ;
the frightful scaling , as in psoriasis ; the loss of hair , and crusting
of the scalp , as in scalled head ; the facial disfigurements , as in
pimples and ringworm ; the awful suffering of infants , and anxiety
of worn-out parents , as in milk crust , tetter and salt rheum , all
demand a remedy of almost superhuman virtues to successfully
cope with them. That Cuticura Soap , Ointment , and Resolvent
are such stands proven beyond all doubt. No statement is made
regarding them that is not justified by the strongest evidence.
The purity and sweetness , the power to afford immediate relief ,
the certainty of speedy and permanent cure , the absolute safety
and great economy have made them the standard skin cures , blood
purifiers and humour remedies of the civilized world.
