Because It was used on over, forty thousand patients In private practice before it was advertised by the Inventor. Because it Is absolutely efficient in all cases. Because it contains no Inlurious ingredients of whatsoever character. Because it contains no whiskey, brandy or aaxotics of any character whatso ever. Because it has stood the test of popular approval for twenty-five years. Because it has been endorsed by the most prominent people in the world. Because it Is used In no less than two million homes In the United States today. Because it is the invention of the greatest catarrhal specialist In the world. These are the reasons that will continue to make Peruna the world's catarrh remedy without rival, without substitute. Be sure you get what you ask for. with customers and made new ones.
