closed by hills. For several years

of the goats were killed or crippled.

ing of ice such as was never before
seen in Indian territory. It covered

MISS FLORENCE KENAH.
This Pretty
Girl Saved
From
Catarrh
of the
Lungs By i
Pe-ru-na. ;
Miss Florence E. Kenah. 434 Maria street. Ottawa, Ont., writes:
"A few months ago l caught a severe cold, which settled on my lungs and re-
mained there so persistently that I became alarmed. I took medicine without
benefit, until my digestive organs became upset, and my head and back began
to ache severely and frequently,
“I was advised to try Peruna, and although I had little faith I felt so sick that
I was ready to try anything, it brought me blessed relief at once, and I felt
that I had the right medl.ine at last. Within three weeks I wes completely
restored and have enjoyed perfect health since.
••I now have the greatest faith in Peruna. ” Florence E. Kenah.
WOMEN SHOULD
BEWARE OF
CONTRACTINU CATARRH.
The cold wind
and rain, slush
and mud of win-
ter are especially
conducive to ca-
>. Few women
tarrhal derangement
escape.
Upon the first symptoms of catching
cold Peruna should be taken. It fortifies
the system against colds and catarrh.
Pe-ru-na for Colds and Catarrh.
The following' interesting letter gives
one young woman’s experience with
Peruna.
Miss Rose Gerbing. a popular society
woman of Crown Point. Ind.. writes:
‘ Recently I took a long drive in the
country, and being too thinly clad I
caught a bad cold which settled on my
lungs, and which I could not seem to
skake off. I had heard a great deal of
Peruna for colds and catarrh and I
bought a bottle to try. I am pleased
that I did, for it brought speedy relief.
It only took about two bottles, and I
consider this money well spent.
“You have a tirra friend in mo. and I
not only advise its use to m3’ friends,
but have purchased several bottles to
give to those without the means to buy,
and have noticed without exception
that it has brought about a speedy cure
wherever it has been used.’’—Rose
Gerbing.
Pe-ru-na Contains No Narcotics.
One reason why Peruna has found
permanent use in so many homes is that
it contains no narcotic of an}* kind.
Peruna is perfectly harmless. It can
be used any length of time without ac-
quiring a drug habit. Peruna does not
produce temporary results. It is perma-
nent in its effect.
It has no had effect upon the system,
an<l gradually eliminates catarrh by re-
moving the cause of catarrh. There are
a multitude of homes where Peruna has
been used off and on for twenty .years.
Such a thing could not be possible if
Peruna contained any drugs of a nar-
cotic nature. •
