IIARTMAN, Columbus, Ohio, Gentlemen: Some time since, I had occa sion to doubt the genuineness of most of the articles that appear in different papers in regard to your wonderful PERUN A, and my curiosity was so great that I deter mined to write to one of the many people that claimed to have been cured by this medicine, and accordingly wrote to Mrs. J. W. Reynolds, of New Lisbon, this county, and received the following reply." M I received your letter this evening, and in reply would say that PERUNA, I be lieve, saved my life, and I can not recom mend it too highly; for all complaints it is the best medicine in existence. It seems to help you as you 6wallow it. I would advise any one suffering from my complaint to take PERUNA and be con vinced. Yours truly, Mrs. J. W. Rey nolds." Now, that's her card, word for word, and as I am well acquainted with the lady, I do not believe 6he would lie. It is truly wonderful how your medicine does do good. James L. Mooney, Prospect, Ohio, writes : 44 For the past ten years I have been suffering from constipation and dyspepsia, and all the evil effects that accompany them. I was treated by a number of doctors, all to no effect I used several patent medicines, which did me no good, and about three years ago I was seized with a severe nervous trouble, and was obliged to quit farming, I thought my days would soon be over, but last winter I received one of your pam phlets called the " Ills of Life. lat once tried your PERUNA and MANALIN. They helped me right away. I used nine bottles of PERUN A and three of MANALIN; and now I am quite well, and able to resume farming. I also had a little child which was attacked with a severe cramp in the stomach ; we thought it would go into spasms. I used nothing but PERUNA. We gave it an injection of PERUNA and warm water, and gave it a teaspoonful of the medicine internally every half hour. It was relieved in one hour, and has not been bothered since. I have also used it with as good effect in case of croup and colds. I know that it is a wonderful medicine, and recommend it to all who are in poor health. The above statement I am willing to swear to." W. M. Plants, Deep Valley, Greene county, Pa., writes: 44 Please send me your book on the 4 Ills of Life.'
