During tho critical month of Septem ber I have had only a slight attack of hay fever or catarrh, which I get rid of by taking about three-fourths of a bottle of Pei una, while, for Instance, the nutumn of '97, during which time 1 had only redress to the remedies then known to me, I suffered for months. 1 have been entirely free from catarrh this nutmn with the exception of the nbove mentioned time. "J. N'aschold." Peruna Is a specific for hay fever, and should be taken during the whole season of the exposure to the cause; for, as long as the exciting cause re mains, no cure can be permanent. People who aro unable to change their location during the season or hay fev er will find Peruna a priceless benellt to them, as It meets every disagree able symptom exactly It Is always advisable to begin the use of Peruna a week or two before tho expected at tack of hay fever In old cases, where the nttack can be foretold, and thl3 will often prevent entirely the return of the disease.
