ALL AGES IN BONDAGE
TO CHRONIC CATARRH
All Classes and Conditions of
People Have Chronic
Catarrh.
Old men Have It, Young Men
and Young Women
Have It.,
MOTHERSAND GRANDMOTH
ERS HAVE IT.
Winter Weather Produces New
Cajcs and Aggravates Old
Cases of Catarrh.
C
ATARRIl Hpares neither strong nor
weak, old or young, sick or well.
All ranks of peoplo have chronic
catarrh: rloh men, poor men, beggar
men, thieves, lawyers, doctors, mer
chants, priests. Xot only catarrh of
the bend, but catarrh of thu throat,
catarrh of tho lungs, catarrh of the
stomach, catarrh of tho liver, catarrh
of thu kidneys, catarrh of the bowols,
and a multitude of women arc aflllctcd
with catarrh of the pelvlu organs.
Catarrh Is n word which Includes a
multltudu of diseases. Xenrly one-half
pf the dlseiis,eH to which the human
flesh Is liable, are, In reality, nothing
moro nor less than cutarrh In some
phase or location.
When It is said, therefore, that Pc
runa cures catarrh wherever located,
a much larger fact Is stated than at
first appears. If It bo true that Peruna
really does euro catarrh wherever lo
cated, what a multitude of diseases
Peruna will cure.
Who Is It that says Peruna will euro
catarrh wherever located? Doctors say
It, lawyers say It, preachers say It, a
vast army of men and women sav it
wno nave tried it. Tho old and the
young say It. They say It In the enst,
In tho west; they say It in tho north
mid the smith.
All these say that Peruna will euro
catarrh wherever located, and they say
it, too, without any solicitation, hesi
tation or renumcintlon. Xever was a
greater assertion crowded Into fewer
woids, Pcrun cures catarrh wherever
located.
Catarrh Patients Latoly Cured by Dr.
Hartman.
Thousands of people who know of
Peruna as a catarrh cure get It and
begin treatment. Some of these people
write to Dr. Hartman. Hundreds of
lettois are received by the doctor every
day. These lettuis are all piomptly
answered free. The cures arc numer
ous. These testimonials are not solic
ited und never published except by tho
wish of the ones writing them. Here
arc a rew of them:
A Housewife Cured of Pelvic Catarrh
Mrs. A. E. Stouffer, of Sabetha, Kan
sas, was troubled with headache, pal
pitation or the heart, pain 'In the side,
and female weakness ( pelvic catarrh).
When she wrote Dr. Hartman she hod
given up all hopes of ever being cured.
She took a course of Peruna, and says:
"Peruna bus given mo health and
strength: It is the best medicine that
was ever made for women. My friends
say they never saw such a change In a
woman. I talk to every one about Pe
runa. I cannot Miy too much for it."

unlimited number of llttlo wires which

"JCow, I don't know that I ilka thu

Ho was treated by a Rochester doctor
for catarrh of the throat; but his ca

He got so bad finally that he could
not breathe through his nose at nil,
caught cold easily, was always hawk

well. He followed rr. Hartman's ad

feels better than he ever did.

Peruna for Catarrh of the Kidneys.
Hon. Moses V. Crane, Secretary of
the Odin Lodge. Xo. 123, Independent
Order ot Odd Fellows, In a letter writ
ten from the Odd Fellows Hall. Ta
coron, Wash., says: "As nn honest
medicine that does all that It Is claimed
to do, 1 am glad to endorse Peruna. I
have had occasion' to observe the satis
factory results obtained from Its use
among the members of our Order and
others, especially In kidney and blad
der troubles, and diseases of the pelvic
organs.
"It affords speedy relief and satisfac
tory results, and the patient is nut
simply cured but tlays cured. Peruna
recuperates the entire system, and
makes you foel young and strong and
in full vigor. Try If. and you will
never regret It. It will not disappoint
you." Moses U. Crane.

"My little daughter, three years old,
was troubled with a very bad cough,
which remained after nn attack of ca
tarrhal fever, which was a great deal
worse nt night. Sho would wake up
out of her sleep and cough until I
feared she could not stand it. Nothing
that wo gave her seemed to do her any
good.
"I then concluded to send for Dr.
Hartman's book, entitled "The Ills of
Ijlfe," which I promptly received. I at
tho same time commenced giving her
Peruna. She has taken ono bottlo In
all, through which sho has obtained a
complete cure.
"She also since her birth was
troubled with indigestion, but since sho
has taken Pcrunu, she can eat almost
any kind of food without any bad r-
MlltS.
"Sho is now as well and happy as
any llttlo girl can 'bo. When our
friends sny how well sho looks, I tell
them Peruna did It. I shall aways bo
a friend of Peruna, as T consider It thn
best medicine for coughs and Indiges
tion we havo ever tried, and wil rec
ommend It to any one similarly af
flicted. If you do not deiivo prompt and sat
