NERVOUS PEOPLE.
Read tho Following Extract from One
of Dr. Hartman's Lectures.
t
Dr. Hartmnn, president ot tho Hnrt
mnn Sanitarium, In a recent lecture,
stated the following:
"Tho first tlimeulty I met with in tho
proper treatment of nervous prostra
tion Is to get my patients ild of tho
many nervines, stimulants and seda
tives to which they have usually be
como accustomed beforo consulting me.
It would he dlrtlcult to over-estimate
tho damage theso drugs do In such
cases. Bromides, valorlnates, chloral,
opium n every form, caffeine, cocaine,
and ninny others uro nil alike of great
Injury and of no possible good.
"To get all these and many other
tdmllar remedies from the patient and
Peruna In their stead Is the first thing
to bo accomplished. Shortly nftor Po
runa Is 'begun the appetite become
regular, tho hleep natural, nnd ovorv
disagreeable symptom Improved. Po
runa Is a perfect specino tor these
eases and Is absolutely Invincible.
There nro no fnllurrs whTO theso di
rections are faithfully followed. Thij,
Improvement Is prompt and the pa
tient can re3t assured thnt a perfect
euro will follow ti persistent use of It.
"Peruna contains no phosphorus,
strychnine, or quinine to temporarily
exalt the nervous system, but acts per
manently by restoring tho normal con
ditions. It contains no narcotic or
sedative, and does not derange the
action of any bodily function during
its use."
Mrs. A. E. Howe. Worthy Matron of
thu Chicago Chapter, No. 101. of the
Order of the Eastern Star, writes from
233 Rush street. Chicago, as follows:
"Perunn is a. rem
edy worthy of tic
highest prale. It
stiengthens t h .
weak organs by
s y a t omn tlcalty
building them up.
and never, as s
many nerve tonics
do, bringing disas
ter by over stimu
lation and excite
ment. "There is no medi
cine I know of that
Is so perfect a
healer for nil cases
of catarrh. T have
K. Hor.
often Uhed It my
self, and I have Induced a number of
my friends to take It, It Is Indeed n
friend to women, alleviating tn pains
peculiar to the sex. and restoring them
to strength and health." Mis. A. E.
Howe.
Insist upon having Peruna. Them
are no substitutes. Peruna cures by re
moving the cause. Nntuie does the
rest.
If you do not derive prompt and sat
Isfnctory results from tho use of Pqr
i una, write at once to Dr. Hartman,
giving a full statement of your case,
and he will bo pleased to give you his
valuable advice gtatls.
