THE OLD FOLKS AT HOME
Are Never Without Peruna in the House
for Catarrh; Coughs and Colds.

MB. AMD MB8. PETEB HOFFMAN, ETLERT0WN, FA.
MB. PI
P.,
R. PETEB HOFFMAN, Kylertown, I
wat deaf for five years and could
find no help. I wae completely deaf;
wa afflicted with thortneu of breath,
bronchltla, trouble In the throat, to that
I wa In mltery. Through one of Dr.
Bartman' almanac I decided to try
Peruna, and bought a bottle.
"I took three bottles and now feel real
well; my hearing it good again; I can
breathe without difficulty; my throat ia
no longer inflamed. I followed all the
direction, and can now say that Dr.
Hartman' Peruna hat cured me.
"I recommend it to all tnSering with
catarrh. I am ttrenty-oae yean old,
autre an appetite again andean work.
I Mel ten yean younger. "
When old age comet on, catarrhal dls
eaie come alto. Systemic catarrh Is al
mott universal In old people.
This explain why Peruna hat become
eo Indispensable to old people. Peruna
la their safe-guard. Peruna it the only
remedy yet derived that meet these
cases exactly.
Such caset cannot be treated locally ;
nothing but an effective ayttemio rem
edy could cure them. This It exactly
what Peruna Is.

"I was tick for many years ; suffered
with the liver, stomach and kidneys. I
had seven doctors, but none could cure
me, as they did not know what ailed me.
"Every one who saw mo said that I
could not live very long. I began to take
Peruna and grew bettor every day. The
severe pains in the stomach have disap
peared. I am now well and bare a good
appetite. I am aeventy yean old and
can do my work without getting tired.
"Peruna la the beet medicine In the

Mr. Robert Metters, of Murdock, Bast

"I hid catarrh from my head all
through my system. I took Peruna until
I was entirely cured. I am eighty-three
and a half yeart old, and feel as young as
I did ten years ago.
"I visited recently among somo old
friends, who said I looked as young as I
did twenty years ago."
