'-t Mrs. Charles Steinecke, Stoughton, "Wis., writes: "My experience with Peruna has been most pleasing. By carelessly leaving a heated ball room I got thoroughly chilled and caught a heavy cold which settled on my Inngs. I wore a protector, and took many remedies for cold without success. Wllh my other troubles I had catarrh of the head. Peruna was recommended to me, and I bought a bottle and soon began to improve, and kept on taking It asd It cured me from all my troubles, I am pleased to testify to Its merits." Mrs. Charles Steinecke. e.. A Great Manufactory. The plant of The Peruna Drus Manu facturing Company is, the largest pro prietary medicine manufactory In the norld. Its buildings arc of the most modern and expensive kind, including within them pharmaceutical apparatus equal to any establishment of the kind In the world. Much of the chemical paraphernalia has been made expressly for the manufacture of Peruna and repre sents many of the latest inventions. The plant covers a large area In the the buildings in the point of architec ture and material are the finest struc tures in the State of Ohio. Xo expense cr pains hae been spared to make Pe runi one of the most scientific and pharmaceutical products the world has I eer known. The rapid growth of The Peruna Drug Marufucturlng Company Is as phenom enal in the business world as the uni versal popularity of their famous rem edy, Peruna. A Usit to its busy laboratories, bot tling and shipping rooms, constitutes one of the sights of the city. Hundreds of Isi'ors are conducted through the estab j l'shment eery month, where every thing concerning the manufacture of , tPcruna that can be comprehended by , rso nonprofessional visitor is fully ex- Kained. i nLAltnouga Peruna Is a proprietary , "TO, the details of its compounding . are no secret, and nothing gies Dr. m iiartman greater pleasure than to show t ;Lm.a?y frlends ot Peruna all of the ssenal processes by -which Peruna Is j made. , A Doctor'6 Prescription. Teruna; TOS manufactured as a SSh25rT12rlc,ne' ll had b"n Pre scribed by Ir. Hartman for many years. The Doctor used to practlcT S and was probably one of the largest practitioners in the state where he be longed. Eery day he found himself writing his favorite prescription for ca tarrh and all catarrhal ailments. "With very little change this prescription was used year after -ear. So frequently did he hae occasion to write the formula for Peruna that he could do it in the dark with his ejes shut. People would take the prescription to the drus store, where they would pro cure the medicine. Unfortunately, one tr-rhing City of Columbus, and many of j dru,K.l,st ould Put UP the prescription little differently than another drug gist. The color would not be the same, or possibly the taste would be a little different. One druggist would fix Pe runa so that there would be a little sedi ment in it. while another would com pound It in a way to maintain it per fectly clear. For years Dr. Hartman used Peruna in his private practice as a regular pre scription, and had no thought of manu facturing and advertising It as a pro prietary medicine. Forty Thousand Patients. Dr. Hartman estimates that he must have prescribed Peruna for over forty thousand patients before It was ader tised as a proprietary medicine. In fact, circumstances forced Dr. Hartman to manufacture the remedy himself in order to Insure a standard of purity and a uniform appearance. Peruna needed no advertising In the section where the Doctor practiced medi cine. Already thousands of people knew of Its good qualities. This Is ex actly what has happened In every other locality where Peruna has been used. It 15 not like so many other remedies that pass away as soon as the llrst few bottles are used. The longer Peruna Is used In any community, the more popu lar It becomes. .. Pe-ru-na Actually Cures. The reason why Peruna has become a standard catarrh remedy the world over Is simply because It cures catarrh. There Is no other possible explanation of It. It is simply idle talk for any one to pre tend that advertising can create a popu larity for a medicine equal to that of Peruna. If Peruna did not cure catarrh, people would soon find it out. Perhaps a well worded advertisement might sell a bot tle of Peruna, even though Peruna were no good. But, after a person has bought one bottle of a useless medicine, no ad vertisement can Induce him to buy tho second, bottle. If, on the other hand, he finds the medicine to be what It is rec ommended, then he requires no further argument or inducement. This exactly explains rrhy Peruna hns become so popular. It cures ca tarh. This Is nn amply sufficient rea son Trhy it should become popular. Ca tarrh is almost nnlvertaL Catarrh is difficult to cure. The doctors do not care to treat cases of catarrh at all. It .therefore follorvs that when a remedy is devised that can be used by any one in tbe home at a moderate cost, such a remedy should inevitably become popular. Pe-ru-na Contains No Narcotics. There are a great many catarrh cures in the world. The most of them are local applications. Few of them are to be used internally. Unfortunately, a large number of these catarrh remedies, especially the ones prescribed by the doctors, contain narcotics of some sort. Cocaine, opium, whisky, and other nar cotics are used. These remedies give temporary relief. The patient thinks he is better right away. In a few weeks, however, "he discovers his mistake. Not only is his catarrh no better, but he has acquired the habit .of using some nar cotic. This happens in a multitude of cases. Such remedies cannot succeed. People find them out very quickly. One reason why Pcrnna has found permanent use in so many homes is that it contains no narcotic of any kind. Peruna is perfectly harmless. It 'can be used any length of time without ac quiring n drug habit. Peruna does not produce temporary results. It is per manent in its effect. It has no bad effect upon the system and gradually eliminates catarrh by re moving the cause of catarrh. There are a multitude of homes where Peruna has been used off and on for twenty jears. Such a thing could not be possible If Peruna contained any drugs of a narcotic nature. Popular for Twenty-Five Years. Peruna has been before the public as a catarrh, cure for about twenty-five years. Previous to that time it was the private prescription of Dr. Hart man. For tweaty-Eve years Peruna has stood the test of every opposition. Made In large quantities to supply the immense demand for it, it requires the utmost villgance to maintain the purity and excellence of every single bottle. Sent as It Is to the cold. Wintry climate of the North, or the hot, torrid climate of the South, Peruna must be so prepared that neither cold nor heat can change Its composition or alter Its appearance. North, South, East and "West, car-loads of Peruna are being rapidly conveyed to their destination by hundreds of rail roads. Not a single bottle of this vast amount contains a speck of Impurity or the -slightest difference In composition. Tho contents of every bottle are exactly alike. All these difficulties have been overcome and Peruna Is furnished to over two million homes, each bottle Is spotless purity and pharmaceutical integrity. No medicine that the world has ever produced has received the unqualified Indorsement of so many prominent peo ple as Peruna. All classes praise Pe runa. People of National " prominence, who are busy with professional and of ficial affairs, do not usually take time to write letters of commendation. But Peruna arouses such enthusiastic ap proval as to break down all precedents In this particular. It Is no wonder when one stops to think of It. Catarrh is an insidious disease. While It does not often make -zr Tic xmtiVAm 4 SCiVT'lV--iA.-' fiirjL' ! Miss Schaetzei's Condition Was Serious. Pe-ru-na Cured Her ifflSSELLAHMlLLERj toTXHEWonDC Miss Josle Schaetzel, R. H.

Every f morning I would raise a lot of phlegm, which was very disagreeable. My digestion was poor and my I lungs sore. After a few doses of Peruna, I began tot mend, ond felt that if I kept on taking it, it would not be long until I would be well. I was right, for? In four weeks I was well again.

It becomes a drag and a drain from the vitality, a disfigurement as well as an annoyance. To be rid of such a disease after repeated failures to cure It, Is sure to awaken feelings of unrestrained gratitude. No ordinary Inducement would have secured the consent of senators, governors, congressmen, consuls, bishops, prominent physicians and clergymen of all creeds. Nothing but cure could avail to procure such testimonials. y a a amammm ' Miss Kathryn Allan, 374S Olive' Street, St. Louis, Mo., writes: I "I am pleased to add my indorsement to the many you must hate for j yoHr valuable remedy, for most every one whom I speak to has either taken f Perana or is satisfied that it is a splendid medicine.
