Tbis sterling household remedy is most
successfully prescribed for a "world of
troubles." For derangements of the di
gestive organs it is a natural corrective,
operating directly upon the liver and ali
mentary canal, gently but persistently
stimulating a healthful activity. Its
beneficial influence extends, however, to
every portion of the system, aiding in the
processes of digestion and assimilation of
food, promoting a wholesome, natural
appetite, correcting sour stomach, bad
breath, irregularities of the bowels, con
stipation and the long list of troubles
directly traceable to those unwholesome
conditions. Kasparilla dispels drowsi
ness, headache, backache and despond
ency due to inactivity of the liver,
kidneys and digestive tract. It is a
strengthening tonic of the highest value.
If it fails to satisfy we authorize all
dealers to refund the purchase price.

"I have been troubled with catarrh

tried many cures for it, but obtained
very little help.
"Then my brother advised me to try
Peruna, and I did.
"My health was very poor at the
time I began taking Peruna. My
throat was very sore and I had a bad
cough.
"Peruna has cured me. The chronic
catarrh is gone and my health is very
much improved."
