Tw o years later was taken sick and bedfast several months. I treated a long while without much relief. I was dis couraged, my mind affected, so nervous I could neither eat or sleep and unable to do anything. W e tried several doctors but one after another gave up my case as hopeless. F n a lly a good friend advised me to try Pe-ru-na. I did. It relieved me almost immediately. Your medical department said I was suffering front chronic catarrh of the system. I began taking your medicine in March, 1914, and con tinued until August. I took ten bottles of Pe-ru-na and three bot tles of M an-a-lin and felt like a new person. Your medicine seemed like a gift from Heaven. It was like coming from darkness into light. W e have used your medicine since for coughs, colds and grip with good results. W e will always keep it on hand. I weigh twenty- five pounds more than I ever did, eat and sleep well and can do a good day’s work. Everybody says I look fine. Even the doctors are surprised.
