Catarrh of the Stomach
a Prevalent Disease
Difficult to Relieve.
A PROMPT AND EFFICIENT REMEDY.,
Mr. S. W. Jackson, S15 Weaver Bloek
Greenville, Ohio, says: ‘‘While I waa
superintendent of construction of J.F.
Bender and Bros.’ Co., of Hamilton,
Ohio, I became entirely unfit for busi
ness with catarrh of tho stomach.
“A friend called my attention to a
remedy for this condition* X began to
improve at once. I wa* soon able to re
turn to my former profession,
‘‘It would require many pages to de
scribe the condition I was in and the re
lief I have obtained.’'
Here is another case. Officer George
Y. Stout, 721 North Broadway, paltl-
more, Md., says: ‘‘I suffered very much
with catarrh of the stomach and ner
vous indigestion. I lost fifty pounds in
four months.
••A friend called my attention to a
remedy, whloh I used, and gradually
got well. I have gained half my lost
weight back again.”
Chronio Stomach Trouble.
Mr. Robert J. Gillespie, 898 South
Main St., Los Angele*, Cal., secretary
of Lather’s International Union, waa
also suffering from catarrh ot the stom
ach along time. He grew thinner and
paler, lost all ambition and appetite.
Sick at the stomach, Indigestion con
tinually.
A friend aim called hla attention to
a remedy, which brought about a de
cided improvement. After continuing
the nso of the remedy for a month, be
eonaldera himself permanently relieved,
Now, once more. Mr. Christian Hof-
man, Slatington, Pa., says he suffered
for many years with catarrh of the
stomach. It produced a miserable
cough, day and night. He tried doctor*
and many remedies. At last hla atten
tion was called to a remedy, the aame
remedy that relieved tho others which
have been referred to above. He clal ma
that he was entirely rid ot his stomach
difficulty.
Pe-rn-na Brought Back Health.
What was the remody that has
wrongbtthls remarkable relief? Solar,
tho remedy has not been mentioned.
If any one doubts the correctness of
these statements it la very easy to ver
ify them by writing to the people whoso
names have been given, enclosing a
stamp for reply.
Tha remody la within the reach’ Of
every ono. It la almply the good, old
standard reliable remedy known as
Parana.
If the truth wore known, the proba
bilities are that Pernna has rolieved
as many cases of catarrh ot tha stomach
aa any other popular remedy in axis,
tence. We have a great many nnsolto-
itod testimonials from all parts of the
United States, deolaring in strong and
enthnsiastlo terms that Pernna has en
tirely relieved them of catarrh of the
stomach, that they were wretched aai
miserabls beyond words, bnl Pernna
has restored them to health, vigor and
happiness.
These are the facta. Now, if you have
stomach difficulty, it is np to you to set
upon them or Ignore them, as yon
please.
Symptoms of Stomach Catarrh.
‘The affection may result from errors
In diet, or the use ot alcohol. The ex
cessive use of tobacco, especially when
the Juice or the leaves are swallowed.
