Would any sane person who really wanted to know about Peruna ask any
Of theso people? Of course not.
Who would they ask? They would ask mothers who have raised babies and
used Peruna for their babies times without number. They would ask the paronte
who love their families) and know more abont Peruna than all tho professional
Writers In tho world.
Above wo give tho portrait and testimonial of one of tho mot hers who has used
