Pe-ru-na and Man-a-lin. I have been
afflicted, more or less, for a quarter of
a century with catarrh of the stomach
and constipation; a residence in Wash

A few bottles of your medicines have
given me almost complete relief, and [
am sure that a continuation of their
use will effect a permanent cure.
Pe-ru-na is surely a wonderful rem
edy for catarrhal affections.
