the history of medical, science. The
medical profession had long been grop
ing to discover the meaning of th<6stub
born and distressing after-effects of la
grippe. All remedies seemed alike in
adequate.
As soon as Dr. Hartman announced
that it was his belief that the after-
effects of la grippe was simply sys
temic catarrh, a great advance was made
in the treatment of these cases, jt now
only remained to find a reliable nemedy«
for systemic catarrh. ^ .
Here a new difficulty arose. Catarrh
had been regarded .by many physicians
as a local disease and treated solely by
local remedies. fStich physician^ kaew-
of no systemic remedy for catarrh.
Other physicians regarded catarrh as a
blood disease and had been in the habit
of treating it with blood medicines,
which could be of no possible Use in
systemic catarrh.
for a time Peruna enjoyed the dis
tinction of being ^be only systemic ca
tarrh remedy known. It was not even
claimed by anyone that there was an
other remedy for this exasperating con-
4|goiu ; ■ ...
Since then, however, a great many
remedies have been proposed for sys
temic catarrh, and a great deal of val
uable ittnif£]H^fd}4n «xi>?riineiiy|hig,
with other remedies. But it still re
main? true that Feruna is the only spe-
eliteremedy tori the; aftereffects of la
grippe. The demand for this remedy,
m consequence of the present epidemic
of la grippe, is enormous.
. Mr. J ;P. Bowery, proprietor City Hotel
Albany, Texas, says: ‘"Being advised to
try Peruna for la grippe and asthma, I
did so with good results. I had been
feeling very unwell for a long time, and
had asthma quite bad till 1 came West,
when I got better of the asthma, but Was
not well. I tried a great many remedies
for it, but nothing was able to cure me.
“ I took three bottles of Peruna and 1
am happy tb say that it is the best mfed~
icine I ever used. I am satisfied that
Peruna is a good medicine, and as such
have commended i£j6o several of my
friends with good results; It is seldom
I give a testimonial, but I think this due
you. I hope others may be benefited
thrbtigh you and your medicines.”
