Royer, 909 W. Washington treet, Morristown, Pa., writes: “My oldest daughter Malin da Royer,is cured of deafness by Peruna. When she began to take Peruna we had to go up close to her and talk very loud to make her hear. “After taking one-half dozen bottles of Peruna she can hear you in any part of the room. She can hear an ordinary con versation.” Thousands of people have ca tarrh who would be surprised to know it, because it has been called some other name than catarrh. The fact is, catarrh is catarrh wherever located; and another fact which is of equally great im portance, that Peruna cures ca tarrh wherever located. Catarrh is an American disease. Fully one-half of the people are afflicted more or less with it in some form. Previous to the dis covery of Peruna, catarrh was considered well nigh incurable. Since the introduction of Peruna to the medical profession thou, sands of cases are cured annually. Mr. W. M. Holland, of Hartwell, Ga„ proprietor of the Hartwell Tin Works, writes of Peruna as follows : “I am more than pleased with the benefits derived from Peruna. The winterof 1899my weight was 150*ponnds. I used several bottles during the winter and now weigh 211. “I have recommended it to all my friends both as a tome and catarrh cure. If I had been lucky enough to have seen it several years ago Peruna would have saved me much mconvenienee. l ean never be too thankful to you for the benefits received from your valuable remedy. My mother has also been won* de'rfully benefited by your valuable remedy.” t . Address The Peruna Medicine Co., Coljimbus, O., for free catarrh book. A PATEIAECH GONE- Mr. T. J.
