Suffered With Kidney and Liver Trouble
for Twelve Years—Pe-ru-na Cured
Him—Feels Better Than for Twenty
! Years.
Hon. William Watson Washburn,
President of the Louisiana Commercial
Club, and a very well known man of
Hew Orleans, La^ writes from 637 Canal
street:
** 1 am satisfied that there is not a finer
medicine placed before the public to-day
than Peruna. I have been troubled for
nearly twelve years with kidney and
11 ver trouble, and at times I have been a
pretty sick man, unable to attend to my
duties. I had about made up my mind
that no medicine could help me, when
one of your booklets was brought to my
office which I read in a leisure hour. I
then decided to give Peruna a trial and
found that I had at last secured the
-
; right medicine for me. For two months
I used it faithfully and then felt so well
1 was like a young man once more.
This was over a year ago and 1 have not
had any trouble since. Although I am
in the seventies I feel better and more
active than I did thirty years ago.”—
W. W. Washburn.
Most derangements of the kidneys are
due to catarrh of the kidneys. Peruna
is a catarrh remedy. This explains
why it is that Peruna cures a great
number of kidney diseases in which
the usual remedies fail.
If you do not receive prompt and satis
factory results from the use of Peruna,
write at once to Dr. Hartman, giving a
full statement of your case, and he will
be pleased to give you his valuable ad
vice gratia.

LETTER TO MR. V. Y.
COOK, NEWPORT, ARK.
Dear Sir: Mr Frank Robinson,
Titusville, Pa, bought Devoe
with a good deal of feeling
against the whole tribe of mixed
paints. Our agents there, Mes
srs. Kernochan & Co, got him to
do it. He says:
I am more than pleased with
the job. I had one-third of the
paint left-over. I know of sever
eral other jobs, a year old or
more, painted with Devoe, that
are wearing well.
What a pity we have to all go
through the same school, to find
out what paint to put on a house!
Experience teaches. Isn’t there
any easier way to learn?
Yours truly
F W Devoe & Co.

the pupils did not get panic
stricken. All of them and the
teachers were out of the build

ry. '_
