Who cannot read the story told by weak, listless footsteps, dragging wearily to and fro? What a contrast to the strong, graceful movements of the wo- man who is in good condition. What makes the difference? Simply health. The world is made for well people. At work, in the home, in society—vigorous, | active women are the favorites, the successful ones. Health is woman’s right. It will bring her everything worth Living for. If she has not this priceless boon, she should strive for it. There is one relief open to all women. Itis Pe-ru-na, the spec- ific for catarrhal congestions, irri- | | | | tations, inflam- mations, weak- ening drains, painful irregu- larities, etc. As a rule, the ma- jority of diseases which make life a burden to wo- men spring from a debilitated or catarrhal condi tion of the sensi- tive membrane which lines the pelvic organs. Being a specific for all catarrhal conditions, Pe-ru-na easily corrects such disorders and brings about a normal, healthy condition even in cases which appear almost hopeless. It does not claim to be a cure-all or a wonderful restorer of lost youth. But it does claim to heal, strengthen and revitalize the mucous membrane which lines the entire body.
