Toronto is 0110 of the , -most beautiful cities in the world. It is a oily of
i homes and churches, a city of intelligence and good government, a city
of healthful climate and beautifl scenery.
Among the many beautiful homes which make up the city of Toronto, is
the home of J. E. Carson, 218 St. Clarens avenue. In this home Peruna is re•
vered as a family medicine.
Peruna can boast of being a fixture in over a million of such happy
homes on this continent, where it is used, for the petty ailments that afflict
the family.
Coughs and colds, catarrh of the head and throat, sore throat in various
forms, disturbances of digestion, catarrh of the stomach, and other internal
organs. These ailments, petty in themselves, are often the beginning of very
serious diseases.
A dose or two of Parana taken in the beginning may quickly avert tedi-
ous if not fatal illness.
Heed Stopped Up
Mr. O. W. Martin, Hartford, Ontario,
choir leader at St, Paul's Episcopal
Ohurch, writes:
"I have been troubled with catarrh
for a great many years, and always try-
ing something for it, but was able only
to secure temporary relief until I used
Peruna. Only five bottles rid my system
of all traces of catarrh, and I have not
ootdwd the ,lightest trouble for several
months. My hoed was stopped up, my
breath offensive and it L a relief to be
able to'breathe freely once more-"
Lungs and Bronchial Tubes
Mr. J. C. Bemis Pelletier, Dept. de
1' Agriculture, Ottawa, Ont., write;
"The Peruna is particularly efficacious
in the euro of catarrhal affections of the
lungs and bronchial tubes.
"Six bottles cured me this winter of
