CLEARS TRAGEDY IN M I YORK CAB

Aged Witness Gomes Forward and Declares Actress Guiltless and

Young a Suicide.

Nervousness is very common among women. This condition is due to anemic nerve centers. The nerve centers are the reservoirs of nervous vitality. These centers become bloodless for w a n t of proper nutrition.

This i s especially true in the spring season. Every spring a host of invalids are produced a s the direct result of weak nerves.

This can be easi ly obviated by us ing Peruna. Peruna str ikes a t the root of the difficulty by correcting the digestion.

Digest ion furnishes nutrit ion for the nerve centers. Properly digested food furnishes these reservoirs of life w i t h vital i ty which leads to strong, s teady nerves, and thus nourishes life.

Peruna is in great favor a mo n g w o m ­en, especially those who have vocat ions that are trying to the nerves .

Peruna furnishes the last ing vigor for the nerves that such people need.

Thousands of test imonials from w o m e n in all parts of the Uni ted States are b e ­ing received every year. Such unsol ic i t ­ed evidence surely proves that Peruna is without an equal a s a nerve tonic and a vital invigorator.
