CATARRH
OF THE
STOMACH
Could Hardly Eat Gradually
Grew Worse. Relieved by
Peruna.
Mr. A. M.
Ikerd, Box 31,
West Bur
lington, Iowa,
writes:
“I had ca
tarrh of the
stomach and
small intes
tines for a
jig number of
« years. I went
if to a number
M of doctors and
got no relief,
a and f i n.a 11 y
one of my
doctors sent
me to Chi
cago, and I
met the same
fate. They
said they
could do noth
ing for me;
Mr. A. M. Ikerd. said I had
cancer of the
Btomach and there was no cure. I al
most thought the same, for my breath
was offensive and I cou'd not eat any
thing without great misery, and I grad
ually grew worse.
“Finally I concluded to try Peruna,
and I found relief and a cure for that
dreadful disease, catarrh. I took five
bottles of Peruna and two of Manaltn,
and I now feel like a new' man. There
is nothing better than Peruna, and 1
keep a bottle of it in my house all the
time,'* ^ _'fc

OBITUARY
Isabella Jane Booth Lawton was
born in Haywood county, Tenn., Sept.
9. 1839; died Jan. 9, 1912. Mrs. Law
ton was a daughter of William Arm
stead and Delia Jane Booth. She
was married to Dr. W. P. Lawton,
March 13, 18<52. The following May
she professed religion and joined the
M. E. Church. South, and lived a con
sistent Christian life. She was a con
stant sufferer for more than two years
and when the summons came she ex
pressed a willingness to go and be re
leased from her sufferings. The end
came very quietly, for she had only
fallen asleep.
lister Lawton loved her church and
her home was a place for preachers.
She used to take great interest in go
ing with her children to Sunday
school, three of whom preceeded her
to the other world. Five children and
a devoted husband survive her.
Mrs. Lawton was a woman of more
than ordinary intelligence and it was
interesting to lie in her company. It
was my privilege to know Sister Law
ton only a few months, but I had the
pleasure of being in her home a num
ber of times and always found her
manifesting the Christian spirit to
ward all in the home.
