1t is common saying In Omaha
that Kinks Eos has captured the city.
There is no corner so obscure that
Kinks Eos elixir of Soap Is not
known. The popularity of this prep
aration is regarded by most people as
phenomenal, considering the short time
that has elapsed since its introduction
into this city. But when its great
merit and value are considered it does
not seem strange-in fact, it is but nat
ural that it should have achieved the
popularity that it has.
The testimonials which have fire.
qucntly appeared in this paper, from
people living right in the city OF
Omaha, have proved conclusively that
not one word has been said in praise
of Kinks Eos which has not been sub
stantiated by prominent people whom
you all know.
This is what the people say about it:
Mrs. DR.. j. Il. Hertzman of 516 North

to say of Kinks Eos:
