A Chapter from Life.

On the Llncolnvile road, about two miles from

trlous farmer, we'll known throughout Waldo
County His word is as good as his bond He had
purchased a bottle of Sarsapara and had it in
his pocket when he entered orr office, to INQUIRE
about NUTRiOLA. After talking with him a lit
tie, he decided to set the Sarsapari la upon the
shelf, as we told him he would not need it or want
it after trying NUTRIOLA.
Mr.. Redman is SiXty-SeVen years old, had suffer-
ed with Jaundce for over thirty years. Doctoied
for it every spring and fall. Had some kidney

siderably better and my appetite gradually i'm
proving My wife told me to be sure and get her
box of NUTRIOLA, and guess will have one,
too So he bought two boxes OF NUTRIOLA, box
of SKIN FOOD, and cake of SOAP. He then
said, "My wife, who began using NUTRIOLA at
the same time did, has received great benefit. If
you could her she would tell you all about it,
So we told him we would come out and see her.
We went. On entering the neat little farm house,
we met lady of fifty seven, whose very face
beamed good will to all. Mrs. Redman was very
careful not to make any statements that were
not absolutely true. She said, "For years have
had at times dull pain at the pit of the stomach
extending through to my back. 1t would come on
at any time and while it would not last very long,
it would be very severe while it did last. | have
