exhausted. orders have been sent 70 the
home Office for more premiums. but these
have not yet arrived and only those who
have a large number of stamps can get
them redeemed until the new stock ar
rives.
The stock carried by the concern in
this city. according to Mr.. Warren, is q
large one and they were able TO take
care Of the customers under ordinary
conditions, but the last two days have
been record-breakers and about all small

PAW PAW.
Cured People Are Spreading
the News
That Paw Paw Cures Indigestion

Read What Your NeighbOrS Say and
Then Verify the Facts.

The curative qualities Of Paw Paw is no
longer a question. Skeptics and doubters
must admit that this new vegetable pepsin
is likely to reyolutionize the practice OF
medicine. There is no ''guess it will
cure, or perhaps il will cure. The
sworn testimony OF some Of our best known
citizens must stand as unimpeachable evil
dence. Hundreds Of people who received
free sample bottle Of Munyon's Paw
Paw have testified in the most positive
manner that they have been cured Of dys-
pepsia, indigestion and nervous troubles.
The testimonies thar have been published
are not from people living in other states,
but are from well-known citizens living
right here in our midst. They can be seen
and the testimonials can easily be verified.
Professor Munyon wants the public to
know the truth, and he asks those who
have any doubt Of the genuineness ofthese
testimonials to see the people themselves.
