Paw Paw Made a New
Stomach For Him.
IT CURED HIM
Of Dyspepsia and Severe Stomach
Trouble.

Mr. Joseph Jefferson, veteran actor,
never discovers new plays, but he is
constantly discovering new ways of re-
newing health and of making millions.
Now he has discovered the Paw Paw.

known before, or that it hasn't been
used in just the way he is putting it to
use.

table as Mr.. Jefferson seemingly dis
covers anything, or takes hold of it
and loudly sings it's praises, that
thing is bound to become better
known.

tourists whom he knows what the

statement is true.
