Glowing Reports Of Marvellous Hap

Mr.. Harry Retzler, young mar
ried man living at No. 1o4 Broadway
Martins Ferry. Ohio, and who IS
employed at the Eetna Standard
mills. is another man who owes his
life to the remarkable Quaker Herb
Extract. Thursday evening Mr..
Retzler came to the drug store and
unwrapping a fruit jar he displayed
an immense ugly paraoite, complete
with head and alive, as 1t wriggled
in the jar. 1t measures about 80
feet in length. This tape worm was
expelled by him ssgesterday.s- after
using less than one bottle OF Quaker
Herb Extract. All who have seen
the monster admitted that it would
certainly have been an utter impos-
sibility for Mr.. RetzIer to have lived
with it in his system.
Mr.. Retzler said: For about
three years have suffered from
nervous and stomach troubles and
only today after passing this tape
worm do l realize what has been
causing my troubles. can hardly
describe my past feelings. would
wake up tired and seemed to have
lost my vim and energy. At times
u would have severe nervous spells,
headaches and dizzy sensations. Ny
appetite was changeable. good at
times, and sometimes poor 1 had
pains in my back and sides. My
heart also annoyed me. Some one
told me the cause was from the ex-
cessive use of tobacco, others said
1T was a chronic case of stomach
troubles, but the Quaker Herb Ex-
tract proved the real and only true
cause. I am now we'll and will be
only too glad to tell lalwho may call
on me how Quaker Herb Extract
saved my liffe.''
