When You Feel
This Way

No one, as a rule, needs to be told
when he is sick. Nature is sufficient
~ emphatic to give that information
without help. But to know what really
ails you, and, better still, to know what
will relieve you, is then the important
question.
Do you have feeling of fulness or
weight in the stomach; bloating after
eating, belching of wind; dulness; loss
of appetite lnd~relish for food; a swell
ing OF stomach and bowels; hard work
in breathing; hard lumpish feeling in
the throat; sometimes nausea and
vomiting; pains around the heart; mel

Of nourishing the body, merely clogs the

Physicians and cooking experts have
long been seeking something to replace
lard, and repeated tests have finally
demonstrated that CottoIene, vegetable
oil cooking fat, is not only pure, nutri-
tious and wholesome as olive oil, but is
even more economical than lard. Such
