Good Advice for st. Johnsbury
Peopfe.

People in st. Johnsbury who have
constipation, sour stomach or gas
on the stomach, should use simple
buckthorn bark, glycerine, ETC., as
compounded in Adler-i-ka, the new
German appendicitis remedy. A
SINGLE DOSE brings relief almost
INSTANTLY because this simple
mixture antisepticizes the digestive
organs and draws off the impurities.

Writing, from the vicinity Daylu

he was an habItual coffee drinker and,
although he knew 1t was doing him

tically untitled him for his arduous
occupation, and kept him on couch
at home when IBIS duty did moi call
him out.
while in this condition Grape.Nuts
food was suggested to me and ! began
to use it. Although 1t was in the mid
die of winter and the Thermometer was
often below zero, almost my entire
living for about six weeks OF severe
exposure was on Grape.Nuts food with
little bread and butter and a cup
OF hot water till was wise enough
to make Postum my table beverage.
After the FIRST two weeks ] began
to feel better and during the whole
winter never lost a trip on my mail
route, frequently being on the road

how person could do the amount of
work and endure the fatigue and hard
ship as l did, on so small an amount
of food. But found my ne%aratlons
so perfectly satisfactory that have
continued tllem-uslng both Postum
and Gape-Nuts at every meal and
often they comprise my entire meal.
"AII my nervousness, lrritability
and insomnia have disappeared and
healthy, natural sleep has come back
to me. But what has been perhaps the
greatest surprise to me is the fact that
with the benefit to my general health
has come a remarkable improvement
in my eye-sight.
