HER DAUGHTER HAD

AFTER STARTING TO TAKE PLANT

ALMOST I'M M EDlhT ELY.

We Americans have many serious
nroblems to confront, but the most
important of these is proper santa
tion to safeguard our health. 1t was
with the hope of benefting those who
have had TO endure these unSanitary
conditions until they have forced Seri-
GUS inroads into their health, that
Plant Juice, the new herbal system
tonic, which acts as a germ.com6a Blatant
and us6ue-builder, was placed upon
the market. 1t is indeed gratifying TO
note the remarkable results that have
been achieved BY this preparation.
Recently, Mrs. Gustave Bohlman,
who resides at No. 2419 Brown Street.
Milwaukee, Wis, came out with the
following signed statement. She said:
my daughter when about two years
old, was taken with terrible cramps in
her bowels, and her stomach WAS in
such a weak condition that she was
never able 10 eat any solid food for
about 10 years and had 10 live On
bread and milk. She had taken treat
ments and tried all sorts of medicines,
but nothing did her any good. Her
limbs we're so weak that she could
hardly stand on her feet and the mu-
cous from her stomach almost choked
her at times. We had read about Plant
Juice In the daily papers and the good
II was doing in our city. 50 got a bot
tie for her TO lake. After she began
to take Plant Juice SHE started to pick
right up. and now. after taking sev-
eral bottles, her bowels are in fine
condition, she can eat any kind Of
food and has fine appetite for her
meals. She can now talk again, rs
she had lost her speech for a while,
and can walk As we'll as any one.
Plant Juice is the only medicine that
cured her
Plant Juice is sold in Wheeling by
all druggists.
