Peterson Bros: I was afflicted with
a very severe sore on my leg for years.
I am a teamster. I tried all medicines

tried doctors. but they failed to cure
from pain. Doctors said 1 could not
live for more than two years. Finally
PeterSon's Ointment was recommended
to me and by its use the sore was en-
tirely healed. Thankfully yours, Will

Peterson's Ointment is 20 cents at

The delegates represent 100000

THE conference considers that the
