PLANT JUICE GAVE
IMMEDIATE RELIEF
WeIl-KnoWn Washington Lady
Relates How the New Rem
edy Benefited Her.

Forward to Nature" is the slogan
which is now being used in the Wash
ingtOn Plant Juice campaign. 1t is
expressive of good. for there Is no
preparation which comes as near put
ting back into men and women the
vital forces which have left them by
reason Of sickness and overwork.
There is no. theory about the bene-
fits derived from Plant Juice. the
new herbal stomach remedy. Every
day local people are coming forward
with statements relating the great
benefit they have received.
Recently, the signed Testimonial OF
Mrs. n. Rabbit, OF No. 1912 y street
n. W.. a well known and popular
said:
For several years I have suffered
with stomach trouble and an I'M
poverished condition OF my blood; my
circulation was very poor. and al
ways felt tired and worn out; my food
fermented in my stomach and gas
ate anything. and dreaded to take
food into my stomach; l was so
nervous that / could never sleep at
night. and my liver was badly de-
ranged which made me very dizzy at
times: my kidneys were affected and
l had taken ali kinds of medicine.
but nothing gave me any real beneht
until | started to rake your Plant
Juice. That seemed to be the medi-
cine that l needed. for 1t toned my
entire system up and made a new
woman of me. | eat and sleep well,
and have no trouble with constipa-
ton. l can't say too much in praise
OF your Plant Juice for what II has
done for me. My husband is taxing
1t also for his stomach. and thinks
II is fine"

and on retiring. 1t attacks and de-
stroys all poisons in the blood, cor

gram he sent to w. P. Raglan, mayor
Of High Point, few days ago. con-
corning the $4,000 which Pete An:
tonakos of that city, had offered
as a reward for the kaiser, dead or
alive. MIR. Henley states that he
does not wish to duplicate the Greeks
offer and thinks that such an offer
is a pretty poor evidence of patriot
ism. and there is hardly prospect
of ANYBODY taking the kaiser either
dead or alive for some time to como
at least. The proposition Mr.. Henley
wished to submit to Antonakos was
that each of them invest $4,000 in
Liberty loan bonds and thereby rem
der much more valuable aid in catch
ing the kaiser than to offer reward
for him. The $25 mentioned by Mr..
Henley was merely a premium Of
fered to induce the Greek to change
his mind and buy Liberty loan bonds
instead of offering $4,000 for such
an uncertain proposition as catch
