PLANT juice MAN
TELLS THE STORY
Quotes Testimonial of Well
Known Washington Man
to Substantiate His
Claims.

AN attack OF indigestion or dyspepsia
are in themselves the simplest ailments
ina aginable, but If the truth was known
they. would often be found to be even
more dangerous than some of the most
terrible fevers," said The Plant Juice
Man, in a recent interview.
They may be trifiing, but they are
never-failing sign that the stomach Is
not performing its proper functions.
When the stomach is not properIy digest
ing the food, there is no limi to the
way affections can spread to eveEy organ
OF the body, producing intestinal poison
ing. rheumatism, liver and kidney trouble
and other distressing ailments.
PLANT Juice, the famous herbal stomach
remedy, Is invaluable in aiding such
cases. 1t acts Ike miracle, purifies
the blood. causes the food to digest per-
fectly, and puts the entire system in a
strong, healthy condition.
Only the other day, the following
signed statement was received from Mr..
Harry Carr, of No. SIS F street, N. W.,
well known Washington citizen. He
said:
II have suffered for some time with
my stomach and all the food ate would
ferment and cause gas to form; was
badly bloated and in the worst kind of
misery. had bad taste in my mouth
continually, was constipated, had head
aches and was very dizzy at times, due
to deransed liver; my kidneys bothered
me a good deal, and my entire system
was run down All the medicines 1 took
did not do me any good, and I read so
much about Plant Juice that 1 decided
TO give 1t Q trial 1 am now glad to
state that my troubles have all left me
and 1 am feeling like a new man; I have
good appetite and can eat anything
want without the least distress, 1 sleep
well; my bowels are regular and have
had no naors headaches I cannot sas
too much IN praise of Plant Juice for
what IL has done for me-"
The Plant Juice Man is at The Peoples
Drug Store, corner of Seventh and F.
streets. N. W., where he is daily meeting
the local public, and introducing and ex-
planning the merits Of this remedy.-Ady.
