TOnall Health Talk
INDIGESTION
Also Known as Catarrh of The
Stomach.

This ailment is bred in the,stOm-
ach. 1t is the most common COM
plant affecting the human family.
1t is due to fast eating, by people
whose minds and energies are in
tensely occupied by cares and
troubles, and the nervous force is
exhausted, so that there is not
sufficient left to properly digest
food.
The proper remedy for this all
ment is Tonall. Tonall is especi-
ally made to relieve and restore all
persons who suffer from Indiges-
tion, Dyspepsia, and other ailments
arising from a disOrdered stomach.
The roots, Herbs and Barks all
purely vegetable are selected with
the greatest care, and are scientif-
cally compounded, and will be
found a most wonderful and eff
cient remedy and medicine for
such ailments.
In every package will be found
a copy of the analysis of Prof. Beck,
chemist of Franklin and Marshall
College, showing no poisonous
drugs used and less alcoholic con-
tent in percentage than any other
Proprietary medicine now on the
market in liquor form.

DO CANNING WITHOUT SUGAR

Save Sugar Famine and Put up Your
Fruit and Vegetables to Economic
To encourage the saving of fruit
and vegetables at time when the
supply of sugar is limited, a program
for canning without sugar is being
carried out this season by the United
States Department of Agriculture and
the State agriculture college through
the boys and girls club of the 80
Northern and Western States. FrL.ls
are put up IN boiling water instead of
syrup; unsweetened products are can
ned for pie filling; fruits are made
into syrup, which can be used in man
ways in place of sugar; and fruit
jnices are also preserved by sterlizing
them to be used later for making
jellies, jams, and marmalades The
juices are also for seasoning in gen.
eral cooking and for making bev-
erages. Sugar-beets clubs hsve been
organized among the boys and girls
in many localities, and instructions
are to be given in the making and use
of sugar-beet syrup.
