Pepgen stands on its record. Judge
it by proved results. What it has
done for others let it also do for you.
This paper contains many statements
from grateful people who have used
Pepgen.a This is not the only evidence
for there are numerous other cities
containing strong evidence today. Be-
sides there is multitude of unpub-
lished reports. They are coming in
all the time. Scores Of citizens in
Indianapolis, Muncie, Terre Haute and
Dayton, as we'll as Richmond and
cities and towns throughout the coun-
try cannot find words to express their
faith in Pepgen, the great non-secret,
non-alcoholic family tonic.
Among those who have recently
volunteered their experiences for the
benefit of their friends and others
who are likewise troubled are Mr.. and
Mrs. William T. Cook, 532 South 18th
Street, Richmond. Mrs. Cook tells the
following story:
For years l had rheumatism in my
limbs. There were times that my
limbs were so swollen and stiff that I
could scarcely move and they were so
sore that it was agony for me to bear
the weight of bed clothes.
"As for my husband he was trou-
bled with nervous dyspepsia. His
food distressed him and made him
feel bloated. Even though he was
very careful what he ate he suffered.
There were some foods he didn't dare
eat. If he did his misery would be ten
fold.

training and discipline at medical college was
accepted with reserve and skepticism in circles
where "yarbs and teas" were the panacea for all
maladies. He had to fight against prejudice and
opposition to win the confidence of his patients.
The county agent-doctor of soils, diagnostician
of all the ailments Of agriculture to battle
against prejudice arising from the same source,
namely, misconception of his motive and work.
until the war came along, forcing intensive farm
ing to produce the crops required for our sus-
tenance and the support Of our allies. Then he
came into his own with vengeance. The county
agent, with his mental equipment and scientific
knowledge of basic factors in crop production
coupled with his practical experience regarding
farm methods, became an important person in
the community. His place will no longer be dis
puted in any community where ordinary intel
ligence prevails.

1--WE were near the brink of des-
pair when we started to take Pepgen
but now, we are about the happiest
pair in Richmond Yes, we both feel
splendid. We became acquainted
with Pepgen through reading some of
the advertisements. We didn't think
we would ever be giving our own
statements for publication but Pepgen
is SO much better than we expected
that we feel it is duty we dare not
shirk to tell our experience.
"All-every one,-of my rheumatic
pains have left me. The swelling has
gone down and the stiffness in my
limbs has disappeared. It is a pleas
ure for me to do my house work and
right here I want to say plainly and
candidly, to every woman who don't
like house work that they had better
try Pepgen for it certainly makes you
feel strong and full of energy I I'M

l am sweeping, cooking and washing
the dishes.
my husband eats heartily Of what
he wishes without any misery after
wards. We have both gained
strength"
If your stomach, kidneys, liver or
nerves are not in good condition try
Pepgen today. 1t may be obtained at
Thistlethwiate's drug stores, or from
any other first-class drug store in
Richmond and nearby towns.

Seed Corn

Reports from Indiana counties to the Purdue
seed corn selection committee indicate that in
some, counties 80 per cent of the farmers have
gathered seed corn for next years planting. The
reports are so excellent that c. Henry, state
leader, feels warranted in saying There will be
no shortage of seed corn in Indiana next spring
as there was last, judging from the amount Of
corn gathered and stored properly this fall. Re-
ports from nearly all the counties show that a
great majority of farmers went into the fields
before corn cutting and selected the best samples
for seed purposes Those who practiced field Sc
lection stored it properly SO that it is dry enough
that freezing weather will not hurt it.
Indiana farmers learned a valuable lesson last
spring when scarcity of seed corn and high prices
drove home the importance of seed selection and
storage in the fall Airepetition of last years
worries will not be in order. @s
The war has been fruitful Of many lessons in
experience and observation that will rebound to
the benefit of the nation. Farmers who formerly
scoffed at county agents, looking upon them as
dude farmers" have been taught to appraise the
value of scientific principles applied to agricu-
ture and to listen to the advice of the young men
who have studied farming from a new angle.
A county agent is valuable addition to the
professional life of a community. He brings to
agriculture the same experience that doctor Of
medicine brings to the art of healing. Time was
when YARDS and teas" and homemade salves
and remedies were considered sufficient for any
ailnlent that might attack member of the fam

DOOR BELL SOUNDED LIKE AN
ANVIL, RICHMOND WOMAN SAYS;
NOISE BADLY STARTLED HER
Mrs Haworth Shook Like She Was
Having Severe Chill.
COULDN'T CONTROL NERVES

Any person who is nervous will do
well to read what Mrs. Sarah H. Ha-
worth, 725 S. w. "A" Street, Richmond
says about Pepgen, the new tonic
which is being introduced by Thistle
thwaite and other first-class druggists
in this city and nearby towns.
Mrs. Haworth furnishes an excel
lent example, Of what Pepgen is doing
for hundreds OF people. She tells the
following story:
my nerves were In a terrible shape,
that is the only way can express it..
could not stay in bed and 1 did not
have the strength to move around. I
just felt like flying to pieces and
there were times that I shook like I
was having severe chill.
ANY little, sudden noise would star
tie me until trembled like a leaf. 1
was compelled to have our front door
bell disconnected. It sounded to me
like someone striking an anvil.
II heard about Pepgen and told
my daughter to get me bottle the
next time she went to the drug store
which she accordingly did and 1 start
ed to take it as stated by the direc-
tions on the bottle.
Could Feel Strength Returning.
within a few days could almost
feel my strength returning as this
wonderful medicine filled my veins
with rich, red blood. Last night and
the night before 1 went to bed about
nine o'clock and never woke up until
broad daylight. That is something I
have not done before in years. Today
was able to take a short walk, and
when reached my home l was not
one bit tired. I think I could have
gone much further but did not want
to take any chance of exhausting my
self. That is pretty good for wom-
an seventy-eight years who has not
been out of the house for months.
Don't you think?
II am so much stronger that
scarcely realize my strength.
ut is my honest opinion that if Pep
gen helps one of my age it should aid
younger person even more quickly.
am very enthusiastic and glad to
tell my experience for the benefit of
Others"
Miserable indeed, is the person who
cannot sleep soundly. Sleeplessness
weakens the nervous system. 1t up
sets the digestive organs, it influenc-
es the blood circulation and every
other function.
When a man lies in bed and hears
the clock strike, one, two, three, four
his nervous system is shattered.
Thousands tell how Pepgen has
brought them sound, healthy refresh
ing sleep, strengthened their nerves
and given them good appetites.
1t makes new, rich vitalizing blood
and more nerve force. If you are pale
and thin and lack vitality the rapid
building up action of Pepgen will sur
prise you just as it did Mrs. Haworth.

SHE HAD FRIGHTFUL DREAMS:
NERVOUS SYSTEM WAS UPSET

There is no greater barometer Of
the nervous system than your sleep.
II your. nerves are composed your
sleep is generally sound, your dreams
peaceful. You arise in the morning
feeling refreshed and ready for the
days work On the contrary If your
nerves are drawn like fiddle strings
your sleep is not sound and dreams
are generally of vicious nature.
When morning comes you are often
more tired than when you went to
bed. Your occupation which should
be interesting is hardship instead.

This condition of the nerves is well
described by Miss Ruby C. Wushaupt,
stenographer for the Pilot Motor Co,
who lives at A South 9Th ST., Rich

frightful dreams and would wake up

PERFORMS DOUBLE DUTY OF

II digestion is not good our blood
supply, which builds new tissue is
thin and then come weakly nourish-
ed nerves, headaches, backaches, ca
tarrh, anemia and other ills.
From this 1t can be seen why so
many people indorse Pepgen. It is be-
cause Pepgen stimulates the liver and
kidneys to throw out the waste matter
while it aids the digestive organs in
assimilating food to furnish good
blood. Pepgen has double duty to
perform. 1t is not satisfied in its
work OF producing muscle and bone
but like a good mechanic, It leaves

Our bodies continually undergo a
change. The tissues are constantly
wearing out and new ones are being
built to take their place. 1t has been
said that we have an almost new
body every seven years.
Worn out tissues must be eliminat-
ed to make room for the new, and the
new tissue must be made from healthy
blood. II your system becomes run
down and your liver and kidneys fail
to act properly, the worn out tissues
are not promptly thrown out Of the
system, hence we have rheumatism,
bad blood, boils, pimples and blotchy
complexion.
