NOT SICK ONE DAY
SINCE TAKING It
Mrs. Margaret Davies of
Birmingham Tells Won
derful Story About
Plant Juice

In order that any man or woman may
derive full measure of pleasure and
success from life, it is necessary that
| he or she should be possessed of health
in mind and body. 1t is certain that the
greatest thing in all this world is health;
without it man can scarcely do any
thing worth doing; he can accomplish
little that is really worth accomplish
ing.
Attention to health then should take
precedence over every other object.
That which is necessary to secure ii
should receive consideration in prefer
ence to everything else For instance,
the preparation Plant juice the new
herbal stomach remedy which is gaining
such a following in Birmingham, where
daily grateful people are testifying TO
it's merits and recommending it to their
friends.
Recently the signed statement was re-
ceived of Mrs. Margaret Davies, who
lives at No. 122 Waller street, Birming-
ham. West End, and who is well
known church worker, having been a
member for the past SO years. She said:
Il had been a great sufferer from stom-
ach trouble for a long time and was un-
able to get any relief, All my food
fermented and turned sour in my stom-
ach and / would bloat up like a balloon.
/ had severe headaches and dizzy spells
and at times felt as though l was fall
ing from great height. | had pains
all through my body and black specks

II suffered also from bad case of
catarrh of the head, nose and throat. The
gas in my stomach pressed under my
heart and caused palptation ! had be-
come so bad that | was unable to do
any of my housework, and was growing
weaker every day, as / could not eat.
My druggist advised me to try Plant
Juice, which I did. 1t helped me at
once and in short time | was able to
eat any kind of food and I sleep the
night through. / passed from my system
a moster parasite, called a "Tapeworm,
which measured So feet in length.

At the Lyric

Lovers Of song, music, comedy and
dance will find much to entertain them
at the Lyric. The programme presented
to capacity audiences Monday evening
proved one of the most delightful for
ing attractions Susanna Rocamora and
four talented young lady singers prove
the piece de resistance. This act is one
of the classiest singing acts presented
at the Lyric for some time. All the
girls possess excellent voices and their
programme consists of pleasing and pop
ular selections. Susanne Rocamora has
a very attractive personality and has
rich and powerful soprano voice. She is
an old Birmingham favorite and prac-
tically started her stage career in Biz
mingham with the old Bijou Musical
Comedy company. She was given a
hearty welcome on her appearance Mon
day evening. The International Revue,
a mingling of tuneful music, catchy songs
and pretty girls, is far above the aver
age musical comedy. The principals
have good voices and the act is very
pleasing The girls are clever entertain
,ers, the act is well staged and it fur
nishes a few minutes of really enjoyable
entertainment A high-elass and attrac-
tive dancing act by Sonia Baraban and
Charles Groh opens the bill and both are
excellent terpischoreans. They render
classic and popular dances and receive
much applause for their execution and
cleverness. Miss Baraban possesses un-
usual grace and has an excellent partner
in Charles Groh. Nevins and Erwood
again pleased Birmingham audiences. and
while their act is the same as on previ-
Gus visits, it is very entertaining
