Gas would form on my stomach so
bad / would almost choke to DEATH
Kidney trouble, aches and pains in
my back, rheumatism and female
complaints, all combined managed to
make life miserable for me until a
friend told me about this Acid Iron
Mineral. 1t is everything they claim
for it to be. l gladly recommend it to
all my friends. 1t relieved me of
indigestion and gastritis, and the fe-
male trouble has disappeared" says
Mrs. Gallagher.
Acid Iron Mineral is strange to say
not an acid medicine. 1t has no al
cohol or dope to deaden pain or senses.
1t is just the simple highly concen-
trated compound made from ore dug
out of medicinal iron ore mine,
leeched, filtered, tested and bottled,
very powerful for home use and use
in hospitals and by doctors.
1t is 80 strong that just a teaspoon

No one individual in the county

Grafton, pulling together and atten-
tion, even after the roads are built,
to see that they are kept in good con-
dition. Money spent for good roads is
like money on interest; it pays hand
some dividends; it is a legacy for
coming generations. There are hun
dreds of persons today who are able
to own automobiles but refuse to do
so because of bad roads. Is this fact
not worth considering? Does not
every automobile brought into the
county mean an evidence of increased
prosperity? Then there are the
transients who are constantly pass

some of these might be induced to

become owners of property, but for

we would soon bo up ana around
