She Was Close
To Death From
Rheumatic Fever
Blood Circulation Was So Poor
That Her Hands Were
Numb

Quite some years ago I was
taken down with rheumatic fever
and for several days l was at the
point of DEATH" said Margaret A.
Boyd, of 249 Putnam street, Scran-
ton, Pa. Some time after this I
had st. Vitus dance, so between the
two my health was left in bad con-
dition.
Every Spring I had a siege of
rheumatism. l got such pains that
it was impossible for me to do my
housework and the blood circula-
ton in my hands was so poor and
they got such a numb feeling that
l could not pick anything up. Be-
sides all this misery, 1 have been
troubled with chronic constipation
and an inactive liver.
with all these Affections, anyone
can imagine the condition 7 was in
when l first read of Natonex, the
famous Nature remedy to cleanse,
purify and build up the system in
Natures way. l had only taken Ma
tonex a few days when 1 seemed to
notice a difference. Then my i'm
provement continued right along.
MY bowels became regular, my
nerves got better and I began to
sleep restfully. My complexion
cleared as my system was purified
and my rheumatism pains got less
day by day. The blood circulation
in my hands was more noticeable
than anything else, because 1 could
not even pick up a needle.
IF my relief through Natonex
will be any benefit to others, I will
ingly authorize you to publish it. 7
have so wonderfully improved by
taking Natonex that I want others
to learn of this wonderful Nature

CHAO CHU WI
HERE TO TALK
ON SHANTUNG
Chinese Peace Delegate Will
See Senators and
Officials
Bu Associated Press.

Washington, July 23.-Dr. Chao
Chu WI, one of the Chinese dele
gates to the Peace Conference. has
arrived in Washington to discuss the
Shantung settlement with senators
and officials. Reiterating that China
planned to submit the Shantung
question to the League of Nations
immediately upon its formation, Dr.
Wu paid a tribute to the American
mission to the Peace Conference,
declaring that the Chinese delega-
ton deeply appreciated the work
the mission had done on behalf of
China.
China" said DR.. WI, will not
sign the peace treaty because she
wants to be free to take whatevr
action may be necessary in the flu
ture. The League of Nations un-
doubtedly will offer the best ave-
nue. to approach the situation"
Japan's promises in regard to
Shantung were described by DR.. WI
as being empty of any real mean
ing.
Japan promises to restore politi-
cal rights but retain economic
rights" he said. In China that
means nothing. Look at South Man
only economic rights. but every
body knows the Japanese are in
complete control economically, po-
litically and every other way"
Paris, July %. - Informal con-
versations on possible compromises
which would solve the sShantung
problem constantly are taking place.
The opinion prevails in conference
circles that some arrangement prob
ably will be reached by which the
gentleman's agreement formulated
between Japan and the other great
powers that Japan shall return
Shantung to China will be made
public.
While this agreement was not
formally prepared and signed by the
great powers. it is known that notes
were made but that the Chinese
delegates were never shown any
sort of written document and con-
sequently refused to sign the treaty.
They said verbal statements were
too vague to insure them against
the permanent loss of ShantunS.

filthy condition
Take Mi-o-na stomach tablets if
you want to change your filthy stom-
ach to a healthy. clean. purified one.
If Mi-o-na fails to relieve your in
digestion. rid YOU of dizziness, bilious
ness and sick headache, your dealer
