SAYS PLANT JUICE
GAVE HER HEALTH
For a Long Time She Had Suf-

Kidney Trouble.
WELL KNOWN BERKELEY LADY
Claims That She Can Now Eat
Any Kind Of Food and
Enjoys Her Meals.

Changing conditions have made all
of us more OF less susceptible to stoma
ach disorders and their kindred at
fections. Civilization has forced peo-
pie TO live in smoky cites. to get their
food rendered appetizing by stimu-
lants. and never to walk when they
can ride. No wonder they ara sus-
ccptibie TO stomach trouble. which
acts like n flrebrand on the entire
system. with the result that the kid
neys. liver and intcstines all become
infected.
Plant Juice. the new hcrbal stomach
remedy. supplies the body with the
natural inorganic ga It's which destroy
the poison germs and build up tho
wasted tissues. Many incidents where
remarkably quick results have fol-
lowed the use Of this remedy are
being cited daily by local people in
aiEned testimonials.

but waded into the water for my boat.
But it was deeper than l thought.
Before I knew it, I was in a strong
current. I screamed as it carried me
down the stream, but no men were
near to help me.
But as | went down under the deep
waters, something took hold of me
and dragged me toward shore. 1t was
