MIS-. II. L. Aker, who lives at 325

credit to Pepgen for the greater ease

Others praise it for ending that tired.

gas and bloating. 1t supplies food for

ARTIST PAINTS
FINE PICTURES
Takes Keen Joy in His Work
Since Relief From Nerv-
Gus Attacks.

Mr.. V. II. Mohler has an art studio
at 433 East Michigan street, where a
feature of the work consists Of finished
crayon and free hand oil portraits.
To produce the artistic work that
this studio turns out requires not only
a high degree of talent, but real in
terest and enthusiasm for the work.
If there is any one in Indianapolis
in doubt about the quality of the
Mohlcr art, 1t would be worth their
time to drop in there to see the ex-
hibits, and we are privileged to say
here that the studio is open to Wis
itors.
AS stated above, this sort of work
requires real heart interest, and not
long ago Mr.. Mohler became very much
disturbed because his work, instead of
being pleasure, was seemingly be-
coming a burden to him. AS a mat
ter Of fact, developments proved, his

very little sleep at night. Weak spells
would come over me and 1t was all l
could do to get around, to say nothing
about working.
Just Mt this time I noticed Pepgen
so highly recommended and 1t struck
me that this was what / needed. That
proved to be the case. Pepgen fixed me
up very nicely. The weakness has left
me entirely, my nerves are steadied
and l sleep soundly all night.

question of selfpunishment or
external discipline, but only the
freedom of becoming ones own
