The Peoples Drug Stores. to-
gether with all other leading
pharmacists Of this section, have
purchased large quantities of The
Reese Formula R-11 to meet the
ever-increasing demand for. this
wonderful remedy for stomach, liver
and kidney troubles. Leading drug
gists everywhere readily appreciate
the merits of this great tonic
and body builder. and are sup
plying themselves with sufficient
quantities to meet the big demand.
The Reese Formula R-11 is the
result of a practicing physicians
own need for a remedy for stomach,
liver and kidney troubles. Every
one of the ingredients used In its
preparation is prescribed daily by
practically every doctor treating
these ailments. because of the fact
that they have been proven posi-
lively to be the best for its action
on the organ IL is intended to aid.
The superiority of The Reese For
mula R-11 lies in the skilful and
scientific manner in which these
tried and proven drugs are combin-
ed to give just the proper amount
of each ingredient at each dose. II
Is for this reason that R-11 has
succeeded in relieving cases where
perhaps the same Ingredients given
In improper doses have failed.

hope for his recovery. His condi-

long as possible without any nour-

drink something he would have I'd
wash out his stomach before he had
hardly swallowed second mouth

finally required the washing out of
his stomach two and three times
