with which he had been suffering
for more than a year until relieved

He says:
MY meal times are so irregular
because OF my work that my stom-

PACKER IN FURNITURE STORE
Tells How Pepgen Has Relieved Him
of Stomach Trouble and Fear
of Operation - Recommends
the Remedy.

While King George, with imposing
retinue. holds court at Westminster
palace in London. a relative OF his
tolls in a South Bend furniture and
stove store.
Z. Edwards, who works at Jud-
sons Furniture & Stove Store at 127
West Colfax. is the South Bend man
who says he is related 10 the royal
family that reigns over the vast Brit
ish Empire Not a close relative. but
a distant one. But even at that,
there are people. who If they could
trace similar lineage, would be so
swelled up with pride that a strut
ting peacock would sem like a very
modest little bird in comparison.
Mr.. Edward, however, just goes on
earning his daily bread as an ordin-
airy worker, like any one else in his
position. He lives at 30S North Main
Street. He does hard work, pack
ing and unpacking furniture, stoves,
etc. Mention OF his relation TO royal
~ cropped out incidentally in con-
nection with a statement he made
regarding Pepgen. In this state
ment he says:
Il had stomach trouble for several
years. I had very little appetite and
ate hardly enough to keep alive.
Some time ago very severe pains
developed in my stomach and right
side My back and hips felt like 1

me. / was, so weak I could hardly
get around and had to lay off work.
II was told that / probably had
appendicitis, with complications.
and would likely have to go TO the
hospital for an operation"
Explaining that he did not at all
fancy the IDEA OF going to the hos
pital for the operation, which he
says would have cost about $3.50, he
goes on TO state:
81 read about Pepgen in the South
Bend papers and got 1t. Results
were almost immediate. Soon after
1 began taking it the aches and
pains stopped. I was able TO go
back to work and I am feeling fine.

Mrs. StockweIl. Recent Arrival From
Connecticut, Says Pcpgen Has
Restored Her.

Mrs. John T. Stockwell. who lives
at 500 West LaSaue Avenue. moved
to South Bend from Hartford, Con-
necticut. last summer. Her hus-
band is an overseer at the South
Bend Wooden Mills. She is a young
woman Of very pleasing personality
who has already acquired a host of
friends.
Mrs. Stoekwen appreciated the
hospitality of South Bend folks but
South Bends water didn't seem to
agree with her. In this connection
she says:
Il think the change OF drinking
water affected my stomach and my
whole system. Ny food did not seem
to give me the right nourishment.
The result was that became in run
down condition. 1t was so tired in
the mornings that sid not feel like
getting up. And did not sleep well.
In fact, I felt just about all IN as
the saying goes.
Il got Pepgen after reading testi-

PURE CASCARA Is
FINE LAXATIVE

Pure cascara is one OF the best
laXatives known 10 the medical
world. but cascara alone is not al
ways sufficient 70 overcome a severe
and aggravated case OF constipation.
SIENNA leaves are another popular
home remedy for constipation. but
like cascara, they will not answer
the problem where the ailment is OF
long standing. To secure best re-
suits cascara and SIENNA should be
used in combination. Two small
horses travelling IN the same direc-
ton viii always outpull one big horse
that weighs as much as both Of
them.
To mix cascara and SIENNA in ex-
actly the proper proportions 20 al
ways have uniform dose requires a
chemists skill. but YOU can pur-
chase them already mixed under the
name OF "Pepgen Laxative Tablets"
at any first class drug store. =

AVERTS ATTACK
OF PR0STRATI0N
Mrs. Busezky of Chaplin Street Tells
How Pepgcn Has Benefited
Husband.

Mrs Steve Busezky is convinced
that Pepgen averted a case Of nerv-
Gus prostration for her husband and
saws so in a statement which she
makes regarding the effect Of this
remedy.
Mrs. Busezky lives at 524 South
Chaplin Street. They have been liv-
ing in South Bend for fourteen years.
MY husband suffered with stom-
ach trouble for three years she
says. He was restless at night. In
fact he was so nervous I was afraid
he was going 10 have another attack
Of nervous prostration, like one he
had four years ago.
After every meal he would suffer
from gas forming in his stomach. He
also had pains in his chest. He COM
planned OF feeling as though there
was something heavy in his stomach.
"Pepgen ended his stomach trouble
and nervousness. Gas does not
form in his stomach now, no matter
what he eats. His appetite IS i'm
proved and he sleeps soundly.
He says II IS mighty good mcdl-
cine and l think IL prevented an at
tack Of nervous prostration for
him"
When the nerves are worn out the
vitality becomes low and there will
be a general breaking down or de-
cline OF the entire system which, in
addition 20 destroying personal APP
pearance, may affect every part or
organ OF the body.
The patient tires on the slightest
exertion, passes wakeful nights,
arises unrefreshed and often more
tired in the morning than when they
went 10 bed.
Among the symptoms viii be no
ticed indisposition or debility, poor
appetite, indigestion. weakness in the
back. vertigo. fainting spells. wan
dering pains, hot flashes and chills.
