CLEAR TRACK FOUND
BY EX-NOTORMAN
J. L. Atkins, of Illinois Ave,
Takes the Pepgen Route \
to Healthville.

j. L. Atkins, formerly motorman on
the Memphis Street railway lines, is in
apt position now to make a little COM
parison between the operation of a
street car and the proper functioning
of the human body. He knows that if
so that the needed amount of electrical
current is not coming through on the
trolley wire, the street car won't run,
except down hill, And he realizes that
in the human body the stomach is the
power house" that supplies the en-
ergy and when it isn't working right
the whole system gets out Of order.
Mr.. Atkins has had his individual
power house put into good condi-
ton by Pepgen, with resultant fine
Influence on his entire system, accord =
Ing TO The statement made by his wife.
He is now employed by che Kelsey
Wheel company and lives at POI Uli-
nois avenue. In her statement MRS.
Atkins says
MY husband had stomach and liver
trouble lOr years. lie Compla1ned OF
sharp pains in the pit of his stomach
after every meal. He didn't dare eat
any greasy foods because Of the misery
they caused.
His appetite became very poor and
he fell off in weight. His skin was
sallow.
He also complained q dun ache
coming In his right side.
Since Dc has been taking Pepgen he
% better in every way. He eats a
heap more heartily than he did and
nothing that he eaes bothers him at
MI, Fepgen stopped that ache in his
side ana eniivened the action OF the
liver. His complexion has cleared UP
and he has good healthy color now
He has gained ten pounds and
weighs more now than he ever did in
his life.
Under the circumstances, we have
every reason to recommend Pepgen and
are glad to take advantage Of the on
portunity to do SO for the benefit OF
others

PEPGEN," SAYS
MRS. v. WALDEN

Il was not down sick but l needed
a tonic to get my system in good
order" says Mrs. V. B, Walden, Of
1907 Thomas street, Memphis.
MY liver was sluggish. There
was a coating on my tongue and at
times the whites OF my eyes became
yellow. felt til ed out and at times
every bone in my body ached, l
was restless and didn't sleep well
at night. In fact was just gen.
orally rundown.
"Pepgen regulated the action of
my bowels and gave activity to my
liver. My eyes have cleared up and
my tongue isn't coated any more.
II am feeling fine now. l sleep
as soundly as a tired child. And
when I get up in the morning feel
relieved instead of having that tired
feeling. I want to say that Pepgen
is a fine tonic"

PURE CASCARA
FINE LAXATIVE

Pure cascara is one of the best laNa-
tives known to the medical world. but
cascara alone is not always sufficient
to 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 prob
lem where the ailment is OF long stand
ing. To secure best results, cascara and
SIENNA should be used in combination,
Two small horses travelling in the same
direction will always output one big
horse that weighs as much as both OF
them.
To mix cascara and SIENNA in exactly
the proper proportions to always have
uniform dose requires a chemist S
skill but you can purchase them al
ready mixed under the name Of Pep
gen Laxative Tablets" at any first class
drug store.
