the Poles are successful in driving

IN VAIN SEARCH
Mrs. c. f. Nicholson, 1928 w.
Main ST., a Popular Rich
mOnd Lady, Relates
Her Experience.
SHE HAD SUFFERED IS YEARS
Claims Plant Juice, The New
Stomach Medicine, Has
Now Cured Her.

Changing conditions have made all
OF us more or less susceptible to
stomach disorders and their kindred
affections. Civilization has forced
people to get food rendered nppetiz-
ing by stlmulants. to live in smoky
cities and never to walk when they
can ride. No wonder they are sus-
ceptibie TO stomach ailments which
act like a fire-brand on the entire
system. with the result that the kid
neys. liver and intestines all become
infected.
Plant Juice. the famous herbal
stomach remedy, destroys poison
germs and builds up the wasted It's
sues. Many incidents where remark
ably quick results have followed the
use OF this remedy are being cited
daily by local people in signed testi-
monial5.
One Of the most recent is that of
Mrs. c. L. Nicholson. popular Rich
mond lady. residing at No. 1923 West
Main Street, who said:
II have taken treatment for about
Is years for gastritis and have spent
a fortune trying to get something
TO cure me, but OF no avail. Food of
any kind would sour in my stomach.
and was bloated with gas and in
constant pain; I was constipa ted all
the time, could not sleep at night
and became very weak. A friend OF
mine, who had been entirely cured
OF the worst case Of stomach trouble
! ever saw, advised me to try Plant
Juice. I have taken two bottles. and
came down town to tell The Plant
Juice Man what marvellous mcdi-
cine Plant Juice Is. I have a fine
appetite. sleep well and have perfect
health and strength once more. 1t
has been perfect cure in my case.
and seems wonderful that am really
well again. am very thankful and
glad to give this public endorsement
for Plant juice"
