TT is characteristic of
folks after they pass the allotted
"three score years and ten" to look
IA back over tho days that are gone
and thoughtfully live them over.
I find myself at seventy-one, frequently
drifting back quarter OF century, when
see myself in the little drug store owned
at Bolivar, Mo-, making and selling a
vegetable compound TO my friends and
customers-what was then known only as
DR.. Lewis Medicine for Stomach, Liver
and Bowel Complaints.
For many years while was perfecting my
formula ! studied and Investigated the
laxatives and cathartics on the market and
became convinced that their main fault
was not that they did not act on the bowels,
but that their action was too violent and
drastic, and upset the system Of the user;
which was due TO. the fact that they were
not thorough enough in their action, some
simply acting on the upper or small intes-
tines, while others would act only on the
lower or large intestines, and that they
almost invariably produced habit re-
quiring augmented doses.
believed that O preparation to produce
the best effect must first tone the liver
then act on the stomach and entire alimen-
tary system. II this was accomplished, the
incidence would produce mild, but
thorough elimination OF the waste without
the usual BickeninR sensations, and make
the user feel better at once, RaA
After experimenting with Hundreds OF
different compounds, at last perfected the
formula that is now known as Natures
hsmsdy, which truly believe goes further

market today. The t.-oalanda OF letters
from users have convinced - ] was right,
and that the user Of Nature SRA as
family medicine, even though no may have
used it for twenty-five years, never has
to increase the dose.
My knowledge of medicine and the re-
suits OF its use in my own family and
among my friends, before ever offered it
for sale, caused me TO have great faith in
Natures Remedy from the very first.
And now as find myself nearing the age
when must bow to the inevitable and 60
to another life, my greatest pleasure is to
sit each day and read the letters that each
mail brings from people as old or older
than l, who tell OF having used Natures
Remedy for ten, fifteen and twenty years,
and how they and their children and
grandchildren have been benefited by it.
1t is 0 consoling thought, my friends, for
a man at my age TO feel that aside from
his own success, one has done something
for his fellow man. My greatest satisfac-
ton, my greatest happiness today, 10 the

Robert Fl. Moult"n in Everybodys.
''The farm Is devoted entirely TO
wheat. and if it produces Some~horo

ty-eight bushels per aero. which IS
practically certain. it will add approx
mately 5,65000O bushels to the 1919
wheat crop" says the writer.
"All of the work is being done with
tractors. Last fall when the first
ground WAS broken, there were fifty
monster machines at work tearing up
the prairie sod. They pillow on an
average of one acre minute for the
working time. A record was made
one day of 1850 acres turned and
broken. All the seeding, harvesting.
etc, will also be done by tractors. and
then. of course. there are the thrash
ing machines. Hence. the absolute
