SAYS HONESTY Is
THE BEST POLICY
Plant Juice Man Uses Only
Testimonials of Local People
Benefited by Plant Juice.

MANY persons think that testimonials |
for advertised medicines are not bona |
fide. Take, for instance, the published |
endorsements for Plant Juice, probably
the best known herbal medicine on the
market today, which is too well known
and has too high a standard to 'stoop
to any methods to deceive the public.
Plant Juice advertising does not quote
people living in remote section OF the
country but gives you the names and
addresses of friends, neighbors and
acquaintance right here In Wilmington,
so that you will be able to verify them,
and TO whom you may phone, write or
call for particulars regarding the beneht
they have received from Plant Juice.
Following are few selected from
thousands in Wilmington, all breathing
thankfulness for relief received from Ill
ness of long standing:
