Eight Months Of
Nervous Misery
Mrs. Adams Tells how Less than One
Bottle of SanaIt Ended the Nervous
ness by Removing the Causes.

81 had been suffering terribly from
nervousness for more than eight months.
1T was caused by bad condition of my
stomach, which came so gradually that
almost before realized it was suffering
from Intense headaches and spells of
dizziness that were simply terrible. My
kidneys and liver were both badly affected
and l suffered intensely from backache.
Thus says Mrs. Carl Adams, whose home
is at 456 Main St, Gardner, Mass. She
adds
II have not yet finished my first bottle
of Sanalt, but it has wonderfully improved
nv condition The nervousness has
almost gone, my stomach has been greatly
helped, kidneys and liver are acting much
better, and already l am convinced that
Sanalt is true to name as 'Sanalt the
Sensible Tonic
Il purchased Sanalt through the recon-
mendation of Druggist Leathe, of Gardner,
who said that if | was not satisfied with
results he would return my money"
Sanalt has been used by the physicians
of New England for nearly hundred
years. Most reconstructive tonics are
constipatipg, -Sanalt regulates blood,
bowls, stomach and liver all at the same
time
Enterprising druggists all sell Sanalt.

REV. CARROLL SUES CHURCH.
Asks $4,000 Damages for Being Locked
Out of Church at Beckett

PITTSFIELD, Mass, May 9.-Rev
Walter c. Carroll, pastor of the Center
Beckett Congregational church, yesterday
began suit for $4,000 damages against
three prominent members of his church,
Omri S. Willis, Henry A. Bidwel and
Roy W. S. Smith, as a result of the al
legged lockout of the minister from the
church last winter.
Attorney Moore said the suit is
brought to secure vindication for Rev.
Mr. Carroll. He stated that the minister
had been prevented from occupying the
pulpit of his church by the lockout, al
though the majority of the congregation
desired his services
The three defendants in the action,
which is filed in the superior court, con-
stitute the board of trustees of the
church.
The trouble between Rev. Mr.. Carroll
and the officials of his church had reached
a point where he was being paid his sal
airy. but was not allowed to preach, ac-
cording to his statements. The payment
in salary was made by the trustees on
advice of attorneys and in accordance
with a contract between Rev. Mr.. Car
roll and the church.
