foul breath. unciean tongue and a
general stuffy, dull. torpid feeling
together with an absolute lack OF
energy-in such cases. my new her
bal remedy. Plant Juice. seems 10 go
direct to the right spot and. in many
instances. appears to work almost
like magic.
"Of course" the Plant Juice Man
added "the fact that Plant Juice is
natural remedy-is In fact. ex-
tracted from the roots. herbs. fibres
medicinal plants-has great deal
to do with its soothing. correcting
and strengthening effect upon the
stomach. which is soon felt also
over the entire system"
These words spoken by the Plant
Juice Man have been borne out by
the signed testimonials OF many
Reading men and women and were
upheld once again recently while the
Ohio. for a short stay, when Mr.
George c. Burley. OF 1926 Michigan
street. Toledo. 76 years old, a vet
eran OF the Civil War. and a man
OF unquestioned prominence in his
home city. made the following sur
prising statement.
For years I suffered from heart
burn and pain in my stomach,
Mr.. Burley said. II was in pain al
most constantly. ANY kind OF heavy
food put me in misery and II I ate
much at the evening meal. I would
often have TO get up out OF bed at
night for something to ease my pain
and could not sleep for the suffer
ing. Plant Juice proved 20 be a won
der worker In my case and put my
stomach in such good condition that I
now eat and enjoy my food like a
young man. I can honestly say that
I feel better and stronger than for
years and it Is really a pleasure for
me TO recommend such a remedy as
Plant Juice TO all my fellow men,
who may be suffering as did"
