 The neighbors in this little town where he lives say they wouldn't be surprised if in another five years Bill turned out to be millionaire. Right now he's only 45.
 l went over to call on Bill to ask him what he intended doing with all that money. Bill himself came out on the porch to greet me. He had on blue sweater and could see he was getting little bald.

 He'd always wanted little place in the country with chickens and so on, and one day. 20 years ago, he sold out his grocery store, paid up his debts, pocketed the $200 that re- mained and started looking around.
 The place, when he found it, con- sisted of four-and-a-half acres and two houses and the owner wanted $5.- 800 for 1t. Bill borrowed the money somehow. got job in the fire de- partment, moved into one of the houses and the next month sold the other house at $500 profit.
 He's been selling things at profit ever since. Along about 1916 Bill got an idea that there weren't enough three and four-room apartments for young married people and old All the bankers laughed at him. so Bill had to go out of town to get the money. But the day those apartments were finished there were 5N families on the waiting list.

 Watch these symptoms: Constipa- ton, sour stomach, biliousness crawps, eyes heavy and dull, bad breath, all gone feeling, headaches. They may lead to more serious con- ditions-bad colds, grippe, etc. To ward off or make attack light, take Dr. True's Elixir. 4oc-60c--$1.20
