Explains How Enlarged
Veins Can Be Reduced
Often Times Veins Burst
and Cause Much Suffer-
ing, Expense and Loss of
Employment. 4,

Many people have become deepon-
dent because they have been led to
believe that there is no remedy that
will reduce swollen veins and
punches.
If you will get a two-ounce orig
inal bottle of Moone's Emerald Oil
full strengthl at any first class
drug store and apply it at home as
directed YOU will quickly notice an
improvement which will continue uu-.
til the veins and punches are re-
duced to normal.
Moone's Emerald Oil is very con-
eentrated and bottle lasts a long
time-that's why it is a most in.
expensive treatment. 1t has brought
much comfort to worried people all
over the country and is one of the
wonderful discoveries of recent years
and always bear in mind that any
one who is disappointed with its
use can have their money refunded.
Sommers' Drug Stores will supply you.

Berling Sept. 1.-THE government

The purpose of this action is to in

way to the formal German note Mon

This note already has been drafted

the French reception of Premier
