That's What Old Town, Me.
Man Says When Reporting
Wife's Recovery After Three
Years Suffering

"Karnak has simply worked like
magic in my wife's case and we both
think there is nothing else under the
sun like it," declares T. L. Violette of
90 Prentiss ST., Old Town, Me.
For three years she suffered from
stomach trouble, indigestion, nervous
ness and a rundown, weakened con-
dition. She suffered from gas bloat-
ing, biliousness and heartburn after
every meal, and was so extremely
nervous she couldn't get restful
nights sleep. In fact, she scarcely
ate enough to keep body and soul to-
geihcr. and she said she just felt
sick all over.
