city, while talking a few days ago
with the Konjola Man, who is per-
sonally explaining this surprising
new compound at Hooks Drug
Store, Pennsylvania and Market
SITS, Indianapolis.
Yes, all pains are gone, for the
first time in nearly three years" con.
Ntinued MIR. Realey, land before l got
Konjola I was no more than a Grip
pie.
II am an auto painter by trade,
but since 1920 l haven't worked n
single day. My trouble started with
weak Kidneys and became worse.
For six years have been practically
an invalid, down in bed most OF the
time, and very seldom away from
the house, unless some one was along
for / never could trust my strength
to hold me up. / used crutches con-
stantly for over three years, and tho
many forms Of misery ! endured are
hard to tell IN words. But I will say
that night after night I hobbled
across the floor, suffering the worst
agonieS any human could. Most
nights I never closed an eye. My
limbs were so painful they felt like
a sharp knife was being gouged into
: the muscles. Hard Jumps, the size
of hens egg, would raise on the
calf Of my legs. My family will tell
you that l cried out in pain and
many times had to be rubbed and
nassaged for hours. I would rather
have been paralyzed than keep on
suffering the way did. 1t seemed
like relief was impossible. Liniments,
electric treatments, and everything
recommended was given trial. Most
times couldn't even get temporary
relief. am 81 years old and I
thought I was doomed to agony the
rest of my life.
II had been down in bed three
weeks, perfectly helpless, at the
time my wife sent for your Konjola.
When had taken about half OF the
first bottle I felt change, and a
few nights later slept peacefully for
over seven hours. The pains were
easing up, and so l kept right on
taking Konjola. My limbs were get
ting stronger all the time and each
night was resting better. 1t seemed
like great blessing just to sleep.
I was able to get out Of bed in two
weeks, and just few days later my
pains were entirely gone. Now I
am able to walk five blocks to my
married daughters home, go to the
grocery and do errands around the
house. Any of the homo folks will
verify my statement as to the bene-
fits I got from your Konjola. I
am not quite strong enough to re-
turn to work, but gaining strength
every day. The Jumps do not form
on my legs, and the muscles are not
swollen, or cramped like. they were
before, and I am entirely free Of all
the miseries had.

weight in gold to me. and as said,
have made. up my mind to In

Ell CENTRO Voters VOTE

Ell Centro's city election now is history, such
municipal history this city may look back upon with
deep satisfaction for it is seldom that such big per
centage of the voters show their appreciation OF their
~bequest of the ages-the ballot.
- The Press tcket-or rather the ticket it felt I'M
PEELED to select because OF the ncumbents experience
in city Observation-Disclosures defe2ted but choice be-
tween tickets in such tempered campaign Is
matter small compared with the fact that
Ell Centro poed vote far above the average ballotng
of the countrys cities.
Next to the fact that this cty's citizens displayed
commendable interest IN their eonmunity'S govern
ment, is the realization that there no hint Of mud
singing, once considered an indispensable factor in all
elections. Each side announced its platform in the way
of constructive ideas for the conmonWea neither side
aspersed the motives of the opposition.
The voters were not confused by any eXtraneous
bunk" Everything said by the candidates meant
something.
There nothing in the way of hos tility engend-
cred by the campaign, not antagonlsm. The re-
suit is that the losers shake hands with the Win
ners, congratulate them and offer the incoming coun
cmen any helpful information familiarity which the
job may afford.
A record breaking vote was cast. That's the main
thing This is government Of by, and for the people
but only when the people get out and vote.

OIL MONOPOLY

The government, it appears, is going TO unscrambe
the coil trust" again.
There used to be Just one such trust Since the
Standard was dssovled it is alleged, the parts have
worked together if not grown together; and some Of
them are big as the parent trust In addi
ton lot Of other companies said to have Joined
in the game, adopting trust practices if using
tual trust machinery
1t doesn't matter whether there is one big monop-
ostic conlbsay. half hundred if the half hundred
operate 8nessieh the government accuses them Of
doing. s1}ll5i 49,.
Whether the oil companies, big and little, have been
gouging the public and breaking the THRUST law is
for the Department OF justice to prove and for the
court to say. This much, however, IS patent any OBJ
servant citizen:
The oil companies have nearly all been making
plenty of money, their profit sheets and stock div
dends and market quotations show;
The public has been paying good deal for gaso
line and has never been able to understand why if
there were monopostic practices prices OF all COM
panies selling in given territory should consistently
move up down together.
If the Standard has been breaking the Law, it looks
as if lot of professed independents have found sat-
isfacton and profit in breaking the law along with it.
We may discover, as the case progresses, what an in
dependent" oil company is as well as what an oil
trust IS.
