aches and pains that usually come
In the muscles and joints they re-
late how the trunk of the body is
sometimes twisted and bent all out
of shape by this awful ailment and
they say these things make
rheumatic trouble one Of the most
terrible of all ailing conditions.
1t is surprising what this
celebrated new medicine, Konjola,
often accomplishes in such in.
stances of rheumatic misery. This
remarkable preparation has such a
wonderful cleansing effect that it
seems to drive the rheumatic poison
from the system so that blessed re,
lief comes. For instance, just a
short time ago, Mr.. Raymond Dheel,
q railroad employee. living at New
Boston, a small town on the Ohio
River near Cincinnati described the
wonderful relief Konjola gave him
from his rheumatic suffering.
'I want to give Konjola full
credit for actually overpowering my

lis, where he is introducing this new
medicine.
II suffered terrible pains in my
legs and shoulders from rheuma-
tism," continued Mr.. Dheel THE
Ypast few years my pains kept get
ting worse. and I thought I would
have to give up my work. Such
agony would come over me at nights
and whenever 1 tried to get my rest
so 1 felt pretty bad when I got up
to go to work. My stomach went
bad on me several months ago, and
I really believe those strong rheu-
matte medicines I had taken just
about ruined my stomach.
IT began taking Konjola. and the
first thing this medicine did was to
increase my appetite and put my
stomach in order. My food digested
perfectly after had been taking
Konjola only a few days. Pretty
soon 7 was able to rest a whole night
long without any rheumatic pains
except q few little twinges in the
morning, and just a few days later
these were entirely gone. 1 have
taken four bottles Of Konjola, and it
is an honest fact that I haven't the
least sign Of rheumatic pains or
aches. = They left me about the
second week and have never re-
turned. Besides, nay stomach feels
like new. | eat heartily now, and
with the sound rest / am getting,
you would be surprised how much
more energy and strength l have
gotten back. AS 1 said, l want to
give Konjola full credit for the
splendid health I enjoy today, and I
am glad to have my statement pub
lished for the benefit of others who
suffer-"
This Konjola is the surprising
new medical preparation that has
D recently been accomplishing such
unusual results throughout the Ohio
valley and in the larger cities in in
stances of stomach, liver, kidney
and bowel disorders, catarrhal, rheu.
matte and neuritis troubles. MANY
people say it seems to act like
magic.
The Konjola Man is at Hooks
drug store, corner Pennsylvania and

section of Indianapolis and the
easiest to get to), where he is daily
meeting the public and introducing
and explaining the merits of this
remedy. Free samples given.-Ad-

No man has done more to nd
vance mining west of the Rockies
than Daniel C. yackling, to whom
the Mining and Metallurgical So
ciety of America has just awarded
its gold medal. Mr.. lacking is a
native of Missouri, and worked
his way through the State univer-
sity of Missouri. He studied
chemistry and metallurgy and
went to Colorado to enter the SER
vice of a mining company. One
day he was engaged to go to Utah
to examine a deposit of copper ore.
Today that ore deposit is the fam
Gus property of the Utah Copper
Company, of which Mr.. lacking
is president. As a result of the
process developed by Mr.. Jackling
for the development of low-grade
ore deposits the Utah company has
been enabled to make millions in
dividends and by the same process
there has been added hundreds of
millions of dollars to the wealth
of the West, and the mining meth
DDS be has introduced will add
hundreds of millions more.

In the countries of the Ear East
labor IS plentiful ard cheap. while
capital is scarce. In this country the
situation IS reversed, and II would be
