Konjola is nonalcoholic. It is
different than any medicine pre-.
viously known. Where many or.
binary remedies contain only seven
or eight herbal ingredients. which
merely act as laxative, this new
konjola contains twenty-five Juices
extracted from natural plants which
invigorates the stomach, liver, kid
neys and bowels to more healthy ac.
ton. The effect of Konjola on the
whole inner system brings amazing
relief in cases Of suffering that had
been going on for years. At the
same time many weak and rundown
systems have been restored to a new
state Of health through the use. of
this compound Such a vast number
OF men and women in this city have
benefited by taking Konjola, until
now it has become the most highly
Endorsed medicine that is known in
this vicinity.
The Konjola Man is at Hooks
Drug Store, Pennsylvania and Mar

daily meeting the local public and
introducing and explaining the mer-

by every Hook Store in Indianapolis,
and by all good druggists in the
