To cap the climax it was announc-

The whole town turned out to
greet him when he arrived on the

The procession went to the town

received him in the name Of Bou-
logne and of France and then hand
ed him a great bunch of flowers and
silver medal bearing the arms of
Boulogne.

new Konjola medicine restored them

"Konjola gives wonderful relief to

Among the hundreds of Indianap-

than Mr.. James Leggitt, a veteran
Of the Civil War, and citizen Of
this city for nearly 20 years, now
living at 1915 Pleasant Street, In

tic pains from my system like magic.
1 suffered long time before I got
this new compound, and I was so
bad off that couldn't walk at all
for or a weeks. The pain in my
knees and ankles were terrible. They
hurt all the time without stopping.
I never could go up town alone when
1 was able to walk, and I couldn't
attempt to get up off of chair
without getting help. When walking
/ just had to drag one foot after the
other, and you know 1 was certainly
in a bad shape.
''Well, I had come to believe moth
ing could help me, but yet, as bad
as I had been, Konjola helped me
right away, and I was able to walk
better before all Of the first bottle
was gone. Now I have taken sew
eraI bottles, and L have so much
more strength in my legs and the
pains are relived so that I take a
nice long walk every day and
don't feel worn out. konjola has
surely stopped the awful misery and
pains and brought lasting relief to
me. 1 can get up from a chair with
put holding to anything or getting
help. Konjola has also benefited me
in many other ways, because l
sleep better than / have for years
and my general system is improved.
Yes, sir, I am certainly surprised
the way Konjola relieved my long
suffering, and I think everyone who
is suffering ought to get your new
medicine and take it. l know what
it did for me and I gladly recon-
mend it,

that acts upon the stomach, liver,

these organs to more healthy action,
and removing toxic poisons from
the system, thus giving wonderful
relief in rheumatic and neuritis suf-
fering.
