ILLS DISAPPEAR LIKE MAGIC.
HAAG CO. INTRODUCES HUSKY
Andrew G. Payne, Health Director from Lexington
Is Brought Here to Explain Use Of Remarkable
Medicine Made from Herbs That Grow in
the Fertile Blue Grass Region of Kentucky.
indianapolis People Tell
of Relief from Stomach,
Kidney, Liver an d
Nerve Ailments.

Every now and then a new dis
covery is made, and now comes a
medicine known as Husky" which
is made from herbs that grow in the
fertile Blue Grass Region Of Ken
lucky. Husky acts almost like
magic in treating stomach, kidney,
! liver and nerve ailmentss
| For years this region has been
known to produce a superior grade
of hay and tobacco and it is not sur
| prising to learn that herbs which
grow in the same locality possess the
same excellent quality.
Husky was discovered by A. G..
Payne, a well-known health director.
from Lexington. He is considered
one Of the ablest men in the coun-
try. Mr.. Payne's advice on how to
feel young and be well at the age of
sixty-five has made him thousands
of friends in all parts of the country.
In appearance Husky resembles
any ordinary medicine, although it
does not have the bitter, nauseous
taste that most medicines have. Mr..
Payne explains the difference by re-
ferring to two wires. One wire may
be highly charged with electricity
and the other contains no current
whatever, yet the appearance is the
same, he says.
Mr.. Payne came to Indianapolis at
the invitation of the Haag Drug Co.
of this city, and brought with him
his secretary, Mr.. ]. w. Gray, for
the purpose of explaining to people
how to use Husky to obtain best re-
suits.
Although they have been here only
short time, already many are re-
porting benefits received from hav-
ing taken Husky.
Mrs. Mary E. Carter, 90 n. Rural
Street, this city, said yesterday:
Before l started to take Husky /
had lumbago. l could hardly sit
down and l could hardly get up. 1t
was difficult for me to walk and
pains shot through my body like
jumping toothache.
my stomach was also upset. All
OF my food disagreed with me and
after eating felt stuffy and bloated.
