Konjola is helping thousands OF
people who were never benefited by
any medicine or treatment before.
Just a few days ago, Mrs. Mary
King, COL z Division street, this city,
made the following statement. Mrs.
King is a member Of the Christian
Workers of America, Inc, a faithful
organization which is unSelfishly
rendering blessed help among hun
dreds of homes in this city.
Il wish to tell my many friends
about the wonderful results l have
obtained through the use of Kon-
iola," said Mrs. King, II am enjoy
ing better health today than l have
in a long time.
It had neutritis all over my body
and there were times when l could
hardly move. The pains I suffered
were terrible and quite often l
thought I would be unable to stand
them any longer. 1 was unable TO
Go anything for relief and was
steadily getting worse. 1 was also

rising caused by weak kidneys. II
was a common occurrence for me to
get up many times during the
night. This made me weak and
rundown and it wasn't long until I
felt bad all over. I suffered severe
headaches all the time and seldom
was free from these pains. l be-
lieVe this was caused more or less
oy neuritis. I couldn't eat a thing
that wanted and my appetite was
very poor. What I did eat always
disagreed with me and after wor-
rying a long time about my condi-
ton 1 finally realized I would have
to do something for myself If l ever
intended to get well.
"a friend Of mine had been taking
Konjola and she told me about the
wonderful results she had obtained
through the use Of this medicine. SO
I made up my mind to see what
this Konjola would do for me.

am so improved that I am making
this Endorsement in the hope that I
may be able to help other sufferers
toward health. My neuritis Is gone
and my liver and kidneys are Won

ing Konjola and believe that IN an
other week I will be entirely free
of all kidney trouble. I haven't an
ache or pain in my body and can
eat whatever I like without suffer-

right now that the results I received
through the use of this medicine
are wonderful and words could not
begin to express my appreciation for

give this testimonial and shall al

anyone who is in ill-health.

HOOVER SURE
OF MIDWEST,
LEADERS SAY
Farmers Ready to Rally
Around G. 0. P, Is
Report.
BY RAY TUCKER


CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa, Aug. %.
In the most important series of
conferences held since his nominal
ton, Herbert Hoover was assured
today by Middle Western spokeS-
men that, with the possible excep-
ton of North Dakota and Wiscon-
sin, he would receive old-fashioned
Republican majorities.
Governors, Senators and local
leaders predicted the farmers would
vote the c. o. P. ticket, despite feel
ing because of Coolidge's veto of
the McNary- Haugen bill. Hoover's
agricultural program, outlined in
his acceptance speech and devel-
oped in more detail in Tuesday
nights address, is said to have
Softened corn belt resentment.
Farmers Lining Up
1t was not the nominees specific
suggestions that made the biggest
hit with the farmers, he was told.
1t was his assertion that he con-
sidered the agricultural depression
the most serious problem facing the
country today and that his first
action as President would be to at
tempt a solution.
Hoover was told by many Of his
advisers that the farmers, if con-
vinced Of his sincerity in this re-
Spect, would flock to his. standard.
Several Senators, including Nye Of
North Dakota, said they had come
here solely to satisfy themselves
that the nominee would apply to
the farm question the same zeal
and intelligence he had given to
problems involving business and in
dustry.
North Dakota Doubtful
Nye did not minimize Smiths
strength in his State. Others said
that if the election were tomorrow
the Democratic candidate would
carry North Dakota. But the Slight
ly rebellious congressional delega-
ton has declared its preference fol-
Hoover as against Smith" The
extent of their activity for the ma
tional ticket, it was said, would de-
pend on the nature of Nye's report
James w. Good. who is handling
the western campaign said the Wis
conSin situation will be more favor
able after dissensions had beer
ironed out, but that this would not
take place till after next months
primaries. Illinois and Ohio, Coco
told Hoover, would remain in the
Republican column.

GAS PAINS GONE;
KIDNEYS NOW FINE
Engineer Says He Now Knows Right
Road to Good Health.

Performing important duties while
handicapped by stomach and kidney
torture was the lot of Mr.. G. G..
Hungerford ,well-known Illinois Cen
trsl engineer, who lives at 805 S.
State ST., Freeport, III. He tells
about it as follows:
Nobody knows what I suffered
for ten years, from stomach and
kidney trouble. Every attempt to
eat caused me to bloat with gas and
suffer intensely. My back ached,
day and night, and sleep was almost
impossible. I felt weak and tired all
the time, and kept getting worse.
Finally they said 1 had only forty
eight hours to live. But I am alive
and feeling wonderful. I date my
recovery from the moment I started
using Viuna. The first few doses
proved that I had found the right
remedy at last, and now all the old
gas trouble and stomach pains have
gone. My kidneys ceased troubling
me and the backache faded away.
/ sleep soundly and arise feeling
rested and ready for the days work
I want to give credit where credit
is due and Wilma gets all the credit.
viuna acts promptly on sluggish
bowels, lazy liver and weak kidneys. L
purifies the blood, clears the skin, re
stores appetite and digestion, and bring
new strength and energy to the whole
body. Take a bottle on trial. Then il
you're not glad you tried Viuna, YOU
