MIR. MERLE J. BROWN
AND SON

II ANakAOiAlA
Tcine, one that nature herself would
recommend. Each day the Konjola
Man, who is at the Hook Drug
Store, Illinois and Washington
streets, this city, hears amazing re-
ports from former sufferers about
the manner in which Konjola re-
stored their health. The Konjola
Man makes no promises or claims
for Konjola-he merely points out
tfacts, the surprising accomplish
lments of this master medicine.
Cases like that Of Mr.. Merle j.
Brown, 1852 hardwood avenue, Uni
versity Heights, Indianapolis, and
that of his son Master Cleo Clifton
Brown, are not unusual to Konjola.
Read the statement Of Mr.. Brown,
as he told it to the Konjola Man
few days ago:
mot only has Konjola benefited
me to an amazing extent but it has
also given new strength and health
to my son, years old. We were
both in a rundown condition. I had
suffered for eight years from
stomach trouble, constipation and
many symptoms of stomach trouble.
Among them were gas bloating, a.
sour condition and a gnaWing SEN
sation in the pit of my stomach
Due to constipation was unable to.
throw off the poisons in my system.
NV kidneys became weak and caused
severe pains throughout my body.
I was weak and nervous and for
three weeks I was confined to my
home with Iumbago. My son, Cleo,
who is 6 years old had been in -
nervous state ever since infancy. He
was never a strong and healthy
child. He was underWeight, very pale
and was afflicted with stomach
disorder. Meals never appealed to
him, and when he did eat, he al
ways complained about pains and
uncomfortable feelings afterward
He was subject to colds, failed to
sleep we'll and was becoming a very
sickly boy. was very worried about
him.
"Konjola was 50 strongly recon-
mended TO me that I decided to
give it a trial. started taking it
first and gained amazing benefits
from it. My stomach and kidneys
we're regulated, strengthened and
cleansed before I had hardly started
the treatment. I found that food
Of any kind digested perfectly.
Sound sleep was restored to me and
all aches and pains driven from my
body. Konjola regulated my bowels
so that the poisons in my system
were properly eliminated. When I
saw how Konjola helped me I de-
cided to give it to my son. Now, l
want to say that four bottles made
different child of him. He eats
we'll, sleeps like a top and has gained
in strength and weight. AL signs OF
nervousness disappeared and have
never returned. 1t is a marvellous
thing the way Konjola won two
victories right in my own home. I
indorse Konjola to every father,
mother, son and daughter. l know
what it will do and believe it boon
to suffering humanity.
This is not an exceptional case.
Konjola has thousands Of them to
its credit. It is sound and logical
reasoning to believe that what Kon-
jola has done for others it will do
for you. All Konjola asks is the
chance to make you well.

CANNED FRUITS
 AND VEGETABLES
Full of Nitamins, Should Be
 Eaten Daily, Says Doctor

Dr. Morris Fishbein. Editor of the Journal of the American Medi- cal Association, recently wrote in the New ' ork Telegram about canned fruits and vegetables. If all of the women could read this article, more canning factories would have to be built in a hurry.
 He makes this startling state. ment: Canned tomatoes, and canned spinach have been tested three years after canning and the evidence did not indicate any ap- preciable loss in vitamins Indeed, the canned tomatoes after three years were as rich in vitamins as raw tomatoes. Canned strawberries were also found to equal raw straw berries in vitamin content" He de- scribcs how canned cabbage, peas, spinach, apples and peaches were shown 10 be rich in Nitamin c.
 Just think what wonderful news this is for all of us in this country where canning has been developed to such a point Of perfection that we can buy canned almost any fruit or vegetable that is grown.
 Serve your family literally with canned fruits for breakfast and for dessert. and serve them liberally with canned vegetables and fruits for luncheon and dinner. Canned peaches. apricots, apples, pears. or strawberries are delicious served with cereals for breakfast and with ice cream for dessert. There IS health in delicious canned fruits and vegetables. Swecten the vegc- tables 10 taste when preparing them for serving. The Sugar Institute,
