How One Man
Lost ~ Pounds

Mr.. Herman Runkis of Detroit
writes: "A few lines Of thanks from
a rheumatism sufferer-my first
bottle of Kruschen Salts took all
the aches and swellings out of my
joints-with my first bottle l went
on a diet and lost % pounds and
now I feel like a new man."
To lose fat SAFELY and quickly
take one half teaspoonful of Kru-
schen Salts IN a glass Of hot water
in the morning before breakfast.
Cut down on pastry and fatty
meats-go light on potatoes, butter,
cream and sugar.
For your health's sake ask for and
get Kruschen-the cost for a bottle that
lasts 4 weeks is but trifle at any drug
store in the world and If after the first
bottle you are not ioyfully satisfied with
resuts-money back. Peoples DRUG

maintaiased the proper levies during
the past years the County would not
be in the shape financially that It is

get down to sane business princip-

General issued an opinion that same

pledged by the said closed bank to
protect county deposits. The said
