Read here what Mrs. Henry Clem-
 ent, well known lady of Wolcott, Conn, whose husband is employed at Scovill Mfg. O., has to say:
 "Since Vendol has done for me what no other medicine tried could do. I want everyone in our home town to know about this splendid medicine. For years, before found Vendol, I had suffered from con- situation which kept me always com-
 plaining with first one thing then another.
 "I had no appetite to speak of,
 vet the small meals I forced down into my stomach always distressed me with indigestion, bloating gas and chortness of breath. Though I always felt dead tired and worn out, 1 I could never sleep well at night be- cause of the bad state of my nerves. Dizzy spells and headaches added to
 ai misery, and even my complexion
 was very sallow, refiecting just how I felt inwardly.
 "Vendol seemed different from anything l had tried before and al- most immediately started thorough. complete bowel action. Now. after taking it for less than 6 month l
 have e healthy appetite, with not sign of my old troubles. My ncsves have calmed down 50 nicely that l drop into a restful sleep ee soon as ! 1 10 to bed. never have headaches
