Chuk, personal secretary to the I’resident, James C. White, secretary of the Republican National committee Col. Winship, personal military aid of President Coolidge, and Major James F. Coupul. the President’s personal physician for instance have made the ”A and F” their eating place. In “Fairyland” dance hall, up over the milk depot, others of more or less social prominence from Washington dance with the mayor’s daughter, alongside the waitresses dancing witli soldiers from the encampment nearby. Even some of the heavy bonds of social distinction which guard a President have been dropped by Mr. Coolidge, there being considerably less formality about all his activities than was usual at the white house in I Washington. For instance, today he I permitted his housekeeper to come l in to the Rapid City bank in a white house car. o CHURCH TO HOLD PICNIC FRIDAY (COXTIXI KU FIIOM PAGE OAK) ' Black, Wm. Linn.

He Was Constipated, * Bilious and Weak Just Dragged Himself Around for Years. Perfectly Well Now. “I suffered with stomach trouble and a torpid liver for ten years. My appetite was poor ana I was troubled with frequent attacks of biliousness. My complexion was yellow, I was troubled with constipation and all run down. I just had no pep at all. I tried different medicines and nothing did me any good. Several friends recommended Viuna to me, so I tried it. After a couple of days I saw that at last I had found the medicine that I had been looking for. Yviy appetite came back and the things I ate began to taste good to me. The bilious attacks stopped and my complexion began to clear up, so I kept right on, and now I feel fine. I can eat anything, my constipation is gone, and for a man 63 years old, I am full of pep.
