Step into the nearest cigar store and trade one nickel —no more for a [hivana Ribbon. You'll get i-ipe tobacco, expertlymade into a cigar that will taste sweet and mild from stem to stern.

His Health Ruined By Constipation Tells How He Got Quick Relief. No Sign of Trouble Now. "For five years I suffered with liver trouble and constipation. My bowels were so sluggish they would hardly act more than once a week. My complexion was yellow and I was all run down. My appetite was poor and I had a disgust for food most of the time. I went down to 136 pounds, and my vitality was so low I just had no pep at all. I felt lazy and wanted to sleep all the time. I tried different medicines and nothing did ma any good. Then a relative recommended Viuna. Before I-had taken half a bottle I felt better, and by the time I had taken the second bottle I had gained 4 pounds and could eat anything, had a good, healthy appetite and was feeling fine. All that drowsiness was gone and I would get up in the morning full of pep. It has been three months since I bought my first bottle of Viuna, and I believe I can truthfully say that I am entirely well. I have gained 20 pounds, and never felt better in my life.”—Paul D. Bragdon, 1523 Cedar St., Anderson, Ind. Viuna acts promptly on sluggish bowels, lazy liver anil weak kidneys. It purifies the blood, clears the skin, restores appetite and digestion, and brings new strength and energy to the whole body. Take a bottle on trial. Then if you're not glad you tried Viuna. your money will be refunded. $1 at druggists, or mailed postpaid by Iceland Medicine Co.. Indianapolis, Ind.
