Shortly after 10 pm. he turned to his managers with the question: "Have I beaten the German?' referring to Ernest the prize winner last year He was advised that Vierkotter had given up the race, Michel’s arms sagged and his stroke lost it cadence.

KObtKI SSLTCS “Never in my life have I given a . ecommendation for a medicine,” says Mr. Robert Salyer, R. R. No. 8, Richmond, Ind., “but I certainly want every sufferer from rheumatism, neuritis, and stomach trouble to know what Konjola has done for me. “The joints in my body had swollen to twice their natural size, my pain was constant and intense, and I was able to attend to my woi k only about half-time. Then, too. neuritis set in, adding to my suffering. My stomaeh was so bad that I could not retain anything, and a kidney complication caused me to leave my bed many times nightly. I had tried everything, but without benefit. 1 read about Konjola. and what it was doing for others, and decided, to give this new compound a trial. "Imagine my happiness and surprise when the rheumatism and neuritis pains abated. Next my stomach and kidneys were put in normal condition, and after a brief treatment 1 was a remade man. No wonder 1 am eager to endorse Konjola. I shall never be without Konjola, and hope every sufferer in the'land profits by my wonderful experience.” Konjola is sold in Decatur. Indiana at Smith, Yager & Falk drug store, and by all the best druggists in all towns throughout this entire Section.

Stomach Caused Constant Agony Back Ached and kidneys Hurt. Tells How He Got Well. Anyone who has had stomach trouble, kidney pains or rheumatism, need not be told that Mr. S. E. Longcor, New York Central employee, Route 7, Elkhart, Ind., is very glad his suffering is over. He tells of his recovery, as follows: ‘‘When stomach trouble attacked me two years ago, it brought more suffering than I could have believed possible. Every time I tried to eat, the pains in my stomach were awful. I was bloated with gas, bilious and had a bad tastA in my mouth. My kidneys began to trouble me. My back ached, head ached, and the nights seemed very long because I could scarcely sleep. Every morning I got up more tired than when I went to bed. Friends know h<TW I was before I took Viuna, so I want them to know how I am now. I have no stomach trouble. All that pain, gas and indigestion are gone. My bowels are working fine again, kidneys seem : in good order, and I haven’t a touch I of that old back-ache. I am sleeping good, feeling full of pep—in fact, I feel perfectly well again. It seems hard to realize that Viuna could do as much for any sick man as it did for me, but these are facts.” Viuna acts promptly ou sluggish bowels, lazy liver anil weak kidneys. It purities the blood, clears the skin, restores appetite and dlgestion.and brings new strength and energy to the whole body. Take a bottle on trial. Then if you're not glad von tried Viuna. your money will be refunded. $1 at druggists or mailed postpaid by leelaud Medicine Co., Indianapolis, Ind. VIUNA The Wonder Medicine Sold Bv CALLOW & KOHNE

For every important item in Essex construction you must go to these costly cars to find comparison. Like the *3,000 cars Essex uses roller tappet bearings. It uses Timken tapered wheel bearings. It uses worm-and-gear type steering. It uses a hard-rubber steering wheel, with steel core, identical with the wheel used on the highest priced cars. Like the *3,000 cars Essex uses five frame cross members for rigidity. Like them it fully balances all running parts for smooth, long-lasting operation.
