Read the glad words of this man, happy in new and glorious health. "I feel like a different person, thanks to the miraculous Konjola, which gave 1 me health after I suffered, without any relief, for years from kidney trouble, gastritis, indigestion, ami neuritis. Pain in my back prevented me from bending over; I had to get up many times every night; food would not digest, and pains, gas and | bloating followed every meal however light. Neuritis shot through my body, causing intense agony. “Indorsements of Konjola I read in the papers led me to try this wonderful medicine, and the results astounded me. Within three weeks, my ailments and pains vanished as if swept away. I can eat anything, my kidneys function normally, and, best of all, I am free from neuritis. Konjola is the medicine of medicines." Konjola is sold in Decatur, Ind., at Smith, Yager & Falk's drug store, and by all the best druggists in this vicinity.
