SUFFERING OF 30 YEARS ENDED BY NEW KONJOLA Happy Man, 76 Years Os Age, Praises Power of Modern Konjola — ♦ ■FWJl 4 ! mL\ MR. Z. McNEW "I had suffered continuously for thirty years from stomach trouble,” said Mr. Z. McNew, 429 South Union street, Kokomo, Ind. "My food did not digest as it should and lay on my stomach and soured, forming gas. The gas gathered around my heart causing palpitation and shortage of breath. I suffered terrible indigestion pains and did not get the proper nourishment from my food. “I had been reading and hearing of the remarkable success of Konjola and decided to try it myself. I started with two bottles, and to my amazement my suffering began to ease up immediately. As I continued my stomach was corrected and now functions properly. I am rid of the awful gas pains and eat whatever I want without suffering from indigestion. Konjola surely is a wonderful medicine.” Konjola ie sold in Decatur at the Smith, Yager & Falk drug store, and by all the best druggists in all towns throughout this entire section. Cold* are seriou*. Even mild cates are dangerous. Remember KONJOLA COLD COMPOUND (tablets) is giving amazing relief to thousands of cold sufferers every year.
