’There was a time when my health was not so good,” says Mr. Miles Hopkins, of Catlettsburg, Ky. "1 suffered a great deal from gas pains. My system was saturated with poison which was not properly eliminated. From time to time I had severe headaches, and I felt sluggish
and dull.
"I knew of Black-Draught as a medicine for CONSTIPATION ik> I thought I would try it. For a while I took a small dose every night until my system was nd of the accumulated poison. "I gained in weight and my general health was good. That experience made me realize the merits of Black-Draught. I kept it in my home and when I begin to feel lifeless and dull, I take a dose, after which I feel O. K. again. "I try to keep my system cleansed, and 1 find BlackDraught a great aid.”

Negro workers are taking an active part in the Red Cross rehabilitation program since Secretary Herbert Hoover ordered a Negro Red Gross assistuni to match each white assistant operating in i n e j field. That policy has been effect^_jive, for the colored workers serve as certain and sympathetic contacts with hundreds of pitiable sufferers who in many cases did not even know bow to secure, re-

Bladder Wealeness Entirely Relieved In 3 Days How ARGRAY TABLETS stopped Troublesome Weakness .
Mrs. Sarah Jane White, 316 North Blackfort St., a house wife is relieved of all bladder ailments after taking Argray tablets. Mrs. White says that after my 1 baby was horn, I had severe pains in my back, had to ! get up often at night and had a tired run down feeling Which was made worse by the fact that I could not get any relief from my rheumatism. A neighbor induced me to take Argroty taWets, after hflTother ftiedicines had failed to give me relief. After I had taken a few of the tablets, I began to get relief from the depressed condition and today I recommend Argray tablets to
every mother that is so afflicted.
