"In my opinion, there never was ! a prepared medicine that can do so ! much fbr suffering people as Kon- j jola, for this wonderful new com- \ PSfUnd has certainly made an amaz- ! sng change in my physical condition, j and I do not hesitate to urge others j -'.r t --•I.-. 1 - MBS. ANNA GREEN who are in ill-health to take JConjola, for it will surely benefit them,” saM Mrs. Anna Green, popular Indianapolis lady, who is a practical nurse living at 2323 Haynes Avenue, this city, while talking a- few days ago with The Konjola Man, who ! is at Hook's drug store, corner Pepn- j sylvania and Market Streets, Indian- j apolis, where crowds of "men and women call every day to hear his personal explanation of this cele- j bra ted medical compound. "The influenza which I had two ; years ago left me a health wreck,” j said Mrs. Green. “My stomach and | kidneys and nerves were affected, and as a result, my general health failed and so I finally had to give up my nursing duties. In'spite of careful dieting, I would still continue to suffer with my stomach. The meals I ate would only bring misery instead *of strength to my body. I would belch, and bloat and have sourness In my stomach con- i stantly, as well as severe pains. My l kidneys were disordered and slug- j 1 glsh, and sharp, terrific pains would | center in my back. Ijistead of rest- I lng at nights, I would be so miser- j able that I just had to lay awake ! and roll and toss from one side of tho bed to the other. I was just a bundle of nerves every day, and I got so bad that I couldn’t stand the | least noise. This nervousness gradu- j ally brought on spells or neuritis, j and only those who suffer this dis- ! ease know the torture that it can j bring to the victim. Tho back of my neck and shoulders and arms would become a mass of pains. Yes, ! indeed, I bad been in misery all ! through my system from these i troubles. "But Konjola certainly made a I great change in me. lam once more j free of misery, since I got this medi- ! cine. My nerves are quited and stronger, and the'neuritis pains in my shoulders, arms and neck have all disappeared. My stomach has been restored to a healthy, active condition, so that myVfood doesn’t lay and ferment and cause suffering j as it did before. Everything I eat I agrees with me, and each day I | seem to get more and more strength from my meals, so naturally my whole system is improved. The pains have completely disappeared from my back, because my kidneys are working In good order, and I feel a great deal rested every morning now, because I can sleep fine all night long. I get up without that wretched achy feeling, and so I feel I like going about once more with my work. "Ves, as 1 stated in the first place, I do not hesitate to urge others to get Konjola and take this wonderful medicine, for I am sure it will help them Just as it did me.” - Tho Konjola Man is at Hook’s drug store, corner Pennsylvania and Market Streets, Indianapolis, where ho is daily meeting the public and introducing and explaining the merits of this remedy. Free Samples given. Konjola also Is for sale at every Hook drug store In Indianapolis and jby all druggists in the nearby towns. —Advertisement.
