STOMACH MISERY ENDED HE WEIGHS 10 POUNDS MORE

Cramps, Smothering Spells, Vomiting; Vanished by Konjola, Young Man States.

MB. ROY DAVIS

Mr/ Roy Davis, well-known Indianapolis citizen, living at 270 S. Temple St., this city, in a recent statement to the Konjola Man, who is at Hook's Drug Store, Pennsylvania and Market Sts., Indianapolis, explaining Konjola to vast throngs of people daily. “My weight increased from 130 to 140 pounds in less than three weeks,” said Mr. Davis. “Before I got Konjola I was told that I had almost every bad symptom of stomach trouble. Night after night I would awake suddenly, gasping for breath. Smothering spells would attack me. then terrible cramps. Asa result of this I couldn’t keep the lightest kind of foods on my stomach, and without nourishment, my weight fell off. I would have to be away from my work over half the time, and in the morning, after having attacks at night, I was so weak I couldn’t think of going to work. Every meal I ate brought on misery, and special diets never helped me a bit. I have taken special treatments. “I heard a lot about Konjola, but I will truthfully tell you I had no faith in anything that looked like medicine. Anyway, I got Konjola as a last resort. I began taking it im--1 mediately after meals, just as I was told, and the second day I had a slight belching spell. After that it seemed like Konjola forced every meal I ate to digest properly. I was delighted, so I continued with this medicine, taking five bottles in all, and I noticed every day I had a better feeling over my whole system. I am free of stomach trouble now, even eat onions and cabbage. I never expected such relief, and, believe me, lam thankful. All cramps, smothering spells, etc., have vanished. I can swear to an oath that Konjola proved to be the best medicine I ever had experience with.” Konjola is nonalcoholic. It is different than any medicine previously known. Where many ordinary remedies contain only seven of eight herbiij ingredients, which merely act as a laxative, this new Khnjola contains twenty-two juices extracted from natural plants which invigorates the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels to more healthy action. The effect of Konjola on the whole inner system brings amazing relief in cases of suffering that had been going on for years. At the same time many weak and run-down systems have been restored to anew state of health through the use. of this compound. Such a vast number of men and women in this city have benefited by taking Konjola, until now it has become the most highly indorsed medicine that is known in this vicinity. The Konjola Man Is at Hook's Drug Store, Pennsylvania and Market Sts., Indianapolis, where he is daily meeting the local public and introducing and explaining the merits of this remedy. Konjola is sold by every Hook Store in Indiahapolis, and by all good druggists in the r.earby towns throughout ,this sec ‘ Ir.rt.—A dvcrti-err l en t.

DEED SHOWS RISE IN REALTY VALUES

Downtown Lot Sells for $40,000 Now Originally Brought $78 —History Recorded in Many Transfers.

Realty history, compiled by titlpe insurance department of Union Title Company, discloses that one lot, measuring 33.9x170 feet, recently sold for more than five hundred times the cost of the entire city block. On Aug. 2, 1828, James Blake acquired title to the entire original square 96, of the town, now city, of Indianapolis, which was laid out under the direction of commissioners appointed to lay off the town on the site selected for the permanent seat of government, as approved Jan. 6, 1821. The square occupies the territory bounded by South St. on the south, Meridian St. on the east, Illinois St. on the west and Louisiana St. on the north, for which James Blake paid the sumos S7B. The Union Station now occupies half of this original square. Blake was a pioneer teacher and taught the school first organized and kept In Caleb Scudder's cabinet shop, on the south side bf the Statehouse square, in 1823. He came here in the year of 1821. In the first year of his residence nearly every inhabitant was down with fever andague. Blake, while likewise suffering, employed his well days in gathering new corn and grating it on horseradish grater into meal for the convalescent. He s was one of the company that built the first steam mill here. He brought the first piano and the first pleasure carriage. It was a two-horse barouche, which he drove through from Baltimore. He was the president of the first State board of agriculture, organized in 1835. In the year that Blake bought the square the first stage line from Jndianapolis to Madison was started. Blake held title to the original square intact, until he sub-divided the south half In February, 1852, thereby making twelve lots, six of which front on the east side of Illinois St. and six on the west side of Meridian St., north of South St., each respective tier of lots abutting an alley on either side of Pogue’s Hun, which was named for the traditional, but disputed first settler on the city site, George Pogue, who met death at the hands of Indians. Until street improvements turned a large part of the town drainage into the run, the water was clear, well stocked with fish and a favorite swimming resort for school boys. Records show that in December, 1859, the sheriff of Marion County levied upon and sold lots 7, 8 , 9 and 10 in Blake’s subdivision to Stoughton A. Fletcher, Jr., for S3OO cash. These lots have a total frontage of 135 feet on the east side of Illinois St„ by 170 feet on South St.-Fletch-er was a partner of F. M. Church man, who conducted a banking business. On June 4, 1860, John Stumpn bought lots 7, 8 and 9 In Blake’s subdivision, having a frontage of 101 feet 3 inches on Illinois St., by 170 feet on South St., and lot 6, In the same subdivision, fronting 33 feet 9 inches on the west side of Meridian St., by 10 feet on South St., paying $1,721.25 for the four lots. In April, 186 U Stumph conveyed lot 7, located on the northeast corner of Illinois and South ,Sts., to George Hoppe for $l,lOO. Hoppe conducted a saloon and boarding house on S. Meridian Si and the Illinois and South St. corner was improved by the erection of a two-story brick housed which he owned until his death, May 12, 1868. The entire corner remained in possession of the Hoppe heirs, until in September, 1872, when sold to James Monroe'Crawford, by a commissioner appointed by the court, for $7,000. In the same month Crawford also “AVOID A COMMON PHYSICIANS ADVISE Oyr doctors have faithfully labored with tongue and pen that peopie everywhere understand the danger of neglecting common colds.

purchased the lot adjoining on the north, and having a frontage of 33 feet 9 inches on Illinois St., for which he paid $5,062.50, making his j ttal holdings costing him $12,062.50. 1 The record discloses that in April, 1873, Crawford conveyed both Lots 7 and 8 to William L. Lingenfeltetat a consideration stated as $22,260, thereby showing a profit of $lO,197.50. In May, 1876, Lingenfelter sold YOUR SICA CHILD IS CONSTIPATED! LOOK ATTONGUE Hurry, Mother! Remove poisons from little stomach, liver, bowels Give “California Pig; Syrup” if cross, bilious or feverish

No matter what ails your child, a gentle, thorough laxative should always be the first treatment given. If your little one is out-of-sorts, half sick, isn’t resting, eating and acting naturally—look. Mother! see if tongue is coated. This is a sure sign that the little stomach, liver and bowels are clogged with waste. When cross, irritable, feverish, stomach sour, breath bad or has stomachache, diarrhoea, sore throat, full of cold, give a tablespoon of "California Fig Syrup,” and in a few hours all the constipated poison, undigested food and sour bile gently moves out of the little bowels without griping, and you have a well, playful child again. Mothers can rest easy after giving this harmless, “fruity laxative” because it never fails to cleanse the little one’s liver and bowels and sweeten the stomach, and they dearly love its pleasant taste. Full directions for babies, children of all ages and for grown-ups printed on each bottle. Beware of counterfeit qg syrups. Ask your druggist for a bottle of “California Fig Syrup”; then see that it is made by the “California Fig Syrup Company.”—Advertisement.

THE rush, hurry and worry of modern life throws a heavy strain on the vital organs. We are inclined to eat too much, drink too little water, and get too little fresh air and exercise. It is little wonder that our organs are apt to become sluggish. Good health requires good elimination. If the kidneys fail to fully perform their functions, body poisons are left in the blood stream and one is apt to feel dull, languid, tired and achy. .A dull, nagging backache is sometimes a symptom with drowsy head-
