MR. J. F. GIFFORD ford in a statement received a few days ago by the Konjola Man at Hook’s Drug Store, Pennsylvania and Market Sts., Indianapolis, where be is explaining this surprising new compound to large crowds of people dally. Mr. Gifford has been station agent for the Union Traction Company at Atlanta, ihd. (36 miles north of In dianapolis), for the past thirty years. “I am prepared to back up everything I say in this letter if you publish it," continued Mr. Gifford. "I was almost down and out with rheumatism. Nearly everybody here in Atlanta will verify my statement when I say I iiad to walk with crutches since January, 1322, and today I can get around without them —have been walking as good as anybody else for over a month, and I frankly admit Konjola did the work. "I got my first touch of rheumatism in 1921—a sharp pain in my right limb. This hurt me so bad 1n spells that It nearly took my breath away. I was taken home from the station and I thought I was paralyzed. I got a little better, but then started to get worse again. This time my feet were numb and burned like flro. My ankles swelled up, then my knee joints got sore and stiff and pains would run clear up to my back I kept getting worse until I had to walk with crutches. I kept on with my work, hobbling from home to the office,which was only three blocks. I would go about 100 yards and then I had to sit down and rest. Everybody looked upon me as a cripple. 1 suffere3'this way 3 years, and I have proof to show that I tried medicine upon medicine, and one treatment after another. I have taken dozens of remedies that did me no more good than so much water. I never expected to get well again. “In my work I meet a lot of traveling peoplp and railroad men from Indianapolis. A lot of these people told me about Konjola. I sent for this medicine, but I will truthfully say that 'I had no faith in It until about the third day when I noticed the swelling in my knees was reduced and some of the pains were gone. I could sleep better. I kept on taking Konjola and the second week I felt like I could get along without crutches, so I left them at home. I tell you, I felt like a man set free. Two people stopped me in less than 5 minutes after I left the hpuse. Os course, they wanted to know all about wba f I had done for myself, and I told them how Konjola helped me. The word spread aroWid from ono person to another, and three people came to see m e. I think I have gotten at least a dozen others to take Konjola, and this medicine has never failed to do the work for my friends, and I am recommending it right along. “Yes, Konjola ended my rheumatism I will repeat my statement about Konjola to any one who sees me personally or writes me a letter. I intend to praise this medicine as long as I live." 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 remedv. Koniola is sold by every Hook Store in Indianapolis and by all good druggists in the nearbv t-wvris ' throughout this section. —Ad vert isement.
