KONJOLA PROVED A GREAT MEDICINE ON Well-Known Indianapolis Man Says New Compound Is Sure to Help Anybody. "No one knows any more about the merits of Konjola than I do, because I took this medicine on two occasions, and both times it did the work, so I know it is sure to help anybody who gives it a trial,’' said Mr. Barney Daley, a- citizen of Indianapolis for twenty-two years, living at 509 S. Senate Ave., this city,

MR. BARNEY DALEY in a report which he gave In person to the Konjola Man, who explains this celebrated new compound to crowds of men and women dally at Hook's Drug Store, Pennsylvania and Market Sts., Indianapolis. “Last April." continued Mr. Daley, "I decided to take Konjola for atomach tiouble, and two bottles of this medicine completely ended all the cramps, indigestion painr, dizzy spells and other stomach miseries I had. Then recently I developed hemorrhoids, and took a certain medicine for this trouble which was so Gtrong that it hurt my stomach, and I began to suffer with indigestion. I Immediately returned to the use ©t Konjola, and one_ bottle put my stomach In healthy condition for the second tim- I have never had a return of my trouble, and besides, I want to tell you how Konjola ended the neuritis pains I had. “My first touch of neuritis occurred about a year before I -knew fcbout Konjola. The pains had centered in my shoulder, and all last ■ winter I never slept on my right ' side, because it ached almost constantly and I very seldom had a night’s rest. Os course, I had stomach trouble at the.same time, and that is what I really took Konjola for. Well, I was surprised when Konjola seemed to ease up my neuritis, and improve my stomach at the same time. When I finished the first two bottles I was free of this neuritis in my shoulders and arm, and Aince April I have never a pain and can rest good at nights. “After my experience with Konjola, I can say it is the most wonderful medicine I ever tried and will always indorse it.” Konjola Is non-alcoholic. It Is different than any medicine previously known. Where many ordinary remedies contain only 7 or 8 herbal Ingredients, which merely act as a laxative, this new Konjola contains twenty-two Juices extracted from natural plants which invigorate the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels to more healthy action. The effect of Konjola on the whole inner Rystem 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 Indianapolis have benefited by taking Konjola, until now it has become the most highly indorsed medicine that is known in this vicinity. Konjola Man is at Hook's 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 Indlan■j poll®, and by all druggists in the nearby towns throughout this section.—Advertisements

(READ THE STORY, THEN COLOR THE PICTURE)

As dark clouds gathered overhead, the Tinies, to the snowman said, "It's nearing night, and now you needn’t worry' ’bout the sun. We’ve built a snowhouse, close at hand, not high enough for you to stand, but you can crawl right in the place to sleep. ’Twill be much fun.” So, in the snow house they all went, and there the long, cold night was spent. ’Course Mister Snowman didn’t sleep. He couldn't close his eyes. And so, although the ground was hard, he merely sat .all night, on guard, and, in the morning, woke the bunch to watch the big sun rise. Outside they went, and played some more, not knowing Just what was in store. Wee downy left the rest and found a bush of berries sweet. ’’Hurrah!” he shouted, “All sit down, and I will pass these berries ’round.” Os course he didn't have to ask them twice, to make them eat. Then, as they saw the snowman jump, it made ther little hearts go “thump.” “I think the sun is melting me,” the frightened snowman cried. And, sure enough, his head 'grew loose, and soon he whispered, “What’s the use of trying to keep on living when I’m weakening inside?” Alas, poor snowman smaller grew, and Scouty said, ‘ What can we do? I think we ought to save him, if we just can find a way.” But, as the sun shone very hot, they realized that there was not a chance to save their melting friend ndt even for a day. How sad it was to watch liifn go GAIN IN GAS TAXES Increase of $1,521,319 in the 1926 gasoline tax, over tliat of 1925, was registered by figures given out today by A. N.
