"My stomach was disordered; liver was sluggish and torpid, and my kidneys were affected, and yet, as bad as my condition had become, this Konjola medicine gave me wonderful relief so that I have improved all over my system. "My stomach caused mo the worst suffering. If I ate only a few bites 1 1 would have a full feeling, and would bloat and my food would sour. [ My heart would burn like fire, and [ when I tried to sleep at nights I I would roll and toss for hours, felt ! tired and all fagged out in the morn--1 ing when I got up. I was nervous j at all times, and my kidneys got so weak I had sharp pains in my back and my limbs hurt from my knees down to the end of my toes. The liver trouble brought on dizzy headaches, bilious spells and I lost weight and strength. I tried almost everything I heard of, but I seemed to get worse instead of better. “Well right at that time my wife I began taking Konjola, and she said ] it was helping her so much, and she persuaded me to take this medicine. By the time I had taken the second bottle I belt better than I did in years. Now my nervousness is all gone, stomach in wonderful condition, and I’ve gained r. lot of weight Konjola took effect on my whole system in just a few days. I can eat like a hungry child now, so naturally my weight and strength is coming back. My foodiis digesting properly and I don’t suffer from gas and bloating like I used to. My kidneys are in good condition, and the pains in my back and limbs are relieved. I don't have the dizzy headaches and bilious spells any more, because my liver is in fine working order.

CITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES
HOME INSULATION GROWING GENERAL An increasing number of homeowners and prospective liome-owyiers are becoming acquainted with the, excellent qualities and many advantages of Flax-li-num as a tnoden, practical economical insulation for houses, a building product handled exclusively in Indianapolis by Vonnegut Hardware Cos., 120-124 E. Washington St. Many ho.aes were built when the theory and science of insulation was not understood as thoroughly as It is today. In many modern houses, Flax-li-num has corrected shortcomings of former years, insulating the houses against the heat of summer and the cold of winter, and giving greater coinfort and economy. Although a house may be constructed already, the application of inch layers of Flax-li-num to the attic floor has been shown to reduce the annual fuel cost. The installation is a simple and inexpensive job, and when once installed the highly efficient, heat-resisting material will prevent the heat which the roof absorbs in summer from being transmitted to the interior. In winter the use of Flax-li-num will prevent the heat, which costs good money to provide, from leaking out through the ceilings and yoof. Tests have shown that sixtytwo per cent of the heat loss In a house is through the top floor ceilings and roofs. Flax-li-num is provided in one-half inch layers for use in sidewalls and one inch layers for top floor ceilings and roofs. It is a thick material of felted flax fibres, neither limp nor board-like, but semi-rigid, and easily installed without danger of tearing, breaking or puncturing.
