Konjola Worth SIOO a Bottle This Man States 4< l Am in Perfect Health,” He Declares, Indorsing the New Medicine.

McMullen Hook’s drug store, Illinois and Washington streets, Indianapolis, where he is daily explaining this surprising new compound to large crowds. “My suffering was due to one thing—bowel trouble,” reads Mr. McMullen’s statement. “I suffered with constipation for years, trying numerous remedies but only got temporary relief. I was continually taking a laxative every night and even then with all this, I was sometimes unable to get a bowel action. My stomach would bloat and got very tight. I have gone as high as five days without action whatsoever. The tablets I have used for this purpose would fill a drug store shelf. All these different remedies were taken to give me relief but I can truthfully say that they seldom did so. “It was just through accident that I happeend to buy Konjola. I really did not have much faith in it but thought it deserved a trial as well as the others. I have taken three bottles of Konjola and can truthfully say that I feel like a different person through my entire system. The best I can say for this medicine is that I am in perfect health, if there be such a thing, and naturally I give the credit to Konjola as it is the only medicine that has relieved me during all these years of suffering. I really feel twenty years younger and at my age twenty years means a lot. As I said before, I really think this medicine is worth SIOO a bottle to anyone who needs it. “Anyone desiring to know more of 'my experience with Konjola can do so by calling on me. I am more than glad to give this testimonial, hoping that by so doing, I will help others to regain their health.” This new Konjola is a compound made from juices of 22 different plants, of Nature, and combined with still other proven medical ingredients, all scientifically tested and blended into a single preparation that acts upon the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels. Konjola works with the sufferer’s own food, assisting Nature to restore the in-ner-organs to healthy, normal action. People throughout this entire section have reported such amazing relief and benefit from this new compound that it is believed no suffering person can afford not to try it. The Konjola Man is at Hook’s drug store, Illinois and Washington streets, Indianapolis, where he is daily meeting the public and introducing and explaining the merits of this remedy. Konjola is also sold by all Hook stores in this city and by all druggists throughout this entire section.—Advertisement,

Soon Overcame Bad Indigestion Oklahoma Lady Tells How She Was Helped in Throwing Oft Her Troubles by Taking BlackDraught. “I have recommended BlackDraught to a great many people, and they always thank me, afterwards,” says Mrs. Czarina Doke, 115 Third Ave., N. W., Ardmore, Okla. “Fifteen years ago, I was in very bad health. I suffered a great deal with indigestion, and I traveled from one place to another in search of health, but nothing helped me. I lost in weight, my food disagreed with me, and I could scarcely eat a bite that did not give me indigestion. “Often I had bad gas pains across my stomach, and I would wake up in the mornings with very bad headaches. I had a bad taste in my mouth, and would feel dizzy when I was on my feet. “I began taking Black-Draught and soon found that I was getting better. I took a dose about the size of a pea, four or five times a day, for three or four days. “After I had taken several courses of Black-Draught, in that way, I felt fine. I no longer had indigestion.* I could eat what I liked, and enjoyed my meals. I gained in weight, and felt able to care for my children and do housework. My system was freed from the poison which had accumulated and seemed to be the cause of all my trouble.”

CHILD HEALTH U. S. KEYNOTE FORJAY DAY Labor Disorders Reported in Poland, Japan; Russia Quiet. By United Press WASHINGTON, May I.—May Day is “Child’s Health Day” in the United States and is, generally speaking, no longer a day set aside by organized labor for celebrations, making of new contracts, or airing grievances. Officials of the American Federation of Labor said today that only communists and radicals now use May Day for calling strikes, and j that such moves are not sanctioned by organized labor. “There is a presidential proclamation setting aside May 1 as Chiid Health Day and it can not be used for other celebrations,” an official of the A. F. of L. told the United Press. “Strikes called for May Day are organized by radicals who are attempting overthrow of the Government. “Labor has only one day to celebrate and that is Labor Day, the first Monday in September.” l'u United Press WARSAW, May I.—Two persons ' were killed today and fifty injured in a May Day clash between Socialists and communists. Many arrests were made in Warsaw and other Polish cities.

Every Passenger Counts

The Illinois Central System is equipped and organized to provide good passenger service for small as well as for large requirements. The larger items in passenger service, such as excursion and long-distance travel, attract the most attention and provide the bulk 4f present-dav railway passenger revenue, but the smaller items the movement of individual passengers for short distances—play an important part in the success of railway passenger business. Both kinds of*patronage are needed and wanted. Trains are a virtual necessity for long trips. Here are some reasons why they should also be used for short trips: Travel by train is pleasant and cheap. The person who rides ten miles as well as the person who rides a thousand will find clean and comfortable cars on Illinois Central trains. The Illinois Central organization has a reputation for the kind of courtesy which goes far to make a journey pleasant. Then, too, the price of the service is much less, as a rule, than the cost of operating an automobile ail equal distance. Patronage of the train helps to insure a continuance of its essential, all-weather service. The passenger service of a railroad is, in one way or another, an always-impor-tant asset to communities along its line. Trains are just about indispensable for the carrying of mail, baggage and express, and for the carrying of passengers they have no equal in safety and dependability. Lack of patronage, however, imperils not merely one but all of these advantages. Good service and low” prices, on the rail-i-u] ns well ns in other lines of business, are made possible by mass production. The greater tiie volume of business, therefore, other factors being equal, the more the railroad and its patrons stand to benefit therefrom. No matter what the length or the frequency of their journeys, travelers on the Illinois Central System are assured of a cordial appreciation of their patronage and a sincere desire to merit its continuance. Constructive criticism and suggestions are invited. L. A. DOWNS, President, Illinois Central System CHICAGO, May 1,1928.
