Probably no man in Carmel more widely known or highly respected than Mr. Charles W Graves, who has spent 70 of his

| 82 years in this one township and owns one of the finest farm homes in Indiana. What Mr. Graves has to say on any subject is listened to with respect by all who know him, and his unqualified indorsement of the sensational new herbal medi- | cine Retonga, will be read with in- | terest throughout this section. “It is remarkable how Retonga helped me right from the start, and I can say from my own experience that it is a truly great herb tonic and builder,” declared Mr. Graves. “I had been troubled with a bad stomach and kidney disorders for | two years, and had tried many medicines, but got only a little relief while taking them. Then I would be as bad off as ever. My food would sour and ferment, and gas would press into my chest until I could hardly breathe. I had severe headaches and my bowels would not move unless I took a laxative. My kidneys and bladder bothered and distressed me constantly and I could get but little sound sleep, and I would feel as bad in the morning as when I went to bed. “Retonga began helping me right

I don't have to take laxatives any more, and the bilious dizzy attacks I used to have are gone. I sleep fine and wake up feeling rested and refreshed. In fact, I am again feeling like my old self, and it is not only a pleasure, but also my duty, to let others know what Retonga will do.” In commenting on Mr. Graves’ statement, Mr. C. W. Garing, special Retonga representative at Hook's Dependable Drug Store, S. E. corner Illinois and Washington Sts., said: “Mr. Graves’ statement is naturally very gratifying. Almost without exception, elderly people find Retonga brings comfort and improvement from their ills. Mr. Graves’ statement is additional proof of this fact.” Retonga may be obtained at all Hook's Dependable Drug Stores and

other good drug stores throughout this section.
