At 76 Kruschen Conquered His Complaint At 86 years of age, this man is still going strong, yet 10 years ago he was laid up for weeks with an at­ tack of sciatica. Read how he keeps fit in spite of his advanced age:— "Ten years ago, I was laid up for about a month with a severe attack of sciatica. I was quite unable to sleep and I suffered a great deal, I tried several remedies, but obtained little relief. At last I saw one of your advertisements, and decided to give Kruschen a trial. I stuck to it and took about half-a-teaspoonful every morning in my coffee and my sciatica gradually went, I was 86 last month —still going strong—and my friends ask me how I keep my clear skin and healthy looks. I tell them all it is due to Kruschen Salts.”—C.T.L. Whether you are in your 'teens or past your prime, it is neither too ear­ ly nor too late to start on the "little daily dose." Just a tiny, tasteless pinch in your .morning tea or coffee -—that’s the Kruschen rule for con­ stant fitness. LOCAL AND PERSONAL Mrs. Wm.

Pausing a moment, he ran his hand professionally across the chin of the man in the chair. "Shall I go over it again?” he ask­ ed. “No,” grunted the bored and irate customer, "I heard every blinking word.” i The path was zigzag and very steep and, to make matters worse, we had a strong wine to contend with. — Weekly Paper. Surely the zigzag path came in very handy. 1938 DODGE HERE TO SAVE YOU MONEY! WHETHER YOU'RE TALL OR SHORT you get perfect driving vision...
