No food agreed with him. Acid indigestion made him pos­ itively wretched. In this letter his •wife tells how he got welcome relief; “My husband developed a wretch­ ed form of gastric acidity,” she writ­ es. “Meals were a misery to him. He often could not sleep for heartburn. ‘Business kept him from home a great deal, but when he did get a spell at home, I gave him Kruschen Salts, I •was amazed at the results. That weary look left his face, and his in­ digestion gradually disappeared. It is A treat to hear him say, ‘I’m hungry.’ It seems too good to be true,”— (Mrs.)K.M.E. The numerous salts in Kruschen ■help to promote a natural flow of the ■digestive and other vital juices of the ■body, Soon after you start on Kruschen, you will find that you are able to enjoy your food without dis­ tressing after-effects. And as you ■persevere with the “little daily dose,” you Will see that Kruschen brings glorious relief.
