go to New’ York if you have followed
these three rules:—
(1) Insist that all your dealings in
stocks be in writing. Before giving a I

you all he hats said. Never listen to
a stock salesman on the telephone. \

Your best help should come from

MRS. W. C. PATTY
“I Felt Weak, Nervous and
Rundown, Couldn’t Eat Right,
Couldn’t Sleep Right. Feel Fine
and Regained 10 Pounds On
Scalfs Indian River Medicine,”
Declares Mrs. Patty.
Today you can chase the embar
rassing and stubborn “Ghost of the
Past” from your after meals—(faster
than ever, because Scalf’s Indian
River Medicine makes gastric stom
ach misery, smothering, bloating and
nauseating distress quicker to get rid
of. Don't expect to get relief from
headache, sour stomach, gas and bad
IrreaUi by taking soda or other alka-
lizers, if the cause of your trouble is
ioss of appetite, with resultant
smothering gas pressure pains caus
ing weak, nervous rundown feeling.
Let Scalfs Indian River Medicine
show you, as it has others, how
quickly you can be feeling on top of
the world.
For example, Mrs W. C. Patty,
Route 1, Waltond. Term, writes bow
Scalfs Indian Mvcr Medicine made
the difference in her life. Mrs. Pat
ty is a charming young mother of
two sons and one daughter. Be
sides home making, she does exten
sive church work. She serves as
Choir Director, Junior Leader for
B. T. U., Junior R. A. Leader for
boys, Associational B. T. U. Group
Director, also Associational W. M.
U. Standard Marker for Ghilhowie
Association—all these activities in
Prospect Baptist Church to which she
belongs. Needless to say, all these
church activities are enough work to
require a lot of strength and energy,
even if She didn’t have her home
making duties. It is little wonder
that Mrs. Patty felt the need of a
good, dependable medicine like
Scakf’s Indian River Medicine.
Here is the story; “For a year I felt
nervous and underweight and suf
fered from low blood pressure. Of
ten I couldn’t rest during the day
nor sleep at night. I feel that most
of my trouble was due to the fact
over-exertion had robbed me of my
appetite and caused me to suffer
from indigestion. Since I’ve been
taking Scalfs Indian River Medicine
I eat heartily, sleep well, and the
good diet I’m now able to follow has
helped me to put on ten pounds of
badly needed weight. In fact, I feel
like a nerw person on Scalf’s Indian
River Medicine and I want others to
learn / about this great medicine."
Unless you’ve actually tried Scalf’s
Indian River Medicine you honestly
don’t know what you are missing.
For Scalf’s Indian River Medicine
is so different from every other
medicine. Today—this very day-
get your bottle of Scalfs Indian
River Medicine. Your money back
on the very find botette if not en
tirely satisfied.
