of Jerusalem but architects are
mindful of the city's past. One
of the new hotels evokes memories or
the ancient Semitic style although
adapted to modern taste. It Is named
for a king, a famous llible character,
who reigned In Jerusalem nearly 3,000
years ago.

Almost as sacred in the eyes of the
Moslems as are .Mecca ami Medina, J
Jerusalem is a pi o e of pilgrimage for
the Moslem world. For the Jewish
people It is the City of Cities, toward
which their thoughts ever turn. It Is
the tlrst city Christians hear of ut
their mother's knee.
Jerusalem stands upon two hills,
with a slope to the east, facing the
sunrise and the desert. Ravines have
determined the limits of the city on
the eust, south, and west. Northward
the country Is more open and the ancient
city tended to spruwl in this
direction.
In Palestine all, roads lead to the
capital. The south road, from Beersheha,
Hebron and Bethlehem, Joins
the city at the Jaffa gate. Toward
the northwest corner of the city wall
runs the road from the sea nt Jaffa.

Traffic and Shop Contrasts.

but through the din come the more
pleasing notes o' goat and camel bells.
Like the traflic, the shops are In a
transitional state. It Is curious to see
a Bedouin from Beersheba or from
eas of the Jordan, In his sheepskin
coat or camel's hair cloak, standing at
the window of h draper's shop, staring
at a wax figure of a lady dressed In a
French frock. Such contrasts between
the old and the new are typical
of Jerusalem, where eras Jostle one

Read This Carefully .... I
Before Buying MALVA
or Any
Medicine!
"i
By using a so-called panacea you may be laying
yourself at the mercy of two dangers, the lesser of
which would be that it would effect no lasting improvement
in your health. By far the gravest risk
you would run, of course, would be that you were
actually interfering with nature's own attempts to
make your body whole, vigorous and sound.
For years science has fought against the "CureAlls"
that still infest the land. Doctors everywhere
caution their patients and the general public to choose
wisely a remedy that will assist rather than resist their
struggle for health.
MALVA is NOT a "Cure-All." The sponsors of
this medicine acknowledge that no one medicine will
ever take the place of the physician and surgeon.
But there are certain poisons and irregularities in the
vital organs of certain people which form the nest
where thousands of serious ailments and diseases have
their birth and breeding. It is upon such poisons and
irregularities that MALVA is intended to act, and these
organs which MALVA is intended to assist to normal
function.
The tremendous amount of suffering in hundreds of
! varied fqrms, some unbelievable, which can be traced
I to just such conditions would almost astound the person
unfamiliar with the study of physiology and medi
?
cine. In the MALVA Company filers are a multitude
of statements from men and women who have suffered
from susceptibility to cplds, weak and run-down conditions,
severe headaches and backaches, rheumatism,
undue tiredness, loss of appetite, kidney and liver
trouble, dullness, nervousness, bad complexions, and
all such suffering akin to these ailments. Opce rid of
the poisons and disorders which were causing these
troubles, these people became healthy and happy 1
again. These people will be praisers of MALVA for >
the rest of their lives. Many of them keep MALVA
on hand in their medicine chests and use it periodically
as a precaution.
If you are suffering, perhaps MALVA will prove to
be just the medicine you need to put you firmly back j
on your feet again. Ask DePass' Drug Store about _ MALVA

WHAT USERS SAY II
RHEUMATIC AND "RUNDOWN"?NOW
RELIEVED
BEYOND PREVIOUS
ANTICIPATION
"I am 73 years old and .suffered so
long from Rheumatism and a general
.weak and run-down condition that I
had In-gun to believe that nothing in
the world could ever restore my
health. A six-bottle treatment of
MAbVA, the new medicine, has given
me such remarkable relief that I
hardly can believe it's true. I am so
happy that 1 want all the world to
know."?Margaret Katon. 202 Williams
Street, Lockland, O.
The statement above is just one of
thousands where MALVA users have
had such wonderful success with this
I wonderful new family medicine that
they sit down and write to the
MALVA Company about it. A few
more follow. Read them. Can you
fail to put confidence in a medicine
like this?
TAKES MALVA?LIVER AND
KIDNEY TROUBLE DISAPPEARS
Charles Heinz, a Mt. Healthy business
man, like other busy people, neglected
himself until one day he found
himself suffering from all the aches
and pains that come of a disordered
liver and kidney condition. Here is
his experience with .Malva:
"I was so weak, run-down and
wracked with pain from my trouble
that 1 was nearly desperate. My attention
was called to MALVA and I
tried it. Only a brief treatment
brought me relief, and now my neighbors
tell me that I hustle around with
even more pep and ambition than
ever."
GETS RID OF SOUR STOMACH,
INDIGESTION AND
VOMITING
.Mr. Nicholas Hase, 3435 Moulton
Avenue, Cincinnati, makes this statement
about MALVA:
"I suffered for fifteen years or
more from severe pains in my stomach.
My food would not digest. I
\ 1
was troubled constantly with bad
vomiting spells. The gas that accumulated
there caused me a certain
amount of heart trouble. I seemed to
be getting full-force .all the ravages
of a bad stomach at one time. My
first bottle of MALVA gave me a
slight relief and I tried another and
another. After my" fifth bottle I was
entirely rid of this trouble, and from
then on I have been able to eat almost
anything that I like, with never
a pain to make me regret it. MALVA
surely did wonders for me."
CHANGED FROM A WEAK,
SICK PERSON TO A WELL |
AND STRONG ONE I
Louise M. Bress, 3828 Lovell Avenue,
Cheviot, was troubled for about
a year with constant sickness, dysentery,
constipation, terrific pains in
various parts of the body, and other
suffering resulting from a general
run-down condition. She says:
"I took MALVA only three weeks
when I began to gain weight. I used
to be sick all the time. Now I feel
fine every day and weigh 135 pounds.
MALVA changed me from a weak,
sick person t<f a well and strong one."
