X McCormick Junior 1 Home Economic Association Meets “I know of no better way to help those suffering as I did than to tell them of my happy experience with Retonga,” gratefully declares Mrs. E. R. Kerr, well known resi dent of 1308 Grand Ave„ Knox ville, Tenn., one of the most high ly respected women of her sec tion. “For several years I suffered al most daily distress from acid in digestion,” continued Mrs. Kerr. “Food just seemed to sour almost by the time it entered my stom ach, and then I would suffer for hours from gas pains and a full stuffy feeling. My appetite fell off, and I slept so poorly that I would always wake up after an hour or two. Sluggish elimination kept me taking laxatives all the time. Nobody knows how worn out I felt. “Three bottles of Retonga gave MRS. E. R. KERR me such wonderful relief that I began to eat, sleep and feel lik? a different person. If I have th? slightest symptom of the old dis tress a few doses of Retonga lix"s me right up. Retonga is the grand est medicine I ever saw.” Retonga is intended to relieve distress due to Vitamin B-l defi ciency, constipation, insufficient flow if digestive juices in the stom ach, and loss of appetite. Accept no substitute. Retonga may be obtained at Peoples Drug Store. —Adv.
