Ever since child- hood, I have been under the care of physicians and have been paying doctor‘s bills. I was so sick and worn out that people on the street often asked mc if I thought l could get along without help. The same old Stomach Trouble and distressing Headaches nearly drove me wild. Sometime ago, I got s box of “Fruit- s-tives” and the first box did me good. My husband was delighted and advi- sed n continuation of their use. Today, I am feeling fine, and I physician meeting me on the street, noticed my improved appearance and asked the reason. Ireplied, “I ani _ taking Fruit-a-tives".
