THIS SAN ANTONIO
MAN HAO STOMACH
TROUBLE 2 YEARS
Now Relates How the Plant
Juice Medicine Has Given
Him Relief.
"Your Plant Juice medicine surely
'has improved me in many ways and
I am glad to recommend it to every-
body” said Mr. Charles Landry well
known San Antonio man living at
422 Cooper street during n recent
conversation with The Plant Juice
MR. CHAS. LANDRY
Han who is introducing Plant Juice
In the local publie at Sommer's drug
store. Houston and Navarro streets.
"For two years I had been suf-
fering with my stomach.” Mr. Lan-
dry continued “and the last f-w
months the trouble had grown until
I was getting weak. I had no ap-
petite and the little I ate would fer-
ment in my stomach and bring on
gas and bloating. I often felt like
there was a ton of weight in toy
stomach. The gas in my stomach
would cause pains in my back and
sides and would result in shortness
of breath and during some of those
spells I would become light-headed.
I was constipated; my liver was in
a sluggish torpid condition and I
felt drowsy and tired out all the
time so that it was an' effort for
me to even move.
“Of course. 1 tried many different
medicines but without much relief
.and then I beard of your Plant
Juice nnd started taking it and ns
1 said before it surely has improved
me in many ways. The stomach
trouble 1 had before has disappeared
now. I have a fine appetite and
never Suffer from gas or sour stom-
ach or the pains I used to have.
The constipation lifts been relieved;
my liver is improved so that the
tired out feeling is gone and I surely
am glad to indorse Plant Juice after
what it did for me.”
Plant Juice is a splendid combina-
tion of the juices of roots herbs and
leaves. It is a powerful prepara-
tion and many people say that it
teems to act like magic on the
itomneb. liver and kidneys giving
vonderful relief from indigestion
■onstipation gas and bloating bilious-
iesk headaches pain and agony in
itomach and chest pains in back
ind the many other complications of
.tomneh. liver and kidney trouble.
The Plant Juice Man is at Som-
ner's drug store Houston and Na-
arro streets. San Antonio where lie
» daily meeting the local public and
ntroducing nnd explaining the merits
if this remedy. Free samples given.
Plant Juice is sold also in San
Vittorio nt all of the other Sommer's
rug stores. - 1
