History, one of its chief “products,” | has again brought Gottland Island, in the Baltic Sea, into the world news Sixty-seven Byzantine gold coins, prob ably buried when Gottland was the trade center between Northern Europe and the Near East, have just been un- earthed on the island. “In seven hours modern steamships from Stockholm land the traveler at Visby, largest city and principal gate- way to the island; and, incidentally, in this short time, the pages of history turn back several centurles,” says a bullet from the National Geographic Societ. “From the steamer deck the old gray | Pilots’ Association. stone wall which was built around Visby ~Associated Press Photo. | in the 1200s resembles the ramparts of | an old fort, but inside more than 10,000 T A | sturdy islanders have lived peacefully since before American Colonial days.

Original- in these alleylike thoroughfares no wider than the sidewalks of many streets in our larger cities, the steep-gabled build- ings, perhaps nearly as old as the wall, | are still holding their own against mod- | ern encroachments. If you are fortu- nate & native may show you his cellar, where the wealthy merchants of Visby's prosperous days ftored their rich wares. “To thus scribe Visby, leaves an tmpression that only lovers of antiques could enjoy a visit to the town; but frequently in the narrowest byway, | small openings flame with the color of the famous Visby rose, and here and there the uppermost limbs of & muberry or walnut tree thrust themselves over the wall of a private garden. Smaller Than Rhode Island. “The same atmosphere that one finds at Visby obtains throughout the island The railroad trains from Visby station erun within 20 miles of nearly every square foot of Gottland, which is just 100 square miles smaller in area than Rhode Island. They carry the traveler through forests which cover approxi- mately half the island, as well as through the fertile rolling country where Gottland farmers raise barley. rye, wheat, oats and sugar beets. Some of this produce is exported to Sweden. “Few of the quaint little towns of the island are without the ruins of one of the early church buildings built with funds of Visby merchants. It is not uncommon to see a few vine-clad arches amidst piles of stone, marking the site of an old edifice which was once, perhaps, the dominating building of a thrifty community. “Many relics of the Bronze Age and Iron Age have been found in Gottland and many coins dating from the first| century A. D.. have been uncovered.| During the Middle Ages, when Visby was the center of the North Eurpean trade, it drew merchants from the East and West, and the town became one of the most important members of the famous Hanseatic League. “Visby's prosperity caused its doom, for the Danish King Valdemar Atter- dag, incited by the stories of the town's | fabulous wealth, set out for Gottland on a successful plundering expedition in 1361. From that time Visby de- clined in importance and all Gottland followed.” CRIMINDLOG|ST NAMED TO HELP CRIME BOARD Dr. Herman H. Adler Appointed to Advise on Psychiatric Phases of Study. Dr. Herman M.

KING From far and near come words of praise for Miller's Herb Extract (formerly called Herb Juice), the famous medicine that has brought relief and happiness to thousands in Washington alone. As one man Te- marked a few days ago, it seemed as though everywhere he went, peo- ple were talking about it. Mr. N. R. King, 108 Warren Avenue, Aurora Hills, Virginia, who formerly lived in Washington for fifteen years said a few days ago y wife and I both use this medicine and I can vouch for its superiority to other prepara- tions of a like kind, in fact, out of all of the different ones I have used, none can compare with this Herb Extract. For years past I suffered almost continually with stomach disorders, gas. indigestion, bloating ! after meals, pains in back also legs | and arms and of late I had a great deal of headaches. There seemed to be black spots floating before my eyes, I had pains in my chest also across the back and regardless of how many different laxatives I used, | I was always constipated. wife bought a bottle of this medicine and when I saw the change it made in | her, I said, ‘Well, I will try it also, and believe me it has proven to be | real medicine and worthy of all the praise it receives. Thanks to it, I no longer suffer with my stomach as I did in the past, no more gas or indigestion pains, pains gone from legs and arms and I feel better in every way than I have for years. I also find that Miller’s Herb Extract (formerly called Herb Juice) acts fine on the liver, regulates the bowels and cleans the system of all poison. ‘The best part of it is, that after a few days I was able to reduce the dose, thereby making it a very inex- pensive treatment. If any of my friends are bothered with the above trouble I advise them to begin using this medicine at once.” If you feel in need of this medi- cine ‘don’t experiment with some- thing supposed to be just as good, go to the Peoples Drug Store, 505 7th Street N.W. talk to the man who is there for the sole purpose of explaining er's Herb Extract (formerly called Herb Juice) and learn why it is the choice of hun- dreds of thousands.
