Benson of Baltimore, had considerable worry about hls deughter. For over a year he was kept-in anxiéty, but it seems from the follpwing letter that he and his daughter are both worry-free now: “I have been talking about your Dr. True's Elixir, It is great stuff! The Elixir is doing good work for my daughter; please send us two bottles. Yours for health.”—W. H. Benson. Scores and scorés of such letters show us that Dr. True's Elixir has been most guccessful for use in re- lieving constipation. Watch these symptoms: Constipa- tion, sour stomach, biliousness, cragps, eyes heavy and dull, bad breath, all gone feeling, headaches. They may lead to more serious con- ditions—bad colds, grippe, etc. To ward off or make attack light, take Dr. Trué's Elixir, 40c—60c: 20. 7 BECAME GROCER WITH DIVIDED INTEREST WILLIAM of service in the fire department, he will have an annual income of $9,000 from his $200,000 investments. He owns a 23-family apartment dwelling, numerous small houses and 350 lots. The neighbors in this little town where he lives say they wouldn't be surprised if in another flve years Bill turned out to be a millionaire. Right now he's only 45. s 1 went over to call on Bill to ask him what he intended doing with all that money. Bill himself came out on the porch to greet me. He had on a blue sweater and I could see he was getting a little bald. “L suppose,” I said, “that you're going to do quite a little fixin' up with that $200,0007" “Not at all,” said Bill. “We've been livin' the same way for 20 years and we don’t intend to change now. Hey, Kate, put on another pork chop ! There's company come to dinner.” LR Here, according to Bill, was the way it happened: He'd always wanted a little plaee in the country with chickens and so on, and one day, 20 years ago, he sold out his grocery store, paid up his debts, pocketed the $200 that re- mained and started looking around. The ‘place, when he found it, con- sisted of four-and-a-half acres and two houses and the owner wanted $5,- 500 for it. Bill borrowed the money somehow, got a job in the fire de- partment, moved into one of the houses and the next month sold the other house at $500 profit. ! He's been selling things at profit ever since. 'Along about 1916 Bill got an idea that there weren't enough three and four-room apartments for young married people and old couples. him, so Bill had to go out of town to get the money. But the day those apartments were finished there were; 50 families on the waiting list. All the bankers laughed at | AL A FIREMAN WORKED REAL £ ESTATE ON THE SDE J.

And we go straight from where we are now to where the article is sold. Have you ever gone around from place to place seeking for something which you knew existed but which nobody else seemed to know anything about, not even the storekeepers? You have wasted an hour, mayhe several hours, possibly half a day. You have worn out your patience, and before the end of the quest probably you began to figure that the thing which you sought was not, after all, so good as you thought it was, other- wise other people hesides yourself would know something about The manufacturer who advertises, invests his money, there- fore, not alone-to tell of the merits of his goods but to save you time. The manufacturer who is willing to pay for advertising space in newspapers or magazines in order to point out to you where his merchandise is sold, so that you may get there quicker and .lt)uy it easier, is not going to skimp or cheat in manufactur- ing it. After going to all the trouble and expense of telling you just where you may find it, he is going to,see to it that when you do it, it is good enough so that you will huy it again. And in making up your mind about merchandise which is ad- vertised, consider this last thought—the manufacturer can well afford to make it as good as it can he made hecause one sale means hundreds, even thousands of others following naturally costing him nothing extra.
