Mrs Brown resides at 1738 South 27th street, Omaha, and tells of her experience with Akos as fol- lo! “I suffered with rheumatism in my back, arms and shoulders for five years. At times the pain was so bad that | would have to stop everything and resc. 1 visited springs and tried many reme- dies but the afllment would not leave. When Akos was first introduced in Om- aha, my husband brought some of the treatment home for me. The mineral plasters on my back and shoulders drew out much of the pain the first night. In a few weeks' time the mineral water made from the internal powder, with the assietance of the plasters, improved me wonderfully. Since then recovery has been very rapid. Not only has the min- MRE.
