People of La Grande' are

is the .talk of the entire city.
And the same thing is true
all over Oregon.
Notwithstanding' the fact
thiit all former sales records
have been broken by the sen
sational medicine the demand
for Karnak grows so rapidly
that druggists can hardly
keep pace with it,
"The way Oregon people
arc now buying Karnak Is al
most unbelievable," declared
the Oregon wholesale distrib
utor. "I huve been in the
drug business for a long time,
but I have never seen any
thing like Karnak.
"In spitu of the fnct that
Karnak sales have ulreuily
been a revelation to us, the
demand Is now continually
Increasing nnd fast reaching
the phenomenal stage."
Such expressions as this are
typical of Karnak sales reports
everywhere. The remarkable
licnith-hiillding powers of the
medicine nre now acknowledged
everywhere. Thousands of people
report nmuxlng benefits from Its
use and all their friends UQd

"Kurnuk lius done for me what
I thought wus impossible for any

"I hud such terrible pains In
my slnmneh it seemed like it wus
more than I could bear." contin

"Then, too, I had such pains

they were, almost useless. And my
limbs hurt me so I couldn't walk
a block without giving out.
'Well, sir, tills Kurnak has
brought me more relief in Just two
