Here's One Good Way To END AGONY OF NEURITIS Newark Man Knows How and Loses 10 Pounds 'Gentlemen : I. used Kruschen Salts to try and get rid of Neuritis from which I had suffered for one year in my left shoulder and arm: I took a little of the salts In the morning, sometimes In my coffee, other times In water. I would also occasionally take a dose In water at night before retiring. For 3 months used the salts and while I lost 10 pounds In weight, the pain In my shoulder HAS ENTIRELY DISAP PEARED. During the time I was taking the salts I received no other medical treatment so I am fully con vinced the Kruschen Salts did the trick." C. K. Murray, Newark, N. J.

"Fisher Controlled Ventilation" here's a magic phrase that means more than you can believe till you've experienced it yourself. At a turn of a handle you adjust ventilators get the breeze just where you want it, and in just the volume you want. It is really controlled ventilation, you see and you, yourself, control it, not the speed of the car or the oireciion of the breeze. This one feature alone would make Pontiac an outstanding car compared with others at or near its price. Hut Pontiac gives more. It is a Straight Eight, with a 77-horsepower engine that gives 78 real miles per hour. It is a big car 115-inch whcelbase, and due to its balanced weight and design, it gives you safety, comfort, durability. Ail this may lead you to think of Pontiac as a costly car. Hut its first cost is low and as for operat ing, ask any Pontiac owner, and you'il learn that it is giving 1 5 miles or more to the gallon. Try a demonstration. And don't foriret that if Stakes a Straight tight to give Straight Eight per- lormanre. no sure to try rtsner controlled Ventila (ion. You'll be amazed and delighted.
