Popular Man Is
Now Very Happy
Has Been "Built Up"; Until
Can Now Get Upstair
Easily.
The old adage, "That nothing suc
ceeds like . success," Is proven true
every day. Plant Juice, the new herbal
stomach remedy Is a success, .and It is
such because It succeeds. 4f Plant
Juice was other than an article of ex
traordinary merit no such an outburst
of public approval could be had.
That Plant Juice is repeating its
success here is proven every day by
the large, number of local testimonials
received from people in signed state
ments as to the benefits they have re
ceived from its use. Recently Mr.
Henry Nesmith, who lives at No. 1229
Monterey Street, North Bide, who is
77 years of age and has lived in Pitts
burg all his life, said:
"I was 'all run down' and In a bad
fix. My stomach and kidneys pained
me something awful. I could scarcely
go up and down stairs. My appetite
was poor and I was a nervous wreck.
I had lost all hope of ever being any
better. I had tried every thing 1 ever
heard of, but received no help until I
began the use of Plant Juice. I can
truthfully' say that this medicine has
built me up until I can go up and
down stairs easily and do not tire;
my appetite is fine and the pains have
disappeared from my stomach and kid
neys. 1 sleep fine and my bowels are
regular. 1 want all suffering humanity
to know that Plant Juice has been a
Ood-send. I would not take $2000
for what Plant Juice has done for me."
Plant Juice is sold in Portland by
The Owl Drug Co., at Broadway and
Washington street, where it Is being
Introduced and Its merits explained.
