Mrs. Coenenberg has lived in Salem for- the last 20 years and is a prominent member of the Amer ican Lutheran Church. Read her sincere testimonial; which follows: j Couldn't Raise Her Arms Above Her Shoulders! "For the last 7 years I had suffered almost constantly with my sour, gassy stomach and ter rible rheumatic pains," said Mrs. Coenenberg. "It seemed like everything I ate soured and fer mented In my stomach and filled me full of awful gas. Then I'd be la such misery with the gas pressure and bloating that I'd get down sick. My bowels were always constipated, too, in fact, 1 had to take a strong physic al most every day in order . to get any relief from my constipation. Ify system seemed to be contam inated with the poisonous wastes in my sluggish organs. Besides this, I suffered with the most ex cruciating rheumatic pains j ail over my body, but, which were most severe In my a r m s and shoulders and In the back of my neck. The muscles in the upper part of my body would get; so stiff and sore that I could not raise my arms above my shoul- "ders, and if I did try to move them, It felt like the muscles . were being torn- right out of me. My fingers and hands would well up and get numb and the -pain was intense when I tried to use them for the work I had to do. - "Several weeks ago I started taking Van-Tage and it gave me auch wonderful, quick relief that - I don't believe there Is happier person In Salem than I am now. It relieved the sourness and helped to clear se much gaa from my stomach that my gas pains and bloating have been relief ed and my food digests now like it should. It a 1 s o helped cleanse my sluggish bowels and they are Acting more' normally than they - have in a long time. Since so much waste matter has been1 cleansed from me," even the onlxing rheumatic pains and the awful stiffness and soreness In the back of my neck and across my shoulders has been relieved and the muscles la my hands and arms hay limbered up so much that I can raise my. arms above K my head, and nse v them , freely. Van-Tage 'was really a God-Send to me and I am glad to recom mend it to others who suffer like I did."

Business Improves Women are familiar with brands advertised in newspapers, magazines and billboards and un derstand these advertisements , to be the manufacturer's pledge of uniform quality. Having these products in the store and on dis play is the mark of an enterpris ing merchant who ties his bus iness in with the millions of dol lars expended nationally to help him sell the brand for which a demand has been created. "Business is on the upgrade ev erywhere because of consumer confidence," Wachtman contin-used-. : "More persons are being em ployed as faster movement of goods requires additional man power for distribution." "This trend is gathering im petus, with present-da"y merchan dising and feature -sales being a true indication of a whole heart ed, effort on the part of manufac turers and distributors of goods to join in encouraging bona fide spending."
