Poisonous Impuri ties were so clogged-up from con ' stlpatlon that I would become dltzy and have to hold to some thing to keep from falling. My digestion was affected and 1 soon lost my appetite. 1 knew each meal was sure to be followed with that terrible gas, bloating and at tacks of indigestion. 'ISien, to add to my distress I was troubled with such awful pains, settling in my left side and hip which was almost unbearable at times. I was unable to get much rest or sleep at nght on account of my suffering and nervousness. 1 continually grew worse all the time even though I ti led to get relief through various medicines and remedies but they all failed to reach my stubborn cute. Then I heard so mnny people lauding the action of this laxative-tonic, KruGon, I de cided to give it a trial. That will ever be a happy day in my life when I bought my first box of KruGon. "Even before I began to realize It KruGon began with Its thorough action," continued Mrs. Garrett. "Poisonous impurities are being elimlnuted since my bowels me functioning in a regular and nat ural manner. My digestion is now In a normal condition and t eat the foods 1 wish without the slight est of fear of those awful alter effects of Ras, bloating, and Indi gestion. My appetite is restored and 1 no longer am nervous or have those terrible dizzy spells. Then, too, those dreadful stabbing pains ill my side and hip have been relieved. Life has taken a diflerent aspect for ma since the wonderful change In my health. I get full nights of restful sleep and arise with new pep, strength and energy ready for a good days work.

Short Campaign Eyed by GOP Republicans Lay Strategy for Fight WASHINGTON, Nov. 13 '? Open campaigning by Garner-for-president boosters and Re publican discussion of a short, intensive drive for the presiden cy set the 1940 political ball roll ing today, ending the truce which prevailed during the neutrality debate. A prediction the Republican national committee would give serious consideration to limiting its major campaign to eight or nine weeks came from Senator McNary ot Oregon, the minority floor leader. Under such a plan, the presidential nominee and party orators probably would not begin their speechmaking until September. Senator Vandenbar (R..Mich.) a potential candidate for the presi dential nomination, has expressed the belief a rapid-fire campaign through September and October would be better than one started in July which might lag in late summer. The plan also would permit the Republicans to hold their national convention later than the custom mary June session, it they desire. There has been some talk of de laying the convention until the Democrats choose their nomi nees. An assertion Vice President Garner would be a democratic presidential candidate, no matter whether President Roosevelt might seek a third term, was made by E. R. Germany, director of the Garner forces. Garner is In the race to win said Germany, adding: "We have no interest in political trade." He disclosed organizations to support the vice president's candidacy were being formed In every state. Garner has been at his home in Uvalde, Tex., since the spe. cial session of congress adjourned He has made no public statement as to his candidacy, but the Dal as rvews said mat, Barring a change in plans, ha would : nounce later this month that he would accept the nomination.
