"NO OPERATION
FOR ME" SAYS
MRS. BENDER
Here Is an astounding letter from
Mrs. .Mamie. Bender of Patterson,
X. J., ami those who suffer from
stubborn indigestion or stomach
agony, distress or misery should
read every word of it. -
Here it is: "Dear Sirs: Just a
word of good will to you in -regard
to your Litre's Mentha Pepsin. 1
have been using your medicine for
couple of years, in fact. I read
your advertisement just in the nick
of iiitie. .
"I had been advised to-undergo
an operation for adhesions and ul
cers of the stomauh and was all
fcrl'eady to go to the hospital but usk
'cd for it two weeks stay. I went to
the drug store and bought a buttle
of Dure's .Mentha Pepsin and,
thanks be to God on high. 1 am still,
without that much appointed, op
eration. "Vou can print f'his if you wish
and anyone wanting my advice I
will gladly give it to them ns 1
cannot praise your medicine high
enough. Yours truly. 'Mrs. Mamie
Bender, R. F. D. No. 1, Faterson,
X. J."
Dare's Mentha Pepsin is a" men
tholated pepsin elixir with carmin
atives and is real pepsin, nature's
own remedy for indigestion and
many other stomach ills.
It is sold by Heath's Drug Store
and live druggists everywhere in
America with the distinct under
standing that it will help you more
than anything you ever used or

the time of her visit, having gone
to that country under tho. auspi

Among the many humorous, cus

speaker during her talk, were the
greetings and trends of Chinese
conversation. Upon meeting any
