eff ort of Leon Trotsky,, former Bolsheviki Foreign

Mantone Makes
Him Millionaire
IF HEALTH IS WEALTH, FOR HE
HAS GAINED 20 POUNDS
SINCE TAKING IT.
If health is wealth J. F. Batts has
risen from a minus quantity to a mil
lionaire in only a few weeks time
through the use of Mantone.
Before taking Mantone Mr. Batts,
who is a weJl known former of Stan
tonsburg, was "down and out" physi
cally. He had indigestion, his- weight
was down to 128 pounds, he had pains
in his back and his strength and energy
were at low ebb.
Then Mr. Batts knew what Mantone
did for the best people in his town and,
of course, he started on it. What Man
tone did for him is told in his own
words :
"In three weeks time my weight In
creased from 128 pounds to 148 pounds.
My indigestion has been helped wonder
fully. Now I can eat any food set be
fore me, even the greasiest kind of
pork. For the first time in months I
am enjoying sweep potatoes, eggs,
sweets, meats and other foods. My
bowels are in first class shape. The
pains have left my back and can now
walk with anybody and stoop over
and lace my shoes. I sleep sound every
night from 9 o'clock until 5 in the morn
ing," he ended.
What Mantone did for Mr. Batts it
can do for any other man or woman
who is not a victim of incurable di
seases. If it don't, then you get your
money back.

He Has Tried This Method For Twenty-
Five Years And Now Says That For
Purposes Of Rest A Horizontal Posi
tion In Bed Beats Draping The Body
Over A Chair.
There never has been but one satis
factory manner discovered for sleep
ing, and that is with the body in a hori
zontal position in a bed, and any effort
to change this method defeats one of
natures most important purposes.
One of Raleigh's well known citiaens,
Mr. J. P. Pool, 708 Hargett St., stfys
that he has been forced to spend many
nights trying to sleep on a chair. Mr.
Pool says :
"I could not sleep lying flat on my
back and had to get up ;and try to
sleep sitting in a chair. This was due
to severe case of liver and stomach
trouble, from which I had suffered for
twenty-five years. I was also unable to
eat meat and suffered intense pains in
my shoulder, and at times these pains
were so severe that I would fall over.
"My son recently gave me a bottle
of Peplac and now, for the first time in
twenty-five years, I can sleep peaceful
ly in bed, free from pain. I can eat
meat and vegetables three times a day.
I am sixty-four years old, but Peplac
has made a new man of me. Now, in
addition to looking after my grocery
business, I can plow and am feeling fine
and happy."
The Merits of this Great Constructive
Tonic will be1 gladly explained at the
Greenville Drug Company where it is
recommended and sold.
Seed Scarcity
Is Big Problem
GARDENERS WARNED TO PUR
CHASE ONLY WHAT SEEDS
ARE NEEDED.
While it is not generally known, there
is quite a shortage of all seeds for
planting. This is particularly so with
vegetable seed. Quite a number of
people who have had no experienc in
planting ad gardening are trying to
use up all the seed they can to get a
few vegetables started.
Director B. W. Kilgore of the Agri
cultural Extension Service of the State
College and Department of Agicultiire
received a letter the other day from
Washington asking him to please call it
to the attention of every "would-be"
gardeer that no more seed should be
bought than is actually required, be
cause if some people buy more than
they need others will not be able to
get what they actually need. '
This waste of seed is being done in
several differene ways. Many garden
ers seem to think that a garden spot
needs no sunshine, and are putting in
good seeds which germinates but never
produce vegetables. No land should

ENTRAIN FOR CAMP JACKSON
be planted which is not suitable to
vegetable production.
Since the supply of seed is low, there
is a dendency on the part of some deal
ers to speculate, somewhat. This is
especially to be deprecated in this hour
of need, and if it is participated in by
dealers who have a Federal license for
the conduct of their business they will
be dealt with accordingly, says an an
nouncement from the Food Administra
tion to Director Kilgore recently. The
wholesale dealers and those recall deal
ers who are doing an annual business
of $100,000 or over who handle peas,
beans, cotton seed and corn are now
operating under 'license from the Food
Administration.
Several seed growers associations are
now voluntarily handling their seed
with regard to public welfare by charg
ing only a reasonable price for them,
and such associations as these are
greatly to be commended, states fthf
anouncement.
