HOT, FIERY GAS
Sloniticli Like \ Furnace
A Williamston man said recent
ly that his stomach used to burn
like a “gas t'acton !" That is, when
I he ate a meal it seemed to turn
right into hot gas. He was always
bloated, had gas |>ains daih But
now this man says he is FREE of
STOMACH GAS and he says the
change is due to taking CERTA
VIN. His meals agree with him.
CERTA-VIN is a new formula
Taken before meals it works with
your food, expels the gas, and thus
you get the fullest good out of
I your meals. It contains Ten Great
I Herbs, plus vitamin H and Iron,
j Besides relieving gas it also en
i i iehes the blood (with iron) and
i makes stronger nerves (with vita
min li.) Miserable people soon
feel hettei all ovei So don't go
