N. C, gratefully writes us as follows:
1 was in a most wretched condi

and would svrdl and bloat in a most
distressing way. When I began
using Stella-Vitae I weighed 108
pounds. Now I weigh 135. I am
more thankful than 1 can ever tell
you for the rarest good this won
derful medicine has done rne."
Mrs Russell was at that critical
period, the "chanpe," and her flncere
gratitude for the blessed relief will be
understood and appreciated by every
woman who reads her letter.
SteCa-Vitae has proved a boon to

DR. PAUL
''Not long ago I had a talk with
Wilmington," said Dr. Paul Thorp.
the system after it has had some terrible or unusual strain put upon it, such aa
has lieen caused, let us say, by the influenza epidemic.
Rev. Dr. Hobbs said: "Two years
to suffer with my heart because of the loss
tors told me a torpid liver and kidney trouble had followed this weakness.
" My whole system was out of order. What little I could eat would not agrea
with me. I got so nervous I could not sleep over two hours. 1 would have pains
in my head, also.
"I could not get relief from the medicines I had taken and I felt like giv
ing up hope of ever seeing a well day again. But while I was in Raleigh I heard of
a medicine that appealed to me because I knew just what was in it and what it
ought to do for my case.
WAS SAFE AND SENSIBLE.
"This medicine was Peplax. The first few doses relieved me and after finish
ing the first bottle I felt so satisfied I was at lat on the right track that I bought
five bottles more. I can truthfully say that this new I'eplax made nip feel like
a new man. It built me up .just as I needed. I don't lielieve I ever felt lietter in
my life tlion I do now."
"Rev. Hobbs is like most people. " continued Dr. Thorp. "When they learn
the fine old. time tried Nature remedies that have been combined in Peplax they
say, 'Here is the medicine I have lieen looking for.' N'othing secret or mysteri
ous about it. It is not prepared for one weak organ alone, but for the whole di
gestive tract. The Nature remedies used in I'eplax are each famous for one spe
cial curative power and all have been so combined that each keeps all its own
rood effect while, at the same time, all act together. That is what makes Peplax
the ideal system purifier and builder Rev. Hobbs found it to be.
EIGHT FAMOUS REMEDIES.
'As soon as i ne learns the Peplax Nature remedies they understand its mer
it, tor those remedies are:
"Ceiitirni root, the lines old stomas
niper Berries to cleans' the kidneys and
irritation and remove the forei.Mi mucus
tines; Chinese Rhubarb root to iimgoiate
nere toni.-; dandelion root, most famous
Jamaica Cinger root, which is the snecial
the stomach and nourish the s'otna. h blood
know ii of all Id'v.il purifiers.
"All that N'ntnre wants is :i c'-ance and this chance Peplax is designed to
give. With the system once purified, toned up and filled with vigor. Nature can
be .'(Minted on to do the rest. However, because of its flesh building value, men
and women who do not wish to gain Hesh should not take Peplax. There are a
few women who would rather Is1 exceedingly slender than exceedingly henlthy. So
we say to these persons so they will not lie disappointed. 'Don't take I'eplax.'
Peplax. this safe, sensible Nature remedy that Dr. Thorp tells about, is spe
cially explained in Gastonia at Kennedy's Drug Store and is sold by the leading
druggists everywhere. If your druggist can 't supply you just write to the Ken
nedy Drug Store. Gastonia.
