TlVELED 15 YEARS
“For fifteen years 1 have otic
nothing but travel over the United
States, Canada, and Cuba in a
fruitless search for health. Three
weeks ago I began the Sargon treat
ment and today I am a well and
MRS. M. M. LINK
happy woman. That Sargon should
lestore me so quickly and so com
pletely after all these years of suf
fering and failure is marvelous and
I want my friends everywhere to
know about this wonderful medi
cine.
"Even the lightest meals wouin
cause me to suffer tortures fiom
indigestion, gas pains, and smoth
ering spells. 8ometlmes I would
just have to gasp for breath. Wer
•.ousness made my nights almost
sleepless. Rheumatism troubled me
a great deal, too, and my liver was
so badly out of order I had to toko
strong purgatives continually.
"I took treatments everywhere
without relief, and finally mads up
my mind to travel with the prisons
end live the rest of my days as com
fortable as possible. Had anyone
told me that any medicine would do
what Sargon has done for me I
could not have believed them. It
put my stomach in perfect condi
tion and drove the rheumatism
right out of my system, l eat my
th ing, am no longer nervous, and
sleep like a healthy child. I feel
strong and well all the time. Sar
gon Soft Mass Pills completely
overcame my liver troubles. They
ret gently yet thoroughly
"To enjoy such splendid health as
Sargon has given me is the great
est blessing In the world, and f feel
,t my duty to let other sufferers
know; about this wonderful treat
ment,"
This remarkable statement >vas
made recently by Mrs. M. M. Tint,
wealthy resident of 863 Tuxedo
Blvd., Webster Grove, Mo.
Sargon may be obtained In Shel
