It surely does the work. "Do you know I did not know a well day. A sluggish liver had poisoned my system. My stomach was in a bad way and my food did me no good. I always had heartburn after eating, and many times after eating gas would press .against my heart and cause bad pains. "I felt tired out all the time, had no life about me. When the time would come to get up 1 felt that I would just have to have more rest, and would have to force myself to rise. I was troubled with constipa tion and a catarrhal condition, and really all these things had me going. "I heard a lot about Sanpan, but was a little leary, however. I kept reading the daily reports of it in the papers, and made up my mind to try it, and say, it was just won derful the way that medicine did take hold, and in a short time it drove all my troubles away, and I am fine as a fiddle —Yes, indeed, I surely have a good word for San pan. It is great." Sanpan is now being Introduced at Keller's Drug Store, 405 Market street, Harrisburg, where the Sanpan man is explaining Its merits to the people.
