GASTRIC ULCER ** NEARLY COST ME
MY LIFE
•
The hours and duties of a milway worker lend to make him liable to stomach troublo. Mr. B., Hallway man, suffered from a gastric ulcer which, he says, "nourly cost me my He." He had X-rays, an opemtiou, and was strictly dieted for months, yet still his pali returned, his appetite falled, his work almost got beyond him,
Now read what he writes:
I decided to try Maclean Brand Stomach Powder and I nøver had the palu again. Now I can eat anything that comer along, but I always take your Powder after caling. I take it to work with me and am never without it."
If Maclean Brand Stomach Powder can work such wondera for Mr. B., mullering from gastric ulcer, how much more can it do for you, if your startlach' trouble has not yet reached that serious state Start now, with the original MACLEAN BRAND, Look for the aignature "ALEX. C. MACLEAN" on the carton
and bottle. Maclean Brand is never sold loose-only in bottles in cartons (powder of tablets).
If you have any difficulty is obtaining it from your local chemist or stom, write to Banker & Co., P.O. Box 530, Hong Kong.
