Few men in Atlanta are better . known than Thomas W. Reynolds, popular salesman for the Star Mar ket, at No. 4 North Broad street.' In a recent statement Mr. Reynolds said: “Puratone I's wonderful. It almost made a brand-new man of me in a very short time. I had been going down hill about fifteen years, suffer ing with stomach trouble and rheu matism. I lost my appetite almost entirely and the little I forced down would upset my stomach and cause gas to form on my stomach and make me bloat terribly. Sometimes when | 1 went to the table I would turn ' deathly sick at the sight of food and I would have to leave the dining room. I was dreadfully nervous and got very little sleep at night. When I got out of bed in the morning I felt more tired than I did on going to bed the night before. I always had a mean taste in my mouth and my tongue was badly coated. I was ter ribly constipated and had tc take laxatives all the time. I felt weak and tired all the time and couldn’t take interest in anything. “she ir.eumatism got so bad that nearly every muscle in my body ach ed and I suffered terribly. I tried ■ all kinds of medicines and treatments, i but nothing seemed to help me. “Then 1 began to hear so many i good things about Pomeroy’s Pura tone that I decided to give it a trial. i It helped me from the very first few I doses. It soothed my stomach and ■ the first thing I knew I began to get' hungry. I started eating hearty I meals and was surprised to find that ' everything agreed with me and there : were no bad after effects, such as i gas forming, indigestion or pains in ' my stomach. I have taken three : bottles, and I’m not like the same ; mamnow. I have gained nine pounds : in weight and my strength has been , increased wonderfully. I can now; eat three big meals a day, every thing tastes good and there are no 1 I bad after effects. I don’t have that | tired feeling any more, am not ner- | vous like I was, and when I go to i bed at night I am soon asleep and I | don’t wake up until morning. I feel | rested and refreshed when I get up in . the mornings and am ready for a big ; day’s work. I am no longer consti- . pated and I haven’t that coated ton-| gue and mean taste in my mouth now.

The most wonderful thing of all is ! that the rheumatism has been over ■ come and I haven’t a pain about me. ; Puratone has been worth more than gold to me.’’ In commenting on the above state ment the Puratone man said: “Pura |tone is taking Atlanta by storm and |is daily making thousands of friends ;in this city and section. Puratone is I produced from a combination of 1 medicinal roots, barks, berries, herbs ; and fibre, which act directly on the ' stomach, liver and kidneys.
