No people suffer so much from
physical disabilities as those
whose business requires little or
n# muscular exertion. The lack

ac he. To prevent this take Sim¬
mons Liver Regulator it keeps
the liver active and makes one’s
condition as comfortable as those
who have much exercise.

I have berries, grapes and ponchos, a year
old, fresh as when picked. 1 use the Califor¬
nia Cold process, do not heat or seal the
fruit, just put it up cold, keens perfectly
fresh and costs almost nothing; can put up a
bushel in ten minutes. 1 ast week I so d di¬
rections to over 130 families; any one will
lan a dollar for direct ous when they see the
beautiful samples of fruit. As there are ma¬
ny people poor like myself, I consider it my
duty to >dvo my experience to such, and feel
confident anyone can make oue or two hun
dreddollars round home in a few days. I
will mail sampleot fruit and complete

cost of the samples, postaire, etc., to me.
