R. R. Betz, Toledo, Vice President
of the food chain.
Object of the move, Betz said, is
to “give better senice to our cus

Betz pointed out that the oper

Bluffton have been invited to par

We confidently feel that house
wives will find this plan working to
their advantage,” Betz explained.
“The complete personnel of our
Bluffton store will be on the job the
entire store week, resulting in the
most efficient customer senice of
which the store organization is cap
able.
“For instance, this should result
in less waiting, in fresher merchan

“Success of the plan depends,
however, on the cooperation of our

be essential if inconvenience is to be

in all stores combined amount to
only a small percentage of the week

“BLESSING ON THE DAY
I FOUND RHU-AID”-HER
RHEUMATIC PAINS END!
One lady recently took RHU-AID
three days and said afterward that
she never would have believed such
a “wonder medicine” existed. She
says she couldn’t raise her left arm
more than a few inches. Rheumatic
pains afflicted the muscles of her
shoulder and arm. She could hardly
move the finger^ on her left hand.
Now this lady’s rheumatic pains are
gone since she got RHU-AID and
says she can use her left arm as
well as her right, in fact, she says
she simply blesses the day she got
this medicine and she feels like an
altogether different woman.
RHU-AID is the new liquid form
ula containing rthree valuable med
ical ingredients. These Three Great
Medicines, all blended into one, go
right to the very cause of rheumatic
and neuritic ac^es and pains. Miser
able people sobn feel different all
over. So don’t go on suffering! Get
