Mrs L M Fetherston of Chicago spoke to the Waterloo Woman's Club and the Iowa Dairy Council about malnutrition in schools. She described Skinnay as a malnourished youth and warned that one third of schoolchildren are undernourished.
An advertisement urges use of Marshroot No. 77 from Dr Carey for kidney and bladder symptoms such as frequent urination pain backache and sediment. It claims kidney disease can be halted and promises money back if no benefit, through Henderson Drug Co and local druggists.
An old advertisement urges readers with any rupture to request a free trial of a stimulating topical application by mail order. It claims the product tightens muscles, closes openings without surgery, and eliminates the need for supports or trusses, appealing to those with small or large ruptures and even painless cases.
The notice offers a free sample treatment for rupture from Rice Inc located at 1061 Main St Adams New York. It invites readers to request an entirely free stimulating application sample by mail.
Mrs. Fetherston described how poorer neighborhoods feed only plain foods and healthier children arise from simple diets. She cited two to five year olds running households, where desires are met at the expense of personal welfare. A stereopticon display illustrated malnutrition and improvements after supervised proper nutrition. She travels to Mason City today as part of a 12 city Iowa tour led by the Iowa Dairy council with W. W. Wentworth coordinating.
An advertisement touts Outgro as a harmless antiseptic that, applied around an ingrown nail, reduces inflammation and pain. It claims the tender skin thickens and the nail grows outward within hours, and notes the product is manufactured for chiropodists but sold to the public in a drug store.
Mrs. Mary E. Redington of Waterloo says Trutona eased years of rheumatic pain and back troubles after starting on the medicine.
