It's Our Business to Know All About Cars

It is just as reasonable for you to expect an automobile dealer to know more about cars than you do as it is for you to expect your doctor to know more about medicines.

This is a place where those engaged in the sale and service of automobiles keep fully informed about every phase of their busi- ness, to the end that the motoring public in the East Bay may benefit. In no other way can we live up to our constant respon- sibility for your satisfaction in the owner- ship of whatever you buy here.

And after all, satisfaction is what you really want, no matter what you buy.

CAUTION

Pay no money in advance to itinerant Directory Canvassers. We are led to mention this from the fact that certain parties have been fraudulently using our publications as specimens, and by that means collecting money in ad- vance. Before signing an order, see that it has the name of R. L. Polk & Co. printed thereon. We ask no payment until the work is delivered, and our solicitors have strict orders not to take payment for either advertising or subscriptions.

TRADE! You like to patronize those concerns who are in business to stay.

It's human to expect that such business establishments al- ways stand back of the wares they sell.

The advertising in this Directory is suggestive of the stabil- ity and permanency of the advertisers.

Frauds, fakes, get-rich-quicks and other schemers have little use for directory advertising. It lives too long.

The modern City Directory is a business institution. It oc- cupies a place peculiarly its own. It is as necessary to the progress and development of a city generally as anything naturally would be which deals with such a fundamental as the citizens themselves.

If you are not advertising your business in the Directory, may we explain how and why it will pay you?

FONG WAN'S BUSINESS ENTERPRISES IN OAK- LAND ARE CENTRALLY LOCATED WITHIN A RADIUS OF 3 BLOCKS

FONG WAN Eminently Successful Herbalist

I. THE FONG WAN HERB COMPANY, which imports its herbs direct from China and compounds them to meet individual needs.

II. THE OAKLAND EMPORIUM, a De- partment Store, has been recently reorganized and carries a stock of new goods for the thrifty shopper.

III. THE NEW SHANGHAI CAFE is a clean, quiet place in which the best of food is served at moderate prices. Its patronage con- sists chiefly of high class family trade.

The following testimonials verify the claim that marvelous results are obtained by taking the Fong Wan Herbs.

A Healthy Stomach Insures Enjoyment of Life

Mr. O. Knuth of Oakland declares that after 7 Doctors and 5 Stomach Specialists had failed, Fong Wan afforded him permanent relief. His testimonial reads:

"For years I took treatment for Stomach Ulcers, having had seven doctors and five stomach specialists, but experienced no beneficial results. I suffered continuously, more or less. Nevertheless, by taking the Fong Wan Herbs I gained permanent relief. I have been free from pain for the past nine years and can eat what I wish without bad effects. O. KNUTH. 1501 29th Ave., Oakland, California."

Terrible Suffering from Stomach Trouble Relieved by the Fong Wan Herbs

Oakland, May 31, 1929.

For a long time I suffered from Stomach Trouble on and off, but about two months ago the pain hecame so severe that I tossed about day and night without a minute's rest or cessation of agony. I did not believe that I should be alive at this time. Everything I ate was thrown right up. My bowels failed to function even when I took the strongest physics. I was so weakened that I did not dare to submit to an operation.

After having sought fruitlessly to obtain relief by medical aid, I came to Fong Wan. Although I did not note any improvement at the beginning. I continued with the herbs and was rewarded hy being completely restored to health. I am certainly glad to testify . that Fong Wan saved my life when I was at death's door.

W. J. PATTERSON. 1706 68th Ave., Oakland, Calif. Phone TRinidad 2016.

People who wish to learn more about Fong Wan's knowledge of herbs and methods of healing should get his new book free at his office or mailed upon receipt of 10c postage within the first zone or 13c for more distant zones.
