A Sure TEsT.-After all, Success is the
best test OF merit. In nine cases out OF
ten, the race is won by those who de-
serre to win it. The energetic man pros
pes; the worthy flourish; only the idle
and worthless fail. Consequently, if we
find an article in general demand, it is a
prmd tacie evidence that the article
has qualities which justly render it
popular. Such is pre.eminently the
case in the celebrated preparation known
throughout the world as HuBBEI's
GOLDEN BIrTEEs. Go where you will,
Won will find Hubbel before You, with

the most healthful beverages ever offer

beneficial. In this case, truly success
