PAIN Tx1LLER---A CURE FOR DIPII-
THERIA.-Al interested, please read the
following extract from letter from Mrs. Ellen
d. Mason, wife Of Rev. Francis Mason,
Tounghoo, Birmah
My son was taken violently sick
with dphtheria, cold chills, burning fever and
sore throat. l counted one morning ten little
vesicles in his throat, very white, and his
tongue, towards the root, just like a water
| melon, full OF seeds; the remainder coated as
thick as knife.bladc: SO many children
have died around here, was afraid to call a
physician, and thought l would try your
Pain Killer for garglc, with small doses in
wardly. L did 80, and found tho garglo inya-
riabiy cut off tho veeicire, and he raised them
up, often covered with blood. He was taken
on Sunday; on Wednesday, his throat was
clear, and his tongue rapidly clearing off,
also used 1t as a iniment, with castor oil and
hartshorn, for his neck. 1t seemed to mo a
wonderful cule, and l can but wish it could be
who are losing so many children by this
! dreadful disease.

is the rational mode of procedure in cases OF
general debility and nervous prostration?
Docs not reason tell us that judicious stimula-
ton is required. To resort to violent purga-
ton in such case is as absurd as it would be
to bleed starving man. Yet it is done every
day. Yes, this stupid and unphilosophical
practice is continued in the teeth of the great
fact that physical weakness, with all the ner-
vous disturbances that accompany it, is more
certainly and rapidly relieved by HOSTEL
rEkS STOMACH BIrIERS than by any
other medicine at present known. 1t is true
that general debility is often attended with
torpldity or irregularity Of the bowels, and
t.iat this symptom must not be overlooked.
But while the discharge of the waste m after Of
the system ls expedited or regulated, its uigor
must he recruited. The BllIEhS do both
ihey combine aperient and antl-bilious pro-
pertlcs, with extraordinary tonic power Lven
while removing distractions from the bowels,
they tone and invigorate those organs
Through the stomach, upon which the great
vegetable specific acts directly, it gives a
healthy and permanent impetus to every en-
tcebled function. Digestion is facilitated, the
faltering circulation regulated the blood rein
forced with new accession of tho aimentary
principle, the nerves braced, and all the DOR
mant powers OF the system reused into healthy
action; not spasmodically, az would be the case
II mere stmulant were administered, but for
continuance. 1t is in this way that such ex-
traordinary changes are wrought in the cond-
ton OF the feeble, emaciated and nervous in
valids by the use of this wonderful corrective,
Alternative and tonic. Let common sense de-
eide between such preparation and a pros
trating cathartic supplemented by poison.
