Reader,


Remember tia. you have often been told
of the depressing influence Of this climate on
the human ~ stem. especially so in the spring
aud sunmer months. You then,feel stupid,
relaxed and very much weakened. Now,
under such influences, the most casual OBJ
server will plain" see that a stimu'ant is
indicated, is absolutely needed; consC queat y,
there is great amount of qunine used in
this State, and in Mexico the free use of red
pepper is resortel to as a stimulaut Now,
we believe the best remedy to counleract the
distressing malady referred to is the mode
rate use of pure whisky. This can be found
absolutely .puro, fully guaranteed in the
XXXX Robertson County, or widely known
as Burnhanl's XXXX. Try this as basis, if
you nj ed btters; use little fluid extrac of
Leptandrin, wild cherry tree bark, dogwood
and rhuborb, eithe., as you may like, or some
of all. If you prefer; you may then expect to
