diseases may Be caused by allowing the
bowels to become constipatcd and the system
to remain in a disordered condition., until
lhe disorder has time to develop itself. An
ounce OF prevention is worth a pound of cure,

advise all who are troubled with the COM
plants now observation-disclosures, indiges-
ton, disordered liver, want of appetite.

delay. Schenck's Mandrake Pills. We know
of no remedy so and decisive in its
action. II at once strikes at the root of the
disease and produces a healthy tone to the
system. People never need suffer from any
disease arising from q dlsordered condition
of the liver II they would take this excellent
of the malady. Families leaving home for
the summer months should take three or four
boxes OF these pills with them. They have
an almost instantaneous effect. They will
relieve the patient OF headache in one or two
hours. and will rapidly cleanse the liver Of

vent a bilious attack. They are sold by all
druggists.

is improbable to winter a light, weak

be examined for foul brood, and If such
