SAMARITAN NERVINE

Cures Alcoholism, Drunkenness and the habit Of
Opium Eating. These degrading habits ere by
far the worst evils that have ever befallen suffer
ing humanity. Thousands die annually from
these noxious drugs. The drunkArd drinks
liquor not because he likes 1t, but for the pleas.
ure Of drinking and treating his friends, little
thinking that he is on his road 10 ruin. Like
the Opium Eater, he first uses the drug in s1lall
quantities as harmless antidote The soothing
influence Of the drug takes strong hold upon its
victim, leading him on to his own destruction.
The habits of Opium Eating and Liquor Drink
Ing are precisely what eating is TO alimentiye-
ness, as over-eating first infames the stomach,
which redoubles Its cravings until II paralyzes
both the stomach and appetite. Soevery drink Of
liquor or dose Of opium, instead Of satisfying,
only adds TO its fierce fires, until 1t consumes
the vital force and then ITSELF Like the glutton-
GUS tape-worm, 1t cries "Giye, give, give " but
never enough until its own fapacity deyUurs
itself. Samaritan Nervine gives instant relief
in all such cases 1t produces sleep, Quiets the
nerves, builds up the nervous system, and re-
stores body and mind TO healthy condition.

A SENSATIONAL report goes out that
the blazing comet which floats so
sweetly in the sky early in the morn
ing will return next year and fall into
the sun, and that the heat caused 10y
the collision will be so great rs to de-
stroy all living things on the earth.
No doubt some good people will COM
mence to pack theiy baggage for trip
to another world, as soon as they learn
Of the approaching smash up; but by
far the greater number will be content
with the opinion of the mathemati-
clans that the comet of 1852 Is not the
comet of 1880, and there Is no proof Of
any narrowing of its orbit, and hence
Il cannot return next year to enter
into q combat with the sun.
