ONE OF THE MOST UNACCOuNTABLE AND
DANGEROUS or RECENT DECEiTs
DISCOVERED AND Ex

There is some mysterious trouble
that is attacking nearly everyone in
the land with more or less violence, 1t
seems to steal into the body like a thief
in the night. Doctors cannot da-
gnose it. Scientists are puzzled by its
symptoms. 1t is, indeed, a modern
mystery. Like those severe and vague
maladies that attack horses and pros
trate nearly all the animals in the
land, this subtle trouble seems to men
ace mankind. Many of its victims
have pains about the chest and sides,
and sometimes in the back They feel
dull and sleepy the mouth has bad
taste, especially in the morning. "A
strange sticky slime collects about the
teeth. The appetite is poor There
is feeling like heavy load upon the
stomach sometimes faint all-gone
sensation is felt at the pit of the stom-
ach, which food does not satisfy. The
eyes grow sunken, the hands and feet
feel clammy AZ one time and hurt in.

Most of these symptoms are in turn
present. 1t is thought that nearly one
third of our population have this dis

medical men have almost wholly mis-

for one complaint +; some for another,
but nearly all have failed to reach the
seat of the disorder Indeed, many
physicians are afflicted with it them
selves. The experience of Dr. A. G.
Richards, residing at No. 46S fremont
street, Boston, is thus described by
himself
II had all those peculiar and pain

My sleep was refreshing. The color OF

Doctors and scientists often exhaust
their skill and the patient dies. They
try everything that has been used by,
or is known to, the profession, and
then fail. Even if they save the life it
is often after great and prolonged
agony. Where all this can be avoided
by precaution and care, how insane a
thing it is to endure such suffering
With a pure and palatable preparation
within reach, to neglect its use is sim
ply inexcusable.
