years old, contracted the chills Au-
gust, 1877, on the Ohio river. No pre-
scription ever effected more than a
temporary suppression of the disease,
no tonics kept it off. But the use OF
two bottles of Hughes Tonic cured
her completely. She had no chill af-

wounds, sprains, overstraining,I ,Iketc.,
should always have close at hand a
bottle of PONDS EXTRACT. In near

it. For over thirty-1ive years it has
been in general use and stood the test
of public criticism and is to-day more
firmly established than ever in public
estimation and steadily increasing in

not regard it as a household necessity.
