and returned again to this country.
Finally | went to New Orleans, be-
ing told that the French doctors I'M
derstoed the treatment of NY case

Alas, however, after taking more
mercury and potassium from them,

large ulcers all oyer my body and

Yery Poor ECONOMY.

Some people make a business of
cheating themselves, either by eat
ing very mean and cheap food, or
else by eating too small a quantity
of good food. Either way is as bad
policy as 1t would be to buy a coffin
instead of suit of good clothes,
just because the coffin would cost
less. Poor diet means impoverished
blood; and that means misery.

DIR. G. r DUNCAN'S
LIVER AND kidney MEDICINE,

The great superiority, Of this medicine over
all other Liver Medicines, consists in the com
bination Of those vegetable compounds, which
possess the wonderful powers of arousing all
the secretions of the whole human system TO a
natural aud healthy action. 1t acts upon the
liver directly and at the same time sets up a
proper secretion OF those glands situated in the
stomach and bowels. 1t is locking up of the
secretions of these glands that brings on dys-
pepsia, indigestion, sour stomach. heart burn,
palpitation OF the heart, vertigo or swimming
Of the head, sick or nervous headache, consti-
patton of the bowels accompanied at the same
time with pains in the shoulders, back, sides
limbs. To treat the above symptoms intelli-
gently and successfully, as in all other cases,
you must use the medicine, that strikes at and
removes the causes from the system that pro-
duce and bring disease. This Is efectually
done with DR.. Duncan's Liver and Kidney
Medicine. Price rs cents.

A traveller recently found himself
in an Armenian church at Constan-

ing hym with closed eyes and
profound feeling, to simple mclo-

affected as to shed tears while they
sang. The stranger asked his guide
what the words were and found them
to be an Armenian translation OF

GENTLEMEN-I have been afflicted
with a malignant type Of chills and
fever for nearly three (3) years, and
during that time tried every "chill
remedy known in this country with
out the least visable effect whatever.
As last resort my physicians gave
me solutions Of arsenic" until /
could not endure the poison longer.
Finally my son-in-law, r. n. Lusby,
of Little Rock, brought me out a
dose of your wonderful and never
failing "Satanta," and as my chill
made its appearance, | took ''two

last chill have ever had; in fact, !
have not even had a symptom of any

and am now in tip top fix. So,
thanks to the great "Satanta."

RITTER THAN OUININE.

DIR. Duncan's Chill Tonic is the
best chill cure known. 1t is much bet
ter than quinine or any other chill ton
ic now on the market, because it is a
fine blood tonic combined with the
most powerful antiperiodics, or chill
cure known. 1t is combined with Iron
which tones and builds up the blood
and the whole system, while it breaks
up the chill. Hence the chills do not
return, because the system is much
stouter and healthier thanwhen broken
with quinine. Use it in all forms OF
malarial fever as you would quinine.
