Human Endurance.

= Is an acknowledged fact that man
possesses the power Of endurance to .
greater degree than any Of the lower
animals. Professional pedestrians have
been known to walk an average OF one
hundred miles per day for six consecu-
tive days, which would be wonderful
accomplishment for . horse, and sur
pass all the known records of that use
full animal. OF course man possessing
the power of endurance to its fullest
extent must be in perfect health. One
who is troubled with weak urinary and
digestive organs whose pulse is frreg1
lar, whose heart palpitates, and who
feels q sense of burdensome fatigue
after the least exertion, would be very
unwise to compete In pedestrian
contest. Should you suffer from
want Of endurance, you can regain TO
bust health and strength by using DR..
