GOLDEN SEAL BITTERS are the
great blood purifier, liver and kidney rem
edy and life-giving principle, a perfect
renovator and invigorator of the system,
carrying away all poisonous matter and
restoring the blood to healthy condition,
enriching it, refreshing and invigorating
both mind and body. They are easy OF
administration, prompt in their action,
certain in their results, safe and reliable in
all forms Of disease. Every moment Of our
lives, every part of our bodies, is wearing
out and is being built up anew. This work
is accomplished by the blood. The blood,
if pure, makes the entire circuit of the
body every seven minutes. But if it be-
comes weak or vitiated and does not perform
its work properly the system is actually
poisoned by the wom-out matter clogging
the vital organs instead of leaving the body,
Cleanse the blood whenever you find its inn
purities bursting through the skin in
pimples, eruptions, sores, etc. Keep the
liver in order, the blood pure, health of the
system will follow. Take GOLDEN SEAL

that il was un-Christian 1t remains to be

The war cloud in the east is diminishing
in magnitude, and present indications are
that there will be no conflict between the
British and Russian governments, for time
at least. The lion and the bear have in
dulged in growl at each other, which has
somewhat eased their feelings, and they will
probably retire to their lairs again. The
real trath appears to be that neither OF them
is spelling for brush with the other.
